    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    I don't know how to say it again, I'm not interested in DSL features but only RT features, I've already tried flashing GNUton's cfw it does not have access point mode or repeater mode! I'm just asking this time why is my plc blinking orange amd not green, so why do I only get sd flows instead of...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    Hello everyone, It's been a while since I didn't post anything, mainly cause I was like I'm done trying and stuff. Anyway, I've changed some things now, I flashed the latest official RT-AC68U(Remember My router is a DSL-AC68U :)) And I have changed working mode to AP mode instead of repeater...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    Why was it hard for me to understand that, cause i believe in md5 checksums, and flashing correct fw into their designed hardwares. I've had problems in the past flashing wrong fw to routers, ot other devices, most of em resulted in hard bricks and I could never get them to work again. So when...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    Wait a minute... Are you telling me, that I was using a fw that was meant completely for the RT-AC68u and not at all for the Dsl-Ac68u, and it flashed no problem and this is why I'm having issues? Man, I tought that if the flash is complete a.d done means it was meant for it, I've never seen a...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    You don't have to defend the develloper to make a point I didn't assault him or his work, I said I don't need his firmware, cause I don't need dsl features! I said merlin cfw could have some channel settings for wifi, that was my only notice, and I would shake his hands no problem! I guess you...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    I found a great deal and bought that router, it was so cheap and conveniant! I gave Like 3 routers and 30$ or something and I read online that I could use it as an RT-AC68u! And it's true I'm using it as it is, but you're right not the right move for me.. I would love to ssh into my router and...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    I was right not to download gnuton2 or whatever. I'm under the impression that no body understood why I really created this thread! Did you guys realize that gnuton2 that l&LD suggested days ago, is definitely something I don't need?? I flashed it, it doesn't have repeater or ap mode settings...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    You did and you also gave me directives and instructions to reset my router, including the NVRAM, and bunch of stuff and I appreciate that.. I just thought at that moment that I didn't need to change the fw.:rolleyes:

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    I didn't understand the difference between Merlin asuswrt and GNUton or whatever the name was, I thought he was making sure I got the latest release or build of the fw or something.. And that 2nd post didn't say use GNUton instead and here's the link, but it said here is a fw page for your...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    Okay, can you then please kindly send the link of that fw for my asus DSL-AC68U ? I've tried googling the gnuton fw I always land on merlin Asuswrt. Thank you!

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    Okay, so what do you suggest, to put it back to asus official firmware? I wouldn't be able to use it as a repeater.. Or Should I flash that second custom firmware GNUton or something?

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    I know it's the not the exact hardware since the dsl version has a built in modem that rt doesn't have, but when you flash a software it all depends on the cpu, gpu and ram I suppose, and they seemtl to have both the same hardware, that's what I meant. I would appreciate another link of the...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    I had no idea there was another custom firmware for dsl-ac68u, I thought that was the only solution to get my router to become a repeater wirelessly! Can you please send me the link so I'll fladh the other firmware instead? And please note that I only intend to use it as repeater or access point...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    That make sens according to what you've just said,I still believe my main router is terrible and I need to change it if I want full speed wifi.. You still think I need to reset the NVRAM and update the firmware?

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    I think you're right about speed, because I have just run a speed test connecting an ethernet cable to a computer and I got 97mbps so speed is fine! However wifi never exceeds 35mbps! The guy didn't show up yet so I didn't test it yet, sorry.. So what if my friend's mobile can detect it again...

    Dsl-AC68u cfw merlin issues

    Speed is halved!? Jesus I got to wire it then! :D In the box it says adsl, vdsl and fiber router, so there is probably a way to use fiber optic on it.. I would love if I could use it as the main router too and use a tp link archer ac1200 or something as ap mode wirelessly since tp link offers...
