    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.18 and 384.13_10 is now available

    Updated RT-AC66U-B1 from 384.17 to 384.18 without doing full factory reset or restore. This "dirty" update seems to work nice and clean. Thank you R Merlin.

    RT-AC66U_B1 running 384.17 in Wireless Router mode. 5GHz wireless is set to Channel 36. AiMesh is disabled/not used. A device on the 5GHz Guest network (Amazon fire TV stick) is today unable to connect. The router is set to reboot each morning at 4am, just in case anything bad happens if I...

    Problem with Guest Network (Wrong Password)

    Thanks. The issue hasn't happened again since I posted so I'm leaving it at 384.17 for now. I'm hoping mine was an isolated incident, though it leaves doubts about stability. @Jack Yaz has an interesting script to enhance guest Wi-Fi here...

    Problem with Guest Network (Wrong Password)

    One of my RT-AC66U-B1 guest networks experienced this issue yesterday. I have two 2.4GHz guest SSIDs and one 5GHz. One of the 2.4GHz guest SSIDs would not connect any clients, no matter how many times the password was entered, nor after rebooting those clients. Prior to that, in the same...

    spooked by frequent notify_rc restart_firewall events

    Ah, yes, that one would be me turning on ssh. I get a similar set of log entries when I set Enable SSH to No. Another event happened today, at a time when nobody would have been connected as admin into the router. A scheduled reboot had occured at 4am, so this one is a in fresh session compared...

    spooked by frequent notify_rc restart_firewall events

    More clues ..? When I connected by ssh earlier, the following rc_service logs were recorded: May 6 22:27:53 rc_service: httpds 242:notify_rc restart_time;restart_leds;restart_usb_idle;restart_firewall;restart_bhblock; May 6 22:27:54 kernel: klogd started: BusyBox v1.25.1 (2020-04-25 22:25:08...

    spooked by frequent notify_rc restart_firewall events

    One other thing I did yesterday, before this issue kicked off, was to connect one of my desktop PCs directly via ethernet into the switch on a nearby AP on the network. I manually reserved a new static IP address in LAN - DHCP Server. This client already had a DHCP address reservation for its...

    spooked by frequent notify_rc restart_firewall events

    username@RT-AC66U_B1-F108:/tmp/home/root# ps w | grep amas_lib 368 username 5624 S amas_lib 477 username 5624 S amas_lib 6083 username 1436 S grep amas_lib 368 seems to be a common denominator. Does any of this provide any further clues about why these events are happening?

    spooked by frequent notify_rc restart_firewall events

    Operation Mode is set as Wireless router mode / AiMesh Router mode (Default) There are no other AiMesh devices in my network. Wireless APs are connected via ethernet. The APs are running a recent build of DD-WRT, providing assigned SSIDs (all different) and using fixed wireless channels to...

    spooked by frequent notify_rc restart_firewall events

    I'm trying to work out why today the syslog has many rc_service entries such as this: May 6 09:35:01 rc_service: amas_lib 368:notify_rc restart_firewall May 6 09:35:02 nat: apply nat rules (/tmp/nat_rules_eth0_eth0) May 6 10:19:37 rc_service: amas_lib 12463:notify_rc restart_firewall May 6...

    Clear System Logs - General Logs not working after updating to 384.17

    Thanks for clarifying. I now understand how to deploy that trick. Also thanks @dave14305 for clarifying the maximum logfile size. I can see why it is not worth worrying about. It would be nice if the GUI "Clear" function does what it says on the tin, or if the persistence could be user...

    Clear System Logs - General Logs not working after updating to 384.17

    Thanks @elorimer. I have no idea what syslog-ng is, nor that scribe script you refer to. Am I to infer I need to edit a script to prevent system logs being written to jffs? I'm happy to give it a go, but I'm coming to this forum in a state of almost total ignorance, so I would appreciate further...

    Clear System Logs - General Logs not working after updating to 384.17

    Thanks @dave14305, I'll give that a try. I was hoping I could manage everything through the web UI, but I guess I can blow the dust off PuTTY and do it via ssh. @elorimer : the log directory trick you mention sounds interesting. Apologies I am a noob as afar as Asus routers and asuswrt-merlin...

    Clear System Logs - General Logs not working after updating to 384.17

    If I understand, that neatly explains my observation that "Clear" doesn't clear? :confused: The "Clear" behaviour seems like a bug to me, though I'm new here and maybe the syslog stuff is as it is supposed to be. Can someone please confirm? I do not have ssh enabled, but might a possible...

    Clear System Logs - General Logs not working after updating to 384.17

    I had updated firmware from 384.16 to 384.17 a few hours earlier. Everything seemed ok, but I had just switched OFF Enable Share in USB Application - Network Place (Samba) Share / Cloud Disk and I was investigating an interesting looking new error I'd noticed in the General Log: httpd...

    RT-AX58U - Merlin 384.16 Trend Micro Parental Controls Not Working

    I have been using Time Scheduling in Parental Controls with my brand new RT-AC66U-B1 running Merlin 384.16. Initially I was having problems. I had read the note "Please disable NAT Acceleration for more precise scheduling control" and observed that the NAT Acceleration setting on LAN - Switch...
