    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    Just for the record, I'm running a 40% overclock towards 1400Mhz. I will run tests with 100mb and share results. I'm testing with samsung usb3 128gb flash drive. I'm running Merlin 380.69. I indeed enter those echo commands without that final number. I had made a mistake while copying the lines...

    Overclocking RT-AC87U Question

    Final update on this story: 30 days rock solid 1400Mhz OC. I still can't believe it can handle a 40% OC. Kind Regards and thanks to everyone!

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    Tested (no buffers) on 87U with nas performance tester. While wireless speed had boosted almost 100%, wired speeds decreased around 15% avg and showed erratic speeds (ie: 30/22/31/23 vs 29/30/31/28). Reverted back to defaults since I use wired transfers mostly. Regards and thanks for the tip!

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    Write error still showing up with 1GB swap file. Guess I'll have to try to repartition my flash drive to create a swap partition and mount it using either traditional approach (post-mount) or fstab one.

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    Thanks for this useful info Fitz. Are all those spaces between UUID/noen/swap/etc needed exactly like that? Kind Regards.

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    Thanks M@rco for your suggestion (nice idea!), and thanks again Colin for sharing your knowledge and bumping it even higher. I have set 1GB swap now. Will test it and if it fails I will try swap partition instead (I've already read how to accomplish it) Will report back with results! Thanks!!!

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    I was thinking of doing exactly that. I'm not 100% sure, but it seems to be Download Master whose triggering that issue. Tonight when I get home I'll try it and let you know how it goes. Regards and huge thanks for trying to help me!

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    If I understand correctly, some proccess (or kernet itselfs) "wants" to access/manage a larger memory space than available in swap file? My flash drive is formatted in NTFS, just in case its relevant. Regards! Ps: Thanks @sfx2000 for your previous answer. Honestly, I didn't understand much.

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    Thanks both for your replies. Advice taken john, didn't notice that much more accurate script. Besides, is it necessary to run it or theres no downside on rebooting without swapoff? My flash drive is connected 24/7 and I never take it off. Regards!

    Swap File Mount/Unmount

    Hi! So, I created a 256MB swap file on my usb2.0 flash drive (usb1 label) with the following sentences: dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/mnt/usb1/swapfile.swp bs=1k count=262144 mkswap /tmp/mnt/usb1/swapfile.swp swapon /tmp/mnt/usb1/swapfile.swp Then, I added this command to "post-mount" script in order...

    Cool my Merlin'd RT-AC68U down?

    @SaveMyRouter I do also had dramatic temps decrease using a notebook cooling pad. I noticed that, even though my 2.4 and cpu are the same as yours, my 5G sits MUCH more wormer , at this very moment they look like this: Wonder why your cooling is that much more effective on the 5Ghz side...

    @Dragster are you using Transmission or DownloadMaster? If DM it is, since a few days there is a new version available, you may want to give it a try. I do also had trouble with torrents (not router reboots but DM crashes), you can read them here =>...
