    Some wireless devices are unreachable from clients but are reachable from the router itself

    It may help if you include the firmware running on the router. Are the problematic devices on the Guest Network? Are you using VPN? Have you assigned manual IP addresses for the problematic WiFi devices? Does rebooting help? What other troubleshooting steps have you tried? If you haven't done...

    Please add Asuswrt-merlin to GT-BE98 (Non-pro) version

    See the read me first link I provided. It explains the process RMerlin generally uses to determine support for a router. The GT-BE98 likely won't be supported by RMerlin. You'll have to use the GNuton fork...

    To add to this; if using MAC Filter, make sure to disable any feature on the WiFi client that randomizes or uses alternate MAC addresses for privacy/security reasons.

    Malfunctioning AX86U Pro? WiFi Radio Fail, Trouble Ejecting/Mounting Entware USB

    Have you checked the USB storage device that was attached to the router for errors? What kind of storage device is it? The 3004.388.6_2 is from 26-Feb-2024 so its rather old. Have you considered updating it to the latest Asus-Merlin? Did you by chance have any of the AiCloud 2.0 features (Cloud...

    Malware damaging ASUS routers?

    Yes, really is quite baffling as to why Asus hasn't pushed out an update for it yet. Many if not most other Asus routers, including many EoL models, have gotten firmware updates over the past week or two. Wonder if there is something specific to that router that is causing the delay. For now one...

    Devices Connect to Wi-Fi but No Internet

    Post a screen shot of the rules along with the IP addresses (or range) of the WiFi devices that are at issue so others can review to see if there is a problem with your VPN Director rules. Redact any sensitive information if needed.

    Devices Connect to Wi-Fi but No Internet

    Because you are using VPN and the issue (if I understand what you posted correctly) appears to happen when a VPN client is enabled; have you created the proper routing rules for the WiFi clients under VPN Director?

    Solved RT-AX86U dead WiFi asking for country code?

    One option while you wait for Asus to release updated RT-AX86U firmware is to run the Asus-Merlin firmware. The latest Asus-Merlin 3004.x firmware has a security issue fix for AiCloud. If nothing else just make sure to disable any and all AiCloud 2.0 options in the router GUI...

    Asus Routers Extension Proper Set-up Using Ethernet Cable

    For an Asus router, likely have to set it up in "Repeater mode", or possibly "media bridge" mode depending on usage/needs, if not using AiMesh or not using wired Ethernet AP mode. Basic general Asus Support directions: https://www.asus.com/support/faq/1036082/...

    RT-AX86U_PRO_3004_388.8_4 firmware MD5 checksum mismatch

    @inakaya, FYI there is a specific subforum for Asus-Merlin firmware discussion and issues: https://www.snbforums.com/forums/asuswrt-merlin.42/ The SHA-256 hash checks out fine (matches) for me.

    Devices Connect to Wi-Fi but No Internet

    It may help if you list the specific firmware you are running on each of the devices. Which devices are the WiFi clients connecting to? Does the issue present itself if you disable the Wireguard and OpenVPN connections? Are you using Guest Network WiFi? (There is a known issue with Guest Network...

    Malware damaging ASUS routers?

    @Jbennett360, here is how RMerlin explains ASD: It is running all the time. If it was able to be disabled then malware would target it and disable it in order to infect the router. The ASD service scans the router for malware. Edit to add: And RMerlin also explains in another discussion that...

    Not sure if you answered the question, but have the IP addresses at issue been removed from the Advanced Settings > LAN > DHCP Server > Manually Assigned IP addresses in the DHCP scope section and the router along with client network devices rebooted? Are you running any other addon scripts?
