    The Uptime Contest

    I have no proof so you probably won't believe me but... I had 45 days of uptime after I moved to 384.19 on both my AX58U router and AC3100 node. That was Sunday. On Monday...back to zero.

    Stability of Asuswrt-Merlin vs Stock Firmware

    I'm sorry you're having issues. Being a nitwit myself, I'll leave it to the experts to help you out. I can only say that I am running an AX-58U router and an AC 3100 node. It has been up and running for 32 straight days since I installed 384.19. I should add that I do not have any fancy...

    Changing DNS Server to Quad9

    I've started to think the same way after I watched a video yesterday that was posted somewhere on SNB where the Quad9 CEO was being interviewed. He made a good case for it and the interviewer had tested Quad9 and seemed to really like where the company was going.

    Changing DNS Server to Quad9

    I am contemplating changing my DNS server to Quad9 for malware filtering. I have two questions. 1) I know I can enter the IPs in the LAN menu. Are their any other options I need to change? I am running a plain vanilla AI mesh with AX58U router and AC3100 node. I am using 384.19. 2) What...

    Occasional Reboots

    I've been running 384.19 for 9 days with no reboots. I was getting random reboots using 384.17. I'm running an AI mesh with AX58U router and a AC3100 node.

    Asus router with best WiFi range

    I have the AC 3100. It was my main router for a couple of years. It was up in my attic and it pretty much covered the entire house even going down into the basement which is three floors down. The only downfall I noticed is that when I sat on my back patio I got a very weak signal. I couldn't...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 384.19 is now available

    Everyone was out of house today so I took advantage and finally updated the firmware on my AI mesh. I did a dirty upgrade from 384.17 to 314.19. I am running the AX-58U as the router and the AC 3100 as the node. The mesh has been running for 5 hours now and the speeds are great and there are...

    Going From 384.17 to 384.19

    Oops! The node is the AC3100. As for the JFFS, I have no idea what that is and if it applies to a plain old vanilla setup I have. Meaning no apps, scripts, or doodads.

    Going From 384.17 to 384.19

    Do you all think it's OK to do a dirty update from 384.17 straight to 384.19? Or should I install 384.18 first? I am running an AI mesh with AX58U router and AC5100 node.

    Do you all think it's OK to do a dirty update from 384.17 straight to 484.19? Or should I go to 384.18 first? I am running an AI mesh with AX58U router and AC5100 node. Reply Thanks for all advice.

    Release [ 384.19_Alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    I am currently running 384.17 on my router (AX58U) and my node(AC3100). Can I do a dirty install to this alpha version or should I first install 384.18?

    AIMesh Reboot Procedure

    My AI mesh setup is a AX58U router and an AC3100 node. I don't have any scripts or NAS or any other doodads on my network. The node connects wirelessly with the router. I am running the latest Merlin firmware on both. That is the last release not the new beta. I never used to do any kind of...

    AC3100 or AX58U as Router for Aimesh?

    When I use WiFi Analyzer on my new AI mesh, one of the 2.4 bands is on channel 6...which I explicitly chose. The other 2.4 sometimes shows on channel 1 and sometimes channel 6. I have the extension channel set to "above". Now why would they show on two different channels? For the 5.0 I chose...

    Quick shout out to RMerlin

    Actually, I sent a donation yesterday. It wasn't a lot but it was important that I showed my appreciation.

    AC3100 or AX58U as Router for Aimesh?

    Thanks. As it turns out the IP of the main router, the AX58U, is 192.168.50.1. from what I've been reading, and also what you said up above, that seems to be a "standard" IP as well. If I'm feeling rambunctious on Saturday, I may try and change it. However if I can get my 63-year-old brain to...

    AC3100 or AX58U as Router for Aimesh?

    Well the only redo I'm looking to do is to get the main router, the AX58U, to have an IP address of 192.168. 1.1. I mean it's not really a big deal and the network is running great, but it just seems "neater" to to have the IP as the "traditional" 192.168.1.1.
