    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...

    Solved BE86U vs Virgin Media

    You'd need to post under "Tech Chatter" in that forum, else the VM Staff will shut the conversation down as not a VM issue they can fix. Tech chatter area is community only and staff do not manage that area for support calls. AFAIK, on the HFC network or RFoG network (HFC=coax RFoG=fibre to...

    GT-BE98 PRO - Is there a new version?

    Agree, I am in same boat. Wont spend that much money again. Asus need to up their game, Merlin can only work with the closed components they give him too, so he is limited in that respect too. Bugs should have gone by now, far too long for a router. Introducing too many new models, many similar...

    GT-BE98 Asus Merlin

    Indeed, around 3 Asus firmware updates out of date so far. I believe the issue is that he has had some personal stuff going on that he reported on github forum, so naturally was concentrating on that...

    Looking for feedback: renaming the Tools menu for Sysinfo

    I find this setting useful if internal network connection goes - maybe because I rebooted or unplugged a cable, and the TV running Emby times out quicker than just hang with default settings for ages. I think this was the reason I amend it, was so long ago now (in years) I can;t remember 100%...

    Release ASUS GT-BE98 Firmware version 3.0.0.62.102_36911 (2025/04/17)

    4 months and this is all that's in this firmware update for a premium router???? Doesn't even have DHCP reservations for VLANs like the recently released BE98 PRO firmware has. QOS still broken. MAC allow list per SSID still states 16 total addresses allowed when sales web page states 64. Just...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.9 Beta is now available

    Is that on RT-AX86U though? I don't think anyone is sure it's all models or just some. So far others reported AX86U. I should be able to do a local login in a few days to see if that's OK or not.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.9 Beta is now available

    "ill advised WAN access" - matter of creative opinion. Its SSL TLS 1.2 at least, complex password, fully patched and locked down to one IP address for access, not just open to any IP address. Seems the AIDISK/AICLOUD people were more at risk than this which i never used. Yes, there is risk...
