    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.57 is now available

    I have a bit of an issue. On a AC88U, on WTFast when I click apply (to apply the settings I select) it straight away logs me out of the router. I log back in and no changes were made. Consistently does this over and over so I cant make any changes. Actually it seems as soon as I log into the...

    AdBlocking with combined hosts file

    Question, do I login as 'root' user? Because I cannot get the password for that. But my username and password that I use to log into the routers GUI works. Is this correct? Also I have a new router and it doesnt seem to have any files or folders in jffs. Do I create them manually in ssh? Or...

    EA-AC87 cannot connect to AC88U

    Figured it out... Changed channel of the 5G to 40 instead of the 140 it was on. This was a fix to get my SHIELD Tablet working, which resulted in a fix for the AP too. So good times all round if anyone else comes across this issue.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.57 is now available

    Could I query something please. Merlin's release is based on: 380_1031 GPL If I look on Asus website they are up to: Firmware version 3.0.0.4.380.1354 Does that mean Merlin's firmware is a little outdated already? (Not trying to point fingers I know he is busy, just trying to understand how...

    EA-AC87 cannot connect to AC88U

    Hey guys, So just got my shiny new AC88U. Fired it up and loaded on Merlins 380.57 and did a factory rest. Set it up and works fine for local network or laptops/tablets. BUT I have an EA-AC87 that I use as a media bridge, and it just WILL NOT connect to the AC88U. I have tried to set the...

    AdBlocking with combined hosts file

    Perfect, thanks TLC, I'll hang ten then. In regard to the other question can I use a USB stick formatted as EXT3? Also can I use the usb 2.o port on the back of the AC88U instead of the usb3.0 in the front?

    Thanks for the reply :) Is TLC re-doing this guide? Would Ext3 work? Do does it specifically have to be Ext2? "DAD!! stop fooling with the internet!" Its a good thing my daughter is only 4 weeks old, too young to mess with the internet ;) Just gotta get around the missus :D

    AdBlocking with combined hosts file

    This is amazing, and something that all routers need. Can this not be added to the firmware? Who wouldn't want a nice simple easy way to enable this in the GUI? I am a bit hesitant to get this going with all the command line stuff. *EDIT* Also I have to run my router with a usb stick in it...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.57 is now available

    Hey guys So took the plunge and upgraded to 380 on my AC3200. But now I have the issue of port forwarding to my lan. Is anyone else experiencing this? Or could it be that now I cannot access my external ip/port from within the internal network? Is there a setting I need to change to be able to...

    Why use WRT Merlin?

    Ta all for your speedy replies... I may give it a bash tomorrow and see how it fares. I'm happy with stock firmware, so maybe the fixes that Merlin includes would be the winner for me.
