    [SCRIPT] Force IPv6 LAN DNS to mirror IPv4 DNS

    Do you have IPv6 enabled? Did you manually set the IPv6 DNS on the IPv6 Page also? Also, I believe with this setup the clients will have the router as the DNS server (you can easily see in the IP config on a client), and then the router sends it to your server. So if you looked at the logs for...

    [SCRIPT] Force IPv6 LAN DNS to mirror IPv4 DNS

    I am guessing other people have this problem as well. I have setup PiHole or AdguardHome on a separate server and using the router as DHCP. The first issue is that the router will force the routers IP as the IPv6 DNS server over DHCP and there is no option to change it on the LAN side only. I...

    Continued from previous post...AX58 vs. AX 68

    @L&LD thanks for the tips and yes that other post is good. I will have to watch for a deal on one of the compatible models if I want to setup the AiMesh. The upgrade just to the AX68 might give me enough range where I don't need it anymore anyway. Mostly just weak in one area of my house and...

    Continued from previous post...AX58 vs. AX 68

    Thanks to the feedback in here it made for a quick decision. I just purchased an AX68U on an Amazon Warehouse deal for $140 (open box basically). Replacing my old AC56U which I think I am over working and it crashes and reboots when I change certain DNS and DHCP settings. I cannot wait to see...

    Trouble accessing remote web admin through VPN

    Ok you confirmed I was heading in the right direction. Fresh start today and I got it sorted out. The route you suggested gets created already automatically but the metric is higher than the existing router so I had to be more specific. Going to document it here in case anyone else needs to do...

    Trouble accessing remote web admin through VPN

    What I am trying to do is log into the OpenVPN server setup on a remote router from my home network and access the router WebUI. Both the remote LAN and my home LAN use 192.168.1.1 for the gateway. If I am on my home network 192.168.1.1 is always going to my home gateway/router, I have tried a...

    [: addons: unknown operand [: addons: unknown operand rs manage Reboot scheduler Sun @ 1:0 Reboot scheduler options Reboot scheduler runs as follows: [: addons: unknown operand Sun @ 1:0 So I have been getting this error in the menu for quite a few versions. I finally decided to try...

    ntpMerlin ntpMerlin - NTP Daemon for AsusWRT Merlin

    POSTCMD="/jffs/scripts/ntpmerlin generate" I have noticed the POSTCMD in the init file causes it to take a long time to start on my AC56 router. When the router reboots I am pretty sure it is timing out and causing other services to not start (Diversion wont be started when I reboot with that...

    Why do I need to sell my soul to boot the kids off the internet at bedtime?

    Thumbs up on the apple screen time suggestion. They finally added it so I can configure it by day (less limited on weekends). I used to use the WiFi blocking but I found the phone can't do thier iCloud backup at night then. The screen time is great because it blocks apps but the phone is still...

    Web History Reporting and Management (Traffic Analyzer/Aiprotection Monitor)

    I saw this post the other day on my phone and flagged it. I had web history shut off because the ASUS interface is useless. I had thought about trying to make my own script to read it but never followed through. Going to try this out. Thanks! ---- EDIT: I found that by default due to my paths it...

    RT-AC86U, no power after scheduled reboot.

    What firmware version people will want to know. Also do you have any custom startup or shutdown scripts that might cause issues? Check Logs? I have my AC56U reboot once a week. Seems to keep it from randomly spiraling out of control and locking up which used to happen about once a month or so...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Sounds good, and just to clarify to prevent future issues once its fixed. To use a custom notify script should I leave Diversion set to disabled for the fwUpdate (and that will tell it to just leave it alone and not mess with my custom one)? Or should I enabled it and then copy over my custom...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Ok I messed with it a little more, I had the fwUpdate=off in my config file but the menu had the option to disable and would not let me enabled it. I manually set it to on, then the menu let me disable it and I found when disabled it was removed from the config file totally. Ok So then I made...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Dont know how but I am telling you with 100% certainty that it did in fact replace it and what I posted above is 100% for sure what was there before (I just made a jffs backup 5 minutes before I updated and used the port option). I guess if no one else reports the same issue maybe its a fluke...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    I had the update notification script disabled in ABS and below was the full contents of my previous update-notification script (and the file that runs is also totally custom does not say anything about AB-Solution): #!/bin/sh #Run My Update Notify /jffs/custom/update-notify-jtp

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Just updated from 3.x and seems like it went pretty well. It did replace my update-notification script with its own without making a backup, luckily I made backups ahead of time. Not really thrilled it just replaced that file without warning and no way to shut that feature off like previously...

    RT-AC5300 and Spectrum IPV6

    I just have regular spectrum cable which used to be Charter communications. All I did was turn on IPv6 and leave the defaults and it has worked fine for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Google Cloud Print and Airprint

    I got airprint to work for an older network printer that didn't natively support air print. It was a huge PITA using dbus avahi and cups but it did work. I ended up getting a new laser printer and it supports air print OTB and it was well worth it. If you REALLY want to get it working I could...

    Have you restarted it? Maybe the http server crashed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Web History not working

    I saw we all start a case with Asus support! Maybe they will realize it's a bigger problem. I think itue RMA is every manufacturers default way to fix anything they don't understand. Probably knowing people don't want to be without the hardware you are then forced to leave them alone. I have a...
