    Advice on Merlin version

    Thanks Merlin! I already tried different cables and it didn't help, only moving the connection to the switch helped. I'll try those versions. Thanks for the summary of expectations!

    Advice on Merlin version

    I've been running Merlin 3.0.0.3.178.15 on my RT-N55U for quite a while now and it's been pretty good, but I recently ran into problems with the built-in ethernet switch when I added MoCa (Motorola SBM-1000 adapter pair) to my home network and I'm wondering: - if this might be tickling a known...

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    Thanks Roger. I agree that this isn't really in Merlin's domain. I was hoping that it might be just a simple fix for an existing mechanism that was broken (without having examined the web page source myself so it was just a guess). I simply mentioned it in case it was some low-hanging fruit...

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    And, now that I got the thank you out of the way, I have a nit with the stock firmware that also affects the Merlin builds that I'm hoping can be easily fixed. I'm a fan of manual DHCP reservations (administered centrally through the router's reservation system rather than hard-coding the...

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    Sorry for that last really long post without saying a grand "THANK YOU" for putting out this firmware. I was getting really annoyed at a dozen or so little bugs in the official firmware that they manage to let slide release after release, so this was a breath of fresh air (and the first time in...

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    I did a search and didn't see anything on this, so I'll pass along an experience I had with this firmware in case it helps someone else. I flashed the firmware from the official 178 and when I started back up I couldn't log in to the router to set it up - I kept getting the "must logout...

    Firmware .108 What are you finding?

    Hi Roger, I'm not sure where you are seeing this bridge IP address hot link, but in my case I simply type the known IP address in my browser window and I'm there - I don't have to go finding where its hotlink might live. Also, web services is one reason to need their IP addresses, but...

    ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router Reviewed

    And on .102 they have obsolete rules for DST. The end date is set for the 2nd Sunday of October, but the US changed it to the 1st Sunday of November in 2005 (not sure if they have different rules based on location, but I'm clearly set to a North American time zone and both the US and Canada...

    Firmware .108 What are you finding?

    For most settings I wouldn't mind doing this, but unfortunately the one setting I tend to make is to reserve specific IP addresses for all of my devices (not all of them need it, but a surprising number of them have built-in web services that I like to access for various reasons, so I simply...
