[Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.9 is now available

[snoopeloop568]

A web browser issue, not the router.
Maybe try an alternative browser if you’re not having any luck.....

Not sure what it was. Reset everything to default and it's fine now.

I was up on 384.8_2 for 35 days straight and don't know what happend 35 days ago.

Upgrade to 384.9 is smooth so far. Love stability and the combination of this firmware with the AC3100. Thank you Merlin.

AC86U after flash 384.9, do factory reset. every things ok. when try to change the default from China to Austria, the WIFI test speed drop from 2xxM to 10-to 30M and not stable, When change back to China or Singapore, the speed came back.

Thank you, Merlin

Flashed on AC88U. 2 bugs here

1. The know asus bug on this release about networkmap listing may be unreliable, it was worked always fine until now that show always only a few devices and never all of them
2. Merlin firmware "bug". When i go to new classification tab first stay about 20sg showing nothing and then show all my conections, there are about 400 from my iptv decoder doing the tab freeze, then works 3sg and freeze again about 15sg because autoupdate is 3sg. I manage to change the option to no refesh and a few second later i can see the tab working. How i can stop scan my iptv conections? they are on a different vlan.

Where is the download Master from the menu?

But for a direct link, I go into it and it works ...

WT..??

Seems like something is crashing on my AC88U every time I go to the QoS page which causes the firewall to restart. I don’t have QoS on, but that didn’t happen under 384_2. This is what shows up in the log after I go to the QoS page.

hi, my RT-AC87U are running very slow on the 5g network, but its ok on the 2,4 g.
I have done the factorie resetting.
do you want any logs?

The RT-AC87U 5 GHz wifi firmware hasn't changed in nearly two years, so it's unrelated to the 384.9 release.

I rolled back to 384.8_2 and immediately the firmware recognises the internet connection and the warnings on the phones vanish so I don't think something is quite right with this firmware..

People have been reporting similar issues for the last three release now... So it's nothing new to this release, and I have never reproduced it myself. Check the WAN monitoring settings under Administration -> System, and disable any advanced DNS feature such as DNSSec in case your nameservers aren't compatible with it.

Check your DNS settings. Unrelated to the firmware itself.

why no Asustralia or New Zealand in the list for the asus rt ax88u

Because Asus/Broadcom don't have region-specific settings for Australia/NZ, or they don't have SKUs for that specific region. Wifi and region related code is entirely closed source and outside of my control.

AC86U after flash 384.9, do factory reset. every things ok. when try to change the default from China to Austria, the WIFI test speed drop from 2xxM to 10-to 30M and not stable, When change back to China or Singapore, the speed came back.

Stick to your actual region. Running the router for the wrong region will cause problems with clients that aren't able to handle those regions, and is also illegal in various countries.

That page lists everything that is tracked by the Trend Micro DPI engine, I have no control over what it tracks.

Where did you find Austria???
Do you mean Australia?
Maybe its using different channels and bandwith set to Australia, proof everything else is exactly the same with Wifi-analyzer app on mobile or PC.
