    NTP blocked; Alternatives to ntpd for updating time?

    In our dorm room we had a guy who never did anything network related take care of the network for our dorm. Needless to say, NTP was blocked and buffer bloat was more than horrible. He also tried to transmit 100 Mbps to rooms through cat3 cables and we got massive packet loss. So ya, it does...

    DNScrypt dnscrypt installer for asuswrt

    I know I was using dnscrypt before and it never crashed. I can't tell if its the 384.5 beta 2 update or what, but you might be on to something.

    USB Wireless adapter?

    Thank you for your answer. I am wondering, mostly because I never had luck with one or 2 spatial streams adapters, they always seemed to disconnect for me. Is it a driver or adapter problem or in general if you use one or two antenna, you are more prone to instability?

    USB Wireless adapter?

    Unfortunately, a router in bridge mode is not an option. I got the USB-AC68 today. It works really well. It is quite big though, as in not allowing me to use some USB ports. Yes, I know there is an extender and I am using that right now. So everything is fine. However, IF I wanted something...

    USB Wireless adapter?

    thank you is the latency stable? if you run a ping test from the adapter to the router do you get a lot of jitter? I never used usb wifi but I heard bad things about them a few years ago so I am a bit cautious.

    USB Wireless adapter?

    Currently I have an Asus RT-AC86U. I am looking for a very very good and stable USB Wireless Adapter to move around on multiple computers. I currently have a TP Link T9E on this one and I get very good transfer speed. The link is reported to be 1300/1300 at around 5 meters away. However, I am...

    DNScrypt dnscrypt installer for asuswrt

    DNSCrypt keeps crashing on my AC86U. Totally killing the internet. When I try to access the DNSCrypt menu, it is empty. I am using AMTM, Ab-solution with AB-Maximum, Pixelserv and Skynet. Although the ram gets really low, I created a swap file using Skynet so it shouldnt be causing any problems.

    Cloudflare 1.1.1.1, DNS-Over-TLS, & Unbound

    Is there a guide on how to use this on RMerlin? I couldnt get odhcpd to install on the AC86U, so I dunno. Sorry for my dumb question, but if Unbound provides DNS over TLS, wouldnt that replace DNSCrypt? Or is it simply using DNS over TLS for a different part of the entire chain?

    [Preview 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 early test builds

    It is currently set to 20/40/80, but yes, I will try right now. Thanks. However, *if* this fixes the problem, what can I possibly do to fix this issue? I like the wider bandwidth for file transfers. I can't tell if it would be an issue with my adapter (but it works with other routers) or the...

    [Preview 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 early test builds

    I manually tried them all one by one :p Unfortunately, same thing happens. :( Got universal beamforming disabled. Airtime fairness disable and MU-MIMO disabled too. Signal is very strong too. Router is relatively close.

    [Preview 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 early test builds

    Its only on the 5ghz band tho. IPv6 is also disabled. On ALL builds ever tested from asus and rmerlin This is annoying because I dont have any other 5ghz device I can actually run tests on. I used to have the same issue with my AC87U. It got fixed after some firmware updates. However, I got...

    [Preview 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 early test builds

    Welp, thats unfortunate. My AC86U disconnected 3 times on 5ghz today. I guess its not fixed yet. I dunno what else I can change. MU-MIMO is off and so is universal beamforming and airtime fairness. :S I mean it doesn't actually disconnect, but I do get 100% packet loss for ~3 secs and...

    [Preview 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 early test builds

    Upgraded on my AC86U. So far so good. I think my 5ghz is more stable, but its too early to tell. I haven't disconnected so far, usually its 3-4 times (once every few hours) a day for a few seconds.

    What type of thumb drive For jffs ?

    I got a AC86U too. I am wondering myself, does the USB 3.0 speed matters for stuff like Ab-solution, skynet, dnscrypt and pixelserv? I am guessing most of the things are already loading in ram, but I don't know how often it access the flash drive, considering I do have a swap file on it (only...

    Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) yet again !!!

    Hmm, interesting that the AC86U is not on the list. Same with the newest routers. Did they just not get tested or is it fixed on those?
