    Wireguard RT-AC88U Compatibility

    Your avatar showing placement of an IC is also the recent history of my AC88U ! I already have 2 x AX88U which are happily linked site2site via wireguard. But my old AC88U had a blown USB power chip. So last week I managed to replace the chip (FR9618) to resurrect the USB ports. This was...

    Wireguard RT-AC88U Compatibility

    This thread https://www.snbforums.com/threads/local-dns-with-two-remote-ac88u-with-bidirectional-wireguard.82303/post-808322 shows a screen shot with AX88U clearly visible... so it is confirmed that the text AC88U is mistyped. Thank you for your putting me straight.

    Wireguard RT-AC88U Compatibility

    This thread https://www.snbforums.com/threads/more-wireguard-oddities-with-ac88u.82559/post-811110 He probably meant AX88U but mistyped it :(

    Wireguard RT-AC88U Compatibility

    Okay .... I thought I'd seen others on the forum using Wireguard with AC88U, but maybe they achieved this without the Wireguard Manager?

    Wireguard RT-AC88U Compatibility

    I've installed the latest firmware, diversion/entware and wireguard manager packages to my RT-AC88U. However, when I run wireguard manager from amtm I get the following message: ***ERROR: Router RT-AC88U (v386.10_0) is not currently compatible with Wireguard®️! Is this to be expected?

    [ 388.2 alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    Where do you see the "IPv6 Update" for DDNS? Can this be seen in the GUI? Running this Alpha 2 on my two AX88Us with wireguard intersite between (uses Ipv4 public addresses).

    Wireguard Site2Site (AX88U to AX88U) on version 388.1

    I'm very new to this and cannot remember why I filled in the local network CIDR in VPN Director. I want both sites to use their local WAN connections for internet access and only use the VPN for intranet. Maybe I thought the 'any address' (0.0.0.0/0) would cause internet traffic over the...

    Wireguard Site2Site (AX88U to AX88U) on version 388.1

    I've attached pictures to show my set up. The server side is 192.168.50.0/24, the client side is 192.168.60.0/24. The client side is also behind another router with 192.168.188.0/24 as its LAN. When my laptop is on the client network, it has access to all addresses on the server network (as...

    Wireguard Site2Site (AX88U to AX88U) on version 388.1

    This post is just FYI. I have successfully got my two way communication between two LAN connected through Wireguard. However, the VPN Status at the server end doesn't show as connected. The VPN Status at the client end does correctly show the connection. Because everything is working well...

    Okay, I'll give it a go. Yes (2 x RT-AX88U), I have read your guide and it gives very clear instruction. Thanks for your advice

    [Dev] Asuswrt-Merlin 388.1 development

    I'm using 388.1 alpha on my RT-AX88Us (connected by site-to-site openVPN). It's working reliably :) and maybe I should leave 'well enough alone'. But I'm curious to see whether I could use wireguard instead of openVPN. Could I use 388.1 alpha with wireguard manager and/or use the new ASUS...

    Solved I cannot upgrade Merlin on my RT-AC88U to 386.7_2

    I went on site to the RT-AC88U and power cycled. I then re-attempted to upgrade 386.5 to 386.7_2 but got the previous message (firmware failed validation). I then disconnected all cables except the WAN cable and power cycled again. I was then able to successfully upgrade from 386.5 to 386.7_2...

    Solved I cannot upgrade Merlin on my RT-AC88U to 386.7_2

    I have checked the download several times. It is from the same Merlin download directory as previous successful firmware upgrades. I've re-downloaded it several times... always the same file details (the hash matches the one listed at https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/download). I loaded 386.5...

    Solved I cannot upgrade Merlin on my RT-AC88U to 386.7_2

    I am running Asus Merlin 386.7_beta2 and I downloaded 386.7_2 to upgrade. However, the upgrade failed and reloaded the beta2 version. How should I proceed?
