    Adaptive QoS and HW acceleration

    Given that they never fixed the AX-86U, i wouldn't have hopes here. I haven't even bothered to check if the AX6000 is any better - i don't trust ASUS here, at this point.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.9 Beta is now available

    Sorry - total brain fart here in that I was expecting this to be the 3006 alpha moving to beta - not the 388 branch. Jeez.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.9 Beta is now available

    Not seeing AX6000 in either download mount - am i missing something?

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.8_4 is now available

    Let's show @RMerlin some love for patching multiple models before Asus!

    Looking for feedback: Anyone considering AiCloud important to them?

    I would have to think the venn diagram of people sophisticated enough to use 3rd-party firmware, and those who use a training-wheels type "cloud" service, has to be exceedingly small.

    Crystal ball - aka which router is likely gonna make it for a while

    Forgot the air gapping risers.

    What became of your TM-AC1900?

    AI Mesh node in an unattached garage forever - no issues, but band movements have relegated it to spare use. It makes one nice WIFI NIC for a device without WiFi, when needed.

    Asus Rog Gt-Ax6000

    "Code" and "GPL" are not the same - @Tech9 is correct here.

    News RT-AC68U End of Life Announced by Asus

    Me too. Owned one. It was a piece of junk that dropped WiFi repeatedly. I lost it to a lightning strike, and replaced it with an AX86S, which is better in every way.

    Comcast email - RT-AX86U Pro - ASUS 3.0.0.6.102_34314 works, Merlin 3004_388.8_2 doesn't

    Yep - saying same thing. As to this CVE - it appears to be related to Asus use of OpenVPN ( https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-0401 ). Straight from the Merlin release notes for the latest version:

    Comcast email - RT-AX86U Pro - ASUS 3.0.0.6.102_34314 works, Merlin 3004_388.8_2 doesn't

    Not unreasonable. I get it. Just to set your mind at ease - unless @RMerlin has an explicit fix for a CVE (which isn't that common), his changelogs will only list a (usually somewhat aged) version upgrade to an underlying component, with no reference to any CVE. History and my gut this...

    Comcast email - RT-AX86U Pro - ASUS 3.0.0.6.102_34314 works, Merlin 3004_388.8_2 doesn't

    I wouldn't worry yet - overwhelming majority of similar vulnerability fixes, in the past, have been circumvented by Merlin being more up to date on non-firmware components. Just because Asus releases firmware, doesn't mean that the code they're fixing actually sits in the GPL

    GT-AX6000 or RT-AX88U PRO

    One weird vote for the 6000... I got mine open box from Amazon - i don't think it was ever unwrapped. What I think happened: User 1 opened box, shrieked, wrapped up, and sent back. If you can take similar advantage of open box "shriek" pricing like me, it's a steal.

    GT-AX6000 Discontinued?

    Doesn't look like you saw the date he posted. He was one day off. Anyway, I tried to warn him!

    GT-AX6000 Discontinued?

    There has clearly been an issue at Asus, especially with the 3.0.0.6 splits going on. AX-86PRO just got a build - i'm personally expecting the floodgates to open soon.
