AC87U Lagg problems.

[northwinds]

Hi all

Although a recent member here I am getting my head around a few things, slowly...

One main point of using Merlin and this router was to get Link aggregation to work with my Nas4Free build with twin NICs.

Therefore I have been trying this out for size:

and trouble shooting with comments here:

My problem at the moment is that when I try to execute the LinkAgg script - LinkAgg 3 4 to bind the ports, my terminal freezes and I loose ethernet.

I ultimately have to do a factory reset from my phone (wifi is still working) followed by a settings restore.
I've had to do this twice now but can't figure what I'm doing wrong.

Might it be this is not compatible with the AC87U?
I'm on Merlin 378.55
and using LinkAgg 1.5 from the first link above.

I am currently re reading the twelve pages of comments at the second link but am not finding anything to solve this yet :-(
Any help please?
