    Can't access netgear managed switches over wifi.

    Bit of an odd one and I don't really know where to post but as most support seems to be on the merlin pages (and I use merlin) I thought I'd post here. I can't access any of my 3 netgear managed switches via Wi-Fi, if I TeamViewer into my server I can open the web URL without issue, the laptops...

    ntpMerlin uninstall command for NTPmerlin

    I uninstall entware by accident, that's back on but NTPmerlins screwed, whenever you try to load it it says Creating database table indexes... I can't find a manual uninstall command line and have given up after leaving it building for 2 hours. Has anyone got the command needed to remove it...

    AX58 or AX68?

    Out of the 2 what routers got the better processing power? I know it isn't always down to processor speed or cores so it's an honest question :) Also I am on 600mb internet so the ability to deal with QOS without losing speed is a must. Thanks.

    Can someone help me with a script please?

    I have to send this command to trim the NVRAM and stop it moaning about it being low, I don't have many DHCP reservations left so the only easy options to automate the following for line in `nvram show | grep =$ `; do var=${line%*=}; nvram unset $var; done; nvram commit Would one of you...

    What router can handle gb internet speeds with AI protection and guest networks?

    I found out my speed was down since I was upgraded to 500mb internet, 200mb was the limit due to QOS, guest networks and AI protection to filter the kids devices, I have an AC68u, one of the original ones so it's getting a bit long in the tooth now. I would like to upgrade to one that can cope...

    Skynet outlook.live.com times out

    With skynet on it times out outlook.live.com even after adding live.com to the whitelist, as soon as I restart skynet it loads while it restarts. Is there anything else I need to do, this only started last night and I have since installed the update but still the same. The windows 10 email...

    Anki Vector can't connect when the firewall is on?

    Hi, has anyone got a Vector robot on AsusMerlin as I can only connect with the firewall disabled, not ideal obviously but I wasn't sure how to get around it. If anyone has figured this out I would love to know how? TIA.

    AC68u, clock speed on latest hardware revision?

    Been trying to find this out as I know the AC68u has undergone a lot of changes since my 2x A1 revisions. Is E1 the latest and is it 1ghz or 1.4ghz? Conflicting reports so I figured I would ask :) Also is the CFE encrypted on the E1 and above? Thanks.

    CFE editing (changing a value from 800 to 1000)

    Just wondering what to do when it comes to changing the clocks from 800 to 1000 as it is adding an extra character. Clocks have been stable for a long time but keep resetting so I figure the best way now is to do it via the cfe so it sticks. Any ideas as I would rather not end up with another...

    Samsung S6 5ghz battery drain (AC68u)

    Hi, I know old wireless drivers had some issues quite a few versions ago but I thought they had all been fixed. My Samsung S6 is using nearly 10% battery an hour when on 5ghz, if I put it on 2.4ghz I am getting about 4-5% an hour drain. On 4g this drops around 2% I can live with 4-5% but 10% is...

    Adding a Netgear GS108 to my network questions

    Hi, I needed to unbox my GS108 last week to add in my old NAS as a secondary backup. This is only connected to my 1st Asus AC68u to put both NAS's and my UPS on the network. As this switch has 16gb bandwidth would I benefit running it direct to the AC68 to link up my wired equipment including...

    Any reason to jump ship from Asus & Merlin?

    I used to use DD-WRT on my WNDR4500 + WNDR3700 & found it easy enough to get on with but I would rather avoid it if it means losing hardware NAT on a newer router. I have since moved to an Asus N66u + AC68u. But I bricked my N66u yesterday, oh well I wanted a 2nd AC router anyway as I used...

    scuse me Merlin, question about debricking?

    I did a stupid today, I hit the insert key by accident and screwed up my cfe file, then to top it off I flashed it on my N66u. It won't go into recovery, just 3 lights stuck on so I know it will need opening up to revive it. Can you advise on the best method and what cables are needed please?
