    ASUS RT-N66U 3G failover - trying to get it to work - Huawei E3131

    Try logging into the router via ssh and run: ip a That should give you a list of the interfaces. If your modem is recognised it will probably be either usb0 or ppp0: 10: usb0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,10000> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 02:64:02:6e:0b:02 brd...

    Android Phone Tethering (Nexus 5).

    Having installed Merlin, I wanted to try out Android tethering. This works with a Moto G. However, on the Nexus 5, the usb tether button on the phone either won't let me set it, or turns itself off after a couple of seconds, so no connectivity.

    Asus RT-N66U pppoe

    Thanks for the feedback. I am 99.9999% sure it's not a user name password error, as I copy paste them from my ASCII file. Also I did triple check that they were correct:)

    Asus RT-N66U pppoe

    I have just bought one of these. I am connecting to an ADSL line via a Billion modem/router in bridge mode. I have used the Billion for several years with a variety of software routers based on either Ubuntu or Arch and had no problems connecting. However, the Asus won't connect via pppoe and...
