[Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

[Edgarrrrr]

I can't read through this entire thread unfortunately. Just wondering if anyone has this running on AC3200 and how it compares to merlins recent firmware?

Probably take some extra configuration on the VPN server.

Thank you! It worked!

It s on the # 1 post

The following routers were released after the base code used for this fork was available, and are NOT supported.

• AC87U, AC3100, AC3200, AC88U, AC5300 (and the retail R versions)

Ty. Sorry my bad. I skimmed through it and thought it was supported.

I was too optimistic It worked on cellular network, but not from my office. I have option to route all traffic through VPN enabled so I don't understand why it doesn't work.

hi, i have 2 issues:

1) after enabling https or subnet ip (cannot remember ) I cannot login anymore with Firefox (Settings have been updated. Web page will now refresh.
Changes have been made to the IP address or port number. You will now be disconnected from RT-N66U.
To access the settings of RT-N66U, reconnect to the wireless network and use the updated IP address and port number.) but same address works in Chromium. Restarts or what mentioned above didn't help.

2) since I enabled https half of the clicks timeout. I need to stop and click again to try to load a new page in the router UI.

1) I can login from WAN and with hostname but not directly from LAN IP

2) seems to happen more often with Chromium and a bit less with Firefox

Compared to merlin 380.58:
- it seems that it solves my problem of reconnection when my modem reboots (more tests needed)
- slightly slower, cannot reach the full 120MBit like before
let's see how it goes next days.

Clear browser cache. As a test, try using Firefox's Private Browsing mode. If the router GUI works in Private Browsing, it very likely means you have some sort of cache problem.

...

Are you saying that you allow WAN access to the router's GUI?

If so, that is a very, very bad idea. Please consider blocking external access.

I was just trying to pinpoint the exact issue, and indeed I did
Now I just need to know why that happens and solve it

My two cents: because AsusWRT only allows one IP logged in to the router. So, log off in all other places, and only then you're allowed to log in to the router.

If you have a proxy, the IP of your device and the IP of the proxy could be different. You could log in either from your device or from your proxy, but not both at the same time.

You mixed logging in via hostname and via IP in the statement, so I'm not sure what you are really trying here. If you can't login via hostname from your lan and you loaded the V17 code, try this via telnet/ssh

nvram set fw_nat_loopback=1
service restart_firewall

Cleared cache but had the same problem.
Good idea the private browsing though, I'll try.

Everything logged out, no proxy.
Also the message of one ip at the time should be different if I remember it correctly.

No, 3 different things, no mixup.
1 - lan ip: doesn't work anymore
2 - external asus dns: works
3 - internal dns (router.asus.com): works

Have you verified that the LAN IP you are attempting to access is the same IP that router.asus.com resolves to?

You've included a lot of things in your posts....item (1) should be the easiest/least complex way to login. Pllease add
The exact URL you are using.....i.e. https://192.168.1.1:8443/
A screen shot of the Administration>System page with your setup for Web Access
A screen shot of the LAN>LAN IP page
What doesn't work?
- Cannot connect at all?
- Connects, but get's the 'IP address or port' has changed message
- Connects, but gets the 'Certificate error' in your browser (expected, until you install the cert)

Hi John, I cannot vpn now so I cannot give you screenshots, but:
- I use https://192.168.2.1:8443/ and the same address works on Chromium (copy/paste, no mistake)
- In Firefox I get the 'IP address or port' has changed message, but only with the direct IP, which indeed should be the easiest compared to the DNS one, which works instead

Unfortunately I cannot remember if this message started appearing when I was logged out due to subnet change to 192.168.2.x or moving the web ui from http to https (which definitely created this other page loading issue, but I did not notice it again the days after, so let's drop it for now).

I experienced a similar problem. If I accessed a site via https://arbitrary.tld/, Firefox would then force me to https when browsing to arbitrary.tld even when I explicitly typed http. This made the process of switching between http & https quite annoying. The problem was purely browser-related.

Private Browsing, restarting the computer/browser, or anything that completely resets (or avoids) the browsers's cache solves the problem.

all right, as expected the problem was in firefox, although ctrl+f5 or cleaning cache from the settings didn't help.
the only way was to forget the site from history.
i expected history to just care for, you know, history, not cache

Also, I think I narrowed down the pages loading slowly or not at all in Chromium.
It happens trying to see openVPN settings.
