I spent several hours debugging, but after i dropped into a Reddit thread concerning another ASUS motherboard, I found the solution.</p> <h3 id="i-had-to-shutdown-the-computer-and-pull-out-the-power-cord-after-waiting-5-minutes-i-put-it-back-in-and-booted-the-computer">I had to shutdown the computer, and pull out the power cord. After waiting 5 minutes, I put it back in and booted the computer.</h3> <h2 id="bluetooth-was-back">Bluetooth was back...</h2> <h2 id="who-knew-have-you-tried-turning-it-off-and-on-again-would-actually-be-the-answer">WHO KNEW &quot;Have you tried turning it off and on again?&quot; would actually be the answer?!?!</h2> <p>PS: I assume the cord pulling and waiting is the important part, making sure the system is completely without power.</p>https://rikosjett.com/til/31/Tue, 15 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +0100https://rikosjett.com/til/31/<p>When the MX Master 3 is not in constant use, it seems like it is going into sleep mode, or something like that. Turning off sleep in power management in device manager, for the Intel Wireless Bluetooth seems to fix the issue.</p> <img src="158328716-cac8ff0a-8251-4d70-b158-93e251f42004.png" alt="device_manager" loading="lazy"> <img src="158328723-82d3b2d6-043b-403b-a9cb-4ae6e8c15c2a.png" alt="power_management" loading="lazy">https://rikosjett.com/blog/5-steps-to-custom-firmware-asus-rt-n66u/Mon, 06 Apr 2015 00:00:00 +0200https://rikosjett.com/blog/5-steps-to-custom-firmware-asus-rt-n66u/<p>&quot;ASUS RT-N66U&quot; is well-known for its reliability and performance, and is considered one of the best consumer routers on the market. However, if you find its software a bit limited, you can easily install third-party firmware to make it even better. And if you do everything right, you'll be up and running within 30 minutes.</p> <img src="asus-forfra_63031e_0.jpg" alt="ASUS RT-N66U" loading="lazy"> <blockquote> <p><strong>WARNING</strong>: This post is for informational purposes only and is intended for people who know what they are doing. If the terminology seems scary or foreign at any point, I recommend finding a more comprehensive guide, or keeping the original firmware on your router. If something unexpected happens along the way, or if a user error occurs, you may have to reinstall the original firmware. In extreme cases, it could render your router unusable. Read the steps carefully before you decide to go ahead, and if you choose to follow the steps, do so at your own risk.</p>
