    Random "You cannot login unless logout another user first" lockouts

    When I log into the admin UI for my ZenWiFi Pro XT12 using my personal admin account, the "You cannot login unless logout another user first." will inevitably pop up and I am locked out for several minutes. There doesn't seem to be a specific part of the admin UI that triggers it. In fact, I can...

    ASUS devices supporting AI-Mesh

    Can anyone definitively say if this includes the TM-AC1900 once it has had its CFE modified so the firmware can be updated to the latest Merlin-WRT and therefore the equivalent of an RT-AC68U/P? I ask because I went through the arduous process, but after I finally was able to update the firmware...

    ASUS devices supporting AI-Mesh

    Is there a definitive list of all the ASUS devices that support AI Mesh? I found a third party list that might include all of the Asus routers that support it but I can’t say it’s definitive nor does it list any access points. I don’t know if that’s because access points aren’t supported or if...

    NONACSD channel switching

    Thanks for explaining what this means. Since I started using AI-Mesh (ASUSWRT-Merlin) to get around the "stickiness" problem with running two APs with the same SSID, I did have much faster speeds when close to the slave AP since the client would actually switch to, but there are occasions where...

    Is the RT-AC88U a dud?

    I experienced the popular WiFi dropout problem for which ASUS warranty-swapped with their usual efficiency, but even the new unit seems to have VLAN issues where traffic to the WAN port just stops and requires a restart. I’m curious if other owners have also had problems with their replacement...

    AI Mesh and Melin - The Short Answer

    I have beeen a devout Merlin WRT user for easily 5-6 years now after being so royally disappointed at how ASUS factory firmware is so obtuse and arcane for reasons never fully understood, and that's not to mention frequent from stability issues. Melin's work made going that route a no brainer...

    RT-AC68U... Is it bricked?

    Holy s__t! That worked! You are a monster of rock, Kyle. I probably missed this because I was looking specifically for threads specific the RT-AC68U. You clearly are the better googler. ;) And here I was about to crack the thing open to access the serial port like that poor guy did Thanks so...

    RT-AC68U... Is it bricked?

    Maybe, if I dig far enough. Why? Do you have a specific reason to consider that the transformer is faulty based on the symptoms I described? The best way I could describe the behavior is that the reset button seems ineffectual.

    RT-AC68U... Is it bricked?

    Welp, I have tried uploading the firmware and it uploaded OK and I waited for it to "take" but basically it will stay up for a bout 5-10 minutes and then it seems to power cycle on its own. I see all the lights flash like a nortmal power cycle but it never gets beyond the power LED steady on and...

    RT-AC68U... Is it bricked?

    I found this page which tells how to upload the firmware using tftpt which I was able to do. It took a few minutes to upload the trx package and I gave it 10 minutes to "set". I had rebooted and it was on the same IP but it didn't seem to give any joy but at on point after a reset I ran nmap...

    RT-AC68U... Is it bricked?

    Hi, I am again trying my luck at trying to factory reset a RT-AC68U that I gave up on a while back because I didn't have the time. I had Tomato running on it previously but it was super unstable and while attempting to perform a factory restore it because stuck in this state where it is the link...

    New AC88U wifi dropping

    I have a similar problem that has cropped up since a firmware update probably about 6 months ago. Router is about a year old and has up until then been rock solid. I installed Merlin's ASUS-WRT on day one and it's been magnificent up until it wasn't, after maybe 6moths and several FW updates...

    DNS not working locally for ASUSWRT (RT-AC88U)

    Makes sense. How else would DNS filtering work unless it had a local exception somehow which could used in a way to circumvent the security somehow unless you specifically specify it to do so. I will see if I can replicate the configuration so DNS security checking happens after local...

    DNS not working locally for ASUSWRT (RT-AC88U)

    I discovered what the cause is. I had turned on DNSFilter to see if that would help with security as I have newbs in the house now, but apparently this breaks local DNS. :(

    DNS not working locally for ASUSWRT (RT-AC88U)

    DNS not working locally for ASUSWRT (RT-AC88U) I have been run ASUSWRT on a number of wifi routers using ASUSWRT for many years and have never had any problems getting local DNS to work by simply defining the hosts in the DHCP assignments GUI which uses the MAC ID to identify hosts and give...

    Interested in a 1 year tricked-out TVS-473?

    Thanks for the input. You are echoing what I already believe to be true. Even when I have a 3 year transferable extended warranty on the thing, I think if someone is going to If I may bloviate on the topic, the other problem is that, like you and probably everyone else on this channel, are...

    Interested in a 1 year tricked-out TVS-473?

    Hi there, I have owned my TVS-473 for exactly a year and while I absolutely love it, I no longer am working out of my house and while it rocks for my media collection, its total overkill as I am not longer using it to provide mass storage for my workstation. On top of that, I tricked it out with...

    Airplay 2 on mesh

    I’ve never tried AirPlay over mesh specifically, but I will say that AirPlay is very finicky over WiFi. I have had better success limiting traffic to be over 5 GHz exclusively. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

    My RT-AC88U bombed on Cloudflare DNS servers today - SOLVED

    Yikes, that hasn’t happened on mine but I have not installed updates recently. Are you using ASUS or Merlin WRT? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
