    I was trying to link a new Denon AVR S740H to my QNAP TS212 NAS. Just to be on the safe side, I installed the newest AsusMerlin firmware on my ASUS router. But I just couldn't get the Denon receiver to recognize the NAS. In fact, the Qfinder couldn't find the QNAP either. It was even worse - I...

    Need firmware file v 1.1.1.2 For DSL-N55U_C1

    I think the firmware in my router is corrupted. I have the Asus Restoration application but it (unsurprisingly) asks for a firmware file to upload and nowhere can I find one online including the Asus support section for the device. The extensions it is looking for are .trx .bin or .img. I...
