    RT-AC68U Stopped responding to DNS requests (Resolved 11/17/2017)

    This may not apply to you but Level 3 (internet backbone) had massive problems 24hrs ago and still recovering (https://www.wired.com/story/how-a-tiny-error-shut-off-the-internet-for-parts-of-the-us/). I had similar DNS problems you describe, but better now. I have the same router, so not sure if...

    [alpha] Early preview builds for Asuswrt-Merlin 380.66

    I think about this often. All I know is the device drivers are closed-source blobs and I believe they (the BC engineers) set these blobs to balance optimal performance (given government requirements for signal strength) while managing interference, receive strength, cpu workload, heat, life...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.65 is now available

    thank you. I thought I might be a tad bit out there thinking exactly this. there were times the router let me in with no authentication, or spits out garbage, or both. Thought it might be Firefox until it happened on Android tablet with Chrome browser.

    trendmicro any way to stop it?

    I noticed something similar many firmwares ago but I can't remember what it was about. I think* (speculating with no proof and no coding background) it's a bug related to the EULA (End User License Agreement) from Trend Micro. Once you agree to the EULA, on any module, it opens the door to the...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.65 is now available

    I just clicked login and the router directed me here: http://192.168.1.1/ajax_wificlients.asp It shows numbers from an array containing wifi devices: dataarray24 = [" ","0","0","-91","1","E0:3F:49: : : ","AP"]; wificlients24 = [["80:D2:1D: : ...

    State of the project - 2016 in review

    it would be interesting statistically if you put a toggle switch on your update page that allows the user to opt-in to the router generating a pseudo-random number w/model number that pings your server one time, as a counter.. maybe once per week or so on the update check. I think you will...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.64 Beta is now available

    Merlin will always let you know - check his release notes on the 1st post of each new release thread. I think some people always overlook that. On your other question, (coming from an older version), there is no set procedure because some people come from REALLY old versions, or versions that...

    Running out of NVRAM

    these routers can serve 200 people, but I don't know if they can efficiently serve 200 people...like the engineers actually sought this capability at the planning stage, Asus agreed with it, and the out-the-door price is commensurate with that. It seems not, but I don't know - what about 250...

    Asus RT-AC68U and horrible 802.11ac range?

    I have the Asus RT-AC68U like you and running Merlin 380.59. One thing that helped is finding a wireless signal strength indicator for Android (or your equivalent on the App Store). Install it on your phone and you can walk around the house checking signal strength, observe any changes in the...

    Happy 4th anniversary to us!

    I would like to echo this..I'm continually amazed you never said "the heck with this sh--" when you read some of the replies/questions in threads. and then multiply that by twitter, other forums, fb, etc...I would not have the strength.

    UPnP Malfunctioning?

    kind of vague but I guess you wanted to be brief so some options might be: 1. Factory default restore / minimal router setup - use LAN not wireless, no torrents, usb drives disconnected, VPN off 2. Turn off IPV6 and use IPv4 3. Re-verify and then verify again there is no Windows firewall or...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.58 is now available

    some of us have older revision/model 68Us which were incompatible with the Broadcom 380.57 update, although some with the same revision/model had zero problems, so it's unclear. CTF = Cut Through Forwarding http://www.snbforums.com/threads/broadcoms-hardware-acceleration.18144/

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.58 is now available

    it's not necessarily a firmware upgrade problem, although it could be. A reboot won't hurt, but should not be necessary, maybe give it a try - or go to your wireless device(s) and restart them, or remove/redo the connection on the device, it's probably traversing through old stored values for...

    Fork 380.57 HGG-FINAL

    Compelling arguments on both sides, not being sarcastic. Some understand the risks and some are trying to protect others who are less knowledgeable and get proper accreditation to individual authors. What's missing is the opinion of the snbforums site Administrator whose word is final. For...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.57 is now available

    you solved it, thank you. I wondered why NAT Acceleration was set to Auto (on) by default and I switched it off. It's back to Auto (on) now... but now I'm curious why in the world NA has anything to do with 2.4GHz radio/DHCP.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.57 is now available

    I have revision A1 (white sticker on the back) and 2.4Ghz radio is borked. Devices are connected but the 2.4GHz radio won't pass DHCP information. Factory-default reset plus multiple restarts - everything else working great including 5GHz. AC68U Firmware: 380.57, coming from 378.56_2 CPU...
