    amtm amtm step-by-step install guide - L&LD

    @L&LD I can well understand the limitations imposed by health issues, I have that bug bear myself but if you can ever find the time please believe me that it would be well worth while Sir. It is no exaggeration to say that this tutorial alone is responsible for me being able to jump on the...

    Solved RT-AX88u still unresponsive 3 hours after firmware upgrade

    Ok, update everyone and for anyone in the same situation After 5 hours and 22 minutes I could once again log in and configure. It was a little glitchy at first but seems to have settled down now. I am completing advanced config, adding the Aimesh nodes etc now. Here’s hoping. regards Ari

    Solved RT-AX88u still unresponsive 3 hours after firmware upgrade

    Greetings all So, as the title suggests I bit the bullet and upgraded from 384.18 to 386.1_2 stable release after which like others I am unable to log in to configuration. Unlike some of the others I did read the release notes and am aware that it needs to be left “between 5 minutes and an hour...

    RT-AX88U "Partner" Mesh unit?

    My apologies for the misunderstanding. Budget offerings for WiFi 6 are thin on the ground. I think in your position I'd go with a second Ax88U myself. In my case the nodes are only needed to cover lower level workshop and the kids area so the 68u is sufficient. Also at the time I got into it...

    RT-AX88U "Partner" Mesh unit?

    Hi I’m using an Ax88u on merlin 384.18 as the primary with two Ac68U units on latest stock Asus firmware the last 3 months or so with literally 100% stability. I’m using wired backhaul for best performance as recommended by Merlin. The reason I am using stock Asus firmware on the nodes is that...

    Running an FTP/FTPS on Merlin firmware Recommendations

    I use DUMeter mostly for the network traffic totals and review data in bound and out bound to get an idea of anything odd that might be going on.

    Running an FTP/FTPS on Merlin firmware Recommendations

    LOL Guilty as charged. Once you are up around the 60 y.o. mark the chase for the latest and greatest eases off and the appreciation for the tried, true and working is enhanced. That said, show me something better and I’m still all over it hence my recent discovery and adoption of RMerlin. :)

    AiMesh Question

    Ax88u Router running Merlin 384.18 and 2 x AC68U nodes running current ASUS firmware (because that’s what’s recommended in the docs and I’m not experienced enough to argue) with hardwired backhaul. Rock solid so far.

    AX88U bad block in boot log.

    Thanks for that, I thought that might be the case but it’s a relief to hear it. I’m really enjoying the functionality of the AX88u with your firmware and the community add ons. Thanks so much for all your work.

    AX88U bad block in boot log.

    Thanks Colin, tried searching but obviously used the wrong parameters. I'd still be interested in people's experiences of memory usage suddenly reducing. Regards Ari

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    Sir, I read this when you first posted it and being painfully new here, not knowing you personally and not wanting to hijack the thread I decided not to comment .... but I can't help myself. I was massively injured in 2012, during reconstructive surgery a couple of years later a large...

    AX88U bad block in boot log.

    Hi Guys This might be better placed in another basic Asus router forum, I don't know but as I am running Merlin and add ons I thought I'd ask here. Brand new RT-AX88U, just completed my first week up time with no obvious issues running 384.18, Diversion, Entware, Uidivstats and Skynet. I...

    JFFS Backup and restore?

    I hope I haven't lead you down the garden path with that one. At about 1 day and 20 hours I had a couple of random reboots and then an odd lockup where I could ssh into it across the LAN but had no WEBGUI access, a red WAN light and no wifi connectivity what so ever. I did a full reload from...

    JFFS Backup and restore?

    It’s certainly the place to learn. FWIW I had already installed 384.19 before I read that some folks were having issues with that version, from what I read though there is always a sub set of users who have issues with pretty well any version due to circumstances relevant to them but that may...

    JFFS Backup and restore?

    Thanks very much Colin I should have seen that but I keep getting lost in the firmware menus, three weeks ago I’d never even owned an Asus router let alone used custom firmware on one. Now with the AX88u running merlin, diversion and skynet I’m wondering why it took me so long. Lucky for me...

    JFFS Backup and restore?

    I'm sure it's been covered and apologise for asking but after a week of solid reading I've hit the "forum fatigue" stage and a couple of searches drew blanks. Also being a windows animal and linux illiterate doesn't help. Suggested best practice/method for backing up and restoring the JFFS...

    amtm amtm step-by-step install guide - L&LD

    Thanks again for taking time out to reply so promptly. Well, that answers my questions. A 250Gb SSD with a single ext4 journaled partition and a 2Gb swapfile it is. I wasn’t thinking about a smaller swapfile but rather wondering if larger was desirable or indeed possible. regards Ari

    amtm amtm step-by-step install guide - L&LD

    @L&LD Please accept my thanks for the work you're put in and for making it so much easier. I greatly appreciate it as I'm probably older than the average member here (I've been retired over 10 years) and it does take me a little longer to get my head around things than it once did, I'm not an...
