    Solved My RT-AC 88u bricked after upgrading 386.5_2

    I am also getting the “Invalid firmware upload” message when trying to use the web interface to move my AC88U from 386.3_2 to 386.5_2. I have tried several reboots and unmounting USB drive, but that does seem to help in my case.

    Skynet Skynet is blocking github.com?

    I reported the issue on GitHub and 2 days later there was a new version of the add-on addressing the issue. Not sure I’d agree addressing issues in that fashion is tiresome. I’m getting a free tool with free support, so I’ll respect the developer’s desired approach for engagement, because...

    Skynet Skynet is blocking github.com?

    I reported the issue in his IPSet_ASUS repository on GitHub (after rebooting the router so that I again had access to Github, at least until the next time it blocks it...) Fingers crossed.

    Beta Lyra MAP-AC2200 AiMesh 2.0 Beta?

    Has anyone seen or heard of new firmware betas for Lyra Mini (or rest of Lyra family) that might include e.g. FragAttack fix? Seems it has gone very quiet on them since the beta firmware was posted on 52asus.com back in January.

    Beta Lyra MAP-AC2200 AiMesh 2.0 Beta?

    Does anyone have the Lyra Mini (MAP-AC1300) version of this 386 beta firmware they could share? I’m tempted to try it, although am still wondering why the only place where these betas cropped up was 52asus.com, rather than there being more debate around the betas e.g. here.

    Beta Lyra MAP-AC2200 AiMesh 2.0 Beta?

    Do we know what the origin of this firmware is? Are we sure it is not some hacked ‘special edition’? It just seems a bit strange that it popped up in some forum months ago, but there is very little information on it. Is it a genuine Asus beta, and is it still being actively developed towards a...

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    I uninstalled uiScribe, uninstalled Scribe, forced a reinstall of Skynet, rebooted, and then reinstalled Scribe (and uiScribe). That seems to have fixed the issue.

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    Another observation: my Skynet log entries and the log fragments seem to have a time stamp that is in UTC, while other log entries (e.g. OpenVPN) are in local time zone (which for me is British Summer Time for now). So the log entries strangely jump around by a one hour offset, depending on...

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    Thanks @cmkelley. My Scribe status looks ok: You are right that most of the log entries do indeed have the host name between time and ‘kernel’. I think the original log entries I posted didn’t, and a little further down from them in the log there were ‘klogd exiting’ and ‘syslogd exiting’...

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    Thanks. My rc.func.syslog-ng is very similar to the one you posted, with the only two differences being: In the first if-then statement under 'kill_logger', my first line inside it is 'cat /tmp/syslog.log >> /opt/var/log/messages', while yours was 'cat /tmp/syslog.log >>...

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    The conf files have not been manually edited by me, so they should be as per what the installation creates. Skynet’s syslog appears to be in the right location, with the print debug info including: Syslog Location; (/opt/var/log/skynet-0.log) (/tmp/syslog.log-1) Running the "syslog-ng -Fevd"...

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    Skynet config in syslog-ng.d looks like this: # this MUST BE the file configured in Skynet as the syslog.log location # DO NOT use /tmp/syslog.log or /opt/var/log/messages here! destination d_skynet { file("/opt/var/log/skynet-0.log"); }; # logs everything from Skynet to...

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    Thanks. Yes, all scripts are up to date; already checked with amtm. The first things I tried when I spotted it (days ago, on two separate AC88U routers) was to check that all add-on scripts were up to date, and rebooted the router.

    Scribe Log entry fragments in Scribe

    I‘ve noticed that my log (using Scribe) under ‘system messages’ category is full of strange entries that look like incomplete log lines. I think they might be part of entries that should fall under Skynet’s log entries for inbound blocks, but it seems they are missed from that and partly...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    I noticed that after installing Skynet, I don’t seem to be able to change Firewall logging settings in the GUI, it reverts back to logged packet type ‘dropped’ when I try to apply a change to ‘none’. Is this expected behaviour? I like what Skynet does and the stats on its own firewall tab in...

    OpenVPN Vulnerability

    So just to check: is the compression option ‘None’ also safe from this exploit? On my OpenVPN server setup it seems that ‘Disabled’ kills access for the clients (they connect but cannot access anything), while ‘None’ seems to work. I’d prefer to not have to reissue all client configs...

    What 3G modems are people using with their Asus?

    I'm using the ZTE MF823, bought in the UK. That dongle works ok directly with the ASUS routers (at least AC87u and AC88U) for simple connectivity, but if you need something that works through the CGNAT that most dongles now seem to apply (e.g. if you want to use DDNS), I've found that using...

    4G dongle that passes external IP to router?

    And that's indeed what I did in the end: I got a Dovado Tiny, acting in bridge mode with the ZTE 4G dongle, with the Dovado LAN end connected to the WAN port of the Asus router. For some reason the Dovado box can work around the CGNAT while Asus couldn't (despite it being the same 4G dongle)...

    4G dongle that passes external IP to router?

    Thanks sfx2000. The 4G providers' usual CGNAT is not the issue here. I have a mobile internet contract that specifically gives me a public IP and allows incoming connections. But the dongle won't pass it through to the router - that's the issue. The issue is NAT by the dongle, not by the 4G...

    4G dongle that passes external IP to router?

    Thanks JDB. Interesting idea on using a Dovado Tiny as a bridging device. The odd thing is that Dovado's dongle modem compatibility list for bridging includes the ZTE MF823 dongle I have. This suggests that somehow by plugging the dongle into that device the Dovado can get rid of the dongle...
