Changelog of current alpha 2 lists OpenVPN 2.6.0

Thanks Eric for all your hard work and just sent some beer money to you from Oz.

Just make sure you are not using odd characters in your SSID and I have used many mobiles without issue on Wi-Fi both 5 & 6. As mentioned you should start a separate thread and supply more details for assistance as not a common issue for most.

I have ax88U with 386.1_2 and use VyprVPN. I downloaded and used the 256 bit files and this is what was added to the custom section. No issues at all and works solid. resolv-retry infinite persist-remote-ip keepalive 10 60 cipher AES-256-CBC tls-cipher...

It must have been a bug as 160 MHz is only relevant to Wi-Fi 6 (AX) and not Wi-Fi 5 (AC). So not applicable then to AC-88U model but it is on the AX-88U which I have. UPDATE: my bad this is incorrect as confirmed by Merlin some AC-88U units do support 160 MHz...

Treadler I am also in Oz and have NBN 1000/50 with ABB and RT-AX88U on 6APP POI. As you mentioned you do need to use QoS for Upload otherwise it will be real slow. I am on Merlin 386.1 B2 and these are my settings below. You also need to set each devices priority under Bandwidth Monitor as well...

Hello Eric, thanks for all your hard work with this project over the years and just sent you my annual donation. Merry Xmas. Cheers Mark

I have the Ax88U and mine works fine with 384.19B1. I did note though that Asus have released very quickly a new firmware to address by the looks some connection issues as below. It might be relevant to the type of connection you have. I have PPPoE 1000/50 fibre and dynamic IP. ASUS RT-AX88U...

With Intel AX200 which is 160 MHz you should actually be getting 2400 not 1200 (80 MHz). I have a AX88U on 384.19 Alpha 2 and noticed some real weird things with the 160 MHz band not connecting. I toggled it on/off and then rebooted the router and it then connected at 2400 on my laptop AX200 and...

I had a similar issue as I had the 384.18 Alpha on my AX88U but had constant internet disconnections. So I thought I would see what was in the latest Asus 9107 release and man I didn't realize how good and how many extra features were in Merlin's firmware ( big thanks again Merlin for all your...

What is at the other end. I have a QNAP NAS and have used Link Aggregation with a AC88U and now a AX88U without issue. It uses 802.ad dynamic. From my NAS Help might be of assistance. It is some time back but I think the Asus only supports Layer 2 and not Layer 2+3. This mainly gives 2 x 1 Gbps...

Thanks for all you hard work and effort you put into making these Asus routers great with your firmware. Keep up the great work and although I am not very active on here I do learn a lot and have used your firmware for years. My $50 annual donation is on it's way to you. Have a great Xmas and...

Thanks Eric for all your hard work and great firmware. Sent $US20 for a beer or two from Oz. Have a great Xmas & New Year.

Hello PeterDNA My guess is your router hardware is faulty. I have used this same router for years, RT-AC68U prior, and all the recent Merlin firmware and never had issues with wireless. I recall mention of some faulty units at one time so if still under warranty get a replacement. Might want to...

I use the RT-AC88U on Merlin 382.1_2 and although I don't have a Pixel 2 I do have a Sony XZ Premium on Android Oreo 8.0.0. I have zero issues with the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz wireless networks. I have 100/40 fibre and get 95/38 3ms consistently. I mainly use the 5 GHz range. I do find you need to fine...
