    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.12 is now available for AC models

    Thank you for the explanation! (And of course a big thank you for your ongoing work.) Your point on the JFFS is particularly helpful. I'd added the step after previously being advised that it may not be cleared as part of the factory reset...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.12 is now available for AC models

    Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure I fully understand what you're saying, but let me clarify... The USB drive is an external HDD, and is only used for shared network storage via Samba. I don't run any amtm/scripts. In fact, my configuration is pretty minimal (SSID, password, time zone, reboot...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.12 is now available for AC models

    Apologies if this clarification was already made, but is this script still necessary if performing a factory reset after upgrading from 386.10 to 386.12 on AC68U? Also, my aim is to have the cleanest possible starting point following a firmware upgrade, and these are the steps I follow. Any...

    Upgrade from old firmware

    Thanks for the insight! I guess it must be a continually appended log or something along those lines. It also lines up with this observation...

    Upgrade from old firmware

    Thank you for the clarification. I understand more clearly now. I automatically think of database in terms of quantity of data. It's very interesting that usage time is such a factor.

    Upgrade from old firmware

    Thank you, that's great info. Anything else I should look at to get it completely clean? BTW, I normally perform a reset by going to [Administration - Restore/Save/Upload Setting], checking the "Initialize all the settings..." box next to the Restore button, and then clicking Restore. Is...

    Upgrade from old firmware

    Thanks, but I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. I didn't run the database maintenance, per se. When the 386.2.6 upgrade (on main router) took an unusually long time, I searched for a reason and found that as the explanation for the GUI delay. As stated, my configuration is pretty...

    Upgrade from old firmware

    "...and defects" LOL. Thanks for the reply. That was my original understanding. Any insight as to the counterintuitive difference in upgrade times between the 2 routers? Now that I think about it, I think my original router may have started connecting devices sooner than later following the...

    Upgrade from old firmware

    Hello, my apologies if this has been answered, but my searches came up short. Does Merlin firmware always incorporate all previous firmware changes? I found an AC68U (HW ver A1 with 800MHz CPU) at a garage sale and thought it would be nice to have a spare or maybe tinker with AiMesh. I reset...
