    What Replacement for my RT-AC66U

    For whatever it is worth I'm a longtime user of Asus Merlin on a couple of RT-AC66U routers, and I recently decided to upgrade them both to RT-AC86U routers. It just seemed like the biggest bang for the buck without going overboard on excessive bandwidth that I don't need. I just wish my...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.65 is now available

    Just FYI, my issue with not being able to log into the router via SSH from the LAN (but still being able to login via WAN) was resolved with the final release.

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.65 Beta is now available

    Yes, exactly, which is why I'm asking. I really don't want to have clear the NVRAM and re-enter everything. But if I'm the only one having this issue then that's probably my next step.

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.65 Beta is now available

    My router is not compromised and all settings are correct. In case I was not clear enough, this behavior was directly caused by upgrading from 380.62 to 380.64, and it continues in the latest beta. It worked perfectly before upgrading to 380.64, and I was no longer able to make an SSH...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.65 Beta is now available

    I've had Merlin running on my RT-AC66U for years. Since version 380.64 I've been unable to make an SSH connection to the router via LAN. I just upgraded to 380.65-beta3 and the issue is still present. I am still able to make an SSH connection via WAN, so it is specifically only connecting from...

    Weird temporary network glitch with 380.62_1

    Thanks for the thought, but as I wrote, the printer was perfectly accessible and usable from another computer the whole time. And if the printer had suddenly decided not to talk to the one laptop for some reason, then why would rebooting the router resolve the issue? Doesn't make sense.

    Weird temporary network glitch with 380.62_1

    My wife complained about not being able to print from her laptop, which is usually due to the printer needing a reboot, or HP Print Doctor needing to be run, having her work VPN active, or networking sharing disabled, or something like that. So I started trying to figure out exactly what the...

    Setting DNS for VPN hosts

    Depends on the luck of the draw with your VPN provider. I run my own VPN on rented hardware in Florida, and I've found that the entire IP range of my ISP there has been tagged as "VPN" by Netflix. There is no way to work around it. Some VPN providers have been lucky so far, but there's every...

    Setting DNS for VPN hosts

    I do use Getflix still, although it no longer un-geoblocks Netflix so it is less useful than it once was (but I have a lifetime subscription, so I have no reason to not use it). Configuring the VPN for Getflix is done at the OpenVPN server side of things, not on the router. In my...

    Setting DNS for VPN hosts

    At the moment I've just got "Accept DNS Configuration" set to "Exclusive". I haven't done any testing recently to see if there are any DNS leaks at this point, but it is working for my purposes at least.

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.62_1 is now available

    I had some internet (WAN) connection issues with 380.61 on my RT-AC66U, but I've been running with 380.62 beta and 380.62 for the last couple of weeks now and haven't had any issues at all. I'm really glad 380.62 resolved whatever the issue was..! Thanks Merlin!

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.62 Beta is available

    Ahhhh thanks! I did not see the BETA folder at the top. I had jumped down to the bottom expecting to see a 380.62BETA file. Going to flash it now. Hope it helps. There is still plenty of free RAM when the connection to the Internet starts to fail, so who knows. Only one way to find out.

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.62 Beta is available

    I'm not seeing a 380.62 for AC66U, which is unfortunate because 380.61 is not working very well for me :-( I've now come home three times in the last week and found my router not allowing connections to the Internet. Logging into the router and rebooting it has fixed the problem each time...

    Redirect Internet traffic Policy Question

    Awesome! I had decided to try this feature and ran into the same problem. Glad to see that the question was already asked and answered and hopefully will be fixed in the next release. For now I'm keeping this code in my /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add file: # ROKU...
