    ASUS WRT - Merlin - IPv6

    Investigations complete - Ports are not routed to the Mac from the public internet. The Mac is answering the pings (Setting Firewall Stealth Mode on the Mac prevents the ping being answered)

    ASUS WRT - Merlin - IPv6

    To clarify a few points: Router is RT-AX58U Firmware: 388.2_2 (Merlin) Tested ping from public internet - Receives a Ping response from an Amazon AWS EC2 instance. I'm unsure where the ping response come from - But further information on this thread suggests it's from the Mac. Router is...

    ASUS WRT - Merlin - IPv6

    Hi. I've been playing with IPv6. My Mac OS has an IPv6 assigned with the correct prefix. However, from the public internet I can ping6 that address and get a reply. Is this normal behaviour - In that the router is replying for everything that has an IPv6 address prefixed correctly? Or is...

    Asus Alexa Guest Control

    Fair enough - each to their own. I'll get round round to tcpdump-ing the network and find out exactly what's been communicated between Amazon and aaews. But you mentioning IFTTT has given me an idea of where to go digging.

    Asus Alexa Guest Control

    So for clarity - I can ask Alexa to start the Guest Network. The Guest network starts with an SSID of something like ASUS_Guest3 I can then change the SSID in the Web UI to MY_Guest. However, the next time Alexa starts the Guest Network the SSID is again ASUS_Guest3. Do you think that SSID...

    Asus Alexa Guest Control

    I get that. But if I change the settings the SSID and PSK change when enabled. I need to know how this is controlled.

    Asus Alexa Guest Control

    Would anyone know how Alexa or the Router chooses the SSIDs when enabling the third guest network by Alexa voice command. Is there some config file with these details in or does Amazon tell the Router what to use?

    Padavan Restart Wireless

    I’m tinkering with my N56U and the wireless SSIDs and PSKs and some bash scripts. I’ve found the relevant settings in NVRam and can write and commit them. I’ve found the guest enable/disable commands and the relevant toggle radio for 2.4 and 5. Although the setting are visible in the web...

    Set WPA/2 Pass Phrase From Command Line - How To.

    All I need to now sort out is how to report back to Alexa the corrected SSID & PSK to make this work seamless. Any idea how Alexa integrates with the ax58 anyone

    Set WPA/2 Pass Phrase From Command Line - How To.

    Brilliant! I've add the relevant changes into the services-event script, but didn't issue the service restart_wireless (otherwise and endless loop I guess) case $1 in start) case $2 in wireless) nvram set wl0.3_ssid="MyGuest" nvram set wl0.3_wpa_psk="MyPSK" nvram set...

    Set WPA/2 Pass Phrase From Command Line - How To.

    Hi. I've got an Asus ax58U running Merlin as my main router and an N56U as an AP running Padavan. I'm doing a bit of hacking around guest networks - Using Alexa to enable the Guest network and the ax58 When it does enable the network I have a script (/jffs/scripts/service-event-end) which...

    N56-U Padavan CLI Enable Guest

    Is there a script I can run to enable/disable the guest network from CLI? Or a url?

    Guest network - Running a script on enable/disable

    I’m trying to work out how to run a script when the guest WiFi network is enabled or disabled. I’m thinking that I should be using the service-event-end script. I think I should be looking for a wireless service for start/restart/stop but I could do with a pointer on how to detect the status...
