    Safety of a second hand asus router

    If you have reset it, it is as safe as new.

    FS: Linksys E4200 v1 Wireless Routers

    Wow. I can't sell an rt-a68u for $40 around my area. Lol

    Is my AC1900 / AC68U bricked and cannot be restored?

    Nothing you can do. Get another router.

    RT-N66U Power light slowly flashes.

    Flashing power light means it's in recovery mode. Hooking up a serial cable to the router is simple. The hardest thing is taking the cover off.

    DD-WRT firmware upgrade (.trx vs .bin file)

    Only use the trx files. Both brainslayer and Kong only publish trx files for the rt-ac5300. The Kong and bs versions are interchangeable.

    Asus RT-AC5300 serial pinout

    Don’t do a 30/30/30 on newer routers. Especially not asus routers.

    Asus RT-AC5300 serial pinout

    I also prefer to use tftpd32. You could use the cfe mini web server or the asus firmware restoration utility. Set your pc like this: 192.168.1.9, 255.255.255.0, 192.168.1.1 If you don’t ping responses of ttl=100 after the became erase then you can’t upload the firmware and you will get a...

    Asus RT-AC5300 serial pinout

    flash -noheader : nflash1.trx Best to recover it with stock fw. Or if you want use the trx build of Kong’s. Are you getting ping responses of ttl=100? http://www.desipro.de/ddwrt/K3-AC-Arm/Asus-RT-AC5300-firmware.trx

    Asus RT-AC5300 serial pinout

    I'm willing to try if you want me to.

    Asus RT-AC5300 serial pinout

    Where are you located? If you want to pay for two way shipping, I can try for you. I've fixed a few routers for people on the dd-wrt forum.

    Asus RT-AC5300 serial pinout

    If you get putty output by hooking up the wires after it boots, that's ok. Strange but ok. Also, the Ethernet goes into one of the LAN ports then to your pc. Not the wan port. Yes, you will need an Ethernet cable going from your pc to a LAN port of the router.

    Asus RT-AC5300 serial pinout

    Start pressing control and c as soon as you power up the router. This should interrupt the boot process. Then type nvram erase. That should reset it. There is no jtag support for this.

    RT-N66U Power light slowly flashes.

    Hook up a serial cable and see what it is doing.

    DD-WRT for Asus rt-ac5300

    I guess I won't be attempting to fix it. Lol

    RT-AC66U-B1 Only Legacy?

    Make sure you have the right router. Are your antenna removable? If they are, it's a plain rt-ac66u.
  16. Pierino

    ASUS RT-AC66U 1750 Mbps.

    The 5ghz signal doesn't travel as far as the 2.4ghz. You are going to have problems getting the signal outside, regardless of the router you buy.

    RT-AC86U Default IP Address

    It is 192.168.50.1

    Asus RT-N66U Merlin will not flash

    Yes. You can't use the firmware for the rt-ac68u on an rt-n66u.

    ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware to DDRTW but fails to upload Merlin

    The way to get back to asus or rmerlin is to follow the steps John and I pointed out. If then once you are back on newer asus/rmerlin and want to try dd-wrt again, you will have to use the cfe mini web server in order to flash it due to the checks asus implemented in newer firmware.
