    Why Asus new Password security policy is ridiculous

    That's because that rule wasn't present in the GPL code used for 3006.102.5.

    Telnor(Mexican ISP) Fiber Passthrough or Seperate Router with ONT

    You need to get that information, it will never work if you don't configure that properly, so that's the very first thing that need to be resolved. A quick web search indicates that the VLAN may vary between regions, but the most commonly mentioned one for your ISP is 881. So, you have to...

    Telnor(Mexican ISP) Fiber Passthrough or Seperate Router with ONT

    Check with them if their PPPoE login require VLAN tagging - some fiber ISPs do.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    It just means that the application automatically triggers a check for new firmware whenever you connect with it. Nothing unusual there, it`s probably simply how it works.

    RT-AX86U lost WIFI speed.

    @jksmurf please refrain from personal attacks or name calling. I have cleaned the rest of the recent posts.

    RT-AC86U dhcp_staticlist to New RT-BE86U

    That should work, yes.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    Out of curiosity, did you have either AiCloud or the WAN UI access enabled?

    What are your thoughts on the new AI router GT-BE19000AI?

    Don't get me wrong, I also agree that the pricing is getting out of hands. My top-of-the-line RT-N66U back in 2012 cost me a bit under $200 CAD. The RT-AC68U pushed things to $250 CAD. Now, we are reaching $900 CAD, and this new router will break the $1000 CAD barrier. That's the price of a...

    OpenVPN Wi-Fi 7 Router Recommendation

    Depends on your needs. The RT-BE86U would be the direct replacement to your RT-AC86U. If you want 6 GHz support, then look at the RT-BE96U. There's also the RT-BE92U, but I can't remember if it has AES acceleration, which you would want for your OpenVPN tunnel. It has weaker wifi than the...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    Broadcom component messages. No idea what they mean, I believe it's their memory management module.

    Please give these test builds a try. They include the fix provided by Asus for the httpd server crashing when logging in using the APP API. https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/test-builds This is the only change at this time.

    What are your thoughts on the new AI router GT-BE19000AI?

    It shouldn't, as the Linux kernel would automatically free some of that memory if needed by something else. Unless something in Broadcom's own memory allocation is broken. See what the current limit is: cat /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes If it's something like 2048 (which would be 2 MB), try...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    Already discussed in multiple posts within this thread, but my bad for forgetting to update the second post reserved for documenting such issues. Asus sent me the precompiled files with the fix late last night, I need to find the time to build firmware images with these updated files.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    Asus fixed the httpd crashing issue. I haven't had the chance to test it myself yet, we are working out a way for me to get the fix since it resides inside a closed source component.
