[Grisu]

Suggestions?

Only such you dont want to hear and found out yourself.
Same here on 68U and 86U ... have to be happy to have a working stick at all.

USB 3.0 SanDisk Ultra 32 GB (new) recognized in USB3 port when USB Mode 2.0 is selected but not when USB Mode 3.0 is selected. Have tried with "default" FAT 32 format and EXT 3 format. Neither worked. Tried two other USB 3.0 SanDisk drives with the same result. RT-AC66U_B1 with RT-AC68U 384-7 B2 firmware. Had loaded Entware on USB 2.0 and decided to try a USB 3.0 stick. Also, the external USB2.0 drive in the back port goes wonky when I switch the front USB to 3.0. Suggestions?

I'm having the exact same issues with the Sandisk 32 GB USB 3.0 Ultra Flair. Tried everything after seeing positive speed test results here, but I've given up on it. Support for USB 3.0 drives is terrible.

Ditto the above post. USB3 support is awful on stock or merlin f/w.

I edited my IP and ddns host out.

Then I don`t understand what your post was about, sorry. That log shows a perfectly normal DDNS update to me.

It was restarting before, wasn't sure if it was still acting up

Try format with NTFS.

I faced problem with FAT32, after format with NTFS, so far so good.

I have an IP Camera (Foscam 8910W) and let it run in uPnP mode to open port. It worked flawlessly with old N66 and AC68U, old firmwares, new firmwares and 384.5 etc...

However, on 384.6 and 384.7b, it couldn't work. FYI, I have tried flashing, resetting, rebooting many times. It always worked with 384.5 and previous firmwares, but whenever the router ran 384.6-384.7b, it stopped working (its Camera Admin page would said uPnP got errors).

Maybe there is some new bug regarding uPnP? Obviously I can set the portforwarding, but maybe that was some bug, so I'd think I'd report it here.

What port are you trying to forward? By default the router will refuse to forward port numbers below 1024, for security reasons. You have to explicitly allow it on the WAN page first.

I had a similar issue with sandisk 16 gb usb mini. at first it worked flawlessly, then a few months back one of two partitions were undetected; i inserted it into usb2.0, problem solved. i haven't switched it back since but will test and see eventually.

I'm also having these issues with a Sandisk 32 GB USB 3.0 Ultra Flair.

The guy in the following thread seems facing the same issue though on a different USB 3 stick: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/entware-which-usb-stick-performs-well.48188/page-7#post-433230

I'm fairly sure USB 3.0 driver works well on 380.66. That's what I've been running for years.

Beta 2 working really good ! DDNS(Asus internal) and vpn server stable
Only thing i have noticed is the time format in Parental Controls Time Scheduling it`s stuck in am pm, cant change to 24h format
Using Sandisk Ultra 16Gb usb 3.0 working fine

I set it run on 8080. As I said, the camera would run fine on the firmwares I tried if I set the portforwarding rule manually.
- On 384.6 and 384.7b (I have not tried with new stock firmwares maybe from 20308), it couldn't work using uPnP mode.
- On 384.5, 384.3, 380.70, 380.66 and corresponding stock firmwares etc..., uPnp mode worked perfectly.

Try a different port, in case that port is already in use (possibly by AiCloud).

Also note that UPNP will now refuse to forward any port defined as a port forward, to prevent conflicts. Check the content of /etc/upnp/config to see the list of denied ports.

Done. Flashed with no problems.

 

[Blacklistedcard]

Upgrade to beta 3 on my AC86U. No issue to report. Running good.

 

[RMerlin]

Please do one last round of tests on DDNS, to confirm that everything is good now and ready for a final release.

Dirty flashed over beta1. Noticed in the UI the server certificate has some SAN entries now.... i'm double NATed using the external method to get the IP, using No-IP service. Imported my pixelserv cert to use previously....

Status :    OK
Issued to :    10.10.10.1
SAN :    10.10.10.1 router.asus.com RT-AC68U-4690 RT-AC68U-4690.xxxxx.net xxxxxxx.hopto.org
Issued by :    10.10.10.1
Expires on :    2028/9/27

A comment on the WebUi here... using double NAT the DDNS page still mentions "The wireless router currently uses a private WAN IP address. This router may be in the multiple-NAT environment and DDNS service cannot work in this environment." which isn't strictly true anymore. Perhaps that could be changed to something more relevant. Additionally if the Lets Encrypt generate cert can only be used by ASUS DDNS service, then shouldn't the radio button for it be removed from other services?
