[384.12_Alpha - builds] Testing all variants.

[Xentrk]

Successfully updated from 384.12_alpha1-g4a8cd4ead5 to 384.12_alpha2-g6a46c21cce on RT-AC88U.

 

[bbunge]

RT-AC66U_B1 up to Alpha2. No apparent errors. Tested WS-Discovery with only SMB2 enabled in router. USB shares showed up in Win 10 File Explorer/Network. No SMB1 enabled anywhere in the network!

 

[Marin]

Upgraded to alpha-2 - no issues noted so far.

 

[Treadler]

384.12 alpha2 all good here.

Is the AC86U build fixed, or is it still a mix of different blobs like alpha 1?

From the Changelog-NG.txt file included with the download:

- UPDATED: Merged GPL 384_45717 (except for RT-AX88U)

RT-AC66U_B1 up to Alpha2. No apparent errors. Tested WS-Discovery with only SMB2 enabled in router. USB shares showed up in Win 10 File Explorer/Network. No SMB1 enabled anywhere in the network!

Would like to do this, but I have two wifi cameras that only use SMB1. They work fine, so hard to toss them based on this alone.

 

[maxbraketorque]

Does anyone know whether an ASUS router operating in AP mode running 384_11 or later uses the main router as its NTP server automatically, or do I have to specify the main router IP address in the NTP server dialog?

 

[Swistheater]

Looks like they gave the paper weight an update recently

I thought the 56u was EOL with asus...

From the Changelog-NG.txt file included with the download:

That same line was already in the changelog of the previous release, but RMerlin had to make an exception for the 86U because it did not build properly.

That's why I was (and still am) curious what it's like for this build.

Updated to 384.12_alpha2-g6a46c21cce on RT-AC87u (took some tries/reboots this time)
Changed Wan: Use local caching DNS server as system resolver (default: No) to: Yes (Got ISP DNS servers on dnsleaktest.com , Dont want that and this solved it)
Network Map: shows no connected clients and also all ethernet ports as unplugged
Disable LEDs: Dont turn off all leds, Wireless 2.4 and ethernet port 2 and 4 shows (tried to set no reboot and set yes again reboot no change)
Did Hard reboot and removed power cord and pushed power button 3 times 10 sec apart and cleared browser cache still no change

Edit:
Got this in log

Spoiler: From Syslog

I wonder if is should put my 56u on stock for the fixes or if I should keep mine on 384.6 merlin

Absolutely same here! (after dirty upgrade)
+ In LAN "Manually Assigned IP" no more names or pictures in first column (only - New device), and once it even rebooted upon pressing the LED button!

Seems the new blobs for 87U are faulty, or something went wrong when incorporating them?

Will try now a factory reset (with nvram) to see if it changes something.
If not, back to previous alpha (super stable) until fixed...

RT-AX88U (Router), RT-AC87U (Media bridge), RT-AC86U (Media bridge) all loaded Alpha 2 ok. RT-AC86U would no longer communicate through in 5GHz or 2.4GHz bands to the RT-AX88U (either in Media or Repeater mode). After a restore/initalize to defaults on the RT-AC86U and setup again, all ok!
PS: Still regret buying the RT-AC86U from gearbest.com, everything in default/reset mode is Chinese and fudge thru panels, until you can flip language to English.

Nope factory reset (with nvram) did not help, same things.
I only had Network Map clients at start of configuration, then gone (and ofcourse just the loading circle in Adaptive QoS - Bandwidth Monitor). LED button doesnt work, and still crashes the router and force a reboot, all problems are the same.
Noticed also a bizarre question upon configuration of WiFi (after selecting Channel bandwidth and clicking Apply):

No matter if I put something above or select Cancel (and what are the codes..?).
And the offering of using channels 12, 13 for 2.4GHz is gone; and I had chanel xu, first time seeing "u" always had "l".

384.12_alpha2-g6a46c21cce i seriously broken for the RT-AC87U.
Probably the new blobs fault, and I hope it is easy to fix for RMerlin

P.S.
Went back to alpha1-g4a8cd4ead5, all works again.

Git is the place to look for those types of question.

Oh, I should check "mainline" instead of "master"?
