I guess the RT Ac3200 won't ever get updated they about drop support?

The AC-3200 is not on Asus's End-of-Life list.

No, as Cake is not supported by 4.1.51, plus it's not directly compatible with sfq/codel/fq_codel. Using Cake would require completely rewriting the tc configuration, which only Trend Micro/Asus can do, unless you were to completely disable Adaptive QoS, and configure everything manually yourself.



Why go with stock firmware? The reason for me dropping it is specifically because Asus is also dropping it. You won't be getting any further updates by moving to stock (or if Asus did, then I would be able to resume support for it as well).

Ahh I understand

GPL 384_32799 - interesting! It contains "WiFi stability fix" for my RT-AC68U
Will check it out. Too bad ASUS did not elaborate what this "stability fix" is about.

 

[EricLinTW]

There sitll with a UPNP problem when use Dual Wan(Dual PPPoE) both non-public IP. QQ

Can i update my ac 66U B1 with this version?

The cost is 800 NOK / 95 USD per month, but it's being fully paid by my workplace.

And here I'm paying $50 for 12/2 Mbps

great results with ac5300

I have gigabit connection. 930/480 Mb/s.

httpd SSL certs were moved from /jffs/ssl/ to /jffs/.cert/ to be in line with Asus's own firmware.

httpd keeps deleting my persistent webui cert every time the service is restarted. I looked at the situation briefly and believe its due to the following commit;

https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng/commit/bbe96bef4b469210b79f4072ff379f0e23ddad80

    if (d_exists("/jffs/ssl")) {
        system("/bin/rm -f /jffs/ssl/* /jffs/.cert/"); /* */
        rmdir("/jffs/ssl");
    }

Should this instead be;

    if (d_exists("/jffs/ssl")) {
        system("/bin/mv -f /jffs/ssl/* /jffs/.cert/"); /* */
        rmdir("/jffs/ssl");
    }

The next issue is with /jffs/ssl/ being deleted (during boot?), the certs are never saved. I believe this is due to the following line where the old path is still specified.

https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-me...790b82/release/src/router/httpd/httpd.c#L2184

#if defined(RTCONFIG_JFFS2) || defined(RTCONFIG_BRCM_NAND_JFFS2) || defined(RTCONFIG_UBIFS)
    eval("cp", "-p", "/etc/cert.pem", "/etc/key.pem", "/jffs/ssl/");
    chmod("/jffs/ssl/key.pem", S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR);
#else

Or maybe I'm completely wrong and somehow not setting persistent certs correctly as I normally do

That is quite high price for package you have currently. I am paying about 50 usd or 65 cad for symmetrical gigabit, not bad in my books for speed and consistency.

You will have to be more precise than that...

Thanks. Not sure why it didn't happen here with my saved certs, I'll have a look at it.

That was already fixed by this commit:

This is definitely wrong, will fix it. Thanks.

I thought I was going crazy, I'd be lying if I said I didn't repeatedly mess with settings thinking I was in the wrong Luckily only applies to anyone who formats so could be worse.

Here's a temporary fix for anyone for is affected.

mkdir /jffs/ssl
service restart_httpd
mv /jffs/ssl/* /jffs/.cert/

I probably never encountered it because all my routers use a certificate that I uploaded. This httpd code would cause problems if someone were letting the router generate the certificate for them but had it set as persistent.

Router is ASUS AC86U.
When I use Dual PPPoE on wan and Lan1(Load Balance)，UPNP will not Forward any port.(My PPPoE IP both non-Public)
Use UPNP test also can't get external IP.
If I switch Dual wan to Fail over that work normally.Use UPNP test can get my external IP.
If using official 384_32799 dual wan UPNP work normal at any mode.
I see changelog with a fix "non-Public IP WAN UPNP"，maybe dual wan still with a problem?

Dual WAN could be a different case. I don't touch the Dual WAN code, so I don't know how Asus implemented it.

 

[EricLinTW]

Thanks for your Reply，Maybe I can try hard to find some Solution.After all, Merlin is so good.Thanks for your work.

 

[Sonyrolfy]

Thats why i love the RT-AC86U on a 200/20 line. These speeds are with a VPN ...
