Can't leave dd-wrt. Really want Merlin ;-)

I have an RT-68U router, with DD-WRT r34080.
I just can't manage to flush stock Asus firmware nor Merlin firmware.
Renaming .trx to .bin and flush on the GUI doesn't work. The Asus recovery tool (hard to find) keep telling me the router is not in recovery mode (which it is).

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks.

Additional Device Icons

First and foremost apologies if this has been discussed before. I tried to search within the forums but couldn't find a thread. My question deals with device icons displayed in the Web UI.
  1. How come the router is displaying some icons that are not available for manual selection? For example I have a Synology NAS, the router is displaying a Synology icon but I'm not seeing how I can select this icon for other devices.

scribe v2.3_1

scribe is a script that installs syslog-ng and logrotate from Entware. Filters for various common logs are included, and logrotate files to manage those logs.

NOTE WELL:
Looking at log files to "see if anything is wrong" is counter-productive. Log files are best used to find the cause of a problem, or gain knowledge of how the system works. Just because a log entry "looks strange" or...

Best router for experimenting with Merlin FW?

$
0

I have a Netgear R7800 in production right now, running Voxel's FW. It works great but I forgot how stripped the NG firmware is and I'm wanting to experiment with Merlin to see if it fits my needs better.

Here are my requirements:

1) Feature and performance parity with R7800 as best as possible (realizing the R7800 is a workhorse).
2) Don't need 8 or 10 ethernet ports. I only actually use 1 on the router itself.
3) Don't need a whole bunch of USB ports.
4) Don't need AX or AD or anything...

[DSL-AC68U] AsusWrt Merlin builds for DSL routers

Hi there,
This thread is about GNUton's Merlin builds for DSL devices.

* A few words about how this project started:
Some days back I bought a DSL-AC68U. I got a used one for 40 euros. As far as I know, this devices is pretty much as an RT-AC68U but it sells cheaper because... maybe... there is no custom firmware for it, so people think they are worse.
Then I decided to make an experiment, let's see how much the price of these devices will be once people will know that there are Asus...

It turns out that this popup appears after a while when logging into the router's webui.
I can't remove that annoying warning. I only solve it temporarily by logging out and logging in again.
I have enough space in nvram.

Block Internet Access activated for a device, but still able to make DNS requests with DNSFiltering?

Hi,

I very recently got Asus AC86U and installed it with the latest Merlin beta. I use Pi-hole on a Raspberry Pi to block ads, and also importantly to easily follow any irregularities on my network.

Additionally, I have some Philips smart lights (Hue bridge) that I want to block accessing the internet - I just want it to work within my LAN. I have blocked its internet access from the Merlin UI.

Pihole works fine, and I've used it and my smart lights for years with my old Netgear before....

Hello,
I have an RT Ac5300 with the latest Merlin WRT firmware. I have separate SSIDs (1 x 2.4 and
2 x 5) but neither my Windows laptop or Windows desktop can see one of the 5GHz networks.
I can see both on iPad, iPhone and a MacBook Air running Windows 10.
The desktop and laptop both have killer 1525 cards. I have tried searching for anything in this but no luck so far. had anyone come across this problem?
Many thanks,
Ian

At another time, with the help of forum members, I wrote a post about installing the Unbound recursive DNS server on Merlin firmware. In all tests, this was the best way to incorporate unbound into Merlin firmware. It is compatible with adblock Diversion and Skynet. Thanks @SomeWhereOverTheRainBow @dave14305

Make sure these options are set in the firmware.

Hi.
Recently a friend here in Spain contracted the fiber with the company ADAMO ... which I installed a DG200A-AC Internal Model router which the installer told him that LAN port 4 was in bridge mode, quasi doing several tests that port It gives you very good connection and very little latency ... I don't know if this is true or not ...
my question is? ... with my router Asus ac 5300 with the Merlin can you configure a port in bridge mode or really my friend's port 4 is not in bridge mode...

Hello. I am trying to to setup a pc to go around the VPN tunnel. Using OpenVPN I have policy rules enabled with VPN and WAN as the active interfaces. I entered the pc's ip (192.168.1.135) and selected WAN as the interface with no luck.

I run Merlin 384.13 and its driving me nuts.

ADblocker question

Right now I use PI-hole on a Rpi2 as a whole home adblocker... I am confused by all the other adblockers that run on the router itself. Is there any advantage to any of them vs PiHole?

Hi All,

I just loaded Asus Merlin fimrware and love it!

I wanted to set up a specific routing rule and am confused on how to do it on the UI.

I basically wanted to set a specific internal IP(item on my network) (static) 192.168.2.26 (for example) to block all traffic outgoing ingoing to it.

Then allow only certain websites to access (siteexample.com) that device and not allow other sites and route the traffic on top of that through a VPN Server(NordVPN) ( which i setup on the VPN setting...
