    No WAN DNS option when using USB modem

    Hi, I am installing an RT-AX56 with Merlin and a USB 4G modem. Everything is running fine, but I find missing the DNS configuration options in the WAN tab when the USB 'WAN' is being used. I need to do this there (at the WAN level) in order for DIVERSION to keep working. If configuring DNS...

    DNSFilter client MACs inconsistency

    Hi, today I found that when adding a specific DNSFilter rule for my laptop, the router (RT-AX88U) was still using the 'default' DNSFilter rule for the network. I am using Merlin 384.13 alpha 2. What happens is that I am connected through an access point (RP-AC68U) and somehow it is the MAC...

    What is erp_monitor process and any way to restart / reset it ? (suspected slow memory leak)

    Hi, I am running my rt-ax88 for reliability test since two weeks ago already without a reset w/merlin 384.11_2 build. So far so good, but I am seeing that the 'available' memory for data (free+cache+buffers) is decreasing with an exact linear rate. At this rate the router will start swapping...

    My RT-AC3200 almost died. What to do with it?

    Hi, 10 days ago my trusty rt-ac3200 lost (suddently weakened to minimum power) its 5Ghz signal 1, and the 2.4Ghz one was also somehow affected and started acting strange. This was during a big thunderstorm so I believe it was not the hardware that caused it, but somehow a power peak or...

    command to start crond/check crond status

    Hi, I am trying to progam some cron tasks at startup on a RP-AC68U through the usb_mount script but the CRU added commands fail to execute at the scheduled time. I read somewhere that in some cases the crond daemon is not started and effectively, ps | grep crond shows it is not running. Now...

    Hi, I have been experiencing this kind of problems since more than 6 months ago, with several merlin / hgg and official flavors of the firmware, and I am looking for ideas on what to test to try to isolate this or anyone who experienced the same and found a solution. My router is RT-AC3200 ...

    Easier (working) way to priorize traffic / vlans and QoS

    Hi, I have been playing with QoS in order to make sure that my IPTV traffic gets max priority. I am using a RD-AC3200 and my IPTV traffic goes through vlan2. I am using hggomes, a merlin derivative based on 380.4180. I have been able to get some success by bandwidth limiting the more wan...

    Hi, it is a well known and commented fact that in order to get the max performance from USB3 hdds connected to our routers, disabling the 'professional' tab setting 'reduce USB3.0 interference' is a must, since otherways the device is being handled at USB2 speeds. BUT in order to do this you...

    Hello, I am attempting to overclock a bit my router, since having good ventilation and temps, in order to gain some speed in USB disk sharing. I am using the shared disk to do image backups and every MB/sec gained ends up shaving minutes from the whole process.. The problem is that I am not...
