    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.6 is now available

    Maybe it just wants to be an individual; a rebel without a cause (to connect). You can't fault it for that...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.6 is now available

    If your IoT devices are falling off the Wifi, maybe really consider doing a few simple tweaks like I did here? https://www.snbforums.com/threads/iot-devices-falling-off-nodes-only-always-requires-reboot-to-fix.96255/#post-979194

    IoT Devices falling off nodes (only) always requires reboot to fix

    [EDIT] Forgot to add, for some reason vertically orientated external antennas on the two RT-AX86U Pro nodes worked better than my normal setup of central antenna vertical and the outside ones at 45 degrees (first click). I’m neither qualified nor experienced enough to offer any explanation for...

    IoT Devices falling off nodes (only) always requires reboot to fix

    Yeah, the concept is fantastic, the reality, not so much. To be fair there are simply too many variables for a one size fits all auto smart everything solution to work effectively, even with supposedly GNP and VLAN compatible groups of hardware. Again, to be fair they do provide the tools to...

    IoT Devices falling off nodes (only) always requires reboot to fix

    Understood but weo of the RT-AX58U on 3004 and a TP Link switch specifically to handle subnets, it is (should be) specifically designed to work as an integrated system. All 3 VLAN capable, GNP Capable, 3006.102 codebase routers. Yes the GT-AX6000 has higher Tx power than the two RT-AX86U Pro...

    IoT Devices falling off nodes (only) always requires reboot to fix

    OK, I am back from my trip to my second network site and thought I would record what I did to achieve what I wanted and why I did it; maybe it will help someone (and confuse the heck out of the rest of you). FIRST First, as much as it pains me to admit it (TIC), I have come to the conclusion...

    Excellent; that was exactly what I was angling at, thank you.

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Thanks, so to be clear, “everything” here means uninstalls what, installs what, overwrites what I.e what does it actually do please?

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Installing entware per se should not be an issue. I asked the question for future users that stumble upon the thread. In your case I’d just uninstall optware, maybe also uninstall the cake install you have as well, reboot (just precautionary), then install entware, then your cake or cake...

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Just a quick question, if entware installs to the /opt dir, is there a chance there could be some conflicts due to leftovers from the optware install, and if so, would removing optware first be recommended (either in general and / or in this case)?

    knock v1.0 - router commands for non-admin users

    The first question was I guess more that the person setting it up did not have to remember what 44444 does and what 44445 does but I guess it’s mostly one off in any case. All good.

    knock v1.0 - router commands for non-admin users

    Very nice work, simple, so well done to you! I probably won’t use it myself, but couple of questions if I may, for folks that might: Just thinking about your target audience, is the Code parameter limited to numerical figures or could it be e.g, Wake_Up_Johhny instead? Whilst not part of the...

    BE98 Pro Mesh System – Constant Instability Issues, Anyone Else Experiencing This?

    😂 yup! Yikes, all clear now!

    BE98 Pro Mesh System – Constant Instability Issues, Anyone Else Experiencing This?

    Out of curiosity, does anyone know the reason for this? Asking as I thought a general recommendation for router placement was in an elevated position (noting that 2m is elevated, as is 1m, with respect to the floor, so that statement is relative…)

    Looking for a Wi-Fi 7 Router/AP with Wireless-Backhaul and VLANs

    OK, initial disclaimer, I don’t have Wi-Fi 7 devices, but if you go with ASUS I think it is imperative you get Router/Node models on “Asus VLAN List” of 3006 codebase GNP, VLAN supported routers that do just that. See Note 1 below. There are Wi-Fi 7 models on that list. If you do not care about...
