    AB-Solution 1.07 is out!

    Just installed 1.07 on my RT-AC5300. That was ridiculously easy and now my hotmail + yahoo pages are ad free. I went for the large version! Great work:)

    Speed limitations with router

    There's so many providers out there but I just happened to try PIA and stuck with it. I'm out in the middle east so I can't expect great bandwidth but it works pretty damn well considering its only a few $. For what ever reason I tried eVPN recently and it was slower overall. Even with PIA try...

    Speed limitations with router

    I hear you and I suffer from much reduced bandwidth with OpenVPN. I was getting ~15Mbps when using privateinternetaccess when my full bandwidth was 40Mbps. From my research a lot of this depends on CPU cause of the encryption/decryption and thats where a PC would win over a router. Eg. Linksys...

    Bricked RT-AC5300

    Still bricked I'm afraid. I'm beginning to think it might not be anything I did just happens to be faulty. It ran fine for almost 2 days and last reboot killed it. I was only updating a script for DDNS. I've tried all the suggestions above - thank you. I guess its time to for some ASUS...

    Bricked RT-AC5300

    Thanks for that but I did go thru this article and I had been scouring thru pages of other ppl having problems and everyone did manage to recover their router so I have hope. But I will go thru the article one more time very carefully and I'll take notes and post my steps just in case I'm...

    Bricked RT-AC5300

    You're right it's blinking in recovery. It's only power light after a reboot.

    Bricked RT-AC5300

    Ok last flash thru Chrome didn't work either. I also tried tftp which completed uploading and then waited 10 mins and rebooted. Waiting around 30 mins after reboot each time. Still same issue though. Power light is on, I believe it reboots a couple of times as power light goes off. ping -t...

    Bricked RT-AC5300

    Ok so I went tried flashing thru browser which I did do before. I remember in Chrome I saw progress in the status but in IE no progress. Now in Chrome I see connecting and then timeout. Was checking things with netstat and saw no connection. I've now done a flash from an old Windows 7 machine...

    Bricked RT-AC5300

    Thanks. I seem to be having more success with recovery tool. It appears to upload ok After the upload it says "system restore in progress" for up to 2% then completes to end. Is that normal? With the mini web I can do a nvram reset but I can't upload the firmware. The mini web seems to die out...

    Bricked RT-AC5300

    Well I've had it 2 days and bricked it:eek: I flashed 380.59 as soon as I got it. Did this thru recovery mode cause with web admin it fails due to ASUS locking things down a bit. Configured openvpn which ran great. Enabled jffs also fine. Went out, came home and saw no Wi-Fi !!! Since then I've...
