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

    I'm just going to tag onto this discussion as it is related - but if a new thread is needed, I know someone will let me know. On my very first Merlin install (386.7), I manually set the swappiness value to 72 in the "/proc/sys/vm/swappiness" file. One afternoon, lo and behold, the free -w...

    Advice needed for DCD tainted log spam please

    Yes I had the same concern on my first Merlin install. Reset and reconfigure and don’t go into AiProtection and you will never see that message again.

    Advantages, disadvantages of installation

    I do not recommend blindly enabling IPv6 either - I had issues that only resolved when I disabled it on my old router, so I never had any desire to enable it now. (I'm afraid of what I don't know about tunneling) But you will not learn anything unless you use uncle google on some of the...

    Advantages, disadvantages of installation

    Well I started on this path because I had problems. My LAN was compromised and I looked at several ways to enhance or protect my router. DDWRT had features but my routers speed took too big a hit. Then I looked at using the router as an access point behind either a pfsense or sophos device. I...

    Great discussion! I love this board! I had been looking for problems with you know who (Alexa) and consistently finding and acting upon devices. Went to N only and away we go! I had assumed I still had some B's out there, but I guess they went out during my big hacker hunt. And the purchase...

    Skynet [Question] Skynet Deliberate Attack or Infected Device?

    I got treated like I saw a UFO when I was going through this same type of thing. If you get a new WAN IP and you are NOT using DDNS with the same hostname (so they can keep finding you), then you have a device with a cooperating process inside your network, probably using SSL connections. Do...

    Post Reset DHCP Reservation Restore

    I don’t mind a factory reset because I have a little process to recover most of my settings. In order to have a life past ‘home IT guy’ I use dhcp reservations to ease my troubleshooting as we have 32 devices always on and about 37 when everything is in use. Does anyone have a process to backup...
