    AX86U auto-reboots on Mondays

    I hate to admit it, but you might be right. Using USB flash drives as scratch disks never really made sense.

    AX86U auto-reboots on Mondays

    Update: found out what was causing this. It was the firewall (Skynet) auto-update. Sometimes it glitches the USB and makes the whole router reboot. I just disabled the auto-update.

    AX86U auto-reboots on Mondays

    Reboot happened today, Monday, 19th of June. As you can see, there were no log entries between May 5th and June 19th, but here: may 5th log I had Dual WAN turned OFF for months, no idea why it still says about load balancing. Noticed that below it I had "Auto USB Backup WAN" ON, turned that one...

    AX86U auto-reboots on Mondays

    RT-AX86U router reboots automatically Monday at 6:00 AM. Merlin firmware version 388.2 I checked in the GUI (Administration -> System) the scheduler is OFF, and in the AMTM I do not even have the reboot scheduler script installed. I did do a reset & reboot after installing this firmware...

    Detachable antennas

    I use the Edimax EA-MARS 802.11n/MIMO Antenna Relocation Stand, with the original antennas from the AX86U screwed into it, just to move the reception higher and in line-of-sight, while I can keep my router (and cables) in a ventilated cupboard. It works with my current AC devices, even though...

    Beta RT-AX86U Pro firmware 9.0.0.6.102.4856 2023/3/21

    Having more than 5 WG simultaneous clients (on idle/fail-over) would be very useful when you need to switch countries/states/nodes quickly in order to circumvent censorship, maybe find faster direct connections when streaming, even avoid DDos attacks. Please, PLEASE don't disconsider it. 10...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Everything running smooth, thank you @rmerlin.10954 ! Q: is there a possibility to expand to more than 5 WireGuard connections set in the VPN client (& VPN director) list, perhaps in a future update, or is this something only ASUS can do in their base GUI ?

    WireGuard VPN routing

    How does the Wireguard work in the VPN director (default ASUS/Merlin GUI), if multiple connections are active, do they work: 1. as aggregate? Meaning you get faster internet speeds divided between connections? or... 2. as simple failover, when one fails, the next one is automatically used...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    No update 388 yet for Wifi 5 (AC) models? AC86U specifically. The repo still only shows the 386 firmware of last month to be the latest.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.10 is now available for AC models

    I managed to make it (version 386.10) somewhat stable by experimenting A LOT then finally disabling (setting to "No") both the "Extend the TTL value" and the "Spoof LAN TTL value" options. Hope this helps. Now only the WireGuard Manager fails - stopping all of internet traffic - even though I...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.10 is now available for AC models

    Internet disconnects seldomly since I upgraded from version 386.7_2 to this one (386.10) Anybody else encountered this issue? Never had this happen before with any of the previous versions. Happens several times daily, strongly considering to downgrade until it gets fixed. Issue gets...

    Wireguard Wireguard Client VPN Failover Script

    Brilliant! Congrats @glitterclub This should be implemented by default in the WireGuard settings, don't you think?

    Wireguard Session Manager (4th) thread

    Since I switched to Wireguard Manager (instead of OpenVPN), Unbound barely gets to block any ads, they mostly all go trough. I used to have over 98% ad blocking hit rate previously. What did I forget to enable, link, configure?

    NVRAM [Release] NVRAM Save/Restore Utility

    interesting. Why would you need to do backups daily? Are you tuning your configuration so often?
