I enable the setting “Disable Asusnat tunnel” to eliminate this daemon. Double-negative warning: enable the setting to disable the daemon.
do we know what;s the use of the "asusnat tunnel"?I enable the setting “Disable Asusnat tunnel” to eliminate this daemon. Double-negative warning: enable the setting to disable the daemon.
thx
EDIT: found this:
"Only enable Asusnat tunnel if you use IFTTT or Alexa or ASUS application on cell phones."
"ASUS NAT tunnel make it possible to access router in the wan side of router, even under NAT."
"Some features use it, such as ASUS router APP."

No, which is why I disable it.

I'm almost ashamed to tell this on myself, but I didn't think I hit the "apply" button at the bottom when I selected to format the jffs on next boot. I guess because the check change got a couple of router responses it was good to go. Wrong. I can't believe I made such a rookie mistake. Wait a minute, I am a rookie. Regardless, that was a very stoopid one.
Everything seems to back up or on the way to recovery now, and I am sure glad. Got a new usb drive out of it.
Thanks for the upgrade, Merlin and associates, and Thanks for the help, Everybody!
Rest of you rookies, don't forget to hit that apply button!

Well I seemed to have run in to bad luck upgrading my ac86u to .19 today. After rebooting I can't even log into the webgui, as it keeps acting weird with invalid certs and improperly loading pages... now I even have an improperly loaded captcha keeping me out. I can ssh in still, but none of my scripts are working. I took a backup of jffs before upgrading.
How do I procede from here to fix this partially bricked 86u?
Thanks,
Kevin
[edit: I tried removing the usb drive and rebooting... still not working. Please help... kids distance learning means we are really depending on this damn thing to work well.]

Eric, I just wanted to confirm regarding low space warning on JFFS, did you manage to fix it so it display different warning when unmounted. I am still getting low space warning when it is unmounted. I started by upgrading to 384.19 and then factory reset, after initial configuration I was getting message that it is low on space, instead of different message.
Also my system log is getting bombarded by these, looks like debugging, log level is set to notice and default log level is also notice.

You best course of action would be factory reset, especially because you are not able to access GUI. I know not the most convenient method out there but it will get you going.
ASUS router Hard Factory Reset - Method 2
1. Turn the router off.
2. Press and hold the "WPS" button and turn the router on.
3. Power light is on (keep holding the WPS button).
4. Release the WPS button after the power light is off.
5. Reboot your router by manually pressing the power button.
6. Configure your router from scratch.

Dirty update means that you don't reset the router settings after firmware update and start from scratch, but instead install the new firmware "on top of the current fw" and leave it that way without resetting. Normally that works nicely. But if you happen to have some weird problems after updating you could restore the router to its factory defaults.
You can read detailed instructions of how to dirty update from this message:
[Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.17 (and 384.13_8) are now available
Dirty upgrade from 384.16 to .17 and all settings stayed, including DHCP reservations, WLAN channel settings, etc. No issues from my standpoint.

I've just had too many issues with my AC86U today on 386.19 even after several factory resets and manual reconfigures. Just went back to Asus 384.81992. Happy router...happy wife!
I no
I am having the same issue, along with the red light being on the RT-AX88U. I had to do factor reset and ran into many issues attempting to re-establish my mesh to my RT-AX58U (Wired). When you are applying the patch on the AX88U should you format the JFFS during the reboot ? I have not tried this because happy wife happy life rule applied, went back to 384.18 no issues.

As I figured the issue I noted earlier was easily resolved, picked up a 3.0 USB reverted back to 3.0 mode and my VPN now starts normally on reboots.
Thanks again Rmerlin for your great work.

Did that, after a half hour of frustration learning the new default of ...168.50.1, now I'm at a proper login page that seems to be working... but it's not taking any user/password?!
I've tried admin/admin, administrator/administrator, admin/password, and my original user/pass, and it keeps getting rejected. I must be missing something here.
Edit... basically I think I tried to restore my settings too early. Instead I factory reset, did the basic config to get to the ui, then formatted jffs and rebooted. Then admin/admin worked, and I succesfully restored my settings after that. Restoring jffs seemed to go well, except diversion didn't restore properly (guessing because I had to first reformat my usb).

Hi, i did a dirty upgrade from 348.18 to 348.19 on ax88u and now it restart randomly. Some times one cpu is 100% and in top show this:
Code:
PID PPID USER STAT VSZ %VSZ CPU %CPU COMMAND
35 2 user SW 0 0.0 0 24.9 [skb_free_task]RT-AC86U (Main) & RT-AC68U (Node) dirty flash both from 384.18 - 384.19 and mostly gone well, in fact my 86U is now holding onto the DFS channels much better so all good there. However I have noticed a small issue and that is on the Traffic Analyser - Statistic page my monthly usage has pretty much disappeared and restarted from the update day, and under the devices list the top 5 apps per device aren’t being listed however if I click apps it shows up correctly, nothing major that is gonna cause me to loose sleep just wondering if anyone else has the issue, and to feed it back.
Go to WAN -> NAT Passthrough...
For VoWiFi to work for me I had to enable IPSec passthrough as below... try enabling other ones and find which does your carrier use:

Strange things happened, upgrading from 18 to the 19 version.
Have one RT-AX88U and a RT-AC68U as AiMesh (both on 18).
First I upgraded my RT-AX88U and all worked as expected.
Then I upgraded my RT-AC68U (via RT-AX88U).
Then I suddently have no Internet Access.
Went back to v.18 on RT-AX88U, and I have no problems connecting the Internet.
(tried this two times - with same result). Save behavior with my smartphones.
Have no clue what informations is needed - in this case

How can I format the JFFS partition on my 86U? When I apply the format JFFS at next boot setting, the browser barks at the admin name change on the page even if I blank the fields, so I don't know if it's applied anything at all. I've tried several browsers and it's always the same thing. My JFFS shows unmounted after many attempts and reboots.
Just to clarify: If I modify anything at all on the Administration page and hit "Apply", it wants to do something with the top area and the admin name, no matter what's in there.]
Is there an SSH way to format/fix the JFFS so I can actually see the commands working? I'm aware the command itself runs at boot time when unmounted.

This statement is not correct. Have tested a little more, and
v. 19 on RT-AX88U is the culprit, where I cannot access the
Internet.
Right now.... back on v. 18 on both routers :-(
You can try:
Bash:
nvram set jffs2_format=1
nvram commit
service reboot- Status
