RT-AC3200

[Deano]

Hello and evening, I purchased the 3200 just before Christmas, I got round to installing this afternoon. On first install it advised a later firmware was available so I updated to the latest Asus firmware. I then attempted to install merlin. The firmware installed but always fails to run, I checked the sha cvn and it matches. Once flashed the router has power light and 4 Ethernet ports lit. The router seems to reset its self and I can not get into the setup page. I had to use the restore method to get the Asus firmware back on and up and running fine. I then attempted to use the firmware restore method to load merlin and again the same issues. Has anyone any idea what the single power light and 4 lights mean? Any idea on how I can get the merlin firmware on this unit?y
3.0.0.4.382_19466-g27029b5 Is the current running stock firmware.
Thanks

Your model the ac3200 once flashed with the 382 code base cannot be backed out of. It changes the boot-loader and nvram partition. So 380.69 is not doable.
