    Repeater antenna question

    My base router is an Asus AC87U, and I'm using an AC68U as a repeater. Works pretty well; the AC68U reports "Link rate: 234 Mbps, RSSI: -58 dBm" and we get up to 60 mbps (of our 200mbps) through it. The AC87U is in the guest house/office, with just 1 ethernet client, and the AC68U is in the...

    OCed 68u overheating - looking to restore original

    I have a couple of RT-AC68Us (orig T-Mo CellSpots) which are running Merlin 384.13. Couple of months ago I OC'ed them to 1000,800. I now find that the temps are VERY high (2.4 GHz: 54°C; 5 GHz: 57°C; CPU: 90°C) even with very little load. The clock speeds were 800,666. I am trying to "down...

    AC66U_B1, 384.12, Webinterface problems

    Hi all, 384.12 worked fine on my AC66U_B1 in the beginning but I tried to do some changes in QoS and the Webinterface became severely unaccessable. Giving it a long time and reloading the main page serveral times it happen to start working so I reflashed 384.12 but the problem stayed. So I...

    AC66U-B1 vs AC68U - thermal issues?

    Seems like the AC66U-B1 and AC68U are essentially the same hardware? Or at least close enough for my needs, and pretty much indistinguishable if they're running Merlin. Anything beyond 30-40Mb/s is "fast enough" for me. Are there any concerns about non-removable antennas on the AC66U-B1? Are...

    Upgrade from RT-N66U - Need traffic monitoring

    I've got an RT-N66U that I'm happy with, running Merlin 380.70. What it lacks is useful traffic monitoring and stats. Ideally, I want to be able to see what clients connect to what servers/web-sites, and when they're connecting. Bonus if I can store that data on a USB-drive, so it's persistent...

    AC68U super slow GUI on wifi

    A lightning storm burned the WAN port on my AC68U. I used the Dual WAN to use LAN1 as WAN. I noticed, however, that recently the web gui is virtually unusable over wifi. The login page loads instantaneously, but putting the credentials ends up in a white page with the browser "Transferring data...

    OpenVPN CPU question

    I have a 50/50 connection, when I use OpenVPN, that changes from 50/50 -> 20/50 I traced the problem to the CPU. For some reason, when it downloads, it only utilizes half of 1 core (I know OpenVPN is an inherently single-cored process). For upload, it uses all the core - which btw results in...

    I'm running Merlin 384.11 on my AC68U. I'm trying to find a faster method of switching DNSfilters for a particular device and wonder if it's possible to do so via script or otherwise. It's mainly a speed thing - it's a little effortful navigating and logging into the router admin site...
