New Around Here
Hi,
I have just upgraded my router from a RT-AC66U to a RT-AC68U.
I was very happy with the RT-AC66U but managed to sell it for the price of my new 68U so thought I was making a good deal...
I had the latest Merlin FW working on it, so tried the replicate to set up by installing the latest Merlin now.
When I have installed Merlin (RT-AC68U_3.0.0.4_374.39_0 and 2 previous versions), I cannot connect to my wireless network anymore, though I can see it. On all my devices (Win7 64b, Mac, Android) I get authentication errors which I can't correct.
Even wired into the router, logging into the GUI takes forever, it only normally works (wired) once I unplug the ethernet cable of my Synology DS414 (plugged in to the router) (DSM 4.3-3827). This obviously makes me think there is some incompatibility.
Everything works fine now (on ASUS firmware) but I'd like to have the Merlin FW in order to benefit from the VPN setup.
I had no issues whatsover with my RT-AC66U in the same set up.
I have already returned (and exchanged) my RT-AC68U as I had more issues (dropping connection, which are now resolved).
My Synology DS414 is quite a standard set-up (no VPN on it, no DHCP on the server,...)
All my devices are assigned through DHCP on the Asus.
Am I missing anything?
Is there other info needed?
Thanks,
Pierre
