The only announced additions at this time are the RT-BE86U and RT-BE88U.
Thanks for reminding and I understand that.
Hope that one day we will see the magic for BQ16 Pro and BQ16 with merlin firmware.
First post, second paragraph.
Looking forward to this update, but on the BE98 non pro version. I live in Japan, and this router with the latest official firmware is not compatible with my Internet provider. Even ASUS' latest update tried to fix my issue (OCNVC), but it did not work. Your firmware is my last recourse. May I ask, does your firmware support IPoE (IP4 over IP6) and DHCPv6-PD? According to my internet service provider, I need a router compatible with that, and even the cheapest POS wireless router here is compatible... all except ASUS. I want to cry.
WAN support is unchanged from the stock firmware, as I have no way of testing and maintaining exotic connection methods that are only used by very specific ISPs.
Ok but it dont say if you received source code for GT-BE98 Pro Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_37031?
I see. I want to try your firmware anyway, so I will look forward to it, and thank you very much for your work. By the way, this exotic connection method is, like I said, supported by every single manufacturer in Japan, and I know that even TP-Link works. It is just IPoE for 10G connections. I suspect that it has to be some setting in the original firmware, like firewall or so, which is the issue. If I had access to a log, it would be easier to troubleshoot, but I cannot do that with the official firmware, AFAIK.
Nothing has changed in the last week since I posted that I hadn't received any GPL update in months. and there is no ETA as to when I will receive updated GPL code either.
I recommend contacting Asus about it. I know they already support some of the more esoteric implementations like MAP-E, so they would be your best chance to have it eventually implemented (or debugged).I see.

Anyway, once your firmware is available, and if I figure out the issue, I will share here to see if this helps anyone
Thank you for the suggestion. I have a case open with them, and they issues ASUS GT-BE98 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36855 to try to solve my issue, but it is still no change, so while I wait I thought to try out other options. This router is almost double the price in Japan than anywhere else, so it is painful to have it sit it around with no solution in view. Like I said, at least an error log would help with troubleshooting.
). Approx. 50 odd clients in this household, everything has run perfectly over the last seven days (yippee). Awesome. Finally made the transition off WRT and to Merlin firmware recently. I feel incredibly stupid for not doing it sooner.
