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

    Thanks for the explanation....I have been using the setting I mentioned on AC68U, RT-N66U and RT-N16 using merlin software and I never had any issues even though I was not setting it the right way. I only started seeing this issue once I tried using John's fork on RT-N16 and RT-N66U. I did some...

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

    I am just trying to connect my devices, like my phone, computer and TV, to the internet. So when I reboot while the DNS filtering is on, I am not able to establish a connection to the internet using any of the devices until I turn DNS filtering off first then turning it on. Here are my settings...

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

    I noticed an issue I constantly face when I used both V17E8 and V18B9. I have DNS based filtering set to on in the parental control page. Every time I need to reboot the router I am not able to establish a connection to any of my devices until I turn off DNS based filtering then clicking apply...

    Issues with upgrading from Merlin 378.56_2 to 380.59 on RT-N66U

    Hi. I was using Merlin 378.56_2 on my RT-N66U router and it worked fine. I tried upgrading to to 380.59 and did a factory restore and I noticed a very strange thing. When I set the channel control to Auto on the 2.4GHz band, the router keeps selecting channels 2,8, 9 and 10. It does not choose...

    AiProtection VS DNS Filtering

    Hi. I am not sure how these two services work or if they are related to each other. Do Aiprotection and DNS filtering services (OpenDNS and Norton Connect safe) work in conjunction with each other or does one override the other? If I turn Aiprotection on should I turn the DNS filtering...

    Which one should I get? Asus RT-N66U VS AC-56U

    Hi. I am using an RT-N16. It is serving me well but I would like to get one with a 5GHz band as I am living in a crowded 2.4GHz band neighborhood. Also I am getting some stuttering when I try using chromecast to cast/mirror from my phone to the tv as the video stream has to go from the...

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

    Ok. Here are my findings. I changed the number from 80 to 200 but I kept getting the same signal strength...around -55dbm. So I did the following: I installed 380.57.7_HGG-FINAL and did a factory reset just to see what would happen. I checked the nvram txpower and it gave me 70. I am assuming...

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

    Thanks for the explanation. There is no power level adjustment at the bottom of the professional page. Does that mean that the rt-n16 router has a constant tx power value? Or does it mean that the router adjusts that number automatically?

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

    I did a factory reset for the RT-N16 and adjusted the wireless settings in the General/professional pages to what it was before factory reset and here is what I got this time. if I try to use the command nvram get wl_txpower I get no result but if I use nvram get wl_TxPower I get a result of 80...

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

    I only use wifi on my phone when I am casting directly from the phone to the tv screen so I did take the measurements from the same location. Also, when i went from merlin 378.50 to 17E I did not do a factory reset. What should I do at this point? Everything was working fine when I did the...

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

    I am using an RT-N16. I had Merlin 378.50 installed on it. I decided to try out the 17E8 Fork and the first thing I noticed was was the wireless signal strength. With merlin I was getting a signal strength of around -55dbm using wifi analyzer on my phone. With 17E8 i was getting a way stronger...

    ASUS RT-AC68U hardware Version A2 or B1?

    I decided not to wait for the C1 so I went ahead and purchased the B1 version. It is showing 1000MHZ under CPU frequency. It is working great with merlin 378.56_2. Once the C1 comes out I will wait to see what the reviews will be like and based on that I will decide if it is worth upgrading to...
