    EoL RT-AC86U replacement

    I was looking at a replacement for RT-AC86U. Originally the router was used in a house but now it is a small apartment. I initially was thinking of the RT-AX86U Pro but wondering if that router will be EoL next. Noticed there was also the ASUS AX3000 WiFi 6 Router (RT-AX57). I am not using many...

    Dropp lease for IP

    I had some time to do further testing. I changed the reserved IP address for one of these devices and applied the settings which got this in the logs: May 20 11:12:04 rc_service: httpd 1401:notify_rc restart_dnsmasq May 20 11:12:05 dnsmasq-dhcp[5748]: not giving name RaspPi4_2GB to the DHCP...

    Dropp lease for IP

    The devices are Raspberry PI devices. Wired connection only. Yes rebooting the router forces the reservation address to take effect but thought there must be a way to not cause everyone else connected to the router to lose their network connections

    Dropp lease for IP

    I have a device it has gotten assigned an IP address via the DHCP. I have hard coded an IP address for that device via its MACID in the Merlin firmware. Powering off the device letting it sit for several minutes results in it still having the DHCP address assigned to it rather than the hard...

    Dropp lease for IP

    Is there still no way of dropping a lease for a DHCP assigned IP address so that that fixed IP address configured via MACID can be assigned for that particular device?

    Lease expiration not being enforced?

    Six days ago I had an iMac attached to a wired connection for 2 days. It has since been removed. Last night I logged into my Asus AC-86U w 386_2_6 firmware and noticed that an Apple Device was connected to a wired connection here with an Automatic IP. Since I only have 3 Apple devices all of...

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    ok think the drive is in fact FAT32. I guess it is time to eject the flash drive backup the files format it as NTFS and copy the data back over. This power cycling was intentional since I could not get the radios to active properly.

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    I was using a folder on the USB flash drive called "Asus Router Traffic" and the Syslogs showed "Problem loading /mnt/sda1/Asus Router Traffic/tomato_rstats_04922680f030.gz. Still trying..." So I ejected the drive copied the gz file to the root of the USB flash drive and changed the location...

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    Is there a problem with traffic stats when using USB and powering off the router with the power button after the Reboot via UI did not fix an issue? The reason is that I enabled the radios in this router today and doing a reboot via the UI did not enable the radios even after I went into the...

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    Ok switched over from NVRAM to USB again and waited a couple of hours and did a reboot via the UI and this time the traffic chart showed the history like it should rather than a blank graph w no Y axis lines like it did before. Using a USB2 flash drive but that should be fine for the amount of...

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    That is exactly what I had. Doing a Reboot via the menu UI button or a power cycle resulted in the blanking of the screen on the Traffic Monitor page and no stats showing up after the reboot or power up completed. I had to do a reset of the data files every time on the USB flash drive in order...

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    Ok if the reboot option does the same thing then the /jffs/scripts/services-stop is probably not going to help. Am I the only one storing these stats on USB and having this inability to display the prior collected stats after a power cycle or reboot via the GUI reboot button? Is it possible to...

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    Is that services-stop issued via a telnet session? I am more familiar with dd-wrt which has a command area in the firmware where one can issue commands. I could not find any such area in Merlin to do that.

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    All I know is that if the router is powered off the stats have to be reset via Create or reset data files: Enable if using a new location Otherwise, the graph is not displayed properly on an Asus AC-86u w current firmware. I see the screen completely go blank for a second or to and no bar...

    Proper reboot method when using Traffic Monitor

    If one is using the Traffic Monitor to save stats to a USB flash drive in the router what is the proper shutdown procedure if one has to reboot the router? Does one simply click on the USB symbol in the UI to safely close dow the USB flash drive then power cycle the router? I am asking because I...

This was even though I had used the Apply button and the MACID and ID addresses showed up. Anyways entering the information using the pen icon and + sign followed...

    Trying to assign manually assigned IPs and entering a hostname in the table. However when I apply the changes none of the hostnames stick. The hostnames are all blank. Is this a known issue?
