There was no GPL version downgrade.

That's just a crash from the ASD security daemon, something that randomly happens on all models. You can ignore these, the daemon will automatically restart as needed.

I have uploaded 3006.102.7_1 test builds for all models: https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/test-builds/ For other models this contains a few fixes (like the Wifi 6 devices missing NTPD settings), updates to curl and wget (from the 102_39848 GPL used by the RT-BE92U), the missing Cake settings for...

Nothing more that I can do here. I can no longer reproduce it, so I can't provide any addititonnal feedback tot Asus. Revert back to the sttock firmware, reproduce the problem, they report it to Asus directly..

Already fixed on my end, will be included in 3006.102.7_2. commit f60b078dc89b84f4eb318736ed9bc65d5b6ebd36 (3006.102-wifi6) Author: Eric Sauvageau <[email protected]> Date: Tue Mar 17 15:56:53 2026 -0400 webui: make isSwMode() case-insensitive, like Wifi 7 Fixes...

Use hand sanitizer before typing on your keyboard. You might still have some left from the pandemic era (I still do).

Nothing was changed with regards to the WAN handling between 102.6 and 102.7. merlin@ubuntu-dev:~/dev/amng$ git log --oneline 3006.102.6..3006.102.7 21d30a367f (tag: 3006.102.7) Bumped revision to 3006.102.7 final 7b6810ec20 Updated documentation 2bc9ee0923 rc: refresh wireguard BLOG bypass...

I don't have any info regarding the numerous revisions. Asus did something similar with tthe RT-AX58U/RT-AX56U as well in the previous gen, which makes me wonder if it's inherent to these bcm67xx models. Perhaps they are just more agressively trying to reduce costs due to smaller profit...

Double check that you are indeed running the latest test build. The version at the top should report "3006.102.7_1-gbeea6c005a" Mine still hasn't recrashed since the update, while previously it would crash within a few minutes after booting.

Software issues, and they are getting resolved.

No. Each router model has its own model-specific components, you cannot substitude components from a different model.

Just to confirm it, try configuring a 5 GHz Guest Network (make sure LAN access is still allowed, if your ShieldTV is accessing a local file server), and connect your Shield to it.

JS error fixed on the Wireless Pro page (bad GPL merge), thank you for reporting it. EDIT: uploaded a new test build with the fixed page.

The GPL archive is different because it contains precompiled binary blobs for the proprietary bits and has all the confidential source files removed, while the firmware release is built directly from the full source code. So, it's normal for them to differ. Basically the workflow goes like...

Roaming and Connect to Low Powered Channels are both disabled here.
