    RT-AC88U Randomly Drops 5GHz Frequency

    I have been having similar problems where the 5Ghz network would die completely and require a restart. Adding a small laptop cooler under the router helped because I found my temperatures in excess of 90°C. I still get signal drops which becomes annoying when I'm streaming audio wirelessly from...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    I just installed V18E1 on my N66U (coming from 17E8) and now JFFS is not getting mounted. Any suggestions on how to fix this? I already tried formatting JFFS and rebooting and enabling/disabling JFFS but no luck.

    RT-AC88U

    Based on the specs and what we know as of now is it likely that the AC88U would outperform a Ubiquiti Edgerouter POE in terms of OpenVPN Client performance? I'm looking for an upgrade from my N66U and OpenVPN Client performance is my priority. These are the specs I was able to find; Ubiquiti...

    Chromecast + VPN DNS Issues

    Thanks for your response... Those are useful tips. My vpn provider managed to fix issue in the end by blocking/re-routing additional DNS traffic from the Chromecast at their end. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

    Chromecast + VPN DNS Issues

    Thanks for your reply. I already have the VPN connection taken care of (it uses a custom application installed on the router, not the built-in OpenVPN client) so won't be able to use that script. The part I am stuck with is figuring out how the Chromecast is bypassing all my attempts to block...

    Chromecast + VPN DNS Issues

    I have set up my N66U running the latest Merlin fork with Astrill VPN which comes with a handy router applet that takes care of VPN connectivity (Uses OpenVPN ). All my devices on the network (Phones/PCs) are able to use this VPN tunnel perfectly well with the exception of my Chromecast. After...

    Selective Routing with Asuswrt-Merlin

    Guys this is an extremely useful thread. Thanks to the script I was able to get this working. I am no longer dependent on my VPN provider for selective routing (I was using the applet for Asus-Merlin routers from Astrill VPN). Is there is a more elegant way to switch a specific device (my...

    OpenVPN Server : How do I get VPN Clients onto the same subnet as my internal LAN?

    My goal is to be able to login to my RT-N66U VPN server from a WAN address and then access file shares behind it on my internal LAN. So far I have been able to achieve this by using PPTP servers and clients but have been unsuccessful with OpenVPN. So far I have limited the internal DHCP...

    Signal Strenght 374.38.1-em vs 374.35_4-sdk5

    I installed the 374.38.2-em build on my RT-N66U. Did some before and after testing using robocopy to transfer a 500MB file off a shared drive on a PC connected via physical LAN to a laptop on wireless. Speeds on 2.4G and 5G didn't drop (after I re-tweaked the channels after factory reset) and I...

    Signal Strenght 374.38.1-em vs 374.35_4-sdk5

    What would be a good way to test for throughput? Would a an ookla speedtest run from a laptop be reasonably indicative? I too have been on the fence, hesitating from upgrading from 374.35_4-sdk5 which just works!
