    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51720 (2024/11/13)

    Looks like these updates were across most all devices. I guess they thought it was enough of a security threat and easy to update that they went ahead and did it.

    Should I replace my RT-AC68U?

    I have Comcast which is rated 500/20, although should test to 600/24. On my Pixel 8, I can get into the mid-upper 400's. (and nearly the full 600/24 on a wired computer.) I do have AiProtection and many other stuff turned off, so the router is running about as basic as possible.

    Anyone noticed leds not working on their device?

    I think I have seen posts that they tend to get dimmer and dimmer. On my 68U, the ones that tend to be on most all of the time are dimmer than one for a port that is only occasionally used. Little hard to tell from this picture, but the port 2 LED is actually much brighter than the others.

    router.asus.com stopped working | 4G-AC86U

    Depending on the model, there are multiple options for the local GUI: router.asus.com www.asusrouter.com www.asusnetwork.net There was awhile where some force HTTPS list in Firefox blocked router.asus.com. The Android Firefox on my phone no longer works with router.asus.com for some reason, but...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    This is a sign of wider coverage of the issues and updates. Hopefully, some of this info might trickle down a bit to tech feeds of more regular news services.

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    Just a note that Ars Technica has an article about the Asus vulnerabilities. https://arstechnica.com/security/2024/06/high-severity-vulnerabilities-affect-a-wide-range-of-asus-router-models/

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    Maybe it just moved. Here is where I found it. https://www.asus.com/us/networking-iot-servers/wifi-routers/asus-wifi-routers/rtac68u/helpdesk_bios?model2Name=RTAC68U

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    I hope this was a joke. That activity would have no effect on such short-range transmissions.

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    Other than auto update not working, does this update seem to be OK?

    RT-AC68U - Issues and problem with upgrading firmware

    I have auto-update disabled on mine, but it still seems to go through the motions every day around 3AM CDT. No errors though. It just says No Update Needed. I wonder if, being EOL, they moved something to a different folder that the router cannot find?

    RT-AC68U - Issues and problem with upgrading firmware

    I have always done the "manual" upgrade as that guarantees what version I know I am updating to.

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    I wonder if it was being tested or similar before the EOL was announced, so they went ahead and released it.

    News RT-AC68U End of Life Announced by Asus

    Maybe remotely if there was some severe security update that was fixable and similar to some other router that was still in support.

    New router recommendation

    I'm guessing the "gaming" port just offers lower latency and higher priority relative to other ports or WiFi?

    New router recommendation

    Any recommendations for WiFi6E or 7? Asus or others, that are decent and might have support for at least a few years, but don't cost more than a new car...

    Just what could be affected by disabling UPnP?

    With the talk of some recent exploits, I'm wondering just what really requires UPnP. I've tried reading up, but am a bit confused about any consequences of disabling it. I have a relatively simple setup. Not sure what needs to discover each other. The main things I could think of are a...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    I currently have the next-to-last 51665 release. Is it worth updating it to 51668? I am having no problems, and it only looks like it is some minor updates.

    Router.asus.com being forced to https in Firefox again

    Last time, it was a list of sites that are forced to https that is hard-coded into the code. It looks like asus.com was added again.

    Router.asus.com being forced to https in Firefox again

    Tried to access the normal router.asus.com with Firefox 123.1 on my Android phone, and got an error. Figured out it is forcing https on asus.com again. The other addresses still work. Windows Firefox 123.0.1 still works. Just wondering if anyone else is seopeing this. I also added a post to the...
