    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    Sorry, not gonna read through a 12 pages long thread... What issue specifically? Your post only indicates Scribe logging something. I have no idea how Scribe works or what it does...

    RT-BE88U won't connect to smart devices

    You should be using the IoT guest network for IoT devices. What it does basically is setup a 2.4 GHz guest with the most compatible settings possible to improve connectivity with IoT devices running often antique wifi SoCs.

    Unbound Force all DNS requests through Unbound using iptables?

    You will probably want to retain DNS resolver capabilities in dnsmasq because it will be authoritative for resolving LAN addresses.

    Unbricking RT-AC5300 using Serial

    If there's no output over serial, then the bootloader itself was trashed. You would need JTAG support to recover, and I don't know if it's publicly available for that model.

    Unbound Force all DNS requests through Unbound using iptables?

    You can get some cache usage stats dumped to syslog by sending a USR1 signal to dnsmasq. Oct 28 00:39:11 dnsmasq[4160]: time 1086314 Oct 28 00:39:11 dnsmasq[4160]: cache size 1500, 0/176 cache insertions re-used unexpired cache entries. Oct 28 00:39:11 dnsmasq[4160]: queries forwarded 59...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    Smart Connect has been quirky for years. Any fix to it will have to come from Asus, that page is unchanged from stock firmware.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    Unable to reproduce here, works fine for me with the main IoT, a custom IoT and a custom Guest. The issue is specific to the RT-BE86U, which is based on a quite different GPL version from all other models. 102_36xxx has some major changes in how wifi is handled internally. sdn_rl now contains...

    Ever wondered what's inside a wifi antenna? Here's some pics.

    The length of an antenna is determined by the frequency you want to catch with it, which is why the antenna isn't the full length of the plastic. Make it longer (or shorter), and it will not be as affective as catching the RF frequency you are aiming for. As for not putting it at the top of...

    What Guest Networks do you have defined? Any VLANs?

    Unbricking RT-AC5300 using Serial

    If the bootloader was overwritten, then you can't recover over serial.

    [Review] Asus RT-AX88U

    Not only necroposted but also off-topic. Locking this.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    Ok, thanks for the confirmation.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    Asus's engineer reworked my initial patch to address things at a lower level. Can you test this build please? RT-BE96U_3006_102.2_beta2-g157580b179_nand_squashfs.pkgtb

    Asuswrt-Merlin donation thread

    Amazon or Kobo gift cards are two other options that users have used in the past, since I regularly purchase from both of these.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    No. That`s Asus' to investigate and/or fix.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    The initial fix addressed when all SDNs were restarted. This new one will address when just the IoT SDN itself is restarted.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    There seems to be a second issue happening only when one single SDN is restarted. It only happens on one of the two routers I tested on, so it may be related to whether there are other SDNs also running at the same time. That will require more digging.

    BE98 Pro: RMerlin or Asus f/w?

    Don't compare both. Different firmwares. Everything related to wifi is closed source and outside of my control.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    Adguard home is only available on the RT-BE88U beause it runs a different GPL that includes it. It's however a temporary GPL, so any issuesp resent in it will have to wait until Asus finally provides updated GPLs for all 3006 models.
