    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 is now available

    That seems to have done the trick, although at first none of my LAN devices would show in the network map. rebooted again and I think OK now. Thanks!

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 is now available

    @RMerlin As always your code and firmware is beyond excellent and much appreciated. I've been using your firmware exclusively for years and wouldn't consider anything else. I flashed to 386.1. All seems fine with one glaring and troubling item. First, pertinents about my config: RT-AC5300...

    Pushing the limits ASUS/OpenVPN/Static Routes

    I did some more testing and have concluded that even though it's well documented that OpenVPN allows you to select your DNS, it doesn't look like it can be configured this way on my router. Thanks for the help though.

    Pushing the limits ASUS/OpenVPN/Static Routes

    I'm running the latest Merlin FW 380.66_2 with OpenVPN Client, DNS filtering and static routes configured on the router. When I enable OpenVPN, it breaks the DNS filtering meaning, I can no longer restrict my kid's internet, unless I turn on Policy Rules strict in the OpenVPN Client. If I...
