    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 388.1 Beta is available for select models

    For the first time in over a years time my Synology NAS suddenly went into hibernation. I'm on 6/7 hour setting for hibernation. Running Beta 3 when this happened. Could it be a code change? "Ping" change? Thank you for your outstanding work as always Merlin. Highly appreciated.

    WAN DNS problems

    I'm running an AX88U with Merlin 386.3_2. I leave LAN DNS off, and use the WAN DNS settings instead. This works great, but not for an AC87U in bridge mode. This bridged router will include its own IP-address as DNS no matter what. First address is from AX88U and the second is always the...

    RT-AX88U enabled AX slows wifi extremely

    Why use Mesh at all? I would not because of security reasons like WPS.

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.14 Beta is now available

    Thanks for your answer. The question is about wpa2/3 combined. It makes little sense to have them combined. What is the benefit when WPA2 is still weaker?

    Quick question: combined WPA2/WPA3 mode is it more secure than WPA2? Under AI protect I get weak WiFi Password and Cryptation message. My password is far from weak...

    AX88 Primary WAN can be set to USB, can...

    Thank you very much for answering,,, I should maybe have opted for the AX89 instead... Too bad the AX88 doesn't have multigigabit ports. I will live with Link Aggregation, and I think it will sufice for now.

    I would love for a higher than 1 gigabit port,,, I allready use LAN port 1+2 in link aggregation for max 2 gigabit... USB may offer even higher bitrate 3-5 gigs?
