    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    Yes, it has 2.x.x.x ... I read over @Engineer 's CFE update process, looks quite involved. Is there any real need to update? The only issue I have is with Wifi cameras and my Irrigation Controller frequently disconnecting - and I'm not sure if the Router or not (there is nothing in the house...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    @john9527 - thx. I understand, though it kinda sux ;-) ... The AP is acting as an extender and though we can create a separate Guest SSID on the AP it does not provide all the same controls that a Guest SSID does on the Router. Problem with this is that using a Guest SSID on the AP partly...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    I'm not sure this is accurate or I don't understand how this can be the case since they are completely separate WIFI networks (SSIDs) on separate routers. On the main AC68R (mode: Wireless router) the WIFI Guest network 'Secure1' has the option to 'Access Intranet' to On/Off. On the secondary...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    Question on Guest Wifi Network setting... I'm running two AC68R with 3.0.0.4.374.43_2-17E8j9527. I went to create 2 separate guest networks, one on each AC68 and the setting 'Access Intranet' was only available on the unit with Operation Mode set to "Wireless router" but not the other which is...

    AC68U - Manually Assigned IPs - inside or outside the DHCP Pool range?

    I prefer to use DHCP reservations (aka Manually Assigned) - Some devices I set static IP on the device, others I do not. Do I need to ensure the DHCP Pool settings, in the ASUS, cover the Manually Assigned address range also - os will the router properly handle IPs that I set in the Manually...

    Chance Merlin can support WDS security?

    For those following this thread... Using merlin on the main router and installed Shibby tomato on the WDS-side router... All works perfectly even with security enabled. Using merlin on both sides, even with identical Ac68u routers was unstable. The distance is only about 20 feet and two...

    Why is OpenVPN Server 1 - Running - VPN is disabled

    I just noticed my OpenVPN Server 1 was on also... no clue why. I turned it off. I'm hoping this was causing m network slowness... though I was seeing VERY low Wifi N speeds on 5GHz.

    Traffic Monitor for 5GHz not working?

    I just started having issues with what acts like the network being saturated. Rebooting the router does not fix it, thus I suspect something in my network is hammering the router. I can see tons of stuff on the Internet and 2.4GHz tabs but nothin-zippo-zilch on 5GHz, which is odd since I have...

    Scheduling rebooting??

    What would the script be for a nightly reboot? I have two AC68U routers and one becomes non-responsive every 2-3 days. A nightly reboot will eliminate this issue. thanks!

    Chance Merlin can support WDS security?

    @AndreyPopov ... nice find, thank you! @RMerlin ... is there a way to limit MAC address ONLY on the 5GHz radio? - Not perfect but it would provide basic security. - Someone would have to know the MAC addresses of the routers and have to know you were limiting them to crack into the...

    Chance Merlin can support WDS security?

    Looks like others (TP-Lin, DD-WRT, etc) support WDS with AES... any chance we can get this? I want to use WDS Hybrid but really not happy with having an insecure radio thanks!

    WDS vs repeater mode

    Are you still using this setup? I just setup WDS across two AC68U routers using Merlin FW and it works fine but I'm concerned with not having security on 5GHz. I want to enable clients to connected both wired and 2.4GHz Wifi and only use the 5GHz for the bridge/repeating. any advice is...
