    Mounting issues with add-ons

    Thanks. First I congratulate you for a great amtm. It offers a lot of router enhancements. As I've noted in a previous post, I reused USB disk with Entware installed two years ago (regularly updated) on AC86u with RMerlin FW 386.1. I only restored backed up /jffs/scripts and it works...

    Mounting issues with add-ons

    Thanks for explanation. So I can safely format EXT4 on my Linux PC and use it for Entware. I installed it before amtm was included in RMerlins FW. And I like that. I only use additions included in Entware and assume amtm as not needed router CPU overkill. See how many users complain about high...

    Mounting issues with add-ons

    Is there any exact reason, to use NTFS formatted drive, since this is Window$ native, Router (read Linux) native is EXT4? I use EXT4 ever since, and had zero problems (Linksys, Netgear and now Asus RT-AC86u).

    The Uptime Contest

    Regarding the contest, I wonder, what is the purpose of this setting: I can't think of any other than "keep the box clean and healthy". RMerlin what do you think about it? Is it necessary or can be set to "No", as Linux is stable. As a prove to my quote "Linux is stable": 20 or so years ago I...

    Best practice to uploading latest Merlin 386.1

    So Weekend is nearly finished and so am I with the update. I reserved a few hours at Friday evening to do it right and added some waiting time after factory reset, jffs format and reboots. And that proves to be a worthwhile. So the best is to be patient in no hurry. All features I use/need work...

    Best practice to uploading latest Merlin 386.1

    Over the weekend I have a plan to upgrade my RT-AC86u on 384.17 to latest 386.1 I've read all suggestions/manuals here. L&LD manuals are excellent, but I'm not sure about all: When to do a factory reset? Prior or after new FW upload? Is it right to reboot right after new FW upload or I have to...

    Take a read here: https://bioinitiative.org/ Better safe than sorry. I'm over 60, WiFi and GSM is here for less than 20 years. My kids are born in WiFi/GSM radiation and have to grown and live with it. This is a huge difference. :( And please DO NOT open discussion about that issue here...

    AC86u 2.4GHz max speed 144Mbps

    You are right. Stay home forces us to work at home. So my wife & son work 2-3 m from a router. But a year ago I switched off 5GHz part of a router as this frequency is far more harmful to humans. And 2.4GHz speed is fast enough for all purposes even for Samba on that wonderful peace of...

    AC86u 2.4GHz max speed 144Mbps

    Thanks. And another (stupid :rolleyes:) question: Is it possible to bond 2.4 + 5 GHz in one speedier link?

    AC86u 2.4GHz max speed 144Mbps

    AC86u 2.4GHz max speed 144Mbps

    Hi! Ia have AC86U with Merlin FW 384.17 I noticed a limited speed at 2.4 GHz. No device connected can not exceed 144Mbps - Wifi Log show 144/144 and signal -34 dBm (distance 2m). I'm in the country house with no other WiFi signal (no other routers near or other disturbances). I know, that I...

    Protected Management Frames

    Can confirm "Capable" cause troubles. DLink DAP1620 WiFi extender with FW 1.5 and Samsung Tab3 won't connect. Default "Disabled" is not set by mistake.

    entware starting dbus-daemon failed

    Agree. Running samba4 & qbittorrent from Entware and disabled execute avahi-daemon from Entware so it's executes firmares version (Merlins). That combination run excellent, no errors or warnings.

    As I expected amtm do not address the issue, so why you suggested the above?
