    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.6 is now available

    Try a different browser. My AX86U Pro (running on 388 firmware) is experiencing the same issue as you - very sluggish and slow to respond on Chrome. Using Brave, the GUI is its normal snappy self.

    WAN IP (eth0) wrong?

    Bonus!! Funny story with my ISP (Bell Canada Business) - and I put this out there for @Tech9 - I was offered a 1.5 Gbits/1 Gbits service on a special offer. A big step up from the 75/75 mbits service I was using. Not needing a 1.5 GBits service, I tried to get a lower speed service for a...

    WAN IP (eth0) wrong?

    You can call your ISP and see if they are willing to give you a public IP. Otherwise, connect to your network through IPv6 as you have already indicated that you are getting an ipv6 address

    spdMerlin spdMerlin - v4.x - speedtest and bandwidth monitoring

    Most Asus Merlin use Entware. It is somewhat the backbone of doing all the extras on the router. You can use the router's builtin amtm script to install entware. https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng/wiki/AMTM

    Just making sure of things... Do you have Entware installed?

    Entware E-mailrelay Package

    Besides this being an old thread, any changes you make to the passwd directly will not survive a reboot. I believe Merlin has a postconf script you can use to make changes to the passwd file, if required.

    RT-AX86UPro - Should I upgrade from 3004 to 3006 now?

    It really comes down to how risk adverse you are. For each person reporting difficulties with the 3006 branch, there are as many people reporting stable operation. It seems that the WiFi 7 devices are having more difficulty. I would also say it depends on your complexity of your router...

    Suitable UPS for ASUS RT-AC88U

    APC has their own free software suite that you can likely use the silence the alarm. There are a few other free software programs you can also use that will likely do the same job. You just need to Google them. As to how long the UPS will last with your peripherals, one will need to know how...

    Suitable UPS for ASUS RT-AC88U

    There are free open source solutions to turn the beep off on most UPS. If you don't mind waiting a month or so, I can give you a sample setup of how I use NUT on my Router to turn the bleeping beep off.

    Suitable UPS for ASUS RT-AC88U

    3.5 amps is what the supply is capable of at 19 volts DC. You need to look at what the input draw is at 110 volts AC or 240Vac if you're in Europe. Either way, you may find it hard to find a cheap commercial grade UPS that will last 3 to 4 hours. What I did with mine, is removed the small...

    NFS mounting issues

    Sorry. Just don't know enough about NFS. I did read that the software engineers keep changing the config behavior between versions. Previously the config was done in /e t c/defaults/NFS on Ubuntu 20.04, thenconfig lives in /e t c/NFS.config in 22.04. maybe 24.04 is different yet again. At least...

    NFS mounting issues

    Progress. Ok, mountd appears to use a random port on the server, so lets lock it down so you can make a reliable firewall rule. Edit the /e t c/nfs.conf file and find the lines; [mountd] #port=0 Uncomment the port line and change the port to some high number. Does not matter what the number...

    NFS mounting issues

    Also, if you are using a firewall on your server, try turning it off. Your firewall may be blocking Port 111.

    NFS mounting issues

    I figured it was going to be a server/permission issue. Not a lost exercise as we learned that some additional steps to get NFS working on the router with some models may be required. Give this a try - On your server, add the insecure option to your export line. NFSv3 uses port 2049 (I...
