AsusWrt-Merlin has announced the availability of a new firmware package targeted at several ASUS router models, namely version 380.59.0, which updates MiniUPnPd to 2.0, and allows SSH WAN access to work over IPv6.

In addition to that, the present update also adds a patch that allows sorting fields on the DHCP static lease page, and includes all fixes and improvements brought by the previous 380.59 Beta 2 AsusWrt-Merlin Firmware.

If you intend to make use of these changes, first know that the developer has provided installation files compatible only with ASUS’ RT-N66U (B1, R, W), RT-AC88U, RT-AC87 (R, U), RT-AC68 (P, R,W ,U), RT-AC66 (W, U, R), RT-AC56 (R, U, S), RT-AC5300, RT-AC3200, and RT-AC3100 routers.

Therefore, if supported, save the appropriate package for your device model, unzip it, establish a wired connection between the router and your computer, and go to Advanced Settings > Administration > Firmware Upgrade.

Afterwards, near the “New Firmware File” section, hit “Choose File” button, navigate and select the .trx file, click “Upload,” and wait patiently as the upgrade is performed. Also, to avoid any problems and malfunctions, make sure not to interrupt this process in any way.

With this in mind, download AsusWrt-Merlin Router Firmware 380.59.0 for your specific device, apply it, and constantly check our website to stay informed when newer versions are available for your device.
