    ZenWifi ET8 Guest Network Mesh

    Good questions: ASUS 3.0.0.4.388_25124 (No Merlin available yet, right?) I'm aware of the trap of having the pi-hole server on my intranet and the guest network unable to reach it, but right now I'm just testing with standard Cloudflare DNS and still see the same problem. Once I can get...

    ZenWifi ET8 Guest Network Mesh

    Trying to put all my IOT devices on my guest network and still run pihole on my regular. Everything seems to work fine from the router, but the IOT network will only appear on the mesh node for a few minutes, and then will no longer serve new addresses via DHCP. Yes, I've configured the...

    Controlling DHCP DNS for guest network

    Well, once I got over the "run this curl script to install random software on your router" fear hurdle, this did the trick. Thanks!

    Controlling DHCP DNS for guest network

    I'm running 386.13 on an AC5300 (yes I know, it's time to upgrade the hardware). I also run a PiHole container on my NAS and point all my DNS to that. I also have a guest network which I prefer to not have access to my home devices. Unfortunately, that means the guest network can't...

    RT-AC5300_386.12_4 update bricked my router (rescue mode worked)

    So I was recently plagued by the "kernel: dcd/xxxx: potentially unexpected fatal signal 6" error. Did some searching and saw it was a bug in 12_3. Went through the normal upgrade steps via the HTTP interface which worked great on my RT-AC68U but then I got a suspicious "Please manually...

    How to boot config swap on USB

    So after the recent asd memory leak fiasco, I added a thumb drive to my AC5300 and created a swap drive there. I went to edit /etc/fstab, and found an empty file, so now I'm wondering whats the right way to add the swap on reboot and make sure it happens AFTER the USB drive is automounted...

    To anyone who started seeing strange high CPU and memory usage - Merlin is not affected!

    FWIW: I saw the issue on both my AC5300 and AC68U (the later in AP mode) with the latest ASUS images. Reflashed both routers with Merlin 386.11 last night. No problems over the last 12 hours. Note, I didn't need to do a NVRAM reset. Configs were untouched and are working fine.

    RT-AX89X suddenly started using a lot more CPU and memory leak leads to lockup every ~10mins

    FWIW: It hit both my AC5300 and my AC68U running in AP mode. asd sucking up all memory and crashing the system. Discovered Merlin tonight and reflashed with the latest release builds. Looking good for now. BTW: What is asd supposed to do?

    To anyone who started seeing strange high CPU and memory usage - Merlin is not affected!

    Mine started crashing today. Runs out of memory in about 30 minutes and crashes soon after that. Running top right now and watching the "asd" process suck up all the memory. If you kill it, it auto-restarts and you gain yourself another 20 minutes or so! 😁 I found Merlin and this site...
