    Moving from USB Flash to USB SSD

    Thanks for this. I was (and am) running something similar. The first one died several years ago and I replaced it. I use this now: SanDisk 64GB Ultra Fit USB 3.1 Flash Drive, up to 130 MB/s read, Black I have been browsing the forums and many folks seem to discourage using a USB flash and...

    Hi - after some time away, I have the "Merlin bug" and am starting to tinker around again...I am on a RT-AC86U running Merlin, AMTM, Diversion, BACKUPMON, ... I want to replace my flash drive with an SSD drive. There are several posts on how to do this. I am planning to use the SSD and...

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.9.1 -Oct 28, 2025- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Available in AMTM!)

    I figured it out. I did not get what "Target Media Type" was...my bad. I should have clicked but it did not hit me that was how to swap to a USB target (it is now obvious). Thanks!

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.9.1 -Oct 28, 2025- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Available in AMTM!)

    Many thanks for your work on this. I am trying to get this to backup to a share on my Unraid server (on the same LAN) as well as another USB that is plugged into my router. I am actually trying to get the other USB to work first then will tackle the network share. I cannot figure out how to...

    WAN Setting - WAN Connection Type

    I appreciate the help. My thinking was that all was working well so why mess with it. But then my OCD kicks in and I find that setting and want to get it "right". :-) Sounds like it is best to leave it be - Thanks!

    WAN Setting - WAN Connection Type

    Hello, I just swapped over to a new ISP. They are fibre and based in the UK (Gigaclear). They use CGNAT so I have been having to sort some issues out as I host a few services. Pretty much everything is sorted and I learned some new stuff along the way (CloudFlare Tunnels, TailScale, ...). I...

    How to do "echo 0 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/multicast_snooping"?

    Thanks @ColinTaylor - sorry, the whole topic is a bit confusing to me. Any ideas on how I can experiment to see why AirConnect will not work? I killed the mcpd process but my devices still do not show up on iPads or iPhones. but shows up on the AirPad sniffers I am using? I may have to...

    How to do "echo 0 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/multicast_snooping"?

    I am trying to execute the "echo 0 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/multicast_snooping" command line in Merlin. I am on an RT-AC86U running Merlin. Why am I tryng to do this? I want to get a utility working (AirConnect) and in the README it talks about ASUS routers having an issue: "When players...

    Anyone running AirConnect?

    Is anyone running Airconnect (https://github.com/philippe44/AirConnect) on their Merlin enabled router? I am on an ASUS RT-AC68U running Merlin and suspect I have some settings wrong. It seems to be a very popular utility. If anyone else has this running and could share their setup, I would...

    Simulate Latency / increase latency?

    Still open to any router tricks or tips to do this but found some possible proxy servers or other tools I may be able to use. Thanks!

    Simulate Latency / increase latency?

    I need to do some testing and am wondering if there is a way to increase my latency or simulate high latency? Open to doing this in Merlin or in a Merlin addon? I saw a post about leveraging VMs to do this but hoping to do something on the router. Happy if it affects everything short term or...

    USB Issues - Start again? How?

    So this slooks like it is the way I will need to go? http://www.snbforums.com/threads/amtm-step-by-step-install-guide-l-ld.56237/post-654310 The only thing I do not want to "lose" are my "client" names, Mac address mapping, icons, etc. Are there directions on backing those up and storing them...

    USB Issues - Start again? How?

    What is the best way to "blow away" the apps? As I cannot mount my USB, I cannot seem to use amtm to uninstall them? I would would like to get AMTM back to a clean state?
