Yeah, I'd say it only has to do with services that collect and store user data, not devices. I'm pretty familiar with GDPR because I'm a software developer and we just did a few GDPR updates for various services and apps. Mostly just some changes in the privacy policies, really.

I updated my RT-AC56U to 384.5. It seemed pretty nice at first, but two major things did not work at all for me: * My USB modem would not connect at all. I tried everything I could think of, but it just did not connect. It said "network cable is unplugged" even though WAN settings were clearly...

I don't know wtf happened, but today everything started working again, without me doing anything... Mystical stuff :D

Yep, it didn't help :( Now the router managed to update its' time using ntp and setup ddns though (after many failed attempts, according to the log), but still no internet. So, I guess it's time to follow the guide.

Nope, I haven't had to do anything like that after any upgrades so I thought I'd be fine this time too. The connection problems started before I upgraded though. But yeah, I'll follow the guide if the downtime didn't help.

Yeah, let's hope that helps, I'll be home in an hour or so and then we'll see. Anyway, I don't think there's been any surge, and usually it's the ac-dc adapter rather than the actual device that blows if that happens (unless the surge comes through the phone line). I've had to replace dozens of...

Yeah, I figured the clock thing might be like that... I find it kinda strange though that it doesn't write its' time somewhere so it could be restored after a reboot to get it approximately right before getting the precise time from NTP - because if the time is wrong, all kinds of certificate...

Not that I know of, and all my network devices are connected to a surge protected power strip, so I don't think that's the case. Also, I don't have a wired internet connection, so there's no chance of a surge coming through the phone lines. (I've had that too at my parent's place) It might...

Hello, I don't what's going on with my router. I was at the hospital for a week (no illness, my daughter was born :) ), and when I returned, I noticed that my internet connection was down. I tried all the usual stuff - rebooted the router, disconnected and reconnected everything, updated to the...

Ok, I guess it could be an irssi-connectbot issue then. But for me it also connects Ok, the issue occurs when I try to ssh to another machine from inside the ssh-session - any chance you could try that and see if you get similar results?

I posted my dy.fi ddns-start script directly to the wiki. It's here: https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/wiki/Custom-DDNS#dyfi By the way ... does anyone else here ssh into their router using Connectbot on Android? I'm using the irssi-connectbot fork of it, and I keep getting strange errors...

I had some problems with Custom DDNS on the latest firmware - when my ddns-start script called custom-ddns-updated (or whatever it was called, I can't check right now), it resulted in a segmentation fault. Then I tested it again another day and it worked :D I didn't even reboot the router... My...

Yeah, that's probably a good idea to prevent stupid users like me from bricking their devices :D Luckily these routers have the resque mode, so we don't have to worry about permanently breaking anything. I had the same problem when I first updated to a Merlin build. Thing is, the folder dates...

It's an openssh generated RSA key, but I think it went wrong because I pasted the private key directly. I don't want to paste my real key here, but here's a newly generated similar one: -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- MIIEoQIBAAKCAQEAmFcHbZ1C8327QfGIDQ8PeuUvRtmzyWwFYirT3XmHs17L17hO...

My RT-AC56U broke last week, and today I received a new one. I flashed beta2 of this said version onto it, because the Mediafire-site didn't show the stable one. It seemed to work fine, until I set an ssh key - after that it got stuck in a boot loop. I'll flash the stable version tomorrow and...
