    Does Merlin work with the iOS mobile Asus Network App?

    ***** NB: If you updated the iOS app today, that latest version is incompatible with the current version of Merlin firmware. (There was a recent update to the stock firmware, and that firmware’s codebase is required for compatibility with latest version of the iOS app. The current Merlin...

    Are you able to log on to the Web GUI in a mobile browser using your iOS device?

    Entware Can't update Entware package Apache

    Ummmm … isn’t this whole reason those two packages are marked “hold” — aka, to stop people from updating them, since, by updating them, you create this other problem? i feel like the process that y’all have described above is the equivalent of removing a speed limiter from a go kart …: “Hey...

    YazFi How do you access a YazFi diagnostic file?

    THANK YOU — I’m sure I’ll be back later with the actual problem, now that I can (presumably/pretend to) locate it LOL

    YazFi How do you access a YazFi diagnostic file?

    This is probably a simple question, but … how do you access the YazFi diagnostic file? I see where to create one, and the pass phrase it provides, … but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to open/access it. (Annnnndddd……… I want to access it because any time I set “client isolation”...

    Lancelot - VPN Remote (iOS app)

    That’s literally what brought me here. (Whether or not the concern is warranted—I have no idea. Lol) Does anyone have any alternatives they like? Or a comparable/related iOS widget shortcut/script?

    Lancelot - VPN Remote (iOS app)

    Has anyone downloaded this app? Is it any good? Thanks. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lancelot-vpn-remote/id1578167752

    DNS Filter (DNS over TLS, port 853)

    So if you enable DNSfilter and choose Quad9, those queries will still be dns-over-tls? [Right now I have DNSfilter disabled as I mistakenly(?) believed that DNSfilter didn’t allow for dns-over-tls…] #DNSoverMyHead

    Release ASUS RT-AC86U 3.0.0.4.386.45956 2021/11/25

    Why wouldn’t they be? This is still a supported model — both asuswrt-official AND asuswrt-merlin.

    DNS-OVER-TLS AND VPN — 3.0.0.4.386.45956

    DNS-OVER-TLS AND VPN — 3.0.0.4.386.45956

    No tin foil hat here. And am under no illusion about privacy — nor do I care about “my privacy.” I let alllll hang out. If you can’t own your actions, then you shouldn’t be doin’ ‘em. My question is purely about BEST PRACTICES for settings on my router, with an eye on maintaining a secure...

    Can a VPN from a desktop client hide activity from Trend Micro on ASUS routers

    This question is important for non-privacy reasons, (too): the ability of AiProtection to protect your network. If AiProtect can’t see traffic inside the user-based VPN, then likewise, it can’t protect that client. Just to clarify—If VPN is at the router-level, AiProtect sees your traffic and...

    DNS-OVER-TLS AND VPN — 3.0.0.4.386.45956

    All I wanna know: is there any reason that I’d want to enable DoT on the router if I already use a (PIA) VPN on my climbers (…and that VPN provides DNS as part of its service)? THANKS

    DNS-OVER-TLS AND VPN — 3.0.0.4.386.45956

    Now that asuswrt-official [RT-AC86U] supports DNS-over-TLS …. well, actually, do we care? What I mean to say is: If I already use a VPN (PIA)—currently only on individual clients since I’m using the ASUS stock firmware again—whereby DNS lookups are encrypted, (by the VPN—to the VPN DNS), … (1)...

    PIA Smart DNS Configuration

    Has anyone gotten PIA SmartDNS to work on a device connected to a router running asuswrt stock firmware? [RT-AC86U] ? Thanks
  17. J

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.3 is now available

    Not so incidentally, this is the way the kill switch works in the actual PIA VPN app, too: If your VPN disconnects and the kill switch was on, the kill switch prevents the device from accessing the internet. If, however, you disconnect manually … the kill switch is not triggered.
