    SAMBA operations are very slow

    Thanks for the tip - NFS works great! Note that you'll need to be on Win 7 Professional or Ultimate (and for Win 8 you'll need to be on Enterprise or Server). But yeah, browsing the NFS share in Windows was super-fast. Transfer speed improved too, I'm getting 7-8MB/s to the flash drive. Ironic...

    SAMBA operations are very slow

    Thanks! Looks like the issue is with Windows 8. :( Still haven't managed to fix it, but browsing the shares in Linux seems to work just fine.

    SAMBA operations are very slow

    Hi all, I have the ASUS RT-AC66U with the latest Merlin beta. My desktop has an ASUS AC66 PCIe adapter running Windows 8 x64 Enterprise Edition, with updated drivers and no major background tasks (no AV or firewall etc). I'm connected at full signal strength on 5Ghz and the speed varies...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.354.28 Beta 1

    We're facing the disconnection issue again - this time its my laptop with kernel 3.8.5-1 and using Atheros AR9285 (ath9k). The laptop is located fairly close to the router (about 10 meters) and there are no metallic obstructions in the line-of-sight. It's the same symptoms that I experienced...

    How to use dual-band mode?

    Ah okay, thanks for the clarification; but how can I configure 802.11ac so that I can at least get 1300Mbps? The router only has options for Auto / Legacy / N.. and I don't see an "AC" option anywhere.

    How to use dual-band mode?

    Hi all, I just bought an ASUS PCE-AC66 PCIe card to go along with my AC66U router. Now the question is, how do I go about configuring it to connect using dual-band mode, so that I can get the full advertised 1750Mbps? At the moment, the ASUS utility shows my network as two separate...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.354.28 Beta 1

    Disconnection issues continue on AC66U Updated to the new firmware, but one of our machines is still facing the disconnection issue. I have no idea why none of our other devices are experiencing this. So far, we have tried all of the following but to no avail: - Changed the WiFi adapter...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.354.27 Beta 1

    Not sure if this is related to the 5GHz issue, but in our household, nearly all of us were experiencing regular disconnection issues on 2.4GHz b/g/n. (b/g protection mode was on, Xbox mode was on) When this issue would occur, nearly all our devices (about 11 of them on different platforms)...

    Bandwidth monitoring options

    Update: I've found bandwidthd being mentioned on a few sites, but it doesn't look like its available anymore - tried both on optware and entware, and I get no search results. # opkg install bandwidthd Unknown package 'bandwidthd'. Collected errors: * opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package...

    Bandwidth monitoring options

    Hi all, I just purchased an AC66U and loaded the latest Asuswrt-Merin beta onto it, but was a bit disappointed at the lack of better bandwidth controls. The main features I'm looking for are: - Per-user bandwidth usage (in a custom date range or a definable monthly cycle) - Soft...
