    Overclocking RT-AC87U Question

    Just a small update on my OC story: Against all my expectations, I've been running rock solid @1400 for a whole week now (no restarts, no hang ups, nothing). Tried to make it hang by doing some heavy tasks simultaneously (hashing torrents, samba file copy, dnla streaming, etc.) but it seems to...

    Thanks once again. Little doubt: Do I have to copy the desired ipk file in opt/bin/ipkg before installing? Regards!

    Asus Download Master Update

    Thanks for your answer! You're right bout asking Asus, thought may be someone may shed a light based on similar experience. Regarding manual install, I was considering the option of installing .ipk via ssh console, just don't know how and if it's safe. Once again, relying on another's one...

    I pointed it out to nils's, as his OP stated "service-stop". Cheers!

    Asus RT-AC68 Overclock not working

    Please excuse my lack of knowdlege (I'm new here also), but shouldn't the script be named services-stop instead of service-stop? I guess that would explain the oc showing in gui (done by init-start) but not being really applied (done by services-stop). Once again, excuse me if I'm beeing...

    RT-AC87U slow remote web interface

    @pattiri => Guess that's the cause of my issue, slow upload speed. Amazing how heavy asuswrt interface is compared to others. @martinr => I know wan access is not the safest way, I changed access ports to custom ones in order to slightly minimize intrusion risks (before that I had almost...

    RT-AC87U slow remote web interface

    @martinr => No, I access through plain internet via WAN access. I didn't set up a VPN. @pattiri => I included that info suspecting it could be related with my issue. What I find odd is that I never had this issue with my previous routers (huawey, tp-link and netgear). Is asus gui THAT much...

    RT-AC87U slow remote web interface

    Hello once again! I've searching forum about this topic but didn't find the exact same issue. I'm facing very slow remote web interface, VERY slow (up to 30 seconds to load a page), and sometimes they do not even load and I have to refresh them in order to show up correctly. Considerations...

    Cool my Merlin'd RT-AC68U down?

    Thanks for your Answer Andrei. Could you please elaborate a bit about your Quantenna issues? I've hadn't tested it thoroughly yet (can't connect my most used devices due to FFC locking channels 144-161), but I would like to see if its working alright or be able to reproduce your issues...

    Cool my Merlin'd RT-AC68U down?

    You had 4 dead AC87u? Do you think temps were the culprit? I own a 87U also, and I had to put a cooling stand beneath it cause CPU would reach 90º C here in summer (5G VERY hot also). Now with the cooler it gets as hot as 60ºC "only". (Pics here) Hope it last for long! Cheers.

    Overclocking RT-AC87U Question

    Me too! Besides temps, 40% overclock without overvolt (or even with it) seems very uncommon. I'll stick with 1200 for a while, seams reasonable, after a few months of stability I might try to go beyond that mark. Cheers!

    Overclocking RT-AC87U Question

    Take a look at this two sources: https://github.com/kvic-z/goodies-asuswrt/wiki/Overclock-Asuswrt-Merlin-on-v378.56-and-beyond https://www.snbforums.com/threads/can-you-overclock-cpu-on-asus-rt-n66u.37174/ ¿¿¿1400??? Didn't even try it. Just 1200, 40% without overvolting seems a little hard to...

    RT-AC87U 5G Channel Selection

    Excuse my double post, I have one question regarding extension channel: Is it normal I can only select "auto" when it comes to extension channel? Is it possible my devices "see" control channel but does not "see" extension one? I made a quick test the first time I set up the router and...

    Overclocking RT-AC87U Question

    For me that's a 100% "go for it!". Benefit, even if small, is still benefit (at least from my point of view) If It's not shortening my unit's life expectancy, I shall proceed with it. Thanks for your kind and usefull support!!!

    RT-AC87U 5G Channel Selection

    Thanks for your support and your hint. I will continue to try to solve my problem without breaking any rules. I guess the approach to change my wi-fi dongle adapter and/or optimize router settings is the only way to go. Regards and thanks once again
