Thanks very much for your reply AndreiV. Your reply got me thinking. I have been running Firefox for years without issue. Clearing browser cache made no difference, and I know the router has been rebooted several times recently without any change. Upon installing and running Chrome everything...

Hi all. I am running an RT AC 68U with 380.68 firmware. I went into the client status section of the router to add an icon for a recently added piece of equipment, and found I cannot access the page to add or change the network item icons. All the pictures I added in the past are displayed but...

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to reply. I changed the user name and password again, and I have to admit it does look as if somebody was logging in and switching it off. The only reason I think this, is because since changing the login info parental controls have stayed operational 100%. Thanks...

Hey all. Need some help. No complaints about this router, at least for the first year or so. Then I noticed that my kids are online when the shouldn't be. Went into the parental control settings and found that the Time Scheduling was 'OFF'. So switched back on. Checked the next day and the...

Yeah. There is definitely something not right. I have been goofing around with this issue for quite a while now. I only recently noticed it was apparently effected by the USB HDD connectivity. Bottom line, I have 6 people in the house all coming to me saying the 'net is down again'. I had to go...

I bit the bullet and bought a new router. I got the RT-AC68U. Set up the network, plugged in the USB HDD with all the movies on it and it works perfect. Its running the 376 1663 firmware. So, I am guess that 66U was for some reason unable to cope with heavy usage and or had developed a...

Yeah that kind of makes sense. This all started a few months back. Last night whilst the USB HDD was being formatted on my pc ( ie not connected to the router ) we lost network again. All the network indicators were flashing a lot, and it took ages to connect through to the router interface...

Ok so. I formatted the usb HDD. Removed all files. Plugged it in to the router and mounted. The CPU usage meter stayed at 0%. I dismounted, then added one movie file and remounted. The CPU meter stayed at 100% for about thirty seconds then settled down to 0%! Great. So, whats the deal here? I...

Hi all. I did what you suggested Nullity, still the same issue. I will try your suggestion Merlin, I can see what you're saying. How would that explain the same issue with the 16gb usb thumb drive though? That just had various files on it, no movie files. I will format the HDD drive and try it...

Thanks Nullity. I will try that and report back.

Hi all. Here's my issue. For the past 18 months or so my RTN66U has been performing faultlessly. We have multiple wireless and wired devices in the house, and never have had an issue. About a year ago I attached a USB HDD to the USB port on the router. It's full of movie files. It has all...
