First of all, thanks to Eric Sauvageau, the man behind Asuswrt-Merlin firmware for lot of Asus wireless routers. Merlin firmware has most of the features from the original stock Asus firmware. In addition, the lot of new features have been added or enhanced. Personally, I prefer Merlin firmware over the stock one. And if your Asus wireless router are following one of them – RT-N66U, RT-AC66U, RT-AC66U_B1, RT-AC56U, RT-AC68U, RT-AC68P, RT-AC68UF, RT-AC87, RT-AC3200, RT-AC88U, RT-AC3100, RT-AC5300, RT-AC1900, RT-AC1900P and RT-AC86U, do try Merlin firmware then. You will love it as I do…
I am facing UPnP media server address keep changing when reboot on my RT-AC86U with stock firmware. Reported several time to Asus Support. But not yet solved until now. Guess what? Merlin firmware does not have such issue at all. AiMesh is not yet supported on Merlin. But will be coming soon in the near future. So do follow this How to install Asus Merlin Firmware? guide to enjoy Merlin on your router too.
