    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    I just went from Merlin 380.63 to this fork V33E7 on my RT-N66U. I was using entware, and had asterisk and other things running on the router, but I moved that stuff to a raspberry pi, and I'm trying to keep the router as plain as possible (and hopefully, as stable as possible). I had hoped to...

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    No, I'm scared to try the mac cloning. With the changes I put in init-start, it's working ok now, though. It's a work-around, but it seems to be good enough. If I turn both the fiber modem and router off, and then turn them back on, there's no problems, either. It only seems to get messy...

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    For what it's worth, my DHCP query frequency is already set to Aggressive mode (and I tried switching it back and forth), but it doesn't seem to make any difference in my setup.

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    I think I've got the work-around working now. I put it in /jffs/scripts/init-start since having it in wan-start caused it to re-trigger itself. I added this to init-start: sleep 40 logger "init-start: Running" if ! ping -c1 -W3 8.8.8.8 then if ! ping -c1 -W3 8.8.4.4 then logger...

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    Disabling the wanduck (setting "Wan: Use DNS probes to determine if WAN is up" to No), didn't help. When I reboot the router I still get the DHCP error. So after rebooting the router, I manually did the command: service "restart_wan_if $(nvram get wan_primary)" And it started the WAN...

    Thanks. If disabling the wanduck doesn't fix it, I'll probably do something like this.

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    The Fiberhome unit they gave me is configured for router mode by default, and almost everything is locked down. I can turn the radios on and off, change the SSID and wifi password, and that's about it. Anything else has to be changed by the ISP remotely. They told me they're not allowed to...

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    I just changed the setting under Tools / Other Settings "Wan: Use DNS probes to determine if WAN is up (default: Yes)" It was set to Yes and I changed it to No. I'll try rebooting it tomorrow to see if that fixed it. Fingers crossed.

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    The WAN is a dynamic IP and it uses DHCP (WAN connection type set to Automatic IP). This is PLDT FIBR service (the big phone company in the Philippines).

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    Thanks. I don't have an NTD -- the fiber is run inside my house and connects to the ONT in my home office. This ONT has a router and VoIP phone ports and everything built into it. It was extremely difficult and took a long time to get the ISP to put it in bridge mode. I'm hesitant to mess...

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function properly.

    I have an Asus RT-N66U running the latest Merlin firmware. And I just recently switched from DSL to Fiber service. The ONT is a Fiberhome model (with the ISP's custom firmware), and it's mostly locked-down. When I reboot the router, I get this error on the Network Map page of the Asus...

    Getting WAN IP in a script

    Thanks, it looks like wan0_ipaddr is working. #!/bin/sh WANIP=$(nvram get wan0_ipaddr) echo $WANIP wan_ipaddr returns something different. Maybe the previous or an old WAN IP address.

    Getting WAN IP in a script

    I used to use Tomato firmware, and I have scripts that use the WAN IP. I could get it like this: #!/bin/sh WANIP=$(nvram get wan_ipaddr) echo $WANIP Now I've updated my router (an Asus RT-N66U) to use Asuswrt-Merlin firmware, and I guess it doesn't work the same way, since the above code...
