    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 Beta is now available

    3006.102.4 Beta2 working well now. Wireguard rule was set up incorrectly, that is on me. Now it is working fine. No issues. Wireless performance looks fine.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 Beta is now available

    Doe I do agree with you. The other router is running OpenWRT and has a global setting. So I think what you are saying is correct. Back in the day, with Tomato you would pick #a in the wireless menu or set an NVRAM variable. Which NVRAM variable are you setting, and does it survive reboot or...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 Beta is now available

    The connection speed is the same as stock firmware 5.7 GHz between the device and the router at about 12 meters with few obstructions. The signal strength especially on 6GHz is really poor compared to my other triband router. I am using channel 5 on 6 GHz.

    Yes. And I can see it is active.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 Beta is now available

    Using Beta 2 on RT-BE92U. The 6 GHz signal is amazingly weak. About 5 to 8 dBm weaker than 6 GHz my other triband router (different manufacturer). Main functions work (IPv6, DoT, guest network, main network). Yes, I agree that 6 GHz would be weaker than 5 GHz in theory as higher frequencies...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 Beta is now available

    Also flashed BE92U without issue coming from Asus 3.0.0.6.102_37506 dirty flash. Used the Merlin instructions with "nvram set DOWNGRADE_CHECK_PASS=1". Works like a champ. Thanks Merlin!!!!!!! The signal for 6 GHz (channel 5 is the main one I use) is 3 - 5 dBm worse on the Asus Merlin...

    Release RT-BE92UFirmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37526-g5772bd6_1099-ga930e 04/02/2025

    The RT-BE92U router is stable but would benefit by Gnuton or Merlin adding it to their builds to get the additional features, logging, etc. Plus their builds are generally more frequent and more up to date on 3rd party SW. CPU cores with artificially high load seems to have improved with the...

    Release RT-BE92UFirmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37526-g5772bd6_1099-ga930e 04/02/2025

    I am using DNS encryption over TLS protocol (Transport Layer Security). It is a WAN setting. This uses opensource software in the background called "stubby" that intercepts the DNS queries on the router and uses the encrypted DNS providers selected so all the lookups are fully encrypted. My...

    Release RT-BE92UFirmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37526-g5772bd6_1099-ga930e 04/02/2025

    I have pages and pages of Kernel PKT (packet) messages on 3.0.0.6_102_37523 and 3.0.0.6_102_37526 that I do not get on 3.0.0.6_102_37506. I have no idea what functions you are using. I am using main and guest networks, IPv6, DNS over TLS and all 3 wireless bands over a 500 Mbps fiber...

    Release RT-BE92UFirmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37526-g5772bd6_1099-ga930e 04/02/2025

    This build 3.0.0.6_102_37526 is pretty bad (37523 also was crap for those who could load it). We probably all have pages and pages of what appear to be debug logfile entries with a bunch of hex registers. Look at your logfile or via SSH look at dmesg. Apr 4 18:09:03 kernel: PKT: Apr 4...

    Release RT-BE92U Firmware Firmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37523-g25e34fa_1096-gff526 03/27/2025

    I think this new build 3.0.0.6.102_37526 sucks. CPU load seems higher under traffic. Anyone else seeing that.

    Release RT-BE92UFirmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37526-g5772bd6_1099-ga930e 04/02/2025

    It looks like Asus is updating the bootloader in all of these updates. That is a generally bad practice unless they are actually fixing some faults or adding functionality in the bootloader. Anyone know why Asus is doing that?

    Release RT-BE92U Firmware Firmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37523-g25e34fa_1096-gff526 03/27/2025

    Replacement firmware update 3.0.0.6.102_37526 pushed out by Asus on the mobile app as a "stability update" for the RT-BE92U. The bootloader is updated again. This time to bootloader version U-Boot2019.07(03/31/2025-12:01:07+0800)50404p3@523100.

    Release RT-BE92U Firmware Firmware version 3.0.0.6_102_37523-g25e34fa_1096-gff526 03/27/2025

    Yes. One would think Asus would push out the update quite soon as it has been a while since the failed release of 3.0.0.6_102_37523
