I am having similar problems to this thread (https://www.snbforums.com/threads/how-to-link-aggregation-lacp-on-rt-ac68u-w-r-p.20441/) with LACP my ASUS on merlin's newest 380.67_beta4 and my Synology DS1513+. At some point in the past, it was working but I, unfortunately, do not know when it stopped. It could have been months due to recent work travel. Hopefully, you guys can offer similar assistance if possible.

Asus and synology havent been able to help. I have posted on this forum and two others and had no luck. My previous inquiry within the referenced thread recieved no responses so I apologize in advance for the duplicate post. I wanted to try one last time before bothering Merlin.

MY SETUP
ASUS RT-AC5300 - Teaming is built in on ports LAN1 and LAN2
Firmware - Merlin 380.67 Beta 4
Synology DiskStation 1513+ - Also using ports LAN1 and LAN2
All cables are cat6 and tested working

I have gone through a slew of attempts to get this working again with no success. I have tried stock firmware, the custom teaming scripts for merlins firmware, tried remapping ports for different LAN jacks, etc. Before I came here, I have completely reset the router with latest ASUS firmware and then moved to Merlins latest 380.67.
