    AddOns newbie...

    Just added the Merlin Firmware Version: 3.0.0.4.386_42095 to my new AX86U router. Missing the Merlin logo once logged in, but otherwise, it's been working fine. I just happen to notice all of the available addons for this firmware, there are quite of few of them: The installation procedure...

    Thanks for the short and precise explanation of terminologies... Both of my current TVs have built-in wireless connections and one also has a Roku-stick. The N66U has no issues with streaming to both TVs with HD resolution. I didn't think that the N66U would support UHD resolution and had been...

    No need for running a wireless bridge in my small house, the single router does/did provided ample coverage. The N66U will replace my even older Lynksys wireless router as the travel router for hotels. That was quick, the AX66U will be delivered on this Friday; getting it in two days caught me...

    @ColinTaylor While I have reservation for utilizing the router's USB interface for network storage, due to security implications, network throughput concerns, etc., it'll be tested with AX86U. I'd still like to see backup/restore/firmware update, etc., directly accessing the USB interface...

    My apologies for mistyping Merlin, I guess it happens with other fisherman too...;) So, you cannot use the router's USB port to backup the router, correct? If that's the case, then why would you need the latest USB port for a computer? After all, the downloading/uploading the router...

    Is the referenced link for installing AsusRT-Merlin firmware? My N66R used to have that firware, until Marlin stopped updating it, then the router got the AsusRT that also no longer updated anymore by Asus. Hence moving to the AX86U. Once the new router is running with the latest frimware and...

    Thank you all for your help and quick responses, much appreciated... AX68U it is, ordered, delivery promised in two weeks... Not being able to restore the N66R configuration to the new router is probably a blessing. I'll just redesign the current network, IP ranges, SSIDs, etc., in advance...

    It's more like a broadband wireless router, instead of AP, you are correct... For all practical purposes, even the AX68U is an overkill for my current needs. The reason for picking the AX88U is more of a future proofing and longer update support. The question is then, which one will have less...

    Thanks... Well, not exactly... I should have mentioned that the current AP configuration is anything but "standard". It's a non-default IP address range, reserved IPs, SSIDs, MAC adddress filtering, etc. It's not that hard to replicate the current configuration manually, but would had been a...

    Hello, new to the forum, please be gentle... My current AP is a single RT-N66R, with firmware v. 3.0.0.4.382_51641 that had been serving me well. This AP used to have the Marlin firmware as well, until its support ended couple of years ego and so did Asus updates awhile ego. At least, I could...
