    Windows 10 issue with OpenVPN server

    My Windows 10 laptop connects to the VPN, but it cannot access the remote network. When I change the LAN metric to 100 for the push route, it works! Router is RT-AC68U running Asuswrt-Merlin 380.68_4. Here's my fix: /jffs/scripts/openvpnserver1.postconf #!/bin/sh push_lan_metric=100...

    Problems reading out USB to serial converter

    You may need to compile your driver firmware blob into the Linux kernel, then flash the router. Example: ~/asuswrt-merlin/release/src-rt-6.x.4708/linux/linux-2.6.36/config_base.6a CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_KEYSPAN=m CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_KEYSPAN_USA19QI=y...

    Asus Merlin Tor Settings - Can I apply for specific port(s), not just MAC(s)?

    Do you mean Ethernet port or TCP port? If you meant Ethernet port, then it could be done with a custom script. You want to redirect an entire VLAN interface through the Tor network. First you need to put the traffic on a separate VLAN.

    Simultaneous VPN and TOR

    You probably have separate TOR clients and VPN clients on your network? I don't think it's possible for the router to do TOR-over-VPN or VPN-over-TOR. If you try, I think it would pick TOR and ignore the VPN. What I do, is to run TOR on the router and the OpenVPN client on my Windows...

    Problems reading out USB to serial converter

    I would try turning debugging back on and re-compile the driver. Now you can see the hex bytes in the dmesg log and tell if it's inverted or not. Lastly, if the driver is not in the firmware, I don't think there's a way to unload it by doing modprobe -r, so a reboot is necessary if you want...

    Blocking packets with iptables

    Is everything happening on your local network? The INPUT chain is for packets destined for the router itself. The FORWARD chain is for packets passing through the router. Use -I instead of -A to put the rule on top. iptables -I FORWARD -p udp -m string --algo bm --string "BANNED_CDKEY"...

    Blocking packets with iptables

    I think the packet is proably encrypted or you don't need the --sport parameter.

    Problems reading out USB to serial converter

    I updated asuswrt-arm-ch34x.patch so that it includes usbserial.ko in the firmware, just in case you try it that way. Compiling the kernel modules Add the ch34x entry to Kconfig and Makefile, for ARM kernels only cd $HOME/asuswrt-merlin patch -p1 -i ~/path/to/patches/asuswrt-arm-ch34x.patch...

    Problems reading out USB to serial converter

    I think you should add this as new kernel driver. See my example patch. It will update all three ARM kernels in one shot. Then you can say CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_CH34x=m in the kernel config. You could also turn off debugging in ch34x.c. Example: ... // For debug #if (LINUX_VERSION_CODE <...

    Problems reading out USB to serial converter

    I think it would take nothing less than Linux kernel version 4.12 to fully satisfy this? That's where I see complete implementation of data bits, parity and stop bits in CH341.ko driver. OR, you could use a tool to tweak the CH341 chip's firmware default settings to your liking? Lastly, I've...

    Force LAN port 4 to use the Guest network for Asus/merlin RT-AC68U

    Sorry, I meant to say that my wired network is not interrupted when I turn off my Asus router because of the switch. According to the robocfg usage, the CPU port default is "t" and the other ports default is "u". Robocfg uses the default letter when the port number is specified without the...

    Force LAN port 4 to use the Guest network for Asus/merlin RT-AC68U

    Yes, it's just a router with DHCP, DNS, NTP. The manged switch is Enterasys 24-port.

    Force LAN port 4 to use the Guest network for Asus/merlin RT-AC68U

    I updated the script to fix that. Now the network address gets calculated properly.

    Force LAN port 4 to use the Guest network for Asus/merlin RT-AC68U

    My Wi-Fi guest network authentication works as expected. I still need to dig into it, to find out exactly which protocols I would not want blocked. I found that Ethertype 0x886c (ETHER_TYPE_BRCM) must stay bridged (br0) or else the Guest Wi-Fi does not authenticate...

    Problems reading out USB to serial converter

    One last thing. Without Hotplug or Udev rules, here's how I automatically start my USB device. If you unplug the USB device and plug it back in, the router sometimes makes a new device and things get messy. /jffs/scripts/init-start #!/bin/sh /jffs/scripts/mydevice-start.sh &...

    Problems reading out USB to serial converter

    Have you tried? modprobe cdc-acm I do not think mknod is necessary. If it helps, disable automatic loading of GSM modem drivers and programs. /jffs/scripts/init-start #!/bin/sh deny_access() { local FILEPATH="$1" local FILENAME="$(/usr/bin/basename $FILEPATH)" local...

    Dnsmasq configuration

    I think you could do this entirely with Ash script (the default shell script: /bin/sh). The firmware would be the only dependency, no Entware-ng in this case. If you ever need functionality not available in Ash shell, try adding Awk script (/usr/bin/awk). See this example for how I used Awk...

    Asus AC56U - ftdi_sio.ko module doesn't exist

    Type dmesg to check the results of modprobe cdc-acm. And look for /dev/ttyACM0. And, I think "invalid module format" means the kernel modules from AsusWRT 374.x are not binary compatible with 380.x. You could also try extracting ftdi_sio.ko from this firmware...

    Asus AC56U - ftdi_sio.ko module doesn't exist

    Have you tried this command to manually load the kernel module? modprobe cdc-acm Alternatively, is it possible to extract the USB FTDI kernel module from a 4-year old stock firmware? Apparently, Asus had it in there a very long time ago. You could use 7-Zip to open the .TRX firmware image...

    Asus rt-ac3200 merlin flashed kill switch drops express vpn

    If I remember correctly, the Kill Switch for the VPN client tunnel worked great when I tested it last year. I use Tor now, instead of VPN, and he has an automatic Kill Switch for Tor that works perfectly. It blew them away. Be sure to check off the box, Start with WAN.
