ASUS RT-N56U Router Custom Firmware 3.0.3.8.081 Base Description

This package includes a customized firmware developed by Padavan that is targeted at some of ASUS’ routers. The present build brings new improvements, functions, bug fixes, and configurations, and can also boost the overall performance of the device.

ATTENTION:

1) After the first upgrade from official firmware, all settings will be erased. Do not load settings (CFG file) from official firmware!!!
2) If your current custom firmware version is N56U 1.1.2.2-006 or lower, it is absolutely necessary to save your settings to a .CFG file using WebGUI BEFORE upgrading to a newer version. After the upgrade, restore your settings from the saved .CFG file in a usual way.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
