    Need help setting up DLNA server

    That's the idea. Will miniDLNA periodically rescan the directory for new content? What's the format of the .nfo file that miniDLNA accepts? Awesome! You pretty much did all the heavy lifting there while I was away on vacation for a week. You said an existing scanned directory... What if I...

    Need help setting up DLNA server

    Dune HD set top box with a 5TB HDD in it, it has the SMB (CIFS) share on it. It's great for H.264 content but it has no H.265 playback and beyond. It's old. No, it will not support DLNA natively.

    Need help setting up DLNA server

    My goal: SMB (CIFS) share -> ASUS router DLNA server -> Roku device (Ultra) Normally ASUS/Merlin is set up to serve DLNA from USB. I already have an SMB share on another device on the network, so I need the DLNA server on the router to serve those files from there. I understand I'll probably...

    Best powerline Ethernet adapters tested?

    Kind of disappointing if that is true, I rather like the concept of the technology. I have a much worse experience with wireless devices.

    Local management for Open Mesh APs?

    The legacy Open Mesh cloud controller is end of life. I've also had a hell time with Open Mesh APs in repeater mode, they only seem to stay up in gateway mode. I have three (3) Open Mesh A60 access points that I think I would like to manage locally (without cloud) since it's unclear when...

    Best powerline Ethernet adapters tested?

    I've used D-Link DHP-308AV in the past, they worked okay in a small apartment, especially for the price. But, they're not working well at a house with a shed, the shed power goes to the house breaker panel, but the link quality is quite poor. The shed underground power line (inside conduit) is...

    OpenMesh with Asuswrt/Merlin?

    Noob question, is it possible to integrate an RT-AC66U (MIPS) with OpenMesh access points? I figured "no", but thought I'd ask anyway.

    Solved I messed up in a user script?

    So I in fact did not screw up in the script, my remote access application just crashed on session disconnect after multiple router reboots, the router itself was fine. I just panicked that I couldn't reconnect after router reboot. The script did not run at all, there was no file created in...

    Solved I messed up in a user script?

    Sadly I did not back it up before I got started. In hindsight that would have been good. I did not see a UI option to disable radios, and I looked, and looked. I looked very hard. It was very frustrating not finding it. I can't check your instructions now since it is not up. If I bring it...

    Solved I messed up in a user script?

    You might be right that it's too early, although the wiki says it runs when all services had finished starting, that includes wifi, which is one of the services that can have events. I was going to try the events next, but it seems it did not boot, so I didn't get to try that. I guess I'll see...

    Solved I messed up in a user script?

    I have a pair of OpenMesh (managed through cloudtrax) access points, in my townhome, both are wired up, and as I understand they don't integrate with my Asus RT-AC66U (the old MIPS-based variety). I ran the latest Merlin build available for the MIPS hardware. Since I found no option to turn...
