    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.3 is now available for WIfi 7 devices

    Nay. This is why the AC88U and my AX6000 can handle 64 character HEX passwords, because that is the standard. The standard is only a max of 63 with ASCII passwords. Edit1: That said, I'm thinking that if I set the password via SSH, it will bypass the bug. Edit2: Linux client connects fine...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.3 is now available for WIfi 7 devices

    64 character hex passwords are truncated by the WPA password field, preventing clients from connecting. Using a smaller password length, like 32 characters, fixes the problem, but the problem isn't supposed to exist to begin with. The AC88U my BE88U just replaced handled 64 character hex...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.7 is now available

    Appreciate the helpful resources. I'm just going to rollback.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.7 is now available

    The problem is the Prevent Client auto DoH is a global setting. Now if I want to use the iCloud Relay, I have to let everything else through too. If this setting is disabling the Private Relay, that's arguably a worse outcome. There was more privacy provided by the private relay proxy servers...

    Why is that considered a good change?

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.7 is now available

    I can't confirm that DoT is fully broken, but I can confirm that after a dirty upgrade that iCloud Relay has broken. Prevent client auto DoH must now be set to No, instead of Auto. If this is a bug in DNSMasq, so be it. I'll have to either revert or wait until the next release, but if this...

    Disable STP in stock

    Probably not. It looks like STP was purely a problem for the proprietary jank that was Flow Acceleration (FA) in a certain range of hardware. FA getting "fixed", FA being a deprecated feature, or just overwhelming CPU-crunching-power makes the whole discussion moot.

    Are all the known WPA3 security flaws fixed now?

    Wired Ethernet has known security flaws.

    Not able to update to Merlin

    https://www.snbforums.com/threads/asuswrt-merlin-386-2-is-now-available.71625/post-682566 https://www.snbforums.com/threads/asuswrt-merlin-386-2-is-now-available.71625/post-682659 You're not alone. I had to use Recovery mode and a CLI TFTP program to update the firmware. You might try the same.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2 is now available

    Yes, I ran into this issue on the RT-AC88U with the 386.2 to 386.2_2 upgrade. The upgrade via the HTTP GUI failed to complete twice and on the third attempt it corrupted the image and caused the router to boot into recovery mode. From there the CFE HTTP server also failed to apply a new image...

    How to block OCSP requests on OS Apple

    Anyone telling you to disable OCSP doesn't know what they're talking about and is engaging in a bad faith argument. While what you're asking for is possible, it comes with consequences you don't understand, otherwise you wouldn't be asking to block OCSP.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 384.19 is now available

    Native IPv6 RA is broken in 384.19. A link-local gateway address, public IPv6 address, and temp public IPv6 address are initially assigned, but the client is not able to retain that address. It eventually just drops off after about thirty minutes or so. Doing an ipconfig /renew6 restores the...

    Solved RT-AC88U 5Ghz wifi problem on 384.18

    The Broadcom ASIC in the AC88U doesn't offer the mid channels. I don't know if that's a compatibility or UI simplification choice for end users. If you force 80MHz exclusive, it has no choice but to consume 36 - 48. AFAIK the AC88U can't use the DFS range or mix the upper and lower band...
