    Asuswrt-Merlin 376.48 is out

    VPN not working for me on 376.48_1. Devices just report that the server is unreachable. Using Asus's DDNS on AC68, PPTP.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.42_2 is out

    Sorry, failing at the first hurdle - finding the router's command prompt. I found this on another thread: http://192.168.0.1/Tools_RunCmd.asp but this does not work for me with an error page saying settings have been updated. I have tenet on windows 7. How do I access. Again using: telnet...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.42_2 is out

    Great - thank you I'll give it a go. Do I need set the over clock feature to off first or does this not matter?

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.42_2 is out

    Thank you; that's a shame. Will #2 work in a future update or do I manually need to do this using something like SSH? I have zero experience with this - is there an idiot's guide somewhere that includes some recommended settings that (hopefully) won't set it into an endless reboot? If the...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.42_2 is out

    Bootloader & overclocking I'm trying to figure out what I need (or don't need) to do to set the overclocking in RMerlin's firmware. My bootloader version is 1.0.1.6 so: 1. My DDR clock speed already 666 and therefore do not need to run the ASUS DDR utility - is that correct? 2. With...

    USB 2.0 LED remains on in stealth mode

    When trurning on the stealth mode on my RTAC68U the LED for USB 2.0 comes back on after a short while. I see that a few others have had this issue see here for example. Can I force it off somehow or just wait for a firmware fix? Thanks HB RTAC68U / Merlin 374.42_2

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.42_2 is out

    Thanks for the reply. After trawling through posts here I found an answer from RMerlin to someone's unrelated VPN question that fixed my issue. I was trying to re-use an ASUS account from my old 66U - I didn't realise that they were locked to an individual router by MAC address (of course it's...

    VPN on AC68U

    Yep - that was all it was for me. A new ASUS DDNS account name has sorted it.

    VPN on AC68U

    Trawling through the threads here (you cannot search 'VPN' as too short) I think I may have found an answer to my issue from RMerlin to another user on a VPN question. It seems that once you set up an account with ASUS that account is then locked to the router by its MAC address. As I'm trying...

    VPN on AC68U

    Sorry but I can't help you but can confirm that I'm having exactly the same issue as you as posted here http://forums.smallnetbuilder.com/showpost.php?p=122702&postcount=405 I had no such problems with the RTAC66U but cannot get the VPN on the RTAC68U to work with the ASUS DDNS. I too...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.42_2 is out

    I've just replaced my dead RTAC66U (power trip/surge killed it) with the RTAC68U (with surge protector!). It came with ASUS's latest frimware per-installed and I've now installed Merlin's latest 374.42_2 firmware. I've manually configured it to match the settings on my old 66 but cannot get...

    RT-AC66 will not boot up properly

    I got in touch with ASUS and they advised to return via my retailer for repair. I've just got off the phone to Amazon UK and they have arranged to refund me in full and pick up the router by courier tomorrow. They did offer a straight replacement but could not upgrade but refunded so I could...

    RT-AC66 will not boot up properly

    OK thanks. I will see if Asus will send me a replacement power supply. The light on the plug is solid blue though - I thought that it blinked if there was a problem? HB

    RT-AC66 will not boot up properly

    The power button is on. I have since learned that my youngest tripped the electrics by setting fire to our toaster! Apparently, the internet stopped working from that point. The blue light glows on the plug but the router will not power up properly. It does seem like some power is getting in...

    RT-AC66 will not boot up properly

    I cannot get this router to boot up properly. I came back from a trip and the internet had stopped working. My fibre BT box indicated all was OK so I rebooted the ASUS and nothing happens - no lights come on and no network connection. If I leave it plugged in it does get warm so it is not...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 Beta 2 is available

    I have to agree. Take a break RMerlin for a while if it is becoming a chore. I'd much rather future quality firmwares but less frequently rather than none at all from you should give it up out of frustration. HB

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 ALPHA 4 builds now available

    Tried everything. Reset, cleared NVRAM unplugged cables, different browser. Same result - it installed 354.28. I think that this was the very first Merlin firmware that I ever installed - is it going into some sort of recovery mode? I given up and gone back to 374.39 for now. I'll try again...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 ALPHA 4 builds now available

    No to resets and clearing NVRAM and disconnecting all Ethernet except PC. Unzipped file as normal and placed in folder. I do not have the firmware it flashes on my PC anywhere - that's the weird thing. Also, v39 flashes just fine. I will try some of your other suggestions though - many thanks.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 ALPHA 4 builds now available

    Hi Merlin, I am unable to flash this onto AC66U and each time I try the route reports a different old firmware (354.28). This has happened to me previously on the 374.38. I can assure you that I have downloaded 374.40 and I do not have 354.28 in my download folder. I tried to flash 3 times...

    Netflix unavailable with 3.0.0.4.374.39 and DNS-based filtering enabled

    I have had to do the same for for Humax PVR in order to get the BBC and ITV iplayers working and also my NAS running my Squeezebox's server. Once you add a device with 'none' I can confirm that all works fine. :)
