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

[john9527]

Ok. Changed back to admin and it works.
So did I find a bug?

Sure did ....it was an ASUS code block that got pulled in. Already wrote the patch.

When Im on 25E8 I can see all shared content on Kodi under Windows Network (SMB) but when Im on 26E3 There is nothing there. To do it I have to manually specify smb://and my pc Ip.

Same bug I had. Change your login name to admin or make that script thingy. Look back a few posts.

Works fine on my Kodi. I have 2 USB drives attached to a 68U.

I dont have usb drives. All my content is shared from my pc to kodi boxes its been fine up until new firmware. Reverted back to 25e8 and everything is fine

If you aren't using router USB drives, I don't see how it's related to the router firmware. One thing about Kodi, it still uses SMB1 for it's sharing. You can't disable SMB1 on the PC.

(I also directly share from my HTPC drives to Kodi, and it works fine).

I also have no issue when sharing from a PC drive to Kodi on another PC. And with Kodi on a Nvidia Sheild.

Mine is to Kodi running on a Fire TV and a Fire TV Stick over AC wireless. Sharing, no problems. HTPC is running Win7 Pro.

Dont know then. Ill just keep running on 25e8 for now, because like I said its working perfectly on this one but not so on 26e3 thats all. Must be something to to with smb update i suppose

Just wondering with the latest merlin firmware, AC68U C1 can still flash it but no support for troubleshoot or just can't flash at all? Thanks

Sorry, but it's a little unclear what you are asking about....

The latest Merlin firmware starting with 380.57 also supports the AC68U C1 and later revs of the AC68 design with the newer processor.

This fork as of right now doesn't support the later revs. I'm currently working with someone on testing a fork version that will support the newer revs, but it isn't generally available yet.

380.57

380.57? = * 380.67

 

[john9527]

380.57? = * 380.67

380.57 or later for Merlin's builds (380.57, 380.58, .....380.66, 380.67)

Sorry, i think i got confuse between the Merlin firmware and the LTS version as i thought they are the same. So i guess i can still flash merlin 380.xx on my C1 just not this LTS version. Thanks

@john9527 I've got an odd observation. On the FTP Share page the "owner" (for want of a better word) of the USB device is set to the DDNS Host Name if there is one. Otherwise it's set to the NVRAM productid (I think) which is consistent with the ftpd_banner.

Setting it to the DDNS Host Name just seems a strange choice to me. I guess the thinking behind it is that the FTP server will be accessed from the WAN, in which case why not change ftpd_banner as well? It's still set this way even if WAN access is disabled. I suppose it doesn't really matter as it's only cosmetic.

Edit: Yay! Attachment #10000.

Probably related to the code history....I'm pretty sure the original ASUS implementation didn't have the ability to disable the WAN access (Merlin added that), so it made sense to use the DDNS name if it was available.
