[RT-AC68U] DLNA Problem with 3.0.0.4.378.9313 and 3.0.0.4.378.9135 crashing Cisco DMA2100

[Al Zieba]

I opened a case with Asus Tech Support this past weekend, but haven't heard back yet. There is a problem with 3.0.0.4.378.9313 and 3.0.0.4.378.9135 code. This code causes all of the Linksys DMA2100 Windows Media Center Extenders in my house to crash/lockup. My only solution was to revert back to 3.0.0.4.378.4585. The problem is very similar to this one in the link, except that the culprit is the ASUS RT-AC68U ->http://www.thegreenbutton.tv/forums/viewtopic.php?p=70348#p70348

Also, not sure if it is related, but I was testing the cloudcheck IOS application as the same time. So it could be the ASSIA agent or configuration it does on the 68U.

I took a wireshark trace of it as well.

Wanted to add that those firmware as well as Merlin's 56_2 also breaks Windows media center hdhomerun network tuner detection.

I'm back to John's fork V14E1 on my 68P

Heard back from Asus Tech Support, this is a known issue, they are working on it. Last good known working firmware is 3.0.0.4.378.4585. Stay tuned for a permanent fix.

Thank you for your interest in Cloudcheck.

ASSIA Agent doesn't modify any routers settings in the router to cause a crash or lock up on wifi connected devices.

CloudCheck, I have to disagree. Even with .4585 code, it works fine until I run the Smartifi part of your app. After that, my Cisco DMA2100s will not come up. I can reboot everything and still no change. My only recourse is to reload the firmware on my RT-AC68U router. While your app may not modify the router, it could be activating a service that is causing my problems.
