I think the most egregious issue that the asus routers had (even up to the RT-N66U) was that when you used the interface to check for a firmware update, it would report you were on the latest update, even if you were multiple patches behind.
- curun1r 11y agoThe most egregious, for me, is that while they published the source code for their firmware as GPL (good) they were too lazy to incorporate fixes made by a third-party developer who was fed up with their buggy software and decided to do something about it. The AsusWRT Merlin builds are much higher quality and the source code to them is, per the GPL, also available. It's one thing to not fix security issues, it's another thing to have a single guy fixing your security problems and not even be bothered to take his work and pass it on to your customers. They deserve all the punishment they're receiving.
