Asuswrt-Merlin 374.39 is out

[seth_space]

@jsmiddleton4 , there were problems with WPA2 keylenght and iphone in the past
So maybe you should try another key.

https://discussions.apple.com/message/13053298#13053298

and lots more of these topics..

 

[bluepoint]

Something is different between the code and how WPA2 is being handled between .39 and 731.32.

Thanks for 731.32.

There are definitely differences in the drivers between those firmwares, .39 uses SDK6 while the 731.32 uses SDK5. Unfortunately, you seems to be the only one having problem with WPA2 encryption in the 5GHz band with your iPhone 5 and maybe your Broadcom draft N client so really it will be difficult for Asus and Merlin to try a fix. Fix that might not be even have to do with the router.

How do I get that variant?

If you are referring to Toastman's? That is tomato firmware.

ok so, nortons filters pants, utter pants. 1 of 3 porn sites were blocked so it has a 33% chance of your kids not watching some girl getting shafted with a fist.

anyway.

nortons filters set in the wan dns work.

nortons filters set in parental dns control do not work, i have rebooted everything and cleared every cache possible.

If it then set yandex it works as expected.

n66u using the em 39 build.

otoh opendns had a better hit rate, 66% so better than nortons and worst than yandex.

I think it was the ipv6 into 4 tunnel to blame!

 

[MarkyPancake]

I've been experiencing great wireless performance with the EM build, but I just noticed copying a file wirelessly on the LAN was very slow.

Yes, as mentionned, 374.39 clients are currently bypassing the filtering servers if there's an IPv6 connection set up as the clients will then bypass the firewall rules by going through the IPv6 tunnel.

This has been partially resolved for the next release.

Don't know if it will help but even using both opendns ipv6 and leaving the 3rd entry empty caused issues with the dns not working at all, it it still said no open dns on http://www.opendns.com/welcome/

Sometimes in the log when downloading torrents. Use "Transmission Remote GUI" What does this mean? And how to fix it? AC68U
Thanks

Just thought I would post some throughput results from my Xbox One using 374.39_0-em.

I connected my X1 to the 2.4 GHz network and ran its test and got around 14 Mb down and 2.4 up, which is similar to the PS4 on the same network (Sony decided to be cheap and install an old wireless chip and not make it 5 GHz compatible). I then connected to the 5 GHz network and ran the test again and got around 60 Mb down and 3 up. We're on a 60 down and 3 up service.

You might wanna type that as Mb(Megabit) and not MB(MegaByte). I doubt you have 60MBps(480Mbps) line.

Guys how are you?

Let me ask you something

I'm usimg here the AC68U

Merlin said that this FW can increase the MTU size to 1500 if the ISP support that

If my ISP support what difference i'll notice changing the MTU size? Worth a try? Is that a big implement?

Waiting some advices

Thanks

WPS Reset AC68U Settings

Hello guys has anyone experienced your settings on your router being reset by using WPS. I lost my network name, kid timeout mode, and wireless client filter. I have never used wps but wife wanting to use an wireless printer and I am doing home maintenance and backing up PCs so decided to use wps. If this is reoccurring I will just start backing up my wireless routers when I do a home PC backup.

This is only for PPPoE, and provided your ISP properly implements the RFC that allows "oversized" packets. So far I think very few ISPs support that.

I wouldn't expect a big difference.

If you use the WPS reset function on the webui, then that's normal - what it does is reset all the wireless settings.

A small suggestion: can you put clickable download links in your forum signature? This way one doesn't have to look for them outside the new release announcement.

I can't. Tim doesn't allow clickable URLs in signatures as spammers were abusing this in the past, so I had to remove my own clickable links.

Hello all!

I am using Merlins builds for a long time on my RT-N66U and had no problems. With latest upgrade to .39 something funny started to happen. WiFi devices connected to 5Ghz, got IP and everything but were unable to ping even the router itself (BUT were able to ping and communicate with other wireless devices!).

I then decided to go to latest _em release and did reflash and factory reset. New setup of everything and voila...same problem!

Yesterday I connected brand new Mac mini to the 5Ghz network (so for sure no old config or anything on machine) and again I could connect to it from other wifi stations, but Mac mini itself was not able to even ping the router.

After SSH-ing to the router and pinging the Mac Mini from it connection immediately started to work in both directions.

Same issue happens with iPhone 5 client, MacBook Pro etc.....it does help if I reset the router.

Since devices do get IP and everything over DHCP it seems as there would be a problem with ARP of the router toward client or something....

Since this is now persistent from .39 release and now to _em and after even factory reset (via web menu) any other suggestions? Reflash again?
