    Losing internet every 10 days or so with Telus ISP and RT-AX86U (Merlin 3004.388.8_4)

    It is quite a different information how long is router running without the restart and how often the connection has been dropped. This information is important only if the router restarts itself due some technical issues. There are many reasons why connection might be dropped. For example, every...

    Losing internet every 10 days or so with Telus ISP and RT-AX86U (Merlin 3004.388.8_4)

    His ISP device is in a bridge mode so it doesn't route, it's only a modem. There is no NAT, no port forwarding, no DMZ, no firewall, no PPPoE. It is a pass through device, everything happen on the router itself.

    Losing internet every 10 days or so with Telus ISP and RT-AX86U (Merlin 3004.388.8_4)

    Hmm, an interesting idea, DMZ of what? ISP device in a bridge mode or a Asus router? 😲

    Speed issue, where to start

    To test the ability of a router's port, simply connect WAN directly to any PC/device with 1Gb+ ethernet (using ethernet cable) and you will see the result in a log. You don't have to obtain an IP address, there is a test on HW level which should test a HW function. You can test all ethernet...

    Release GNUton [Official Fork] 388.8_2 Release

    I saw the vote for next supported models for 2024 on github, there were both ZenWiFi XT9 and XT8-v2 with more than 50 votes per each but I didn't see any final decision. Is it possible to add these models to the development chain? Is there any blocker for them or only lack of resources (mostly...

    Solved RT-AX82U Poor LAN transfer speeds fast WAN performance

    What did you use for a measure, some special application for transfer speed monitoring or some file manager application status?

    Solved RT-AX82U Poor LAN transfer speeds fast WAN performance

    The same MIMO setup? The same wifi channels? The same output power? What says the speedtest in wireless mode for both? Is it as in the first part mentioned (100+MB/s) for both? Then it might be also SMB definitions, what samba versions, what setup, what security? Too much questions to say it...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Just for the info, this release works with openvpn server and its clients properly, I can ping all clients even when ipv6 is completely disabled. I am still on the same setup, dirty flash over beta 2. Thanks.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 6 models

    Clients are AsusWRT-Merlin routers based on ovpn 2.4.x and 2.5.x, they create remote tcp/udp subnets, all of them have ipv4 addresses. They are connected to server on main router (rt-ax86u with latest beta). When I connect via ssh to main router and try to ping any of the branches (these client...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 6 models

    Also in the latest beta 2 I can ping OpenVPN clients only when ipv6 is enabled (on rt-ax86u). With ipv6 disabled any client connects but doesn't respond to ping. Something has changed since ovpn 2.6.1 and still broken. Confirmed.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 6 models

    I don't know but in the latest beta I cannot ping any OpenVPN client, in all previous versions I was able to do that. There is something different which I cannot see in the changelog. All clients are connected and functional, I can reach them via ssh but cannot ping any vpn instance. I had to go...
