    amcfwm - AsusWRT-Merlin Custom Firmware Manager

    @Adamm i've been using this since the initial release with no issue really. Even got it to run on 20.04, but starting this week, builds for my AX88U have been dying because the vm is running out of memory. Im not sure if an os update has broken something. I've set up fresh 18.04 and 20.04 vm's...

    Are you in a double nat config? Have you refreshed stats?

    Trend Micro features privacy concern.

    I don’t view this as any different than what Apple, Microsoft, google, amazon, social media, public email, isp’s etc are doing. At least I get some security benefit out of trend.

    Trend Micro features privacy concern.

    Its one of my layers of network security. Its free unlink most other devices I've looked at (netgear/orbi. tplink, eero). Not sure if I'd pay for it if there was a cost, but its triggered on a few sites over the years.

    Firmware update necessary or only to fix existing issues?

    I tend to stay on top of updates as they often contain security fixes in the asus gpl plus 3rd party security fixes like openvpn, dropbear, OpenSSL, etc. of course there is always a risk of something going bad but the risk is worth it for me. There are usually several alphas and beta releases...

    Are there any risks or downsides to installing a firewall like Skynet or AiProtection?

    I started using Skynet a few months ago and have not had any negative impact browsing the internet or with connectivity of iot devices using the default list. That said, identifying and unblocking is well documented on here. I also use nextdns with most privacy/security features enabled. What...

    I think beta 2 was an inclusion of the AC88U? Ax is still on beta1

    iPhone Constantly Disassociating/Associating from WiFi

    Don’t know if this is helpful but I did a factory reset and wiped the JFFS partition on my ax88u. I wasn’t trying to fix the WiFi disconnects with my iPhones, it had just been awhile and I felt it was time to do a reset. Since then I haven’t noticed any issues with the iDevices in my house. What...

    Change OpenVPN Server to RSA 2048 Bit Encryption?

    I've been using EC keys on 384.17 and 384.18 alpha/beta with no issue. The key is making sure the SSL Library that openvpn uses supports EC. In our case, it it supported on the router as openvpn is using OpenSSL 1.1.1g. I'm using the openvpn client for windows 10 and ios which both support EC as...

    Change OpenVPN Server to RSA 2048 Bit Encryption?

    if you are feeling adventurous, you could use easy-rsa and openssl to generate EC keys instead of RSA. Even going all out and using the secp521r1 curve, you're getting a much smaller key that that's equal to 15360 RSA key. This translates into faster encrypt/decrypt due to less processing...

    Openvpn tls 1.3 config

    Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I am using Merlin 384.18 alpha on an ax88u so there’s that :) I’ve recently updated the iOS openvpn client which switched to OpenSSL, enabling TLS 1.3. I’ve been playing with my tls versions and settings and my certain/keys. In the client log on my iPhone...

    [384.18_Alpha Builds] Testing all variants

    I ran a build for my AX88U to include the new commits in the AX repository. On the Firmware Upgrade page, I can manually check for trend and fw updates, but am unable to set the config for scheduled check for new firmware availability. It does not retain yes or no, and I do not see an apply...

    Merlin support for next gen ASUS routers

    @DimBo wouldn't expect anything new to be added any time soon. see this thread. Merlin's already got his work cut out for him supporting the models he's already got. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/384-18_alpha-builds-testing-all-variants.63954/page-11

    [384.18_Alpha Builds] Testing all variants

    @RMerlin thanks for giving us a glimpse into your development nightmare. I knew you were at the mercy of Asus releasing gpl, but didn’t know it was such a moving target. Not wanting to poke the bear here but the 9107 gpl for the 88u, is that something you have tentatively planned for .19? Or...

    [Dev] Documentation for building the firmware under WSL2

    Thanks, I gave that a read and plan to at least set up the build environment this weekend but was curious about the comment about the bottom “Your setup is now ready for compiling, from inside the amng-build folder. Please refer to the Wiki for more information as how to compile specific...
