    Noob Question: Is there a way to save and restore configs like (device names, static ips, port forwarding) so factory resets are less inconvenient ?

    Thank you @RMerlin, didn't know that it doesn't exist in stock. 1. Is there a way to turn off the LEDs in stock firmware as it's pretty bright using NVRAM? I have RT-AC87U. 2. Also, is "mtd-erase2 nvram" the correct way to clean all the NVRAM and start fresh? How about /jffs partition...

    Beta ASUS RT-AC87U Firmware 9.0.0.4.382.52503 (02-02-2021)

    Well, count me as the second one as mine is going strong as well. I've been running Merlin on it but now will install this latest patch and see whether there are any improvements. Planning to flash it over and see whether it takes it or else will do a reset/configure it.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.82SF & v. 1.0.2.82.1SF & v. 1.0.2.82.2SF

    Yes, that's why I thought of switching the router to see whether anything is messed up in my network. Found out that it's Netgear firmware and others are having the same issue too. Will let my R7800 sleep for a while until it's fixed. ASUS is back in biz now. LOL.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.82SF & v. 1.0.2.82.1SF & v. 1.0.2.82.2SF

    Just the usual streaming/browsing from few devices, maybe around 6 - 8. There is a bug in Netgear firmware and there are posts that mention about this *load* bug. Here is the post: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/r7800-high-load.70405/#post-666241

    Get the nvram values for dhcp_hostnames and dhcp_staticlist and replace it as shown below: admin@RT-AC68U:/tmp/home/root# nvram get dhcp_hostnames admin@RT-AC68U:/tmp/home/root# nvram get dhcp_staticlist Create a shell script, for example dhcp.sh: #!/bin/sh nvram set dhcp_hostnames="REPLACE...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.82SF & v. 1.0.2.82.1SF & v. 1.0.2.82.2SF

    I switched to my ASUS RT-AC87R to test the load and it dropped significantly. Whoa, Netgear has lots of work to do to fix it. RT-AC87R: admin@RT-AC87R:/tmp/home/root# uptime 13:22:58 up 5:30, load average: 0.13, 0.13, 0.12 R7800: root@R7800:~$ uptime 11:17:35 up 7:47, load...

    Thanks again for the response. Actually, I serached for disabling WPS and came across that thread. But, there was no solution in it other unchecking the PIN. I read somewhere in this thread that you disabled WPS, so I was curious of how you did it. I unchecked the "Keep Existing Wireless...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.82SF & v. 1.0.2.82.1SF & v. 1.0.2.82.2SF

    Thank you so much and appreciate your quick response. Couple of more questions: 1. I unchecked the PIN for WPS in Advanced->Advanced Setup->Wireless Settings->WPS Settings->Router PIN. Is it all needed or how do I disable WPS completely? 2. In your README, I see that you have mentioned this...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.82SF & v. 1.0.2.82.1SF & v. 1.0.2.82.2SF

    I have an USB drive on R7800 and how do I get your autorun script to run after a new firmware update? I haven't installed any addons, just the firmware only. I want to extract the /root folder after a new firmware update. Would adding the code (to copy it to /root) in /etc/rc.local work? Does...

    I had configured SSH before and haven't been using R7800 for a while. Today, I plugged in and flashed your new version and it's working great and thank you for your wonderful work. When I tried to connect to the router using SSH, I get the dreaded "Permission denied (publickey)" error. I am...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.80SF & v. 1.0.2.80.4SF & v. 1.0.2.80.5SF

    So, basically this should work, correct? nvram set reservation1=192.168.0.11 00:11:22:33:44:51 NAME1 nvram set reservation2=192.168.0.12 00:11:22:33:44:52 NAME2 nvram set reservation3=192.168.0.13 00:11:22:33:44:53 NAME3 nvram set reservation4=192.168.0.14 00:11:22:33:44:54 NAME4 nvram set...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.80SF & v. 1.0.2.80.4SF & v. 1.0.2.80.5SF

    Thanks. I guess I have to run a regex to convert the existing list to match Voxel. I think reservation# seems a little bit cleaner but with lots of nvram variables depending on number of hosts (I have about 30 static IPs).

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.80SF & v. 1.0.2.80.4SF & v. 1.0.2.80.5SF

    Thank you. I almost forgot that I used TFTP to get to OpenWRT as it was a while back. I know how to use TFTP to move back/forth and thank you for pointing it out. I use lots of static IPs in my network. Are the staticlist nvram variables something like this in Voxel too? nvram get...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.80SF & v. 1.0.2.80.4SF & v. 1.0.2.80.5SF

    I am currently running OpenWRT on my R7800. So, if I need to dive into Voxel, do I just flash the latest Voxel (R7800-V1.0.2.80.5SF.img) from the OpenWRT GUI or any special steps need to be performed? Of course, I will reset all the settings in OpenWRT but curious whether any additional steps...

    Diversion Whitelist slickdeals and ebates related domains in Diversion

    Like I said, that's an extensive list and did NOT open all of them. This is what I opened up for slickdeals and all my deal sites seems to play nice. Your whitelist has these 11 entries: 1: ad.doubleclick.net 2: cj.dotomi.com 3: go.redirectingat.com 4: go.skimresources.com 5: jdoqocy.com...

    Diversion Whitelist slickdeals and ebates related domains in Diversion

    Never mind. I found how to do it and here is how if anyone is curious: Edit the file /tmp/mnt/ASUS/entware/share/diversion/list/whitelist and add your entries here and process the whitelist in diversion. That's all. Btw, ASUS is my USB drive name and replace it to suit yours.

    Diversion Whitelist slickdeals and ebates related domains in Diversion

    When I click on the slickdeals deals, it times out while trying to open the deal sites. I tried to add one by one to the whitelist using "el" function, but it's a cumbersome process. Any ideas how I can add a bunch of domains at one shot? I found the following list from slickdeals but it looks...

    Release ASUS RT-AC87U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.382.52230 (2020/05/06)

    What is the AC wifi chip issue that you are talking about? I have been using it for a while on the latest version (3.0.0.4.382_52288) and haven't encountered any issues so far. My AC devices connect fine and I see downloads/uploads in the 400+ Mbps range out of a 500/500 Mbps line.

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    I was on Merlin (RT-AC68U_384.18), took a backup. Then, I flashed the latest Beta (9.x) and didn't like it, so I flashed Merlin 384.18 again + restored the config that was saved earlier (same version that I took the backup from). Would there be remnants from beta hanging in the NVRAM or not? In...
