    Has anyone configured DynamicDNS using IONOS? I am following their instructions and when I get to the configuration of the router, it is different. I am using a RT-AX88U Pro with the latest ASUS-Merlin. IONOS states: Configuring a Device To configure your device for Dynamic DNS: Log in to the...

    New ISP, New Speed, now need new ASUS Router

    I recently upgraded to Windstream kinetic fiber. I have the 2GB symentrical package. I left Comcast with a 1000/40 speed. I currently use a RT-AC5300 with Merlin. Performance has been fine with it and wireless OK. I am looking to upgrade to a new ASUS, compatible with Merlin and able to support...

    dnsmasq Issues [10953]

    I have attached it but it does not show the error like the syslog server does. I can attach the syslog server log but it will take some time to redact personal information. Here is a screen shot from syslog server for the start of the issue:

    dnsmasq issue that lead to crash of router

    While surfing the web, all of a sudden, I lost connection. I went into my room to see if Xfinity has rebooted and I saw the Asus RT-AC5300 with a red light. I looked at my syslog and saw many issues with dnsmaq as the tag and message. A power off and on of the router corrected the issue but I...

    OpenVPN Client Not Clearing After Reset of Configuration?

    I am using Merlin 384.14.2 on a RT-AC5300. I configured two OpenVPN clients to test with Windscribe and NordVPN. The setup went fine, I had "Force Internet traffic through tunnel" set and that worked well when turning off the client. I had specifically picked a workstation to test with. When I...

    RT-AC5300 Speeds Hampered by Merlin?

    NAT acceleration is set to AUTO in stock FW. I haven't reloaded Merlin to check it but I would assume if the upgrade keeps the settings??????

    I haven't used Merlin since my 87U. I have a RT-AC5300 that has been in production for almost a year now. I have Xfinity GB tier and consistently hover around 930, which is normal.

    AiProtection Alternative?

    I would probably be looking for something outside of the router. I have no issues with throwing up a stand-alone box, either physical or virtual. Something that would be web based for configuration would be nice. Multiple NIC configuration is fine also for internal and external access.

    AiProtection Alternative?

    I am willing to configure manually. I just want better logging and configuration. Out of the few mentioned, what would be your recommendation? This is for personal use and not required for a business or anything. just trying to keep teenagers from killing my network! ;)

    AiProtection Alternative?

    Can anyone suggest an opensource/free AiProtection alternative? I would like to have something that provides a more verbose log and more configurable that the TrendMicro built in to the ASUS/Merlin code. Thanks!

    384.4.2 87U Memory?

    I didn't pay much attention prior to update but after update my memory remains at 50%. It is running about 128 mb. Does this seem correct? I thought I remember it around 80 prior and after reboots???
