GPL firmware 3.0.0.6.102_33340 for RT-AX88U Pro Released

[Perry Rhodan]

Asus just released GPL 3.0.0.6 for the RT-AX88U Pro. Haven't looked at other models but likely there are others as well.

Hopefully that means we'll see this router added to the 3.0.0.6 Merlin firmware.

Hopefully that means we'll see this router added to the 3.0.0.6 Merlin firmware.

RMerlin has indicated they get the code directly from Asus when it was pointed out that GPL 3.0.0.6.102_37094 for BE88U was publicly released.

I have particular requirements, so I get the code directly from Asus.

Regardless of where Merlin gets the code the fact is Asus has just posted 3.0.0.6 GPL for the RT-AX88U Pro which until now was not available.

Maybe Merlin has it already, maybe not. At least now we know it's available.

Damn you, @Perry Rhodan . You beat me to this post by +3 hours. Anyone have an idea how long it typically takes @RMerlin to release the Beta?

102_33340 is older than the code I am currently working on for all other Wifi 7 models, and I have no intention of developing a separate branch just for that model.

This is one of these special "requirements" that I mentionned before - I need all devices to share the same GPL version. 3006.102.2 was a special exception because I needed to add these two new models that were not supported at all yet. The RT-AX88U_Pro isn't new, it already has Asuswrt-Merlin available for it, so it can wait until my requirements are met.
