Hi All - Apologies if duplicate post, I have come across many similar configs, but nothing identical with a solution. I have two Asus RT-AC66U, one in router mode, one in AP mode, both running Merlin 380.65_2. Guest network (VLAN 100, 172.16.34.0/24) on the router is isolated to a dedicated...

When adding static routes under the LAN, Route tab, the entry disappears after clicking apply and the GUI returns to being responsive. The route entry also does not appear in the route table. Anybody else see this same behavior?

Thanks again for all your help RMerlin. You mentioned that initially you had problems formatting the partition, how did you work around it? Looks like my answer is an RMA.

Tried that, receive the same break point each time. Is there a way to use mtd-unlock and mtd-write to put the files down without an mtd-erase? Or a way to use a different section of flash?

And now we are getting somewhere: Erasing 0x0 - 0x1ffff Erasing 0x20000 - 0x3ffff Erasing 0x40000 - 0x5ffff Erasing 0x60000 - 0x7ffff Erasing 0x80000 - 0x9ffff Erasing 0xa0000 - 0xbffff Erasing 0xc0000 - 0xdffff Erasing 0xe0000 - 0xfffff Erasing 0x100000 - 0x11ffff Erasing 0x120000 -...

Totally understand - thanks for the ongoing support. I tried your suggestion earlier today and received the following: mtd-erase -d jffs Error erasing MTD Although I'm not sure the syntax is correct. If I type mtd-erase -d gobledygoock I get the same message: Error erasing MTD...

Seems it may be those pesky bad blocks. I see the following in dmesg, which I assume is the mtd-erase trying to prep for the jffs partition: nand_erase: attempt to erase a bad block at page 0x00004340 Interestingly, my bad block table doesn't include that address: Bad block table found...

Update: I have a second RT-AC66U that was unopened, intended to be a bridge once I got the first one working as the primary router. I decided to try updating the firmware and enabling JFFS, and guess what, it worked! I used the same exact procedure as the previous router. I also see the same...

I've done the second reboot many times, and just tried the entire process again, with a third reboot thrown in for fun. I am using the reboot button at the top of the user interface, if that makes a difference at all. No JFFS and only a message in dmesg about JFFS2. However, there are a few...

Thank you RMerlin. Yes, I've tried that many, many times. The restart definitely seems longer once I have the format option selected. Regardless, no luck. BTW: I've also tried disabling JFFS, rebooting, then reselecting both radio buttons and rebooting. Still no JFFS.

May be a silly question, but research and fiddling for hours has turned up nothing helpful. RT-AC66U on 246 and I'm unable to get JFFS mounted. I've tried reverting to stock firmware, restoring to factory settings, reloading asuswrt-merlin and of course enabling JFFS and formatting on reboot...
