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

    Good point. I just sent them a support ticket to see what's going on. The following is what I just sent them. Will let you know if/when I hear back.

    Is RT-N16 in EoL officially from Asus? I could be wrong, but Asus is still making and selling them (through Amazon and Newegg) and it is not in their official list of End-of-Life wireless routers that I found https://www.asus.com/event/network/EOL-product/ , but at the same time Asus has been...

    If I recall correctly, the last time I had to tftp to a RT-N16, I had a computer with static ip (not dhcp) already connected with ethernet cable, along with a cmd with the tftp command typed up and ready for execution by pressing Enter. Then I pressed the WPS button (not the reset button like...

    If your Asus web UI actually says 1.0.1.6, you might be on an ancient version of the firmware. Probably from right when the router was released years ago. I started tracking all of the GPLs that Asus released specifically marked for RT-N16 a few years ago, and interestingly the very first GPL...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin on Broadcom MIPS RT-N series

    This project is considered abandoned at this point. Is there a specific feature that you are looking for? Which router are you trying to update?

    It does. I also saw https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/december-2017-security-releases/ which says their stuff will be impacted at high sev because of the openssl issue. We don't have node in asuswrt, but not sure what specifics caused them to be high.

    I had a couple of router crash/auto reboots today on RT-N16 with 374.43_28E2j9527 , both involving USB HD access. Not sure if it is an issue with the recent changes, a prior issue, or a hardware issue from my end. Crash 1: A computer on the LAN with Kodi was playing a movie that was stored on...

    This is awesome, specially for folks with RT-N16 that has smaller nvram. I recall, OpenVPN was specifically disabled on RT-N16 since there wasn't enough room to store the certs in nvram. Is that still the case? Thanks

    Thanks. I had the version from January of this year, and a whole lot of custom settings including some custom routes and configs for an entware openvpn server that I no longer have installed or using. I just did an update to 23E4, followed with factory reset using WPS button and power cycle...

    Is NAT Loopback supported, or is there something that I need to manually add through shell to get it to work? I noticed it is not working for me when trying to access a NAT port using the public IP of the router from inside the network and wondering if it is something in my settings that need...

    OPENVPN ASUSWRT AND SIEMENS M800

    Check the firewall routes, if I recall correctly, I had to manually add some routes in the firewall to get OpenVPN to work. Just a heads up, the OpenVPN performance when running on the router is typically not that good, aka slow connections. I opted to setup a Turnkey OpenVPN on a VM running...

    How to use DnsMasq to deny *.as.pptv.com etc

    Instead of going in the raw configs, you can probably just block the URL in the UI in Firewall>URL Filter. I think adding a filter for ".as.pptv.com" will get the result that you are looking for.

    Reducing NVRAM usage

    By the way, for line in `nvram show | grep =$ `; do var=${line%*=}; nvram unset $var; done doesn't seem to be working in either init-start, firewall-start, services-start, or even post-mount. Any suggestions on how to run it effectively during startup?

    Reducing NVRAM usage

    I am running into issues with NVRAM usage on RT-N16 (currently running John's fork, but I think this is a generic issue), and trying to figure out how we can free up more space. The device has a 32K nvram, and my current nvram usage is 29853 bytes (2915 left). I have two devices at two...

    [fork] Asuswrt Merlin for RT-N16

    Question: What size are you getting for the nvram? I am wondering if asuswrt 9.0.0.4.380.2985 had an upgrade of CFE that bumped the nvram size from 32k to 64k or if it didn't and RT-N16 is still stuck on the 32k nvram limit.

    I suspect my much lower WAN speed might have been related to the connection latency causing issues with the way the buffer works and what HPN is trying to address. Unlike my lan traffic, the WAN speed was for data being written from the west coast to the router on the east coast. My workaround...

    Do you think if SFTP may do better than SCP? Just wondering if you guys know, before I spend bunch of time manually setting it up to test it (planning to start with the configs at http://www.snbforums.com/threads/vsftpd-support-ssl-tls-encryption-support.17939/#post-154537 and assuming that...
