    News Trend Micro: Cyclops Blink Sets Sights on Asus Routers

    So, I'm fairly techy but Windows based so I struggle to understand anything Linux or command line stuff on how to talk to the router and check if its infected. I've seen several commands shared in this thread but don't know which one to use or more importantly, how to use them. Would someone...

    Nvidia Shield TV PLEX Server Slow Access to Asus RT-AC68U USB HDD

    My setup is an NVIDIA Shield TV Pro (2019) running a PLEX server with the media stored on a hard drive plugged into my Asus RT-AC68U (Merlin Firmware 384.17) acting as a NAS. I moved the USB drive from the Shield as it would loose access to the plugged in HDD for some reason. Having it on the...
