Quote from: Bright I noticed over on the SmallNetBuilder forum, the current view seems to be that Asus might have made a mistake and released an incorrect firmware version. The "expected" release was 4.354. The 5.354 is thought to be a beta release, which includes the dual WAN feature and this has been released by mistake. If that is the case, Asus will probably withdraw the 5.354 release on Monday (Taiwan time) and put out the correct release. So I wouldn't rush to update the firmware until it becomes clear if this is the correct release
Funny you say that Bright, I haven't seen any improvements to wifi or ethernet speeds. If anything, Merlin was perhaps a touch faster. Well bitten the bullet I have, due mainly to the cursed GUI lockout. I'll keep the 354, or may revert to Merlin. It's just that niggling feeling that because I had Merlin fw when those lockouts happened, perhaps there maybe something in Merlin that caused those lockouts. Hope I'm wrong, that Merlin is so smooth

The GUI lock-out is strange. I'm also using Safari, Chrome and Firefox on a Mac and haven't experienced it at all (on Merlin 3.0.0.4.266.23 at present).
Anyway, hopefully it has gone away, in which case it must have been a firmware issue.

I don't know. The only thing I used to do was log in, and then kill the tab or browser without logging out from the router. Now in theory that should log one out, may be the session would eventually time out. But last lockout, I did wait patiently for about 2 hours to log back in without success. So now I make a determined effort to logout whenever I get into the router GUI.

If it happens again you could try deleting your browser's cookies for the router (it sets 4 cookies).

Yep, I'm on Merlin 3.0.0.4.270.26 as well, been it it since day one, barring a few hours that I uploaded 5.354. Merlin 270 is quite an improvement on the original fw
