    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    Just an update: I finally managed to update to 3004.388.10 by using Asus Firmware Restoration Utility. Need to set LAN IP to 192.168.1.10 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Then upload the firmware file with Asus Firmware Restoration Utility downloaded from Asus support website. (It is advisable...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    RT AX-86U Unable to upgrade from 3004.388.9_2 to 3004.388.10. After the firmware update process completed, it still stays in 3004.388.9_2 instead of 3004.388.10. I have tried downloaded the 3004.388.10 file from 2 different sources - Sourceforge and OneDrive...

    In 2.4 GHz wireless mode setting, why the dropdown no option for N & AX only?

    Currently the 2.4 GHz wireless mode setting has selection for: - Auto - N only - Legacy but there is no option for N & AX only. Selecting Auto will enable b, g, N, AX. There is a checkbox to disable b, but no place to disable g. Is it possible for us to set to enable N & AX only for 2.4 GHz band?

    [Security] SSH port opened to WAN even though "Enable SSH" is set to "LAN only"

    Today I run a port scan to my Asus RT-AX86U router running firmware 3004.388.9_2. To my surprise, I discovered that my SSH port is opened to WAN even though I have set it to "LAN only". Meaning, the "LAN only" setting is not in action at all! When I try SSH to my external IP address, the...

    Manually DHCP List and Domain Name Showing Unremovable Items

    I have an idea of forking and modifying the WICENS addon to monitor whether AiCloud is turned on or any external access is opened up. If found, it will email out an alert. Perhaps this will become another useful addon for security checking. Or maybe @Maverickcdn has the interest to extend the...

    Manually DHCP List and Domain Name Showing Unremovable Items

    @ColinTaylor could be correct of the thought about possible malware. I just checked that the following CVEs are related to AiCloud: Source: https://www.asus.com/security-advisory CVE-2025-2492, CVE-2024-12912, CVE-2024-13062 Although I always update my firmware to latest stable version, as I...

    Manually DHCP List and Domain Name Showing Unremovable Items

    Yes, it was Cloud Disk. It needs to be on in order for the AiCloud mobile app to work. But I seldom use AiCloud in phone as well, so I have turned it off. Thanks.

    Manually DHCP List and Domain Name Showing Unremovable Items

    I have re-flash the firmware (same version) and done a factory reset. Reapplied all the settings manually. It is working fine now. I have AiCloud, Media Server and Samba on, sharing the content in an external SSD connected to the router's USB port. However, these accesses are restricted to LAN...

    Manually DHCP List and Domain Name Showing Unremovable Items

    Latest finding: I can make the following change at SSH console: nvram set dhcp_staticlist="<mac_address>192.168.0.2>>My_Computer" nvram commit But after I visit to this page from web browser, it will revert back to the 3 DHCP hosts: https://192.168.0.1:8443/Advanced_DHCP_Content.asp

    Manually DHCP List and Domain Name Showing Unremovable Items

    Today I'm having the same issue as well after a router reboot. Asus RT-AX86U, firmware 3004.388.9_2. Nothing has been changed to the router settings and the firmware was updated since its official release here, quite some time ago. All the while the router is OK, until today, after a manual...

    How long does RT-AX86U have left?

    RT-BE86U is the successor of RT-AX86U.

    Disappointed with Merlin

    Check your DHCP setting. Do you allocate enough IP addresses for guest network, and set the lease time as short as possible to reclaim back the IP addresses in the pool.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.5 is now available

    Did you download the correct firmware? There is another RT-AX86U Pro beside RT-AX86U. Did you mount any USB drive from the router? Try unmount the USB drive before running the upgrade.
