    [SOLVED] How to access NVRAM?

    Hello, I planing to reset my AC68U. In the NVRAM FAQ there is a nice tutorial. Also how to perform a text based backup. My problem is. I can't run 'nvram'. The command is not found. Did I missed something? Do I have to install it? thanks!

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    Thanks! Interesting indeed. The faster CPU maybe does make a difference. I will probably reset my router on the weekend and try some OC (if possible)

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    Glad to hear that it is possible with big WD drives! I will try a different hard drive. I'm using Win8.1. But the observed data rates are also observable with FTP transfers with filezilla. Maybe you could check that as well? my computer is connected by Ethernet cable. The 2.4 Wi-Fi is not used...

    maybe. The drive now shows up. The transfer speeds are still max 25-29Mb/s ... :( But the other issue is still there. I rebooted the router. Now I can't change the share permissions anymore. It was possible to do so until the reboot. o_O

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    That explains some of the problems and why it worked with MiniTool Partition Wizard. Too bad fdisk doesn't give any hint on that limitation or any error messages. To format a 4TB drive with ext3/4 takes forever. I really hope it will become better with an extended partition, like with my old...

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    Alright. I just used 'o' Seams like it is the only way to clear the partition table. Now I will try an extended partition with one logic one inside. Let's hope the best...

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    No hub. USB 3.0 drive connected to USB3 port. USB 2.0 drive connected to USB2 port. I can't delete the existing partition on the drive. I just can' be deleted. Any ideas? I suspect fdisk is not working correctly with 4TB drives (GPT).

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    'o' just deletes the partition table by overwriting it with an empty one. Or did I missed something? It is a hard drive not a thumb drive. It is a 4TB drive. What should be used? MBR or GPT? What partition type? primary? extended? The drive shows up. But I can't create folder within the Web UI...

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    I removed the partitions. I used 'o' (fdisk) to create a new empty DOS partition table. I created a new primary partition. Assigned the complete size of the drive. I formated with mkfs.ext4. Disk mounts. BUT I can't create shareable folders in the UI. The radio buttons are missing. I just see...

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    Damn. I mixed up the drives. sda is the old USB2 drive. I attached the USB3 drive additionally today. The ouput for the new drive is: Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/sdb: 976746240 sectors, 3725G Logical sector size: 4096 Disk identifier (GUID): e3c244c0-1e47-44d8-8861-9810a2532b7b Partition...

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    My old 1TB USB2.0 drive is faster (writing) then the new USB3.0 one. The CPU load is slightly lower... how is that possible? Is this a bug? I'm running the latest merlin build 380.63_2 for the ac68u. Just for comparision I tried to connect my Sandisk USB3 Extreme 64GB thumb drive. Seams like...

    RT-AC68U, samba, speed & CPU usage

    I just plugged in a USB3 drive to my AC68U and got similar speeds like you. Did you found any solution? 20-25Mb/s is far from the 50-60Mb/s some users reported. Especially the 100% CPU load is strange. It doesn't matter if I copy via SMB, FTP or just format the drive from console... The web...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.55 is now available

    Updated to version 378.55. Now I can't paste my long password into this new login form. Which javascript do I have to block, in order to be able to paste it? Do I really have to choose a short password? Improved security feature? Has anybody a solution to this? Big Thanks! -- Edit: Figured...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 376.49 is out

    I really tried to find the "posted fix". Where do I can find it? Any description? :confused: Right now I am using 376.48_1 on a AC68U. So I will wait with an upgrade..

    Samba speed limited with QoS enabled

    In the meantime I've disabled QOS entirely. Samba write/read speed is now 50Mb/s. I'm very new to the AC68U and I must admit that I'm a little bit frustrated with this Asus product. Before I've bought it, I waited till Asus added the long promised DFS support, just to find out, that the...

    Samba speed limited with QoS enabled

    In my case I could find the following configuration in /etc/smb.con ... bind interfaces only = yes interfaces = br0 ... Is br0 enough? Is the loopback necessary? So maybe the samba server doesn't bind to the interface, even though the configuration is correct? thanks
