    Why Asus new Password security policy is ridiculous

    Its generally accepted as 15 in security circles. Complex non dictionary words, and at least 15 in length. At 15 and over its incredibly difficult.

    Release ASUS GT-BE98 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_37902 (2025/08/14)

    Isn't that beta firmware now really old - like 2 years+? There was a newer beta 9.0.0.6.102.4856 for XT12 (part of the .102 code base though) and that is only slightly newer and that is circa 2023. If you want the latest it's Merlin for BE98-PRO most of the time as he gets newer GPL's usually...

    Release Asus RT-AX86 Series Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388_24386 9/1/2025

    Isn't the latest alpha2 test release incorporating the changes, though Merlin may decide not to change user settings? The GPL he has was newer and merged into alpha2.

    Merlin 3004_388.10_alpha1 (now 3004_388.10_alpha2 for most devices)

    All good on RT-AX86U. The Client Status Network Map fix works in this release, but didn't in Alpha 1. Plugins like Diversion and Merlin AU update and LCD status all worked fine. Thanks Merlin.

    Merlin 3004_388.10_alpha1 (now 3004_388.10_alpha2 for most devices)

    It was a general reply based on availability of GPL code being supplied by Asus; basically Asus late giving over again. If its affecting one branch it's probably affecting another. On another thread it was stated a while ago that GNUTON was waiting on Asus for GPL by Merlin, and then Merlin's...

    Merlin 3004_388.10_alpha1 (now 3004_388.10_alpha2 for most devices)

    Crikey, does this mean GNUTON won;t get going on the GT-BE98 until October then? (cries into sleeve)

    Does AiProtection really work?

    Adguard is Russian. It seems to always be the one complaining in logs about DNS rebind security issues when I tried a couple of years ago using their DNS resolvers. I use Cloudflare's Family DNS over TLS, with DNS Sec. Cloudflare Family does Malware and Adult. Remember, many adult sites and...

    Adaptive QoS and HW acceleration

    Not sure how they get away with broken QOS, as its illegal in UK to sell something stating it has it if it doesn't work (as in stock firmware that is). Asus mention QOS in specs of item. How is Asus getting away with it as this has gone on for some time now? Been so long since I was on stock...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 is now available

    For those EU/UK people running BE98 who read this thread - GNUTON (and contributors) has released a production version today over at GNUTON's github. It's now on par with Merlin's release (well, actually derived mostly from that anyway). Available in CLASSIC UI or ROG UI here...

    What's better GT-BE98 or the GT-BE19000 ?

    Production release for BE98 released today over at GNUTON's github. Now on par with Merlin's for BE98 PRO.

    What's better GT-BE98 or the GT-BE19000 ?

    GT-BE98 in my view. GNUTON build only for BE98, unless you are in an area where the BE98 PRO is sold and that's covered by Merlin. GNUTON uses Merlin build source anyway and just does the tweaks that may be specific for BE98 and builds the images (AFAIK).

    Solved BE86U vs Virgin Media

    In my area of VM, I don't get these delays, but since VM is a hotch potch of different networks which were all separate cable companies at one time, some areas might be different. You might be able to get around this in the future by cloning your MAC address of the old router in your new router...

    Release GNUton [Official Fork] 388.8_2 Release

    Posted in the Wifi 7 router section what it fixed for me. This beta release was substantial for me. DNS Director works, DNS over TLS in VLANS works, DHCP reservations in VLANs works, 64 MAC address for filtering, WPA2/WPA3 mixed mode on an SSID works with Smart TVs (LG) that are WPA2 only...

    Solved BE86U vs Virgin Media

    It should release this upon reboot of the VM HUB5. Power up your router after the HUB5 rebooted, always works for me. If its doing weird issues, then a factory reset and putting it back into modem mode is best.

    GT-BE98 Asus Merlin

    Posting from my GitHub discussion for info to those not on Github: 3006.102.4_1-gnuton0_beta1 has fixed quite a few things for me, and updated my original comments posted above. Wasn't sure if this update was serious at first, because not listed on main front page under BE98 Testing, and...
