Could you check init-broadcom.c and Advanced_IPTV_Content.asp on 18219 ?
There are some of codes related with IPTV for HND router. (I don't know what they mean exactly.)
IPTV port feature really doesn't work on Merlin now.
Thanks.

The 18219 merge will have to wait for 382.2, as it's only compatible with the RT-AC86U.
 
I uploaded Beta 3 builds to the SourceForge mirror, because Mediafire is, once again, broken. I'm currently unable to upload to it, all uploads abort after 10-20%. Another support ticket filed with them...

I'll do a more formal release once they fix their ****. Here's the changelog:

Code:
4fe0847 Updated documentation
fe83c7e libvorbis: checkout files from AM380, as the AM382 files would often fail to configure/compile on ARM
2ac3f39c httpd: Retrieve max CPU clock on HND from bcm_cpuidle rather than kernel cpufreq (which was removed with last SDK update)
762d92c webui: Convert HND CPU temperature from float to integer values
71f5b52 HND: merge latest SDK files from GPL 382_18219, which should in theory include the KRACK fixes for that platform
54a132d iptables: updated to 1.4.15 (fixes iptables-restore on HND)
43bcb9e wget: add files filtered out by gitignore
6ba6cda wget: update to 1.19.2, fixing connectivity to some servers
b19a332 webui: remove username/password validation from code used for CUSTOM DDNS
c330ae0 Revert "libvorbis: add automake-1.11 support"
def86e2 libvorbis: add automake-1.11 support
798dd0f openssl: re-add make depend from AM380
8416601 openssl: update to 1.0.2l (1.0.2j from GPL was initially merged in for 382)
2654afb minidlna: remove USE_DAEMON option from config files, as it would sometimes get re-enabled (and it doesn't work)
35a05e9 kernel41: enable XT_SET kernel module
6b56d48 Bumped revision to beta 3

This release merged the 382_18219 SDK files for the RT-AC86U, which means that model should have the KRACK security fix in place (I'm unable to know for sure, as I have no idea where the fix specifically lies). Asus hasn't released any fixed version yet for the RT-AC88U and RT-AC3100.

Please put special attention on testing wifi on the RT-AC86U, including Repeater and Media Bridge modes.

This should hopefully be the last beta before a first 382.1 final release. I have a few more things lined up that I decided to postpone until 382.2, such as the 382_18219 GPL merge - there's a lot of changes in it, and I don't want to delay this release by another 2-4 weeks just for it.
 
What does " WebUI: Convert HND CPU temperature from float to integer values" do? There still is no CPU temp under Tools or Temperature tabs as I thought Broadcom either doesn't report CPU temp or it is closed source.

382_18219 included Broadcom's proprietary bcm_thermal.ko kernel module, which handles thermal management for their CPU (throttling, fan control, etc...). It also provides a userspace interface to retrieve the CPU temperature.

I added the bcm_thermal module when I updated the HND SDK.

Ah OK. Does this mean we will soon have CPU temp in the GUI? I just loaded your Beta3 for the AC86U and cleared my browser caches but do not see the CPU temp.

CPU temperature is already there.

HMMM..... Why Am I not seeing it with Safari? I cleared the caches.

Check the build version on that page. If it's not Thu Nov 2 03:17:12 UTC 2017 merlin@4fe0847, then you are not running the Beta 3 release.

Doh! That was it. I mistakenly downloaded Beta_3 for the 3100 not the AC86U. Thanks.

BTW - nothing big but something I noticed - when you have an OpenVPN client configured to automatically launch after a re-boot or when the router is powered off then on, the VPN Status and Client pages do not show the external IP address. You have to manually stop then re-start the VPN again and the external IP field is re-populated.
 
Is there any way to put pressure on Asus to release gpl stuff for the RT5300? Would really love to be able to run this new version of the code on my router.
 
Is there any command that can restart Ai protection manually?
Ai protection break samba performance when reboot router.
If is there, I want to add it in script.

Thanks for the reply and help but not sure how to use ethctl.

My wan-up script uses robocfg to create a 832 tagged vlan on lan port 2:

#!/bin/sh
robocfg vlan 1 ports "1 3 4 5t"
robocfg vlan 832 ports "2t 5t"
vconfig add eth0 832
ifconfig vlan832 up
brctl addif br0 vlan832

Any idea how I would be able to do this on the 86U?
Sorry, no idea.
 
@RMerlin

this is on beta 2 and 3 didn't test on 1

I had QoS - Web History Enabled and it was logging just fine. I turned it off on the 26th and just today I turn it back on and it's not showing anything new being logged, just all the old entries still listed? possible bug?

Also when I select one of my clients to just show it's traffic I get two others in the mix. Other clients when i select them just shows their traffic.

Sux I might have to set default settings and and manually set anything up again, funny though cuz I just did that afew days ago

They haven't released any new firmware for it yet, so I assume it means because it's not ready yet. Can't pressure software development, debugging takes whatever time it takes.

I think the WebHistory database is stored in /jffs/.sys/ . Try disabling Web History, deleting the database there, then re-enabling it.
 
382.1 Beta 3 is now available on Mediafire. Website and first post updated, update server should start offering it in a short while.
 
Got beta 3 installed and set up on my new 86U and working well.

Testing SMB transfers over lan with the same ext3 formatted usb 3.0 drive I've been using on my 68U untill today, and with USB 3.0 interference setting turned off, the speed is not what I expected, only around 15MB/s.

Just to test I set the SMB2 protocol setting to no and now have no access to the drive.

This is what's in the log:

Edit: FTP transfers are around 90MB/s.

Just reinstalling latest Asus stock firmware to test.
