    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2_6 is now available

    Dirty upgrade, smooth as silk! This update seems to have added 10 mbps to VPN download speeds with VPN handled through the router? Plus, the cpu loading is down from 100% on both cores at a slower speed, to 1 core at 100% and the other at 68-70%. Huge unexpected improvement!!

    OpenVPN client speed

    I have the same problem, and I've hit the router CPU limiting with speeds about 40-45 mbps and router CPU's pegged out at 100%. So, the question is, is there a router out there in the ASUS line that has more horsepower and is able to generate higher rates. My Nord VPN running on a local...

    After rolling back to the stable release, all those wifi issues disappeared? Strange?

    News [ 386.3_Alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    So, today, after all kinds of WiFi instability; I had to roll back to the stable release (386.2.4). Both the 2.4 and 5 G would randomly shut down every 10 to 15 minutes for about 8-10 seconds. Of course, this destroyed game play and streaming...

    News [ 386.3_Alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    Tried the Alpha, and the process went smooth as silk with a dirty upgrade. Nord VPN functioned (at the usual slow 47 mbps through the router, vs. 363 mbps with pc desktop VPN). All leak checks were water tight with only Nord Clouvider showing as ISP! Of course, IPv6 must be selected off to...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2 Beta is now available

    Only problem that has surfaced occurs when I turn off IPv6 and start the VPN. The fixed DHCP assignments get lost, and the bridge router-192.168.1.169 fixed- intermittently takes the main router url- 192.168.1.1. DNS leak check shows a secure connection, and the speedtest shows about 10% of...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2 Beta is now available

    So on a flyer, after all the flail I've had with the 386 update line , I decided to put the Beta 3 in via dirty update from 384.19 final. This would have meant the end of operations for the router in previous 386 Betas/Finals. EVERYTHING is working as advertised!!! I am able to access the...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2 Beta is now available

    I've encountered the same dhcp weirdness! I'd thought that QOS was at fault, but Dhcp's getting scrambled is the root issue after all. Several hours after my last post, my media bridge and main browser began again to lose their address. LAN crushed, spontaneous restart, then just a short period...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2 Beta is now available

    As stated, I thought it was QOS. Not so, it appears. With QOS, it dropped connections for about 90 seconds every 1.5-2.5 hours. So, I turned it off. Now, I'm dropping every 2-4 hours. The log message (which I don't understand!) is: Mar 24 09:44:09 kernel: device br0 entered promiscuous mode...

    Thanks for the additional info, Merlin! Wonder when all the VPN providers will go over to supporting the coming standard?

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2 Beta is now available

    Final observation after 2.5 LONG days of troubleshooting the new 386 line and this Beta2. I usually use QOS in my router, even though I get 450mbps...not necessary, but nice insurance. The router did not like it. It affected reliable operation, causing the router to reset every 2-3 hours and...
