Just now, AsusWrt-Merlin has rolled out a new firmware update, namely version 3.0.0.4.376.46, which includes and makes use of the latest wireless driver. However, this new release is only compatible with ASUS’ RT-AC87U and RT-AC87R devices.

In addition to that, build 376.46 also merges with ASUS’s 2061 GPL that is critical for the new QTN driver targeted at the RT-AC87 devices, and adds a new patch developed by pinwing which fixes several web user interface issues encountered with Internet Explorer 10 and 11.

Moreover, this new release fixes a problem regarding the OpenVPN Client page that was visible in some situations, resolves the DHCP pool validation error spotted on the VPN Server advanced page, and removes an ASUS bug that prevented editing the first VPN Client entry due to broken duplicate check.

When it comes to applying this update, simply save and extract the proper archive for your router model, log into the device’s administration page, and click the “Choose File” button from the firmware update section.

Afterwards, navigate and select the .trx file from the newly created folder and allow the RT-AC68 unit to upload and install the new firmware. Bear in mind that interrupting this process can result in serious device malfunctions.

That being said, download AsusWrt-Merlin Firmware 3.0.0.4.376.46 for RT-AC87, take into account all aforementioned aspects, apply the latest firmware, and enjoy the benefits that this new release brings about.
