    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.7 Beta is now available

    Edit your service-event-end script and remove the commands that generate these log entries. The watchdog will generate autowan events every few seconds to check if there is any change to your WAN. The firmware itself already skips logging these events to avoid filling up the log, however the...

    Signature update script was missing for models with the HNS engine. Fixed.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.7 Beta is now available

    The "Reboot manually" message gets automatically shown by the browser if after a specific wait time (120-180 secs, it varies by model) the router's web server isn't back online yet. The vast majority of the time you just need to give it another minute for it to finish rebooting and for your...

    Does Unifi ever update their OpenVPN server software?

    The reason for 2.93-test2 is because it contains a few additionnal DNSSEC fixes over 2.92. I could just has well have backported these specific commits, the end result would have been the same since that's basically all that has changed concretely. And again, my point was about those...

    Does Unifi ever update their OpenVPN server software?

    If they do make any changes to the OpenVPN code, then these specific changes would need to be published as OpenVPN is under a GPL licence. OpenVPN 2.5.1 was released in 2021. Not having updated to newer 2.5.x releases after 5 years has nothing to do with "shorthly after new version becomes...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.7 Beta is now available

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.7 Beta 1 is now available for supported models. The focus of this release is the removal of AiCloud (for security reasons), components upgrade, and a GPL update for the GT-BE19000AI (as its initial release was based on a fairly early GPL version). Changes since...

    WiFi7?

    Note that this article is specifically about MLO. They also have a very good Youtube video related to this article (I watched it last night). If your goal is to improve throughput, you can definitely benefit from Wifi 7 in this area, even without MLO. My laptop is able to saturate my NAS's...

    Does Unifi ever update their OpenVPN server software?

    The version string tells me that Unifi's OpenVPN is based at the very least on the official OpenVPN source code, so it's not proprietary. Even the Copyright string says so: Copyright (C) 2002-2018 OpenVPN Inc <[email protected]>

    Does Unifi ever update their OpenVPN server software?

    The date simply indicates when the firmware was compiled, it's unrelated to the version or the code itself.

    Does Unifi ever update their OpenVPN server software?

    For all the flaks some people give at home router manufacturers for not updating components, those "prosumer" products ain't much better there. OpenVPN 2.5.1 - there has been a significant number of fixes (both functionality and security) in the 2.5.x branch alone since that release. No reason...

    Does Unifi ever update their OpenVPN server software?

    Engineering priorities... They're not the only ones. Mikrotik also uses an ancien version. And Asus only upgraded to 2.6 in Asuswrt 6 because it was necessary for the OpenSSL 3.x upgrade, before that they were still on the 2.4 version that they inherited from my code. I suspect they will...

    Does Unifi ever update their OpenVPN server software?

    As an HMAC, SHA1 is still fine. It's not used for security purposes, it's used for integrity purposes, so it's not an issue.

    102.7 Alpha Builds available

    Zero change to anything related to wireless in 102.7 except for the GT-BE19000AI. There has been no GPL or SDK merge for any of the other models. People reporting wifi issues, your issues have absolutely nothing to do with this alpha release.

    RT-BE88U Merlin Firmware: How to Trigger a Full Save for TrafficMonitor Before Reboot to Prevent Data Loss?

    Not everything is saved to the database. For instance, Last 24 Hours data is dynamic data that is not written to the database. The reboot process already takes care of stopping the rstats daemon, which will save its database before exiting. Anything not saved is dynamic data that's not part...
