    BACKUPMON BACKUPMON v1.8.20 -Oct 12, 2024- Backup/Restore your Router: JFFS + NVRAM + External USB Drive! CIFS/SMB/NFS! (Now available in AMTM!)

    BACKUPMON saves the day! A scribe update hosed my the syslog-ng.conf on the 10th, in trying to fix it last night. I reinstalled it, which over wrote the syslog-ng.d and logrotate.d directories back to default. Which fixed scribe, as it rebuilt syslog-ng.conf (now working post 4.7), but it also...

    Wifi ax 2.4G real life speed vs Wifi n 2.4G

    Yes, and that's one of those variables, amongst many others, and why I mention mine ;) But based on his SpeedTest results (BT, Ilkley, Talk Straight) I'm thinking UK 🤷‍♂️

    More like, attenuating it or not, as it won't exceed (in my case FCC) regulatory signal strength...

    Wifi ax 2.4G real life speed vs Wifi n 2.4G

    Best I get on my cheap Android Tablets 2.4Ghz AX single 40Mhz, 229Mbs in both directions and stable. But I had to work for it, optimizing WiFi signals on both bands for MY environment (using ASUS / Merlin Site Survey and various other tools to determine best channel to use in MY envronment and...

    GT-AX6000 | "WiFi Radar" feature has been removed in 5-22-24 firmware update

    At fiirst glance This newer version, shows 6Mhz support and didn't need the work/batch file around for the date. But can't say for sure as there is no 6Mhz nearby or so it seems. But did need to run it as an admin under Win10 on my rig, not so on Win11 wife's laptop, it came right up.

    [USA] Considering a move to ATT Fiber. Anyone use this setup and willing to answer a few questions?

    I had a well established LAN and was not about to change all the non-DHCP devices to a different subnet, so I changed the Gateway. If I need to I can get to it from the LAN but I've rarely ever needed to. Pass-through mode in my case, and my AX88u vastly out performs the BGW210 I have, and...

    Best way to update firmware in an AiMesh system

    I've done router first, and other times I've done nodes first, more often than not, nodes first since moving to 388.x for consistency. Since you reference Merlin Firmware, let me add that I don't think the Mobile App is officiallly supported as it's mentioned in the YouTube video, I figured I...

    Compatibility Findings with AddOns with GT-BE98 Pro

    Works as intended, regardless of location, USB or JFFS, all three working!

    Compatibility Findings with AddOns with GT-BE98 Pro

    They're not all the same in that the message about the size was with spdmerlin only, at least it didn't happen with the others as I was testing. But essentially, yes. That same block of code. In conmon for example as I changed the storage area it downloaded an update to the DB engine as it...

    Compatibility Findings with AddOns with GT-BE98 Pro

    No just more focused testing to see it... Before, During, After, Common core functionality is working fine, but as I chage the target and reset the database to start fresh, the database doesn't clear. It manifests a little differently in spdmerlin and ntpmerlin but the overall effect is the...

    Compatibility Findings with AddOns with GT-BE98 Pro

    Also found the same issues with resetting the DB and Stats on conmon and ntpmerlin. Didn't do regression testing, so just with the devlope version as that's al I tested, but I suspect its the samething that was happenning with spdnerlin.

    Compatibility Findings with AddOns with GT-BE98 Pro

    Just noticed, both branches, 4.4.5 and 4.4.6, if storage location is set to USB for stats and config, and you choose option RT - to Reset spdMerlin database / delete all data. It fails with "Database size exceeds available space. 260.0KB is required to create backup." but all things being...

    Another RT-AX86U Slow Speeds (<400mbs)

    This was happening with stock Asuswrt and on Merlin, went back and forth a few times. Finally back on Merlin I found the setting exposed via SCMerlin And blanked all the settings, been fine ever since. It’s on the forum somewhere, just on my phone now but I can find it later…

    Another RT-AX86U Slow Speeds (<400mbs)

    I had something similar happen a while back, normally was geeting 900+ at the router and wired devices down stream. Then when I updated the firmware from 386.x to 388.x somehow somwhere Qos was enabled and some old settings got applied as well, took forever to figure out. But stumbled across the...

    Updated scMerlin to 2.5.5 - syslog stops at 'syslogd exiting'

    Had this happen with the Beta after the reboot, after about 30 minutes Skynet, SPDMerlin started working again, didn't make much out of it. But now someone else had something similar. Today after updating to 2.5.5. same thing, and I almost reinstalled Scribe/UIScribe. Instead I SSH'd in and...

    fiber vs cable

    Having used both (not to mention DSL back in the day 1Mb/256K), and now on 1Gb symetrical fiber. It has been very reliable over the last few years, can only remember one outtage (lighring strike), even made it through a few hurricanes. On Cable had an outtage every few months back in the day...

    [ 3004.388.8 alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    After a quick check of the usual suspects, running solid on the Router and Nodes, add on scripts were checked and updated before applying the Alpha all around. Only 11 Mins in, all good so far, after a few hours will dig a little deeper

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    I don’t think this consumer bade router can do much more anyway, getting 940Mbps of my 1Gb but had to disable anything related to the BWDPI engine, QoS for example and Trend Micro Protections, don’t think there’s enough CPU, remember consumer based

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    😉 Ha! Best I see is 500-700 Mbps on 5Ghz with 2 streams at 80mhz, on a iPhone. Not much more than that on the Laptop with a link speed of 2402/2402 also 2 streams but at 160Mhz 1Gb fiber being a limiting factor / wired client 1GbE seeing ~940Mbps in both directions I wish I could get the...
