    Configuring Chk-WAN

    Awesome - thank you for the reply - I configged it as per the posts, and I better understand the “status” function now. :)

    Configuring Chk-WAN

    I'm trying to set up @Martineau Chk-WAN script on my Asus Merlin router. I followed the install instructions, and all seemed to go as planned. My challenge is that I don't think it is actually running correctly. I thought by typing "./ChkWAN.sh cron" that it would install it into crontab...

    monitor internet connection and reboot router on loss?

    I have an AC-68u running current Merlin FW. I re-boot the router at 3:00 AM every morning (stuff just seems to run better that way). Recently, the router gets in some sort of hung stage, and I have to physically power-cycle it when I get up in the AM. I was wondering if there is a way / tool...

    Difference in RT-AC68u and RT-AC1900 CPU - which one for primary?

    Thank you - I am going to switch it out & see how it goes! :) I appreciate the insights!

    Difference in RT-AC68u and RT-AC1900 CPU - which one for primary?

    Hi, @Tech9 - thank you for the reply - the UI "snappiness" isn't super important to me, as I am not it it much :), but are you saying the packet throughput is that much faster, or in what way is it noticeable?

    Difference in RT-AC68u and RT-AC1900 CPU - which one for primary?

    that's an interesting point on the VPN performance. I use Trust.Zone VPN on the router for just one computer, and it's set up via the RT-AC68u. I do get better performance than what you are describing (based on torrent speeds - they do something funny to speedtest.net, so it doesn't work...

    Difference in RT-AC68u and RT-AC1900 CPU - which one for primary?

    I have both an ASUS RT-AC68u and an RT-AC1900 (running current Merlin FW) - today I noticed that the CPU in the 1900 is running a higher mhz (1400 -vs- 800 on the AC68u). I have my 68u set up as the main wireless router, while the AC-1900 is set up as an Access Point (AP). My question is...

    logging URLs to separate server?

    thanks, @Martineau - QQ for you - wouldn't this possibly lose some of the data (depending on the frequency that I run it), or create multiple entries of the same URL if I run it too frequently?

    logging URLs to separate server?

    HI - I would like to log all URLs from my Asus Merlin to a logging server (or to the JFFS partition at a minimum). I did a quick search, but didn't find anything - is this a common or unusual request? Anyone know how I could get this done? Essentially, I am looking for a more permanent /...

    T-mobile gateway, ASUS Merlin, trust.zone, OpenVPN, - need to get RDP forwarded!

    OK - it is working - thank you so much!! You are correct - we do not need the FORWARD rules - I deleted the whole firewall-start file, and all still works as expected. I was not totally sure what was different between the versions, but now I see you separated out the FORWARD entries into t...

    T-mobile gateway, ASUS Merlin, trust.zone, OpenVPN, - need to get RDP forwarded!

    Ok - here you go - there is a lot of data here, so I put it into two text files. If I should put it in a different format or post it somewhere else, please let me know, OK? I changed my public IP address to X.X.X.X in these results, just FYI... Also, I think the VSERVER section is actually...

    T-mobile gateway, ASUS Merlin, trust.zone, OpenVPN, - need to get RDP forwarded!

    @eibgrad - thank you so much for the help so far and for the detailed explanation - it really helps! I have (hopefully) one remaining issue. If I just cut and paste the iptables commands in manually (-vs the script putting them into the nat-start file), they work just fine and everything is...

    T-mobile gateway, ASUS Merlin, trust.zone, OpenVPN, - need to get RDP forwarded!

    OK - this script looks like what I am after - couple of questions / issues, though, if I may? (and I really appreciate your help - thank you!!) I ran the script, replacing the ports and IP's with the ones I needed, however I need TCP and UDP for my setup - is there a way to do that? Secondly...

    T-mobile gateway, ASUS Merlin, trust.zone, OpenVPN, - need to get RDP forwarded!

    Also - note that my ASUS Merlin router is sitting behind the Nokia Gateway device, so I am double natted. I don’t think DMZ will get me much in that instance, as the T-Mo’s nat is filtering ahead of that. This is the reason I have the VPN client on the ASUS Merlin - it essentially punches...
