forgive me, I am new to this forum joining recently having spent many hours researching routers, firmware and capabilities and observing posts. I'm interesting in flashing this firmware into my AC56U.

I am a systems engineer so ok with the principles, just need to know whether there is any special requirement (power on/off, pre-flash, post-flash) procedure for this firmware and I just use the normal flash procedure with the downloaded image? I cannot see anything specific to this, within this thread or in a linked/related thread?

thanks in advance

EDIT: shirte. sorry. : just found this http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/forums/showthread.php?p=61974
 
You have to use Asus printer utility not to add printer from windows.
I've reebooted computer and printer, used printer utility and still getting this error.

Unzipped printer file and ran as Administrator. Still can't find printer.

Printer is listed on the main page.

Was just about to flash this firmware when I noticed a discrepancy in the md5 sums... could it be MediaFire? actual sum is a1a6be7367d0eded0a2b897f192ac038 vs 4c2898b36e2f65c1f18261f326390aa9 for RT-AC66U_3.0.0.4_374.41_beta1.trx which was provided by RMerlin.

I downloaded the file again with the same result.

Hi All!

I've managed to run Asus RT-AC68U firmware on Linksys EA6900 by flashing custom Asus bootloader (CFE v1.0.1.6).
Now I really happy with Asuswrt-Merlin 374.41 Beta 1 firmware on EA6900. Everything works without any issues.

Thank You, Merlin, for best firmware!

Can you write some more details about it? I would like to have a test.

Thank you!

Seems to be limited to HUAWEI-Modems: My Huawei E372 (DC-HSPA+ up to 42Mbps) is recognized, but cannot be connected ("Connect script failed"). Using my ZTE MF652 everything runs as it should...

Do you have an idea how to modify the connection script to manage the E372 connecting on the base of 374_40 Merlin build (with this one the E372 ran okay)?

Ciao

Nope

ASUS changed the connection script, /rom/etc/ppp/3g/Generic_conn.scr,

Both scripts within this pastebin, (beta1 row 131)
http://paste.ubuntu.com/7256272/

I have no idea how become root with this read-only file system for testing....

Quite a pity - no chance for me to keep using this version then until a workaround is found as I' m reliant upon this Huawei E372...

Yes.. have the same problem as mr @plun.
its funny but dont the asus people try out driver before they implemate and release it?
hope some one can fixit soon

thanks mr Merlin for your effort to fix what the Asus people dont fix so any ideas whats wrong in the lines maybe?
 
A little thing....but when I did a reboot from the GUI tab at the top, I no longer had the percentage count up to completion displayed....just a blank screen.

Second item.....I want my USB share to be open with no password.....how do I dismiss the yellow exclamation point from always being active?

Probably on the Minidlna site. Asus upgraded from 1.1.1 to 1.1.2.

I can confirm, that after MANY hours of testing, that the problem I was having is related to the beta. I have reverted to 374.40 and now have the full windows and normal windows display.

Please see http://forums.smallnetbuilder.com/showthread.php?t=16788 for more details. I assume that the issue was related to the upgrade to the latest miniDLNA. Too big a loss of functionality for me.

Happy to supply any info and run any tests.

I got this message in Time Machine

The version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported. Please contact your system administrator to resolve the problem.
 
So far working well on AC-66U , no dropping connection , getting very good connection rate and transfer rates on Intel 6200 , 5300 , Dlink DAP 1500 , Edimax 7882 AC and linksys wrtusb 600 . Don't notice any difference on AC clients if Beamforming is enabled or not .
Like the setting for disconnecting GUI after x amount of time .
Thank Merlin .

Could be a browser cacheing issue, or a timing issue. I had it happen only once to me, every other times it's been fine.

I don't think you can. I haven't really played much with this notification code however, Asus is still refining it between firmware releases from what I saw.
 
Thanks again Merlin for your hard work.

Haven't upgraded out of alpha 4 yet on my 68U, since it's running so darn smooth. I still see that people report the oddity of the 5GHz light blink on this BETA update, which is happening on the alpha 4 FW and I also have the clients not refreshing on Network Map, is that a known issue?:confused:

I just wanted to let you know, since you requested feedback. Otherwise, this firmware seems to be working fine. I can't find any other issues.

Thanks for everything you do!!!

I don't know, personally I have never paid any attention to the flashing pattern of it. I do know that the 5G led is handled differently by the firmware than the 2.4G led, but that's about it. So, I can't say if it's normal or not.
