I am using various ASUS routers in AP mode since I gave up on Aimesh. I noticed all these AP's now have 5ghz hidden network broadcasting. I already went to each AP in the aimesh page and enabled ethernet backhual mode. but it appears to have not done anything. Does anyone know of a nvram...

It has always bugged me how the Aimesh nodes had to keep the same channels as the main router. I been playing with it for a while and I have concluded that the nvram methods posted all over the forum are useless. The way that Aimesh nodes work is whenever they are in this mode and the wireless...

I have a dual wan setup where I can failover to my secondary wan which is tethered to a cellular hotspot. I tried the amtm wan failover script and it allowed me to connect to the gateway IP on the secondary wan network. The script itself did not work correctly in my case over the asus stock...

Hello, Since I installed the latest Merlin, I have been having my WAN go down aright after 3am daily for the last week or so. I have no clue what could be causing this. Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this? I checked for any event logs on my modem and it never shows anything...

I wanted to share if anyone who has been using AImesh and enabled guest network 1 slot and set it to be enabled in their guest nodes might have network issues. I have been basically having this issue for 2 years where random clients sometimes just wont be able to be pinged. I just assumed that...

Has anyone who uses Apache Guacamole got SSH to ever work with Asus routers? I can not for the love of me figure out why I can not ssh using the Apache Guacamole. IIs there a way to follow the log output of ssh sessions in the asus router? My guess is some sshd_config that is specific to it...

Hello All, Hope I can get some help. I have a ax86u with merlin latest and 3 XD4 mesh nodes. Every so often i see the log below and one random mesh node is in the offline state. I am usually able to ssh into the node and send the command "reboot" and it recovers. Other times I need to power...

I use Home assistant and I like to keep tabs on some of my devices like managed switches and ESXi hosts. The issue i run into is that these devices do not stay in the arp table as I guess the device never reaches out for internet activity. I tried using a network scanner which will ping/reach...

I have a 8 port switch which i have been using 802.3ad which works in general. I do use AI mesh where my whole env reports all my devices correctly except anything on the switch. I use a few old ac86's as ethernet only mesh nodes, as in no wifi enabled on them to keep track of devices. I plan to...

Can merlin get rid of this random anime robot theme? I got the router because non of the non themed ax86u's where in stock. I though just the physical appearance changed, not the ui,....

I try to bind clients to the nearest node, and no matter what aimesh says its optimized to connect to one across the house when there is a node in the same room as a device. Any tips to get around this? I already tried lowering radio power from main router and changes channels. It just seem...

Hello I have an AC88U and recently purchased XD4's which work great in AI mesh mode. I do notice that they are only connecting clients via AC mode only. Is it possible to have the XD4's use AX or am I just limited by the highest setting from my AC88u which is AC and WPA2. Thanks!

I am having an issue where I am unable to create CA files for my ipsec. ME@RT-AC88U-A038:/jffs/ca_files# pki --gen --size 2048 --outform pem > /jffs/ca_files/ca.pem ME@RT-AC88U-A038:/jffs/ca_files# pki --self --in /jffs/ca_files/ca.pem --dn "C=TW,O=ASUS,CN=ASUS RT-AC88U-A038 Root CA" --ca...

So i have this weird set up. two routers ac88u and ac86u right next to each other because it is in my network rack. In the past i had it where one was a AP so the channels were 1 and 11, but i did not like that the host list was showing half the hosts all the time. I tried aimesh and it solved...

Hello i was wondering if anyone knows of a way to monitor for new MAC addresses on ac88u and send an email if one has been detected? I was looking at using something like this https://www.arpalert.org/arpalert.html please let me know if you have another solution that works? thanks

Hello all, I was hoping I can get someone's opinion on settings I should put for my lame gigabit Comcast, more like something bit. So I technically have the 1000/35 plan with Comcast. I have the latest merlin on an ac88u. I get throughout the day without any QOS speeds as low as 300/5 and...
