Hi

Recently I changed my AC86Us firmware from asuswrt to merlin (384.19) with a previously hard reset. Everything is working fine, VPN was done in seconds. I am very happy except that version 384.19 is not connecting automatically to WAN after restart or powerup. Switching off/on the Internet-connection manually activates the WAN-connection successfully.

Deactivating VPN didn't solve, but stepping back to 384.18 solved this problem.

Any idea how to get 384.19 connecting automatically?
Thanks
 
Did you check that the /jffs is mounted?
 
My "WAN"port does not connect directly to the ISP , but to the DSL-modem/router.
The AC86U has a static ip in a 172.x.x.x. / 255.255.255.0 net. This configuration works fine with 384.18.
 
My ISP is Swisscom.
My setup looks like this:

Swisscom <---->DSL-modem/router(172.24.11.1) <---->AC86U(stat.IP 172.24.11.2)<---->(W)LAN (172.24.22.x)
