ASUS Wireless Router RT-N66U – General Log: full of “protocol 0000 is buggy, dev eth0”
Posted by jpluimers on 2013/06/05
Not sure what happened, but my log appeared to be full of these messages:

Note sure what caused it, but others have had it in the past as well.
Other symptoms:
- br0 network becoming slower and slower on download speed (but not on upload speed; in the end I had 0.5 megabit downstream and 5 megabit upstream)
- br0 ping times twice as high as normal (around 30 milliseconds on SpeedTest.net in stead of 15 milliseconds)
- WiFi (especially 2.4: eth1) becoming impossible to connect to from new connections
- packet drops
I thought they were caused because of me experimenting with a Fonera 2100A -> TomadoUSB experiment, especially since my FON access point was limited to 1 megabit.
But as soon as other users started to use the LAN, I got speed complaints about the slowness.
I’ve been running the ASUS RT-N66U in Firmware Version 3.0.0.4.260 with Operation Mode:Wireless router for quite a while now, but I also noticed that it had rebooted itself recently, as the was Uptime 0 days 20 hours when I started digging in the log.
The worst I got:
Ping (milliseconds) | Down (megabit) | Up (megabit) | WiFi connection to |
---|---|---|---|
31 | 0.4 | 0.9 | ASUS RT-N66U: 2.4 Ghz |
Time for a Reboot to see if it gets any better.
Later:
After a reboot the situation turned to normal:
Ping (milliseconds) | Down (megabit) | Up (megabit) | WiFi connection to |
---|---|---|---|
16 | 90 | 10 | ASUS RT-N66U: 2.4 Ghz |
17 | 9 | 8 | Fonera: MyPlace |
17 | 3 | 1 | Fonera: FON_AP |
15 | 2 | 0.6 | Wireless-N 3G Router |
15 | 1.5 | 0.7 | RT N66U TomatoUSB 2.4 Ghz |

WinAmp AACPlus v2 Encoder: how to encode mono
Posted by jpluimers on 2013/06/05
AACPlus allows for a many combinations of encoding flags.
Finding out whick allows to encode a mono audio stream is a bit time consuming.
Luckiliy, I found this post:
If you want encode in mono make this:
enc_aacPlus test.wav test.aac --br (max 256000) --mono
or for streaming:
enc_aacplus - - --br (max 256000) --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16 --mono
Note that the various versions of enc_aacPlus.exe requires the enc_aacPlus.dll from WinAmp.
