    MerlinAU MerlinAU v1.2.6 - The Ultimate Firmware Auto-Updater (**Thread closed due to age**)

    One of my cousins has the RT-AX86S router and he had no trouble doing the latest F/W update via MerlinAU. Here's a screenshot showing the lines in the logfile that captured the RAM info as the script ran successfully: Notice that the amount of "RAM Available" (which is what actually matters)...

    amtm amtm 4.9 - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu, June 30, 2024 (locked thread)

    Well, technically, the trailing $ char is not really necessary in those specific grep & sed statements. When trying to find a match for the corresponding comment string appended to the commands embedded in the scripts, the $ is OK to have but the code also works fine without it. In cases where...

    amtm amtm 4.9 - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu, June 30, 2024 (locked thread)

    Ah, yes; very good point. The code should clean up after itself.

    amtm amtm 4.9 - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu, June 30, 2024 (locked thread)

    Yes, I see now that @Jack Yaz has already merged the PR and updated his master branch as well so all source files in both develop & master are now in sync. Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "not all the sed lines." If you're referring to the bug fix, as of this writing the...

    amtm amtm 4.9 - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu, June 30, 2024 (locked thread)

    This bug was introduced on 2022-Jan-05 with changes in PR #22: https://github.com/jackyaz/scMerlin/pull/22/commits/1b98ca368b2f68ad94a12f87c8936326591a730e But those changes never made it to the master branch so they're found only in the "2.4.1" version from @JackYaz's develop branch. When...

    YazDHCP YazDHCP - feature expansion of DHCP assignments (increasing limit on the number of DHCP reservations)

    On the latest "1.0.6" version, YazDHCP has the option to back up & restore custom user icons, and using this feature includes backing up the custom client names. Note that you must have at least one custom user icon set up for the "back up & restore" option to be enabled. See the following post...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.12_6 is now available for AC models

    If you use a high-capacity USB-attached drive for the logfile path, you can log the stats every 15 minutes, or whatever you think is appropriate for your case. Not on routers, but I've diagnosed OOM crashes that have happened within hours of the initial event that leads to the crash. But if it...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.12_6 is now available for AC models

    I have a shell script that I've used in the past for diagnostics purposes to monitor & check scenarios leading to OOM crashes. The script takes a snapshot of RAM usage stats from a few sources and logs it into a file. When running as a cron job (e.g. logging every hour), it can provide clues...

    scMerlin scMerlin 2.5.8 - Service and script control menu for Asuswrt-Merlin, October 20, 2024

    Do you know if this same problem also happens with the previous "2.4.1" version from @Jack Yaz's 'develop' branch? I'm curious about whether or not this is a new problem with the "2.5.0" version. As others have already stated, the best way is to uninstall & reinstall each add-on. However, if...

    RT-AX88U creates a lot of dropbear processes after update

    When you have such a situation with many rogue processes, you should try to do a more targeted search on the syslog files (assuming the log rotation has not yet deleted the relevant entries). For example, to get relevant info from the dropbear process entries still found in the syslog files...

    MerlinAU MerlinAU v1.2.6 - The Ultimate Firmware Auto-Updater (**Thread closed due to age**)

    I understand your personal skepticism & distrust about donating to some charity organizations that may not have full transparency WRT where the money goes & how it is spent. And you're right about being cautious as there have been several cases over the years where mismanagement, fraud, or...

    MerlinAU MerlinAU v1.2.6 - The Ultimate Firmware Auto-Updater (**Thread closed due to age**)

    Would it be OK to provide a couple of charity donation links instead of setting up a personal PayPal account? Or is that against the rules on this forum? Who is the person that would know the answer to that question? @thiggins? I'd rather have people donate to support a very worthy cause. In...

    Where to start with automatic scripting for AsusWRT-Merlin

    Despite your personal experience and anecdotal evidence, there's a very large body of work & analysis that can be found in peer-reviewed case studies & literature regarding S/W development & coding best practices that completely refute your general statement that functions should be called more...

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.5.10 -Mar 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! (**Thread closed due to age**)

    Yeah, I get that error message in the syslog every time I run the ''blkid" command just by itself on the SSH terminal window. So far the "error" seems harmless because the command runs just fine and you get the desired output. IOW, the error message comes from the blkid command, regardless of...

    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.5.10 -Mar 1, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! (**Thread closed due to age**)

    I just had an idea to improve the detection of the "volume labels" for mounted USB drive partitions. Give me about 10 minutes & I'll submit a PR. UPDATE: GitHub PR #21 has been submitted to 'develop' branch.

    MerlinAU MerlinAU v1.2.6 - The Ultimate Firmware Auto-Updater (**Thread closed due to age**)

    I appreciate the offer. I never have had a need for a PayPal account so far, but I'll set one up over the weekend. Thanks.

    Where to start with automatic scripting for AsusWRT-Merlin

    In S/W engineering, modularity is a basic design principle & a coding technique whose primary goal is to avoid writing large monolithic applications. This is accomplished by splitting the source code into smaller, loosely coupled but cohesive & more manageable functional units that allow you to...

    amtm AMTM doesn't like scMerlin Beta Release

    In case you need some release notes if/when you decide to issue the next scMerlin 2.4.1 version (hopefully with @Jack Yaz's blessings :>), the following covers the changes in the PRs that I submitted: 1) NEW code to support AXE-class Tri-Band & Quad-Band routers (e.g. GT-AXE11000, GT-AXE16000)...
