    RT-AC87U running hot.

    I wasn't aware this was discussed previously. How will passive cooling void the router warranty? Router is only sitting on a platform with a fan, and USB current is far less than an external drive current demand. Nothing has been altered or opened on the router?

    RT-AC87U running hot.

    New RT-AC87U with Merlin 380.64_2 was running hotter then I would like, even though 87c (188F) is within normal operating temperature. I figure cooler temps will prolong life of the components. I had a laptop cooling pad but it draws a 550 ma from the USB 2.o port, which is higher than I like...

    Well, I did exactly as you said and everything is working now. I learned something new today, I never realized the DDNS was tied to the MAC address. Thanks for the information.

    RT-AC87U not updating DDNS IP address

    Installed Merlin 380.64.2 on a new RT-AC87U and can't get the DDNS (asuscomm) to update IP address. Merlin shows that the DDNS is registered. Yet, when I ping or query (nslookup) xxxxx.asuscomm.com I get a different IP address of xx.xxx.xxx.30 and my actual WAN address is xx.xxx.xxx.45. I can...
