    RT-AC87U trying to upgrade from RT-AC87U_380.66_4 to RT-AC87U_380.66_6, doesn't "stick"

    BTW, does anyone have any opinion as to why this router is such a, for lack of a better term, terd. I paid like $260 for this router, the last Asus router I owned was an Asus WL-500GP, which was a great router. I have to be honest, I really have had nothing but trouble with this one. The DD-WRT...

    RT-AC87U trying to upgrade from RT-AC87U_380.66_4 to RT-AC87U_380.66_6, doesn't "stick"

    I actually do not run any adblocking on this router. This is not my principle router, I run an intel atom d525 with pfSense as my principle router, and that's where I have my p2p blocklists etc.. Thanks for the tip, though.

    RT-AC87U trying to upgrade from RT-AC87U_380.66_4 to RT-AC87U_380.66_6, doesn't "stick"

    I ended up going with a try on this method, and it worked! Considering that, I would have to say the reboot would have worked as well. So thanks everyone, it's upgraded now. I just started messing around with download master and plugged a couple drives into the router recently, I had no idea the...

    RT-AC87U trying to upgrade from RT-AC87U_380.66_4 to RT-AC87U_380.66_6, doesn't "stick"

    I haven't checked, I've got a little one running around right now but as soon as he takes a nap I'm going to give it another go. I don't believe I followed Sanna1967's instructions exactly. This time, I will unplug all usb devices, then reboot, then flash. Will report back.

    RT-AC87U trying to upgrade from RT-AC87U_380.66_4 to RT-AC87U_380.66_6, doesn't "stick"

    Was hoping, just tried that, still at 380.66_4. I will try the whole process again in a bit here to see if I do it all at once I guess. It's been several hours since I flashed the firmware and rebooted at this point.

    RT-AC87U trying to upgrade from RT-AC87U_380.66_4 to RT-AC87U_380.66_6, doesn't "stick"

    I've tried three times now to apply the latest update to my RT-AC87U, I follow the same update steps I always have, I download the firmware, unzip it, then upload the trx to the router and let it do it's thing. Then I manually reboot it as instructed, but, for some reason, with this update, it's...

    [Feature Request] Disable WAN/Assign WAN port to switch

    Wow, I never realized this. Running the latest stable build of Merlin, when I set the router to AP mode it looks like the WAN port is automatically joined to the switch. I don't see any option to assign WAN port to switch, but plugging into the WAN port directly from my other switch appears to...

    [Feature Request] Disable WAN/Assign WAN port to switch

    Hello, just started using AsusWRT Merlin and I have to say good job! Seems to perform much better than the stock firmware on my RT-AC87U. I am hoping you can steer me in the right direction to handle a feature request. I would like the ability to disable the WAN port and assign the WAN port to...

    Hello all, new, just introducing myself

    Greetings, I came to the forum because I am the not-so-proud owner of an RT-AC87U. Just thought I would throw out a quick introduction, doesn't look like it's required but I look at it as a good general practice when joining a new forum. Look forward to posting and hopefully helping some others!
