    Can't Get DMZ Or Port Forwarding To Work ON ASUS DSL-AC68U

    Just to add, tried this on latest stock firmware for ASUS DSL-AC68U and with Merlin firmware. Have discussed this with a friend who reported that he had issues with port forwarding and DMZ on the ASUS DSL-AC68U. I also tried port forwards on the ASUS DSL-AC68U however, that didn't work either...

    Can't Get DMZ Or Port Forwarding To Work ON ASUS DSL-AC68U

    Hi all. Tried setting up a DMZ on the ASUS DSL-AC68U. However, it isn't working here. If I disconnect the ASUS DSL-AC68U and use the Sky UK fibre router with it's DMZ connected to my ASUS RC87U then everything works as expected. I simply want to use the DMZ on the ASUS DSL-AC68U and pass all...

    802.11ac Not Transmitting ON 2 Channels ON 5G ASUS DSL-AC68U

    Hi all! Trying to work out if my ASUS DSL-AC68U has buggy firmware or if it may be faulty. When I look at it with a wireless scanner on 5G if I have it set to 802.11ac or if I perform a factory reset then when looking at it with a wireless scanner it’s only transmitting on 1 channel on 5G. I...

    Error Message On RT-AC87U Log-in Screen

    Yup, tried stock firmware and various versions of that and factory resets etc however, nun of that worked. Don't think the Merlin firmware would cause these kind of issues. Fairly certain it wouldn't as was running with it for over 3 weeks before I lost the 2.4Ghz radio.

    Error Message On RT-AC87U Log-in Screen

    Not so sure about that. It could be that there could be a faulty batch. Anyway, got mine refunded and found a slightly cheaper price and purchased it. So far so good :-)

    Error Message On RT-AC87U Log-in Screen

    Cheers for that Eric :-) Shall talk to Asus tomorrow. Here was me thinking that there was something wrong with the factory reset procedure. Sounds like if all was well hardware wise then, I would have been able to do that and had 0 issues and that error message would have disappeared :-)

    Error Message On RT-AC87U Log-in Screen

    Hey Eric. Thanks for the reply! WOW! Just had this router a couple of weeks. Is it normal for the 2.4Ghz radio to die so quickly? Unbelievable! Am assuming that the issue isn’t Merlin related as your firmware was working great! Had wondered if someone had tried to hack the router but now...

    Error Message On RT-AC87U Log-in Screen

    Hi all! Firstly want to thank Eric for the great firmware for these routers. It was all working great and I was running RT-AC87U_378.56_2. However, noticed yesterday that my 2.4Ghz network had disappeared so, tried logging in as usual at: http://192.168.1.1/ That’s when I saw the following...
