    NordVPN--Couldn't establish a secure connection... internet traffic intercepted?

    Maybe just a random oddity like you said. I opted for the [Don't Trust] command button and everything seemed to still be working ok/normally. I was on my Windows 10 desktop.

    NordVPN--Couldn't establish a secure connection... internet traffic intercepted?

    I am using the app. NordVPN v. 7.8.4.0 The app does show GREEN i.e. connected. When I go to dnsleaktest.com it does show an ip address that is not my own. I did block out the thumbprint (dunno if that was really necessary to do that--maybe better to show it?) will try and google the...

    NordVPN--Couldn't establish a secure connection... internet traffic intercepted?

    In all the years having a NordVPN subscription (4+ years) have never seen such a pop up message before. 1) Using NordVPN -- it's been active for several days. just leave my computer on 24/7. 2) Using Firefox browser at https://armory.worldofwarships.com/ for the prior 2 hours or so. 3) Had...

    Skynet Skynet wont update

    thank you, seems to have updated! When I try to press 2 for Skynet, seems to result in the same issue I had earlier though . Have to remember that command for updates... and probably other command line commands for future skynet config changes.

    Skynet Skynet wont update

    When I try to open skynet (press 2) to begin the update to the latest version I get this: Maybe time for a fresh reinstall of amtm?

    Are Asus routers running ASUSWRT-Merlin affected by NAT Slipstreaming? Mitigations?

    Look at the prior post #23 by @Wycleff in this thread... Look at item [3. In Terminal] << you have to be in a SSH session on your router. After you enter those 2 commands try: nvram get vts_ftpport 0 << this is the result you should see if your ftpport is now "0" (which will also show the...

    News CVE-2022-27255 Realtek eCos SDK-based routers, the ‘SIP ALG’ module is vulnerable to buffer overflow.

    That's why I posted the CVE in General Network Security. The information might be of interest to some. Tried to provide some extra, hopefully, informative content.

    Review New In the Charts: ASUS RT-AX86U

    I know Merlin's post is over a year old but had to look into it: RT-AC66U_B1 is $69.99 US as of 08/17/2022 @ Amazon. Sweet! As long as the RT-AC68U/RT-AC66U_B1 firmware keeps being supported by both Asus/Merlin, it is (still Merlin's top budget pick?) a great deal for a TOP Budget/Great Value...

    Are Asus routers running ASUSWRT-Merlin affected by NAT Slipstreaming? Mitigations?

    Yes, those are my current NAT Passthrough settings. Without those settings my Amazon Echo would not function. I'm just suggesting that (if NAT Passthrough is the culprit) having ALL NAT Passthrough disabled may not work for some cases like myself and perhaps you. I don't have VoWiFi (Voice...

    Are Asus routers running ASUSWRT-Merlin affected by NAT Slipstreaming? Mitigations?

    I know that my Amazon Echo device will not work without 2 items still having NAT Passthrough enabled... unless newer firmware has solved that issue (haven't tested it recently). Perhaps your device still needs Passthrough enabled on One or More services? ..or maybe try this site which refers...

    Any way to overclock new RT-AC68U?

    As long as you have an older RT-AC68U, and you must if you are able to overclock it temporarily try @ironclad's method (this is the method I use--also covered earlier in post #31 of this thread): https://www.snbforums.com/threads/release-asuswrt-merlin-384-13-is-now-available.57860/post-510501...

    386.4: AC86U losing 2.4 GHz devices

    I was having issues with my wifi--both bands--dropping several times a day (After literally months of near flawless service) I imagine too many dirty updates was causing my router to become unstable. After making recommended changes (posted by several members which included disabling universal...

    Signature version reverted back to 2.066 again - this time factory resets are not resolving it

    2.280 Updated : 2022/02/09 11:04 2.274 Updated : 2022/02/08 02:01 2.274 Updated : 2022/01/20 02:00 dunno why my router "updated" to the same version of the signature, but when I tried a manual update, updated to 2.280 Regarding apparent signature reversion to 2.066. I seem to recall (in...

    386.4: AC86U losing 2.4 GHz devices

    Starting at about 3 days 11 hours, Wife first noticed the ROKU TV wasn't connected last night on 5GHZ. So just plugged in ethernet cable, disabled WiFi. This morning at about 3 days 20 hours both 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands were off. Dang. Back to drawing board. next step will be a nuclear reset.

    386.4: AC86U losing 2.4 GHz devices

    Maybe that is the first step that many, including me, tends to do ONLY after all other methods fail. That method is working for me for last 3 days and counting.

    386.4: AC86U losing 2.4 GHz devices

    I recently was having problems with my RT-AC86U losing 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wifi. The key idea in my case was RECENTLY. I have had many, many months of what I would call flawless WiFi. After the recent Merlin and Asus Official updates which I would happily dirty update to try out/test, I began...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.46065

    Noticed that the MD5 for both the RT-AC68U and the RT-AC66U-B1 is the same. Some have said before that the 66U-B1 is just a 68U with a faster processor.
