Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.3 is now available

[paul0363]

@RMerlin
In your changelog of your most recent 386.3_2 build you say "- FIXED: DNSFilter client rules may get corrupted after a reboot."

I have performed this upgrade and am unsure how to tell if this info was corrupted or not after the upgrade. Instead of spending time trying to figure it out (and maybe doing it incorrectly), I thought the easiest "insurance" would be to spend the same time (or less) as follows... To be safe, I was just going to upload the settings that I saved immediately prior to this last upgrade. If I do so, would that help insure that IF my info was corrupted during upgrade, it will be restored to uncorrupted condition? If not, how do I confirm that my info was NOT corrupted during the last upgrade?

Thanks!

Take a look at this thread. The corruption was duplicate entries in the list of filtered clients so, unless you've got clients being added to the list on reboot, you don't have a corrupted list.

Same empty boxes and no links to QR codes on my AC86u.

Both in Safari and Firefox (on macOS).

Same in Firefox on Windows 10.

Only error in Console:

Blocked loading mixed active content “http://nw-dlcdnet.asus.com/plugin/js/extend_custom_icon.json”

@RMerlin thank you for your answer.
Here is the result on Edge :



Now the result on Firefox :

What authentication method are you using? There's no webui error, yet your webui isn't fully loading, with that field remaining empty.

Anyone having their GUI expand all sub-menus on the side panel, creating a cluttered mess?

This could be due to the new Sitemap feature in scMerlin. Try clearing browser cache to resolve: "Forcing a browser cache refresh (e.g. Ctrl F5) may be required to load the WebUI changes."

Thank you, it was the hovering feature of scMerlin, and a ctrl+refresh did fix it.

initially using brave browser (shields down) + tried to upgrade. got an invalid firmware message.
rebooted the router, then tried edge. = success.

so not sure if lack of reboot or browser incompatibility.
router: RT AC88U
was upgrading from 386.2_6

Make sure you have downloaded the firmware for RT-AC88U and not the RT-AX88U file ???

What authentication method are you using? There's no webui error, yet your webui isn't fully loading, with that field remaining empty.

Thank you for your answer.
I use the WPA2-Personal authentication method :

For your information, even with the previous Merlin firmware, the boxes were always empty. I don't even have a link for the QRCODE.

On the other hand, in the guest network tab the QRCODE link works well :

I would like to understand what is going on and find a solution.
This is the only problem I have. Otherwise everything else is very stable :

How long are your SSID and WPA Keys?

Both of my 2.4 and 5GHZ SSIDs are 13 characters long and WPA keys are 11 characters long.

I'm using WPA-2 Personal authentication method. I've the QR CODE link under 2.4GHZ but the link doesn't even show up under 5GHZ. No issue with QR CODE under Guest Network as it's working fine.

Hope this explanation helps you getting to the root cause of the issue.

Do you use anything that modifies your webui? It might be incompatible.

I don't use anything that modifies the Webui. I also do a hard reset (WPS reset) after every merlin firmware update to get the best performance and stability.
I don't have any extra plugins or other tweaks, just the merlin firmware.
For information I use the latest version of Firefox and the latest version of Edge.
I don't understand where this problem comes from and apparently other users have the same thing.

What browser extensions have you installed? If you do, start your browser without it.

I just started Firefox with Ublock removed and my antivirus disabled, the problem remains the same.

Thank you for the procedure. Here is the result with Firefox opened in safe mode :

The problem is the same. The problem is the same. Empty boxes and no QRCODE.
