    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.4 is now available

    Dirty upgrade of main router and mesh node (both 386.3_2) a few hours ago - smooth as ever. Rebooted both after about an hour and running fine.

    Signature update failed.

    No sir, I do not want a badge of honor. I've been using Asus routers for 7 years and running Merlin for the last 3 of those. I have never had this happen to me personally before. Just trying to be helpful.

    AX86U first time use questions

    @Tech9 - I can't tell whether you're saying "don't use" the 160Mhz channel for 5 Ghz, or use it. If it's don't use, why not?

    new RT-AC86U, which firmware should I install?

    If I were you, I'd stick with Asus stock firmware for about a week or so, maybe ... While you're running stable, read, read and read this forum. An excellent starting point is https://www.snbforums.com/members/l-ld.24423/#about. (Don't make any changes yet, though) If all that is too much for...

    Need to replace my AC68-U - what router is recommended for Merlin's excellent firmware these days?

    Had mine for about the same amount of time. When she said goodbye as my main router, I went with RT-AX86U. It's a fine machine.

    Private Internet Access - Port Forwarding

    @Weggy - been using AirVPN for quite some time now - no issues, although I don't use port forwarding. I trust them more than anybody I've tried. Read up about them and peruse their forums - I think you'll like them. https://airvpn.org/aboutus/ https://airvpn.org/privacy/

    Solved Generate Site Map?

    PLEASE IGNORE - I think it was a laptop issue. __________________________________________ Not really what happened here, except a power outage. I've tried restarting GUI, rebooting, uninstalling, reinstalling - all to no avail. Any ideas? festus

    Would there be any interest if I added integrations to my addons, e.g. healthcheck.io, conditional notifications (e.g. email, Discord webhook)?

    Not really at this point, unless I could turn them all off. I don't have any thing that would go wrong that would require my immediate attention. I don't support anybody except my honey and I.
