    AX88U crashes and reboots

    I understand all these suggestions, but it degrades the router two generations back. ASUS should be more meticulous with the Wi-Fi driver, the last 3-4 generations had problems with its stability.

    Factory Reset and JFFS Problem - RT-BE86U

    Try to use chrome/brave browser with development tools active (press F12) then on network tab click on Disable cache. It should prevent you from getting the same sceen after reloading again and again. I reported it here but nobody cares. Then, if you want to read the jffs folders, you need to...

    After Upgrade to 3006.102.5: "Can't Add Zero Mac!"

    I see the same on my rtax86u. I found out that mac address for wl0.15_hwaddr is set to all zeros. I can update it manually with nvram set and commit, but after very short time it changes back to all zeros. I also see that wan0_hwaddr is set to a mac address of the same wl0.15, even when I use...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.5 Beta is now available

    I have created new VM with nothing but 3 different browsers installed (mozilla, chrome and brave) just for testing. I know something about SW development, especially GUIs. Anyway, downgrade fw to the previous final version solved the issue on all browsers. That's my basic check.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.5 Beta is now available

    It looks like some issue here. I see in mozilla docs also this: Elements that can be associated with a label element include button, input (except for type="hidden"), meter, output, progress, select and textarea. So no radio type is allowed. In brave browser I cannot change it at all, only...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.5 Beta is now available

    I tried a factory reset as last option, the second bug disappeared, but first one is still there and it is very annoying.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.5 Beta is now available

    I am testing beta on be88u and I found 2 bugs. 1. After change of vpn server from the list, the page shows previous page status. The same when I start server, after starting, it shows it like disabled. Only CTRL+F5 helps. It simply does not refresh the screen after any change. 2. There is not...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.9 is now available

    The "mysterious route 239.0.0.0" is a common subset for private multicast (similar to 192.168.0.0/16, 172.16.0.0/12 or 10.0.0.0/8 for IPv4 space). I don't see any reason to stay on the stock firmware if Merlin is available. If you're having any issues with Merlin, you probably haven't read all...

    Losing internet every 10 days or so with Telus ISP and RT-AX86U (Merlin 3004.388.8_4)

    It is quite a different information how long is router running without the restart and how often the connection has been dropped. This information is important only if the router restarts itself due some technical issues. There are many reasons why connection might be dropped. For example, every...

    Losing internet every 10 days or so with Telus ISP and RT-AX86U (Merlin 3004.388.8_4)

    His ISP device is in a bridge mode so it doesn't route, it's only a modem. There is no NAT, no port forwarding, no DMZ, no firewall, no PPPoE. It is a pass through device, everything happen on the router itself.

    Losing internet every 10 days or so with Telus ISP and RT-AX86U (Merlin 3004.388.8_4)

    Hmm, an interesting idea, DMZ of what? ISP device in a bridge mode or a Asus router? 😲

    Speed issue, where to start

    To test the ability of a router's port, simply connect WAN directly to any PC/device with 1Gb+ ethernet (using ethernet cable) and you will see the result in a log. You don't have to obtain an IP address, there is a test on HW level which should test a HW function. You can test all ethernet...
