    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    The fewer routes into the router the better and especially through an app. Remote access through VPN Server is such a better idea, if remote access really is that necessary. And for local access, 192.168……, through a browser is ideal. I’d call the failure of app access a blessing...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    Mine was the first download for the RT-AX68U. Been running 12 hours without problem. Thank you for the new visual displays in System Info. It straightaway led me seeing that Skynet was in trouble. I’ve had this on previous upgrades (despite safely ejecting the external SSD prior to...

    Help needed with DNS settings

    I enabled Apple Relay when it came out and wondered why I was seeing ads all over the iPhone, until I realised it was bypassing Diversion. You forget what a great job Diversion (and similar) does, until you turn it off. Needless to say, Apple Relay soon got the boot.

    I am wandering...

    Oh, I just love it when you send us pictures from your travels, Martin. And they are such absolutely stunning pictures, prompting a bonus from Mutzli, and allowing considerable zoom without loss of detail. The geology and the detail on the dead tree are magnificent. Thank you so much...

    Diversion Diversion doesn’t block youtube ads?

    Albania……. I think I’ll stick with the ads, then.

    [Youtube] Video from Dave Plummer on online privacy, mainly DNS

    Whom do I trust most for the firmware on my Asus router? I don’t need anyone else’s opinion.

    L&LD’s Guides and Tutorials

    Many thanks to everyone. As for the add-ons, Diversion is the main add-on I want, having been with it since AB Solution days. Thanks for drawing to my attention to the fact that, whilst AMTM and Diversion work fine, for Skynet, the “web UI does not work. Installation must be completed using...

    L&LD’s Guides and Tutorials

    Thanks. I did wonder, given when they were written, how long before they not only become out of date but are also counterproductive. Are there any up-to-date equivalent guides for newcomers, that you’re aware of? Thanks.

    L&LD’s Guides and Tutorials

    Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. You’ve reminded me that I now remember seeing some exchanges that were uncharacteristic of this forum, and in which he was a correspondent. That’s a shame. But, talking of the forum’s characteristics, thank you so much for your kind words, Dave; I really mean...

    L&LD’s Guides and Tutorials

    I’ll be replacing my RT-AC68U, and I’ve become a little stale and forgetful on setting up Merlin as well as AMTM and the Add-ons. Looking for L&LD’s famous guides, I discovered he hasn’t been around for a while, and his signature block - to locate his guides - no longer works. Fortunately, I...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.13 / 386.13_2 is now available for AC models

    I’m sure I won’t be the only one sorry and frustrated that you’ve been diverted into having to justify your approach in 2 long, time-consuming posts, when you clearly have more pressing matters to deal with. Having said that, they were interesting and insightful.

    Fun with ChatGPT...

    It included “robust”, so it’s passed the Turing test with flying colours.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.13 / 386.13_2 is now available for AC models

    Wellcome to the forum. More than possible: there’s been the odd occasion when Merlin’s brought out a firmware update for my rock solid RT-AC68U, and I’ve put off installing it. And the very next day, for the first time in months, if not years, I’ve had to reboot the router. And my first...
