    The last cru task always gets corrupted? ac68u ac86u ax86u

    I usually power off the route for 10 seconds then power it up, so it should not be a brown-out condition. I think for the the normal reboot, you have to click the reboot button on the WebUI, but I almost never do that, because if the router was dead, you couldn't access the WebUI anyway, if the...

    The last cru task always gets corrupted? ac68u ac86u ax86u

    On every occasion, unplug and re-plug the router power will cause the last cru task malformed as below. The last one means the last shown with cru l, so sometimes, others get corrupted but always at the last position of cru l. This problem lasts for several years, till current 386.7_2...

    How can I limit a clients total internet time per day on the router without using scheduling? For example, 4 hours to use whenever they want.

    I have a suggestion. This can be done with a shell script and crontab. Assuming 192.168.9.1 is the router IP, 192.168.9.100 is the device IP. 1. Make DHCP binding to the MAC address. 2. Use iptables to monitor the either INPUT or OUTPUT packet counts(activity) of target device(ip) 3...

    A Guide About Installing ZeroTier on ASUS AC68U Router

    That's strange, never had this condition before. With any conditions router just shouldn't lock you out of accessing from inside of LAN. You said you had to restart the router, not reset the router to the factory settings is that correct? So you didn't have these scripts in /jffs/scripts/ right...

    A Guide About Installing ZeroTier on ASUS AC68U Router

    Normally if you didn't put 0.0.0.0/0 in your zerotier Managed Routes, it shouldn't get you disconnected from existing network. For example, my zerotier Managed Routes is 10.9.8.0/24, also all my zertoier devices get addresses from this range. So could you please share more information about...

    A Guide About Installing ZeroTier on ASUS AC68U Router

    It seems that the Zerotier on your router is not functional. I have a question: Please run these commands on you router to do diagnostics zerotier-cli info zerotier-cli peers I also have noticed that you are using ac68u, this router can only run Zerotier up to 1.4.6, if it is runing with any...

    Bug? Asus RT-AC86U running 386.2.6 - Total loss of 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi after some days

    I have two ac86us and brought from two different counties and different year, 2.4GHz signal losing on both of them. I have swapped different versions of firmware and do all the factory reset, but haven't found available solution. Am I so lucky and got myself two fatally routers? And they always...

    Bug? Asus RT-AC86U running 386.2.6 - Total loss of 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi after some days

    Just for the record, ac86u wifi 2.4GHz lost signal out of blue. This problem has been existed for a few years and is still happening on latest firmware 386.7. When this bug got triggered, you would be disconnected for a moment on both 5GHz and 2.4GHz. Of course 2.4GHz has never been able to...

    A Guide About Installing ZeroTier on ASUS AC68U Router

    Zerotier is not working well with mobile phones, you either stuck with Zerotier network only or without Zerotier at all. My solution is tunneling back(shadowsocks, vmess or what ever) to one of your PCs or routers which is capable of Zerotier network, add proxy rules in those VPN clients and...

    A Guide About Installing ZeroTier on ASUS AC68U Router

    Your FORWARD CHAIN is too complex, you are better off adding a forward rule at the top, and you may see the number growing when it hits. No, what IP in your iOS doesn't matter, as long as your iOS device doesn't occupy the same IP sub-net addresses. 192.168.1.0/24 is not really a good choice...

    A Guide About Installing ZeroTier on ASUS AC68U Router

    No additional iptables rules needed, unless your iptables' FORWARD chain is ended up with a drop rule. An ip route "192.168.1.0/24 to 172.30.55.44" is needed. If you were talking about the zerotier WebUI console settings, leave it untouched. VPS external IP address. The same answer, VPS...

    Found a strange behavior of script running with crontab cru on ac86u and ax86u 386.3_2

    Since the grep didn't work in the 2nd call of psCHK() , and the awk also failed, there must be some malfunctioning. I just don't get it, why the 1st call of psCHK() worked, but the 2nd call didn't. And I can see both socat in the htop, but grep and awk didn't recognize them.

    Found a strange behavior of script running with crontab cru on ac86u and ax86u 386.3_2

    Since grep doesn't work properly, so I have to make alternative awk for testing. awk '$0 ~ /awk/{next} $0 ~ /'"$CMD_STR"'/{ print $0"<--awk"; err=0; exit} BEGIN{err=1} END{exit err}' Basically equals to this err=1; FOR (each line) { IF (this line contains word 'awk') THEN skip this line...

    Found a strange behavior of script running with crontab cru on ac86u and ax86u 386.3_2

    Thank you for replying. Yes I know ps aux is not a valid command for merlin-wrt. And the exit code $? will tell me it's an invalid command. I did that to determine ps for router or ps aux for RPI4B, because I would like this code can be run on both devices. Thanks, I will look into that...
