    Brand New AX86S - Unable to flash Merlin

    I was thinking about formatting my main pc anyways. And yes, most probably its anti virus related. All the update-upload from file problems are now gone. I would never think about it on my own, so thank you very much all for your contributions!!!

    Interesting, yes all the pcs are using same AVG suite, you are brilliant. I didn’t get any notifications regarding blockage but it’s worth trying to uninstall it and try again. I will revert back.

    Thank you for your reply. Actually I did; Advanced Settings > Administration > Factory Default > Restore is the path I followed. Somehow I'm not %100 confident that the router is issue free. I never had these kinds of problems with my former Asus routers (this is 4th one)

    Thank you very much for the reply! I will try and revert back. Off topic, considering you are very experienced with Asus devices, is there any possibility for HW issues keeping me from updating firmware vis web gui? Or what can be possible reason for this behaviour? The router bought brand new.

    Brand New AX86S - Unable to flash Merlin

    Thank you everyone for your replies greatly appriciated. Actually I have tried it with multiple pc’s, different browsers with no luck. Coming back to my question; is it safe to upgrade firmware to Merlin by Rescue mode? This is the only option left untried for me. Thanks in advance.

    Dear All, I have been using Asus routers for a long time and I had so many ideas and found solutions from SNB, so thanks a lot for all the efforts and information sharing. This is the first time I am stuck at some point and looking forward to get help. I have upgraded my old good RT-AC68U...
