    Wifi 6, mesh, and cameras

    Thanks for the reply. I have at least 14 WiFi devices, more if you count guests, and directly wired devices. PC's, laptops, phones, tablets, printers, ring, etc. My home is close to 3000 square ft, and 2 floors. The main AP has great line of site access to most of the house. More than 3/4 has...

    Wifi 6, mesh, and cameras

    PROBLEM: 1) My current setup works, but cannot be upgraded to latest firmware and remain stable (see below). 2) wifi is weaker in the bedrooms on the opposite end of the house, and that may be more significant soon with needs for more PCs in those poor signal rooms (-70+ dbm, and -80+ if...

    AC3200 and 2.4Ghz issues

    I started experiencing this same issue after upgrading to 384.6 from 384.3, except that I may have some other issues as well. my setup: router = pfsense 2.4.4 p1 AP = RT-AC3200 (Rev 0 v71) 384.6 (worked fine on 384.3) - Tri band / 2.4(printer, ring, and old PCs), 5Ghz-1 (hidden+isolated, for me...

    Issues with 384.8_2 - RT-AC68R in bridge mode - part 2 - disconnect from main router

    I have been tracking this disconnect issue since March and it's still not fixed. I had hope that the DNS and routing fixes in 384.8 would fix this, but it has not. I have even tried the LTS E firmware, but was told that the issue may be with the AiMesh Asus wireless drivers, and that firmware...

    Issues with 384.6 - RT-AC68R in bridge mode

    That may be correct, but I did hold for about 10 full seconds. The lights did not flash or reset until after I released the button. It seemed to reboot after that so I thought I did it correctly. It was reset enough to make me go through the manual setup again. I have set the AP to fixed 36...

    Issues with 384.6 - RT-AC68R in bridge mode

    My AP (RT-AC3200) currently has that 5ghz connection (5GHZ-1) on Auto channel (currently 36), and operating on 80mhz. I may have made a mistake when flashing. I used the recovery mode GUI to flash the firmware (hold reset button 10 seconds after power on). After successful flash, I reset...

    Issues with 384.6 - RT-AC68R in bridge mode

    The LTS fork disconnected twice in a different way. I just flashed back to 380.70. This is extremely frustrating. I may abandon ASUS as a result. I have lost all confidence in the product line.

    Issues with 384.6 - RT-AC68R in bridge mode

    I have just flashed the Merlin LTS fork onto the bridge (RT-AC68U_374.43_33E7j9527), and so far it is performing well. I am hoping Merlin will also maintain a LTS on 380.X. I need stability and security updates over new features. The forked version appears to be the only option out there that...

    Issues with 384.6 - RT-AC68R in bridge mode

    just for background info, I had this similar issue earlier this year with all of the early 384.x builds. I have been unable to get the Bridge mode stable past 380.X. What is happening so far on 384.6 is being disconnected from the internet while being wired into the bridge. This happens...

    [Beta 384/NG] Asuswrt-merlin 384.4 Beta is now available

    I had some pretty major problems with the RT-AC68U bridge mode on 384.3. Has anyone tried bridge mode yet on 384.4 beta 3?

    OpenVPN on iOS: which cipher?

    I wish GCM support was more wide spread. The reason I want to switch to GCM is because there is a flaw in the way OpenVPN for iOS handles CBC. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-0488

    OpenVPN on iOS: which cipher?

    Does GCM work on iOS OpenVPN Connect 1.2.9? I can’t seem to get either 128 or 256 to work.

    ASUS 384.3 bug? AC3200 & RT68U

    I found this recently. It's really good info: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/faq-nvram-and-factory-default-reset.22822/

    ASUS 384.3 bug? AC3200 & RT68U

    The release notes mention that ONLY the RT-AC3200 had its NVRAM size increased, and could not be rolled back. The really weird part of all of this is that I own a RT-AC3200 as my main router (384.3), and its running more stable than it ever has (see below). I didn't dig too deep, but the router...

    ASUS 384.3 bug? AC3200 & RT68U

    This is not exactly related to the speed issue, but its related to the unstable behavior I experienced: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rt-68u-firmware-version-3-0-0-4-384-20287.44348/ It basically says that bridge more and repeater modes are broken for now. I'm just going to wait for a fix. I...

    [Release 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.3 is now available

    I have found plenty of info on other threads on this forum and others reporting that there is an issue with the ac68u 384 firmware (ASUS and Merlin) affecting media bridge mode, and repeater mode. The symptoms match my own, so there isn’t a firmware update that will work for me at this time. I’m...

    ASUS 384.3 bug? AC3200 & RT68U

    I had that extreme speed issue, but only after connecting through a VPN client from my PC through the ac68u bridge. Speed without VPN was 120Mbps, with it ON with wifi(through the main router AC3200) a respectable 60Mbps, and WIRED through the AC68U bridge with VPN ON I get only .3-1Mbps. That...

    [Release 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.3 is now available

    No, I am still on v75, but I plan to upgrade tonight. PIA support says I may have a firewall issue, but up to now has had no effect. I should be able to figure that part out tonight, but I don't think it will have any effect. Due to the NVRAM corruption issue, I am now tempted to flash back to...
