    Spanning-Tree Protocol On or Off

    I had Traffic Statistics turned off anyway. Seems I like I tried turning on Traffic Statistics and still had FA working. Thanks for the input....

    Spanning-Tree Protocol On or Off

    Thanks for all the input. I turned off Spanning-Tree Protocol and now have the hardware acceleration. Didn't seem to cause any problems turning Spanning-Tree Protocol off, but I really can't tell any difference in the performance of the router.

    Spanning-Tree Protocol On or Off

    No, I did not come across that one. Maybe I am missing something, but it says, "It should have no impact on your network unless you have an additional switch, or you have loops in your network". By "additional switch" does that mean more than one switch? I only have one 8 port switch plugged...

    Spanning-Tree Protocol On or Off

    I have an ASUS RT-AC87 router with a Netgear 8 port unmanaged switch plugged into the router. The switch has 3 devices plugged into it, 2 desktop computers and a printer. My question is, should I have Spanning-Tree Protocol turned on or off? The reason I ask is because I believe if...

    [Beta] [DLNA] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61 Beta 2 - DLNA feedback ONLY

    To RMerlin and john9527, thanks for looking into the media server on my RT-AC87 "pinging" my computer every 3 seconds. I have since flashed with 380.61 Beta 2 and that fixed the problem (pings the computer about every 600 seconds now). I never had any problems streaming anything even when it was...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61 Beta is now available

    I usually only get multiple ones (all greyed out except for one) when I reboot, power cycle or flash the router. And even then, I do not have the problem with version .59. Thanks for your input...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61 Beta is now available

    Yes, sometimes there have been multiple copies of the RT-AC87U in Devices and Printers that are greyed out except usually for one. I usually highlight the greyed out ones, right click and select Remove this Device and remove all the greyed out ones. No change though. Router still "pings" the...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61 Beta is now available

    No new DLNA client or OS upgrade (no new drivers or anything). This is desktop computer running Windows 10 Pro. I just know I can flash the RT-AC87U with Firmware 380.59 and the notify interval happens as you said about every 600 seconds. Flash the router with 380.60 or any of the 380.61 builds...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61 Beta is now available

    I ask this question before, but have another question about it, so will post again. About every 5 seconds my router (ASUS RT-AC87U) seems to "ping" my desktop computer (Win10 Pro). Looking at task manager it shows on the Receive when monitoring the Ethernet card (Intel i217-V). It seems to be...

    [Alpha] Preview builds for Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61

    I was thinking the same thing, that it was the media server broadcasting that it is out there. No, I do not have the problem with firmware 380.59 (seems like it just "pings" the computer every once in awhile, nothing like every 5 seconds) only with 380.60 beta 2 and 380.61 alpha 2. You may be...

    [Alpha] Preview builds for Asuswrt-Merlin 380.61

    I have an ASUS RT-AC87U router. When using firmware 380.60 Beta 2 or 380.61 Alpha 2 the router seems to "ping" my desktop computer (Win 10) about every 3 to 5 seconds. When I look at task manager/Ethernet it shows something pinging the Receive. I will paste a picture of the task manager...

    New RT-N66U Firmware release from Asus

    The B1 is the older version of the RT-N66U, right? Mine is about a year old. Anyway, the webpage won't let me download the new firmware my clicking Global. And I am not going to install the download manager or P2P to download it (those seem to work, click Global just does nothing) thanks...

    New RT-N66U Firmware release from Asus

    Can you tell me where this 3.0.0.4.372 firmware is for the RT-N66U? I can't seem to locate it on the ASUS web page. Thanks......

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.372.30_2

    Thanks for looking into it. It's not a big deal, as the router seems to be working fine and wireless seems better. Just that the client list use to come up really quick, now it doesn't or I have click refresh several times. The only DHCP reservation I have is the network printer and its name...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.372.30_2

    I get this error message: SCRIPT5007: Unable to get property 'length' of undefined or null reference nameresolv.js, line 64 character 17 Not sure why there would be a device with an invalid name. I just update to the new firmware this weekend, before that I was running that last beta...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.372.30_2

    I flashed to 3.0.04.372.30_2 firmware, but the bug with IE and showing the Client Status is still there. Pic 1 shows after I click the Clients icon on the Network Map page. I left it there for 45 minutes and as you can see from the pic, it's still just showing the Refresh button with the cursor...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.372.30_2

    I understand what you are saying. But this use to show the Client list almost right away no matter how many Clients were connected. Sometimes it would take awhile to show the correct icon or name for a Client (instead of the MAC address), but the list would come up almost right away. Seems to be...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.372.30_2

    Bug with IE and new Firmware On the Network Map page at bottom left where it has number of Clients, the number of clients seems to be right, but when I click the icon to show the Client Status all I get is the Refresh button showing with the busy circling cursor to the right of it. It just...
