IPv6 issues - uPnP/MTU

[L&LD]

You may be causing your own issues by toggling options on/off past their defaults. Toggling some options isn't the same thing as leaving those options at defaults in the first place.

If you really want to test correctly (not sure if it's mentioned above already), you should do a full reset to factory defaults and proceed slowly, methodically and take good notes along the way of what you're changing and how you're testing things. Everything makes a difference.

I suspect your router isn't in a good/known state anymore. A full reset and a minimal and manual configuration to secure the router and connect to your ISP is most likely needed to get to that base level again.

Merlin on ASUS ax86U Question

I have an ASUS AX86U and contemplating the installation of Merlin firmware. The DDNS settings on the AX86U are limited to select dns providers. If I install Merlin, will I have more flexability (choices) with the DDNS Settings? Thanks in advance!

Yes, agree. Though have already conducted a factory reset - both methods, and had same issue with minimal config...... I recognise probably need to do more structured testing over long period of time.

Either way, I tried to revert to stock firmware... But interestingly detects as incorrect one (am not sure if this is a Gnuton bug since introduction of the combo firmwares from Asus - I have a V1 Ax82u)... But irrespective, after the router reboots from this with existing firmware, the issue is temporarily resolved. This is what happened yesterday. The error comes back later. This is repeatable behaviour (I.e. Temporarily fixes again if I try loading the stock firmware).

When I have time, I'll aim to wipe device and restore to stock firmware using the firmware restoration tool.... And then test from there.

wait...GNUton? that's new information. You're in the wrong place. that's a specific fork of Merlin for even more specific Asus hardware.
Just which router are you talking about?

See post #1, last sentence (and the post you just quoted).
