    Solved ASUS RT-AC68U router can't reach specific website - known issue?

    Epilogue: one week ago today (Saturday, January 27th), I sent an email to contact@howtogeek.com explaining the entire scenario. Within 24 hours, my home network was unblocked and I received an email from their staff Monday morning that said the following: We contacted our I.T. department and...

    Solved ASUS RT-AC68U router can't reach specific website - known issue?

    I appreciate the additional sanity check, Bennor. I reached out to their webmasters via their "Contact Us" page two days ago, but haven't heard anything back from them yet. If I still haven't received a reply after a full week has passed by, I will try reaching out to them via their social...

    Solved ASUS RT-AC68U router can't reach specific website - known issue?

    I appreciate the feedback! It is good to know that the same router/firmware combination is working perfectly elsewhere. Perhaps it is something as innocuous as being blacklisted by their domain, because most of our local logins allow HowToGeek to have an Adblock Plus bypass, but not all of...

    Solved ASUS RT-AC68U router can't reach specific website - known issue?

    I have been running an ASUS RT-AC68U router utilizing Merlin's firmware for several years, and it has been remarkably stable. I will literally reboot it once-a-year for preventive maintenance, but that is typically the extent of my intervention. A couple of days after my traditional January...

    Unknown entry in RT-AC68U System Log?

    I certainly appreciate any advice... even "mentoring" regarding how to utilize the forum search function. But as I said, I had already looked and couldn't find anything definitive.

    Unknown entry in RT-AC68U System Log?

    I have been utilizing Merlin's 378.51 firmware on my RT-AC68U for several months, and everything has been working perfectly. As always, I am grateful to Merlin for all of the time and effort that he dedicates towards this project! About eight days ago, the following entry (with the date/time...

    RT-AC68U - Unknown system log entries

    I would imagine that this is just a false alarm, but I wanted to double-check just in case. My RT-AC68U has been running continuously for over 36 days without any problems on Merlin's 3.0.0.4.374.39 firmware. However, twice within the last week there were some entries within the system log...

    ASUS RT-AC68U lost access between workgroup devices

    This afternoon, we lost the ability to navigate between various network devices on our workgroup. I noticed an entry in the ASUS RT-AC68U system log that looked like this: Mar 14 14:34:59 miniupnpd[9413]: removed 13 unused rules I couldn't find anything else that might be the root cause...

    ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.374.4561 is out

    I definitely appreciate everyone's feedback! I just installed the RT-AC68U two weeks ago and really like the feature set, but two days ago the router rebooted twice overnight. I installed 4561 yesterday evening and haven't had any problems in the 18 hours since then. Also, perhaps I am...
