Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 is now available

Getting this now in the logs after update. Logs this every 30s. Any ideas how to fix it?

rc_service: waitting "restart_wireless;restart_sdn 1;restart_qos;restart_firewall;restart_stubby;"(last_rc:restart_wireless;restart_sdn 1;restart_qos;restart_firewall;restart_stubby;) via cfg_server ...

Some will print/save each GUI page where they've made changes to PDF so they can copy and paste the changes later. There are various methods and or scripts (YazDHCP for example) one can use to export and import manual DHCP reservations which can save some time. But in the end, a reset and manual configuration is going to take a little bit of time.
Do you guys think when doing a clean install, you do DHCP/Static IP entry first and save a CFG. Each successive clean installs, we can factory reset the router and load up the CFG that only has DHCP IP list? Any harm, say when going from .6 to .8 in future or those going from .4 to .6 now?

You can safely copy:

/jffs/nvram/dhcp_staticlist
/jffs/nvram/custom_clientlist
/jffs/nvram/custom_usericon

It's format has not changed.

Everyone has their own method and suggestions on best ways to update to newer firmware versions. Until one updates the firmware there is no way to know if there will be issues making a jump from older firmware to the latest that is several versions removed. Always check the firmware change log, it may have have suggestions or requirements on how to update.

There are various methods and ways to backup the manual IP reservations for later re-importation in the same or newer firmware. For example I used a YazDHCP saved manual reservation list from Asus-Merlin 3004.388.x in the Asus-Merlin 3006.102.4 firmware without any issues. Run the following code on the router using SSH to install YazDHCP develop version:
Code:
/usr/sbin/curl -fsL --retry 3 "https://jackyaz.io/YazDHCP/develop/install/YazDHCP.sh" -o "/jffs/scripts/YazDHCP" && chmod 0755 /jffs/scripts/YazDHCP && /jffs/scripts/YazDHCP install
Or if one has installed YazDHCP through AMTM, use the following code to update to the YazDHCP develop version:
Code:
/jffs/scripts/YazDHCP develop
/jffs/scripts/YazDHCP forceupdate
Or if one doesn't want to use any addon scripts like YazDHCP, one can manually backup or copy the files from the following location and restore them to the same location after a hard factory reset:
Code:
/jffs/nvram/custom_clientlist
/jffs/nvram/custom_usericon
/jffs/nvram/dhcp_staticlist
 
May have missed this. I understand SCP was removed from factory firmware but believe it was going to remain on Merlin's. Has SCP been removed with 3006?

Thanks.
 
Dear Sir/Mdm,

My setup is AX86U_PRO being the wireless AP. AIMESH with AX11000.
AX86U_PRO was setup to have wireless scheduler on/off. It also reboot every alternate days (auto reboot since its been setup like this). There are no issue with this.

With this latest firmware update, it creates some weird problem. It is related to the Guest PRO wifi. Sometime we cannot find the SSID for 5G. 2.4G can be found. This is a new GUI interface from this new firmware. Inorder to make the Guest 5G SSID to re-appear again and get connection, I have to reboot both AX86U_PRO and AX11000. These two ASUS unit are on its latest firmware update using merlin.

Is this a known issue? Why would a new Guest PRO wifi GUI changes causes this issue? My main wifi 2.4G and 5G can still work. Only the Guest 5G wifi. Guest 2.4G can be connected and working though.

Hope someone know this and can fix it asap.

Best Regards,
WH
