    Samba bug with admin login

    I am fed enough with various trolls telling me get rid of nas, get rid of router, get rid of windows, get rid of car... I want to get rid of these insects. i.e. it does not solve a problem. router attached storage works wonderful as NAS, except user/rights management in current firmware. I have...

    Samba bug with admin login

    It looks that while Samba in Merlin shares main admin login and password, the number of SMB connections is limited to 1, regardless of configured in corresponding section of webGUI. This creates certain obstacles, confusion and panic, when you try to manage your NAS from windows; which often...

    Sync HDD Drive to OneDrive Business

    Probably, the question should look like this: Is there a linux client for MS OneDrive, and is it available for Merlin for syncing to/from attached USB drive in unattended mode? I.e. while all the windows laptops and workstations are offline

    About JFFS, /temp and storing system data on USB HDD?

    sorry.. already got an answer for /temp in my topic about mc. by the book means "ipkg install mc" well... Merlin is very new to me. I am not native to Linux world, and was using generally PC/HDD based linuxes... and some early Asus-500GP hacked firmware.

    Configuring MC in merlin and PuTTY in windows.

    Ah, I got it. So /temp is really a ramdisk. And thank you for providing a correct place for storing. I guess, /opt/share/terminfo if physically in JFFS range, and should be commited afterwards? about Putty. I should choose at least any of the available terminals, and any of the input standards...

    Configuring MC in merlin and PuTTY in windows.

    I have installed MC, but it looks ugly B/W, does not respond to arrowkeys. I guess, I have wrong terminal and keyboard. But don't know which I have to select in Putty, or how should I fix it in MC's config (and store it persistently)

    About JFFS, /temp and storing system data on USB HDD?

    As far as I know, in order to make a user changes based on filesystem (configs, or software) in bare router I have to enable JFFS, where Merlin refers for critical scripts, then dump changes every time I reconfig something. 1) But do I need JFFS, when there is a USB HDD is attached, and I do...

    Merlin 384.7_beta2 (3?) @ AC68U HDD spindown(sleep) does not work.

    Can you tell this to Microsoft Windows developers? They do not know, and set the timers from OS. And it works somehow.

    Merlin 384.7_beta2 (3?) @ AC68U HDD spindown(sleep) does not work.

    But it do spin-down when attached to Windows laptop. And power-management is in specifications (not APM/slow-down, but PM is there). So, it should be an OS/software(firmware) problem. BTW, HM502JX has a JMICRON sata-USB bridge soldered onboard. And it is kind-of pass-through capable, because...

    Merlin 384.7_beta2 (3?) @ AC68U HDD spindown(sleep) does not work.

    well, "final" has the same problem. I tried switching to USB2 mode at "blue" port, but it does not help.

    Merlin 384.7_beta2 (3?) @ AC68U HDD spindown(sleep) does not work.

    Ah, I see what you mean. Final is uploaded 15 hours ago. But the update check in beta2 was showing beta3 as newest. Probably, that is another bug of update-check feature.

    Merlin 384.7_beta2 (3?) @ AC68U HDD spindown(sleep) does not work.

    isn't beta3 the newest one? there were nothing in changelist of betas regarding the HDD sleep function, so I installed beta.

    Merlin 384.7_beta2 (3?) @ AC68U HDD spindown(sleep) does not work.

    When I tried Merlin 384.7_beta2, I was offered a new option of spinning down an attached USB HDD by timeout, as it is regularly done by any user OS. But for some reason my HDD always spins, regardless of timeout. HDD: Adata Superior SH02 (SAMSUNG HM502JX) with native USB2 interface. USB port...

    How to change language of latest firmware of AC68U?

    I got it. Already found your earlier explanation; it just took some time finding it. I only state here the sadness of the fact, what I was offered Merlin-WRT as a solution earlier, before ASUS made that irritating change. "Open code", they say. :-/ And yes, they simply ignore every inquiry...

    How to change language of latest firmware of AC68U?

    Well.. and I use 5G. And prefer auto, because I tend to forget things I reconfigured a few years ago. I bookmarked this topic in the beginning of this year, and did not expect things got that worse :-(

    How to change language of latest firmware of AC68U?

    From "safe" solutions I got only "overload dictionary" method, which is neither user-oriented, nor stable solution... I guess I got what message you mean, but there is: "Do not use autochannel, only manually set those allowed in your region!" well... breaking the radio in order to get a...

    How to change language of latest firmware of AC68U?

    actually I tried, and didn't get a working method. can you please, avoid speaking riddles, and just give the link? It would save some meters of text. "reduce kilobytes, save earth"

    How to change language of latest firmware of AC68U?

    It appears, they sneaked this malicious nazi code to your latest beta 384.7_beta2 I installed Merlinwrt particularly in order to get that language selection feature. And it does not work. Neither "nvram set preferred_lang=EN" works. It is stuck in creeping Japanese, and I don't know what to do...
