Hi,

tried to setup link aggregation Prost 3&4 on RT-AC88U with Merlin's script. Is that still supported ?
Merlin's Linkagg script throws errors on my router:

admin@RT-AX88U-8CF0:/jffs/configs# ./LinkAgg 3 4
./LinkAgg: line 296: robocfg: not found
./LinkAgg: line 296: robocfg: not found
./LinkAgg: line 296: robocfg: not found
./LinkAgg: line 296: robocfg: not found
./LinkAgg: line 296: robocfg: not found
./LinkAgg: line 296: robocfg: not found

RT-AX88U then reboots.

Can I aggregate WAN and LAN at the same time by changing one toanother port (5) as they both use port 4?

thanks
Chris

No you can't use both at the sametime.
EDIT: I read something wrong. You may be able to do this.

robocfg does not exist on the RT-AX88U, it uses a different network switch.
 
I use link aggregation 802.3ad using ports 1 and 2 with an AX88 and an Engenius switch and it works perfectly. I thought link aggregation was limited to ports 1 and 2, but I'm certainly not an expert. Port 4 has a secondary role as a secondary WAN, so I wouldn't think you would want to use it.
 
I also use link ag. on my ax88 with ports 1 and 2 to my Asustor Nas. It works perfectly.

Thank you for your reply. A new lead to follow.
Still trying to create VLAN100 tagged with AX88 but no luck...

This is because only vlan0-vlan15 nvram variables would be parsed by firmware. They are not vlan id per se, but numbers of vlans you define.

If you want to apply tags for vlan 100, use one of the free vlan variables and use vid suffix, exp:

vlan3hwname=et0
vlan3ports=1 2 8
vlan3vid=100
