    Here you go, sir: I think you are right, likely an AXE16000 quirk, it's probably something simple like not calling the expected WAN interface with the correct name or some such thing.

    Nope, nothing weird at all. Everything looks peachy. It's just odd!

    Haha, that's funny--true, at least the internet complaints have stopped. So here's the deal, it looks like the script is unable to recover from WAN downtime. It started today at 1930 AST and hasn't yet stopped at 2200 AST: I got busy and wasn't paying attention until just before bedtime :/...

    Well so far stable with Atlanta at 3 hours according to the Last Reset info, I think I am good, but we will see. I'll increase the numbers if there's an issue but I'm a happy camper. It's been a while since I installed Entware and it's created a world of possibilities, especially on a beast...

    So this is what I was saying that it went into a loop and the log reports it as a ping issue--but it's not--since I increased the ping value to 300 the script stabilized. It only has a problem when the WAN goes down. The entries above are the result. The average ping times across the five...

    Alright, it's settled in and perfect now. Thank you, so much! It's a Godsend, really. I always wanted to randomly switch servers (can I limit how often it changes the servers?) The biggest problem I wanted this script to fix was that my WAN seems to go down frequently (it's a 200 Mbps fiber...

    Hi, thanks! It's the default amtm fw variant that comes with 386.8 on the AXE16000. OK, I installed JQ and it's fine now and working up to the populating of random slots but connections keep resetting for some reason. Since I checked all pre-populated VPN slots for connectivity before the...

    OK, I am getting the following errors: During setup: /jffs/scripts/vpnmon-r2.sh: eval: line 1: jq: not found In the log: Thu Sep 22 12:30:05 AST 2022 - VPNMON-R2 ----------> ERROR: NordVPN.txt list is blank! What am I doing wrong, I wonder?

    Quick question--if I only want to randomly connect to US-based servers, that's possible, right? Finishing up the installation now, can't wait! Edit: Never mind, it was super-simple in the installation as default. Thanks!

    Can I use crontab to switch VPN clients on a schedule?

    Alright then, I will give it a shot!

    Can I use crontab to switch VPN clients on a schedule?

    This is great! Are the Nord servers in a list fed to your script or are they pulled directly from Nord? This could really help me out!

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.8 is now available for specific models

    I have just migrated to the AXE16000. VPN speed is up from ~151 Mbps to 181 Mbps on a 200 Mbps connection. This is the highest I have ever seen, at least here in the Middle East.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.8 is now available for specific models

    Here are mine. 24 degrees ambient room temp. Kinda high and I don't remember what they were on older firmware. I do live in the Middle East, though, where 50 degrees is normal outside during August. I have an AC5300 on the older firmware and AI Mesh is fine.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.8 is now available for specific models

    Not sure who your VPN provider is but I remember I have had similar issues (which remain to this day) with my AX88U. At least for XVPN it doesn't work outside of the box and requires some custom config parameters at the bottom. See this thread for details...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.8 is now available for specific models

    Upgraded over 386.7_2 -- I think this was probably the fastest Merlin upgrade on any of my devices, ever. Literally took a couple of minutes. Everything looks good. Can't wait to try it on my AXE16000 when it comes in next week! OpenVPN speed using ExpressVPN is 150 Mbps on a 200 Mbps...

    Any news on this, guys? Looking to add to the AIMesh currently managed by my Merlin-based AX88.

    Thanks for the tip but I was trying this at about a meter away and unfortunately it just didn't work. Who knows. It could be anything at this point. Sent from my GM1917 using Tapatalk

    I don't think so because we have an example above that works fine. Sent from my GM1917 using Tapatalk
