    YazFi Can/Should YazFi be installed on external USB drive?

    (Sorry for the noob question, I have tried to search the forums for an answer but can't find it) Is it possible to install YazFi on a USB flash drive rather than the router's internal memory? I understand that YazFi will require writing to disk and I wanted to reduce the risk of wearing out the...

    Hey everyone. I wanted to share something I noticed today regarding the RT-AX86U router. It caught my attention that AdGuard wasn't running, so I decided to investigate further. Upon checking the router, I discovered that Entware was not mounted. To my surprise, the USB drive itself was not...

    Looking for recommendations for USB drives to be used for scripts / swap running Diversion / Skynet on an AX86U pro. Not interested in anything large-ish, as I only use this drive for running the amtm scripts and not for NAS in any way. Try to keep my io to a minimum since it pushes the CPU so...

    Does switching USB port lose settings?

    Sort of a dumb question, but, last night I wanted to try adding dual WAN (DW). I added my android phone, played a bit, it acted squirrely, so I just turned it back off. Now, all of my forwarded ports are completely gone, and there's no way in H - E - Double Hockey Sticks do I remember offhand...

The networks (2g and 5g) are still showing up...

I’m generally pretty...

    AX86U Samba Doesn't See USB Partitions

    I recently upgraded from an AC66R to an AX86U hoping to improve my home network's reliability and remote access. Once upon a time on the AC66R I could access an attached USB drive and it would show the partitions separately. I currently have a NAS connected elsewhere on the network that when I...
