    IPv6 and NextDNS Configuration Assistance Request

    Just discovered this amazing tool and subscribed, loving it! I have recently moved to a new ISP that supports "native" IPv6. I am using a Asus RT-AC86u with Merlin, and Cloudflare DNS as default resolver, with NextDNS set up as TLS resolver with IPv6 and TLS address - although the command line...

    DNS Support - Secure DNS and Encrypted SNI

    Running Cloudflare DNS via WAN settings. Seems to be working fine except the Cloudflare DNS checker tool shows DNSSEC and certificate TLS works, however Secure DNS and Encrypted SNI is not. Does anyone know if this is supported in the firmware and if possible how to get it working? It's a...

    Route VPN clients through traffic analyser and LAN access

    Running an Open VPN server to my Android phone via "VPN Client Pro". By default all VPN clients go to the 10.x network. Would it matter I changed this to 192.168.1.x to align with my home network so I can see my phone on traffic stats? Also if possible to have remote access to the Asus app...

    WAN Randomly Dropping

    Asus rt-ac86u Merlin 384.4 My WAN connection often randomly dies and I have to power off and on the router. I cannot find anything that sticks out in the logs, and WAN light is fine.

    Modem not rebooting

    Asus RT-ac86u / Merlin (last stable build, .13?) So I sort of solved my intermittent WAN drop-out issues with the reboot scheduler (although I still don't understand why it doesn't just reconnect), but now sometimes the modem doesn't boot up. I get up in the morning and all lights are off so I...

    Script to reboot when WAN detected as down

    Asus RT-86u running Merlin Every now and then - like every day or so the router just loses connectivity. I have been trying in vain to scour logs for a while with no idea why. A reboot seems to fix it. This was then running fine with a daily reboot set to 5am. Except now it dropped out after 9...

    Kernel Errors

    I'm seeing the following in my router log, any ideas? Have disabled AI Protection, which seemed to have calmed it down for a few days but I've started noticing it again. Asus Rt-ac86u / 384.13 Nov 23 06:31:26 Central kernel: x9 : 00000000f65ff8a4 x8 : 00000000000a0764 Nov 23 06:31:26 Central...

    VPN - Capturing Clients in Reporting Data

    I permanently tether my mobile phone (Android Samsung 5G running the paid OpenVPN Client) back via OpenVPN to my home router (RT-86u). How can I capture this in traffic and Diversion statistics? Does it need to sit on the same subnet or something? It defaults to 10.x subnet which doesn't seem to...

    Odd Log Messages (Fault?)

    I still keep seeing these odd messages in my log. Everything seems to be working ok at the moment, but I hope it's not indicative of something wrong with the router. Of are these sort of messages fairly normal? May 5 15:05:42 wsdd2[2007]: error: wsdd-mcast-v4: wsd_send_soap_msg: send May 5...

    VPN - Remote access to UPnP and other servers

    I run MediaMonkey at home and it's set up pretty well. I would like to access it via VPN as I do at home - i.e. sync and UPnP playing. When I'm out and VPN'd in via TUN it doesn't seem to be able to contact the server, whereas when I am home it can - even though I forgot to disable VPN. Will...

    Not connecting to RDP via VPN

    I have a PC I can RDP in to when on the home network but can't when on the OpenVPN connection. It's on the same /24 subnet and I can access the router webpage (via VPN) but no connection to the PC via RDP except when on the network directly (not via VPN). It started when I had to re-setup my...

    Wireless Region - Dropping back from 5g to 2g when setting to "Asia default" to "Australia"

    Has anyone else noticed when setting the region off the default Asia to (in my case "Australia") that the clients then mostly fell back to 2G? Which is congested and not very good at my location. 5G is so much better. I reset the region back to Asia (Default) and sure enough the clients then...

    OpenVPN - Force client to use router DNS + Firewall

    OpenVPN is working ok with the Android paid "OpenVPN Client", however the remote client is not using the router DNS and firewall where I have Diversion and Skynet set up. I would like the mobile client to benefit from this as well. When I click 'advertise DNS to client' the connection stop...

    Using a 4+ TB Drive (6TB)

    I am about to get a 6TB drive. According to the compatibility chart, only up to 4TB EXT4 partitions are supported. So I assume I should format it with 4+2TB EXT4 partitions, and then share that out via Samba so Windows clients can use it like a network share.. Is there anything I should know...

    IDS Monitoring and Alerts

    New to Merlin here. Last night, first night running, I noticed (surprisingly, but not surprisingly) the following in the IDS logs. Is it possible to receive some sort of alert or daily report or something about this sort of thing? I am particularly interested in IDS and what comes up...
