    Disappointed with Merlin

    The original thread makes for interesting reading, I'd be pretty sure you're going to have the same issues in stock FW though. I get what you're saying and trying to do, Music/audio uses very little bandwidth, I set up a radio station with their online streaming, on a much slower connection...

    Unknown MAC address filling up router log- Amazon Fire TV Cube

    Are you using any kind of bridge or extender on the network? Tuya smart sounds to me like an iot device but it could be a spoofed mac from some device that's been infected. A lot of Chinese devices, using different names/badges are tuya devices, typically using smartphone apps for control with...

    Looking for new router

    Take a look in the merlin section of the Asus forum on here. Support for loads of Asus routers, source code available, though it utilises some closed source code. Supports multiple VPN types in both client and server mode. Very stable, updated regularly. I've been running it for several years on...

    Wicens script

    Tonight I get an email with the following, completely unexpected. Where can I find out what caused the reboot, and was it really a script ran with the option 'reboot'? *** NOTICE ***Your RT-AX88U router @ 192.168.2.1 has rebooted Current router uptime : 0d 0h 0m 55secUptime saved...

    Is this a concern for those of us using Merlin firmware? (CVE-2024-3080)

    Like you, I read this today and from the article date, assumed it was 'new'. As discussed, it's been fixed for some time, but double checking security isn't a bad thing.

    Solved When are passwd and shadow files created?

    Ahh, I remember the days when passwords were all encrypted with the same seed. Editing the password file which was writable for all, to copy your ascii encrypted password to the root user line was simplicity itself. Then you'd login as root/your user password and afterwards put theirs back in...

    Strange WAN connection issue

    Be sure you've using the virgin equipment in modern only mode, turn off residential gateway is the option on the business gear they supply. Also beware of their static IPs if you've selected one, it's not static, it's 'virtual static'. Was impossible for me to configure my firewall the way I...

    asuswrt-merlin.net Website Site Down?

    Amazing how many spiders webs I find inside hardware. I've even seen a laptop where weird little critters must have crept in to keep warm. The most bizarre was a VDU with something literally crawling behind the glass, and no, not a virus - stayed even with the video input disconnected. I don't...

    asuswrt-merlin.net Website Site Down?

    Be good to know the cause of the outage though. Something went down at some point, whether outside of their network or within. I'm just naturally curious as like to look at redundancy methods.

    asuswrt-merlin.net Website Site Down?

    Site was down with intermittent 503 and 500. Back up this afternoon. It's been rock solid for years. Sadly a lot of hosting providers get bought out and turn into ghosting providers, or maybe they're just upgrading hardware.

    EOL ASUS routers affected by TheMoon malware

    Fresh Tomato on my old AC88U, everything works though I did need to fiddle, reverse the port order or something as I recall. Really it was smooth though,

    Cell Phone Calls Using WiFi on an RT-AX86U Don't Go Through (Intermittently)

    I'm a public facing IT tech, I'm inundated with people in the UK having this issue, although it seems cross network, and effecting android to a certain degree, the majority having problems are using iPhones, and the network having the most issues are using EE. Turning off WiFi to test it, but...

    Unable to login to the web ui: You have entered an incorrect username or password 5 times.

    That's a good possibility, maybe disconnect from wan for a little while.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 6 models

    Beta 1 I had issues that caused loss of connectivity to devices that appeared random, changing DNS seemed to cause something to update and got connectivity back for a time. I also noticed some wireless clients when I chose the wireless network, they'd connect, disconnect and immediatley...

    Out of Memory Errors 388.1 / No space left on device [SOLUTIONS]

    Merlin is right about the random mac stuff, absolutely useless and likely to cause problems. Android users can turn it off per connection or overall in developer settings (no need to root). AX88U here and only 1 disconnection that I know of in the past month, but I did have to cold reboot to get...
