I have found that it's necessary to check for the existence of my custom VLAN before creating it because the firmware sometimes does not clear out the Ethernet bridge tables before calling firewall-start. EXAMPLE: /jffs/scripts/firewall-start # RT-AC68U: create vlan14 only if it does not exist...

I would like to know this too. FYI, the router has two bridge tables. ebtables -t filter -L ebtables -t broute -L

On mines I use a bungie cord to hold 2x large USB-powered fans to the back of the unit. RT-AC68U overclocked to 1200MHz. CPU temp is 52C. Ambient 21C.

I'm not the forum expert on vlans and bridging. That said, I would probably have to guess at it. For your RT-AC87U will it work? Type 'brctl show' Pick a vlan in the list you want to modify. For you it's probably vlan1. Type 'robocfg show' to see the ports for the vlan1. For you this ports...

I cannot use my 120GB SSD on the USB 3.0 port of the router because of this problems. See the attached syslog below, complete with a kernel stack trace. However, the SSD works fine when plugged into the USB 2.0 port. Soon I will test it with an externally powered USB 3.0 enclosure. Maybe...

If you must use telnet, try this: telnet 192.168.1.1 user: admin password: admin cat /jffs/scripts/ddns-start cat > /jffs/scripts/ddns-start Now copy script to clipboard and paste into the telnet window. CTRL-D to save changes CTRL-C to exit without saving changes chmod a+rwx...

Sometimes dropbear crashes and there's no way to login remotely. Here's way that could automatically restart dropbear, when it is not running. /jffs/scripts/services-start #!/bin/sh cru a CheckSSHD "*/5 * * * * (/bin/pidof dropbear 2>&1 >/dev/null || /sbin/run_sshd)"

What is the Subnet mask for the LAN? What is the Gateway address for LAN? I don't use PPoE, but maybe your ISP is somehow assigning a Subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 which would put all your devices on the same network?

I had this similar problem and it was a bad SATA III to USB 3.0 cable for my SSD. What made it worse is that MiniDLNA would automatically try to rescan the media folder everytime it happened. So it would spike the CPU and bog down the router at arbitrary times. Just use a good shielded cable...

Maybe the mtdblock3 indicates JFFS reads, not writes? You are running a web server on the router, that is reading web pages from JFFS, but it is not writing back to JFFS? Here's my htop: PID USER PRI NI VIRT RES SHR S CPU% MEM% TIME+ Command 254 admin 20 0 0 0...

No USB stick is necessary for simple web pages. The router already has a simple web server that you could extend. Make a user web page on the router: echo "<b>This user web page is stored in the router's RAM.</b>" > /var/wwwext/mypage.html Access from browser...

I tried this and it worked, but is it a good idea? TOR can make secure DNS lookups, similar to Dnscrypt. I could use TOR as a DNS resolver for my entire network? /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add no-resolv server=127.0.0.1#9053 # tor

It works good. Thank you. File Sizes -rwxrwxrwx 1 admin root 262144 May 22 20:17 dnscrypt-proxy -rwxrwxrwx 1 admin root 79228 May 22 20:17 hostip

Success. I compiled Dnscrypt 1.4.3 for ARM, dependent only on the firmware, just like yours. Are these file sizes too big? Can you please say how did you remove the bloat? Do my './configure' lines have too many unnecessary switches? I used the ARM toolchain of the Asuswrt-Merlin firmware...
