    Entware-3x for new HND platform (GT-AC5300 and RT-AC86U) with asuswrt-merlin firmware

    @Odkrys did you install the 32bit or the 64bit aarch64?

    Custom scripts and stock firmware.

    When I was looking around for a problem I had with my asus ac86u and a usb3 hdd I came upon this post https://www.securityforrealpeople.com/2014/12/customizing-samba-on-asuswrt-wireless.html It says that: "One undocumented feature in ASUSWRT is the ability to specify a custom script to execute...

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    Dock with two hard drives or just a single external hdd doesn't make a difference in my case. Tried them both. Nope, PC region is UK as well as the unicode setting. I have tried everything I can think of. Different cables, different hard drives, 3 different windows 10 machines, formatting...

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    I have spent the entire evening yesterday again testing and playing around with different settings with no success. Windows 10 Pro 64x (different computers with different users) wired connection to ac86u. Enabled/disabled SMB1/SMB2 in windows and in router settings as well as turning on/off...

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    @RMerlin Is your hdd formatted as EXT4 like Odkrys, or it is working fine as NTFS?

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    How can you reach those speeds? I have disabled the interference option (AiProtection is also disabled) but still cannot reach more than 90MB/s on stock and more than 60MB/s on Merlin, even when I used an SSD. Which hdd do you have connected?

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    I created a NTFS partition and an EXT4 partition in a spare hard drive. No error messages or any issues with the EXT4 partition. Same error as in my original message with the NTFS partition. :( Another thing I noticed is that with the 384 oficial firmware write speed would be around 90 MB/s...

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    I have tested that also, but it was the same. Might be something with the version of the samba server used?

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    As "ColinTaylor" posted that option just enables SMB2 support in addition to SMB1. No difference in my case between ON/OFF. I have the same user accounts between asus official and Merlin. I am mapping the shared folder using the correct credentials. 3 different windows 10 machines, with...

    USB3 hdd on ac86u with Merlin FW

    I have an ac86u and I have a usb3 dock hard disk connected (disabled the interference option). It works correctly on Asus official firmware and I can indeed see speeds up to around 90 MB/s. I am accessing the shared hdd from Windows 10 x64 Pro machines either wired or wireless. I have updated...

    [Preview] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.3 pre-release test builds

    I have an ac86u and I have a usb3 dock hard disk connected (disabled the interference option). Using Merlin's firmware latest alpha or even the previous 382.1.2 stable I receive the following error: Error 0x8007010B: The directory name is invalid. I have tried all the combinations of settings...

    ASUS RT-AC86U Dual Band AC2900 Wireless Router Reviewed

    I was talking only about the RAM. I haven't seen any changes in CPU usage between having adaptive QoS on or off. In any case it seems that it is normal when using a hard drive attached. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/high-ram-usage.30157/ Thanks for the help

    ASUS RT-AC86U Dual Band AC2900 Wireless Router Reviewed

    QoS disabled reduced only 4-5% of the ram usage. I might disable it, if I don't see any benefit. When I disabled the media server/samba the ram usage fell to about 65-70%. I checked also with the Asus official latest firmware 384 and had the same results. Therefore it seems that using the media...
