    Can't change wifi channel settings

    I have two different routers running 384.19 and I'm having problems changing the channel settings or bandwidth on both the rt-ac88u running in normal router mode and the rt-ac86 running in repeater mode. Anyone else seen this? In the example below, changing channel bandwidth or control channel...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 384.19 is now available

    No sure what version this bug came in. On .18 and .19 version of the code, the rt-ac86u can't change the channels for 2.4 ghz when in repeater mode. Always comes up to channel 10. Can't even switch it to auto. I'm using 5ghz for backhaul so no need to change that channel on the repeater...

    Suricata Suricata - IDS on AsusWRT Merlin

    Before i dip my toes in again with suricata, what kind of throughput are you guys getting? These routers are pretty limited in both cpu and memory. In my experience i had to run suricata on on i5/i7 with at least 16gb of ram to perform well. I even built a vm to route all my traffic through...

    RT-AC3200 can't configure WDS to RT-AX88U using Router Mode

    WDS has no encryption. You are better off setting up the 2nd rt-ac3200 in repeater mode. Even Aimesh would be better than wds.

    rt-ac88u under heavy file transfer (35gig file) between machines on wired ports the router becomes unresponsive on webui, does not respond to ping, and internet is not accessible. Layer 2 however continues to work. As soon as the large file transfer is complete the router becomes responsive...

    what happens if I disable UPnP?

    I will respectfully disagree. When guests come over, do you give them keys to come and go as they please to your house? Are you prepared for the big party they throw at your house while you are at work? Did they have the foresight to lock the door so your pets don't get out? Did they close...

    RT-AC86U (384.7.2) not acting as master browser

    master browser functionality is part of smb1 which was deprecated/disabled in the most recent versions of windows. I don't know that it should impact the older windows 7, windows 8, os's because as i understand it they have been dropped from the support list and getting any updates...

    what happens if I disable UPnP?

    There's no debate about it really, upnp is fundamentally insecure. If sticking your head in the sand makes you feel better. Well <shrug> no skin off my back. https://www.howtogeek.com/122487/htg-explains-is-upnp-a-security-risk/

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    You can manually url surf to a lot of the menus hidden when you enable repeater mode http://<yourrepeaterip>/Advanced_WAdvanced_Content.asp http://<yourrepeaterip>/Advanced_Wireless_Content.asp looks like disabling the wireless radio radio isn't one of them. I would just make sure the 2.4ghz...

    Skynet Skynet - Router Firewall & Security Enhancements

    Adamm, Any plans to support ipv6? and how about building our own community blacklist? I don't mind having my skynet data compiled for Good. In fact, i'd be willing to turn on dropped inbound traffic logging if it helps the cause. Maybe an opt in option?
