    Keep getting web page when I log in to router.

    I must have misunderstood the issue. It thought it was "where is my login page"; the phone app can find the router thats all..Im not promoting it as a daily administrative platform

    Keep getting web page when I log in to router.

    First - install the Asus router app on your phone and join one of the SSIDs the router is broadcasting. It usually finds the router no matter what. Make sure the PC/Laptop you are using is set for DHCP for IP and DNS. Otherwise, try http://IP address ; https://IP address:8443 using chrome or...

    wan-event dynamic script

    Try backtics ` (to the left of the 1 key) export wan_real_ip="$(nvram get wan0_realip_ip)" export wan_real_ip=`"$(nvram get wan0_realip_ip)"` or maybe export wan_real_ip=`$(nvram get wan0_realip_ip)` NOT the single quote!!!

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Thanks for the information. I will review my logs and see where the other 3 blocks were marked bad and see how close/far the events are. UPDATE: Logs start about March 5th - one bad block marked April 2nd and now - May 3rd. I will call Asus tomorrow and see if I have warranty coverage. It's...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Updated to 388.2 over the weekend, and it seems I got some type of driver error early this morning - it generated a dump to screen and didn't reboot the router. May 3 01:41:56 irongate kernel: bcm63xx_nand ff801800.nand: program failed at 8340600 May 3 01:41:56 irongate kernel: ubi0 error...

    wan-event dynamic script

    Yes, I would say you want to evaluate the two arguments passed and wait for $1 =0 and $2 = "connected" Here is a log extract that shows a WAN event sequence - there can be several loops thru the process before you get connected. May 5 00:09:30 gate rc_service: wanduck 1507:notifty_rc...

    Diversion blocklist wont update after Skynet update

    I have received a status email for the last 3 Fridays stating "something failed during the blocking list update" and "Waiting for Skynet" pretty much as the cause. Ended up performing a forced update to Skynet to get it to release the file lock in a timely manner. My router has an 18-day...

    Alternative to pfsense/Opnsense

    I considered pfSense but decided to give Merlin a try and with Skynet and Diversion added it pretty much addresses the issues I was having. I haven't seen my router get too busy and make me think I need to offload any processes, and my networking doesn't have high requirements for subnets...

    General CRU/SSH weirdness and questions

    Well, as is the tradition on this forum, I have been taught to fish. I can understand the script and what it is doing and why. But yes - one final question. How do I learn how to use the various parts of syntax ('(+ for date without accidentally crashing NTPD or setting my clock to some time...

    General CRU/SSH weirdness and questions

    First - let me simply say THANK YOU for this wonderful example. I will spend the coming weeks dissecting this snippet to find out how it works. I had just started to investigate the -D, but I was no where close to what this script does. Secondly - Coming from a PowerShell background: OH MY GOSH!

    General CRU/SSH weirdness and questions

    OK..I have some general questions that seem to fit here. 1 - I have read several articles online about writing a cron entry (cru a) that will execute the last particular day (lets say Sat) of the month.. I cant get anything I find to work like 6L or SatL; when I search for examples of cron/cru...

    [Bug] GT-AX6000 - swappiness=0 causing issues when swap is needed

    Wow - 300 mb! My swap starts at about 90% memory usage and allocates about 4mb initially and grows to about 20+- mb over time. On the prior version of Merlin GT-AX6000_386.7_2, Swapping would start at about 20 mb and the highest I saw was 55 mb. Maybe a hardware difference, but I wish mine...

    Email Notice from SSH event

    I want to configure the router to email when an SSH session is established (and maybe ended) but I do not find any documentation for ssh-event like wan-event has written. I saw a thread on the topic when I was setting up VPN to notify, but can't find it now. Bad search skills, I'm sure.

    Wow..that applet was thrashing my router! My outbound traffic dropped by 2/3rds and cpu went back to single digits.

    Diversion High Process count for Diversion

    Well...if they are just stats, I can do without it and will uninstall. ...and I got another process since the original post - so 174. Thanks

    Diversion High Process count for Diversion

    I was working on learning AWK and stumbled onto a high count of Diversion processes using the command " ps | awk ' /Div/, count++ ;END{ print count}' " I have 173 diversion processes. Is this normal?

    ovpn-server log errors meaning?

    Go to NETWORK TOOLS in the management GUI and click on the NETSTAT tab. Check (select) Display Listening Sockets and display all sockets and click DIAGNOSE. In the middle column you will have something in octet format x.x.x.x: port_being_used, or it will have the name of the service like...
