    Release RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.43129

    Sorry @Squall Leonhart for misunderstanding you, I thought you were talking about the firmware. Also thank you @RainGater96 for setting me straight. As @RMerlin wrote, the RT-AC68 is still one of their most popular devices. My guess for why they are coming out with a Version 4 (presumably based...

    Release RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.43129

    Because the last firmware before 3.0.0.4.386.43129 was listed as a "Beta Version" firmware, listed as a "quick fix"? See: Therefore, 3.0.0.4.386.43129 is the first "release" firmware fixing the vulnerabilities listed.

    Weird problem after firmware upgrade - AC1900P

    This is indeed quite worrying. A quick search did not turn up any other reports of people unable to load a configuration saved with the same firmware version. Is it possible you previously did another major firmware upgrade (say from 384 to 385) without doing a factory reset? Or from Merlin to...

    Weird problem after firmware upgrade - AC1900P

    It seems to me that your config file is in one of the obfuscated formats. If you're not concerned for the privacy of any of the information in the config file, you can try an online obfuscation decoder here: https://alex.wittig.name/en/90Software/80Asus%20Decoder/ Or you can download and run...

    Weird problem after firmware upgrade - AC1900P

    I think that even if the attempt to restore the config failed, some of the settings may have been restored. I therefore think it is worthwhile to try a factory reset and then to manually set the necessary configuration options. As you wrote your configuration isn't that complex, it seems a...

    Weird problem after firmware upgrade - AC1900P

    If you upgrade to a new major version of the firmware for which a factory reset is called for, and you then restore the config from a file that was saved using a previous firmware version, you basically "undo" the factory reset. The factory reset is meant to put default values as appropriate for...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.40558 (05-Nov-2020)

    Interesting. If one clicks on that link, one receives instructions how to download new firmware for the T-Mobile AC1900. The last step literally states: "You can download these files from http://www.asus.com/support", thereby providing explicit permission to download firmware from the Asus...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.40558 (05-Nov-2020)

    If you click on "Guest Network" on the left, you should see a screen similar to this screen: Under the header 2.4GHz you should have three buttons, and under the header 5GHz you should have three more buttons. The first column from the left is for Guest Network 1, which, according to this...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.40558 (05-Nov-2020)

    Hello all, Just registered here to update this thread with my findings after upgrading to firmware 3.0.0.4.386_40558: A bit of background: I've got 3 Asus RT-AC68 routers (all are original retail Asus routers bought in their box). All routers are on firmware 3.0.0.4.385_20633. One is the main...
