    Updated How-To? TM-AC1900 (T-Mobile Cell Spot) to Merlin Firmware Guide?

    If you are on the latest TMobile firmware/CFE, you will not be able to install anything other than a TMobile firmware. You can try but you'll discover that the firmware flash will result in failure. Even if you do downgrade to 1703 (TMobile) and try to go directly to Merlin or Asus with built...

    Does T-Mobile/ASUS TM-AC1900 (RT-AC68U) Support Merlin?

    Seems that latest CFE / firmware combination is causing even more headaches than before (CFE 2.1.2.6). Several people have flashed the CFE (using the older TMobile .1703 firmware) but could not flash anything else it seemed. Going to Shibby 1.24 Tomato ARM VPN edition for RT-AC68U (the smaller...

    T-Mobile TM AC 1900 won't enter rescue mode

    The new 378.xxxx series of firmware (either Asus or Merlin) needs a 64Meg rootfs partition. 376.3626 was the first Asus firmware to expand the partition from 32M to 64M. There are other Merlin versions that do it also (maybe they all do by now) but I know for sure that 376.3626 does, so I...

    T-Mobile TM AC 1900 won't enter rescue mode

    Not that I know of. Once you're on CFE 1.0.2.0 (or 1.0.2.1), there 'should' be no reason that any firmware takes you back to a TMobile CFE / Firmware. Of course, anything can change but as of now, I have not see that happen (and I've been with this thing watching and helping for over a year...

    T-Mobile TM AC 1900 won't enter rescue mode

    You don't have to update the CFE again. You might need to run another firmware to update the rootfs partition (Asus 376.3626 comes to mind) so you can update to any of the 378.xxxx series. If you get to 378.56 of Merlin, if you don't mind, please post your CFE listed from the Tools menu...

    T-Mobile TM AC 1900 won't enter rescue mode

    Are you running the latest Merlin? What CFE did you flash to? Just to make sure, can you check your current version of CFE (I think it's under Tools in Merlin)?

    Converted T-Mobile Cell Spot

    What are you using to try to send the firmware over (Asus restore utility, the current firmware GUI, mini-CFE Webserver)? As of late, it seems getting to the mini-CFE webserver is about the best (and possibly only) way to get past this little issue. There are reports that you can flash the...

    Converted T-Mobile Cell Spot

    I'm assuming that you have already loaded an Asus CFE onto that router (CFE 1.0.2.0 or 1.0.2.1)? If so, try loading Asus firmware 376.3626 first. Once on 376.3626, try loading the latest firmware to see if it goes. If the firmware won't load from the GUI, might have to boot into 'recovery'...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    I'll be happy to test for you. Oh, and absolutely no reason for you to apologize about anything. Your work is appreciated far more than you know!!! :) Edit: RT-AC68U if that matters.

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    After installing 14.1 from 13.1 (or whatever the last 13 version was), my TWC app on the Xbox 360's started buffering heavily and had poor video quality. At first, I assumed it was TWC's servers. After a week, I tried tweaking QoS rules to no success (actually, made it worse). I just reverted...

    Does T-Mobile/ASUS TM-AC1900 (RT-AC68U) Support Merlin?

    @pantag The package is from the guy who made the video. I do have both 1.0.2.0 and 1.0.2.1 listed on the guide page and to be honest, I'm not sure what the difference is. I updated to 1.0.2.1 just for kicks (and guide practice) but it's not required that I know of. To be honest, I wouldn't...

    Does T-Mobile/ASUS TM-AC1900 (RT-AC68U) Support Merlin?

    :D 1.0.2.1. doesn't have a warning...it's the one above it (1.0.2.0 ESMT) that has a warning. ;) Many of the items that you report should be in the "Tips and Troubleshooting" section of the guide. Asus restore utility hasn't worked well on the TMobile version for some time but mini cFE...

    Does T-Mobile/ASUS TM-AC1900 (RT-AC68U) Support Merlin?

    @pantag, The guide never ends. I'm constantly adding little bits of information here and there. I just added the new recovery mode LED pattern (from this very thread that I somehow missed) a few minutes ago. Buying this router just over a year ago and diving into turning it into an Asus full...

    Does T-Mobile/ASUS TM-AC1900 (RT-AC68U) Support Merlin?

    @pantag The video guide, not made by me, should be enough to get you through. The changes that TMobile/Asus made with certain CFE updates and firmware combinations, have complicated things in the past. Previously, you simply had to (assuming you have Telnet ability) enable Telnet download...

    [Issue RT-AC66U] Xbox One Wired Network

    Do you let the router assign the IP address to the Xbox one or do you set the IP manually? If DHCP (router assign), try setting the address manually. Had many issues with Xbox 360 using Asus firmware until I did that. Don't know if it will help but worth a try. Good luck.

    Rt_Ac68 with Bootloader 1.0.2.1 firmware question!

    I have not seen, that I recall, an Asus or Merlin firmware yet that converts to 1.0.2.1. Not saying that it couldn't happen at some point but have not seen it yet.

    Rt_Ac68 with Bootloader 1.0.2.1 firmware question!

    If you're on Asus CFE 1.0.2.1, that's the latest Asus CFE (that I've seen - hggomes CFE collection) for the RT-AC68U and won't be updated unless there is a new one released later. I'm not sure whether an Asus firmware or Merlin firmware would even update from 1.0.2.0 to 1.0.2.1 at this point...

    I flashed and rebooted (no NVRAM reset) and my numbers are identical to what the were before. Good luck.
