    It took 48 hours, but the mystery of the mass Asus router outage is solved

    I just logged into my neighbors RT-AC1900P, that I “loaned” him last year. It is running Merlin 386.5_2 and update checks are disabled. The uptime is 130 days :)

    It took 48 hours, but the mystery of the mass Asus router outage is solved

    Are the new firmware updates not compatible with the older units or is there something else going on?

    Unidentified connection

    I decided a long time ago that I will never have any samsung wifi products in my home. Their long history of causing wifi issues is well documented. :)

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.23285 (15-05-2023)

    If you are a long time Asus wifi router user, you soon learn it’s normal and not to rely on accurate information from it.

    What's going on with my RT-AC86U?

    Mine has never been higher than 69 degrees on my RT-AX86U Pro.

    What's going on with my RT-AC86U?

    I noticed the high temp condition reported. You might try using a small fan directed at the back of the router to see if it helps to reduce operating temps.

    That would make sense. At least it logs the drops regardless if it’s Skynet or the default settings of the firewall itself doing the dropping.

    amtm amtm step-by-step install guide - L&LD

    My instance of Skynet looks to be filtering incoming traffic and I am in a triple NAT setup. My AX86U Pro is in a DMZ on the ER605, which is in a DMZ on the ISP cable modem. Skynet logs clearly show blocked incoming traffic.

    Unable to downgrade firmware on GT-AX6000s - I'm at my wits end.

    It would not be used at my home, but a neighbor wants to “upgrade” his Netgear R7000 so it could be a candidate if the price is right. As for “replacing“ the wife…. we celebrated our 50th anniversary back in February. I would not want another one… she’s a keeper for sure. :)

    Unable to downgrade firmware on GT-AX6000s - I'm at my wits end.

    Yes I did, but if I can get one for say half price WTHN? :)

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Which firmware were you running prior to the upgrade? You should now be running 388.2_2 as it is the latest Merlin firmware. Also, make sure you are using a vpn client config that is compatible with openvpn 2.6 as this is the version used in the latest Merlin firmware. Also, it helps to know...

    Any understand repeater mode?

    I get the impression if he had existing cabling ( coax or ethernet ) or the ability to install cabling, he would have used it instead of deploying a wireless solution. But that may be a false assumption on my part.

    Any understand repeater mode?

    I think this statement answers the question of simply replacing the ISP router. That doesn’t appear to be an option. ”I have to rent the AT&T gateway (it authenticates me to their network)”

    Is 386.3_2 still the best merlin firmware for RT-AC68U?

    I have 386.7_2 running on a neighbor’s Asus RT-AC1900 and it has been very stable. I have no reason to update at this point.

    RT-AX86U Pro (merlin firmware: 388.1_0) as default aimesh & RT-AC68U as aimesh node

    I would go with an RT-AX86S if I wanted a lower cost option for an AiMesh node.
