    AC87U as a switch

    I'd still like the AC87U to handle DNS and Static Routes though. Will turning it into AP disable that? Router 1 (which will serve WiFi) will handle DHCP and will be plugged directly into the AC87U. Router 2 (AC87U) will only need to handle DNS and Static Routes and will be plugged directly into...

    AC87U as a switch

    Hi there, Is it possible to turn the 87U into a managed switch? My ISP modem is bridged, and I would still need the 87U to do static routes (my current router can't), but I would like to be using this different router for DHCP / DNS / etc. Thank you

    87U and OnHub

    Hello, My 87U is in my basement. My cable modem (in bridge mode) is plugged into it, and a single network cable runs from the 87U to a 5-port switch, which is unmanaged. One of the cables running from the switch goes to my kitchen, where I want the OnHub to go. Since the switch is unmanaged...

    Private Internet Access OpenVPN Client Custom Configuration

    I'm able to create an OpenVPN client on my 87R with no problem. My question is more around Custom Configuration. The posts that I've read that outline how to create an OpenVPN client on Merlin all have different entries in the Custom Configuration area. For example, on PIA's own support forum...

    Running script when connected to VPN

    You got it working on your first shot? Nice work! Which script did you use? There are a few openvpn-event ones there.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.51 is out

    So I've narrowed down my issue. When I reboot my 87R, as soon as Wi-Fi connects, my default browser opens to 192.168.1.1 Any website I enter takes me to 192.168.1.1, which sucks. In the past I've had to go through the Quick Internet Setup wizard to get back online, but today I discovered...

    Running script when connected to VPN

    You're looking for Selective Routing, which you can read about here http://www.snbforums.com/threads/selective-routing-with-asuswrt-merlin.9311/ If you get it working, let me know how you did it. There are quite a few scripts in that link, some of them are vpn_route_up or are referenced in the...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.51 is out

    I turned that off, and now after a reboot I just can't connect to the internet. It seems to me that there's a DNS issue after a reboot for my router. I should say that I haven't touched any DNS settings (all default), but this is similar to an issue I had before. In that scenario, after a...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.51 is out

    I asked this before, and it's come back. 87R, 378.51 - when I reboot the router, I'm always taken to 192.168.1.1, regardless of the URL I enter. Once there the only way to get my internet working is to go through the Quick Internet Setup, which of course is already populated with my network...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.50 is out

    I went to my Windows PC (I was using my Mac), and used IE, and it worked. The difference this time was that I chose 'Manual' settings over clicking 'Next'. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.50 is out

    Update to my last post. Flashed my AC87R with 378.50 from both stock and 378.50. I did a factory reset both times, and in fact I even went to far as to do a factory reset as soon as my router came back on from doing a factory reset (both from the UI and pressing the Reset button). My issue is...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.50 is out

    First time, long time. AC87R, 378.50 (from beta 1 and beta 2). Any ideas why I would need to run through the Quick Internet Setup each time I have to reboot the router? If I reboot and try to access, say, cnn.com, I'm taken to 192.168.1.1, asked to log in, and I can't access the internet...
