Hi !
Great firmware as guest networks are finally in their own subnets, and mesh for guest network works too
Anyway, like title says my RT-AX58U router gets new WAN IP in every reboot from my ISP. It's quite annoying as before moving to this AX58U my IP stayed same for more than a year. I have tried 2 different versions of Merlin firmware too, same issue happens with it too. Anyone else suffering this or is it some sort of incompatibility issue with my ISP and this Asus model router or FW? I just tested this with my good old RT-N18U (Tomato Firmware) and after being powered off for 15 minutes it still received same WAN IP from my ISP.
2)
An another question, does Asus firmware have /jffs partition nowadays or is it a Merlin thing? I did factory reset to my AX58U but /jffs partition is still there... but Merlin related directories no longer exists (configs, scripts).
3)
I can do pretty much everything I need with stock FW without Merlin (I know how to execute custom scripts in router boot up and have made custom ddns, crontabs, some other custom API calls, own NAT and firewall rules etc) but I haven't figured out yet how to make changes to dnsmasq config so that restarting it's service does not wipe away my modifications from dnsmasq.conf. If you know solution for this I would appreciate if you would share it
