Wolfy2020 0 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I've just got a new Asus RT-AC56U router and ESET is restricting access to my web admin page. I can load up into it but can't go any further pages will either fail to load or just load partially. If i uninstall ESET everything is fine. Any ideas? Thanks.

Phil_S 3 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 You need to enter the router address as an excluded address under Protocol Filtering in EAV setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rlcronin 3 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 You need to enter the router address as an excluded address under Protocol Filtering in EAV setup. I found the same, but the question is, WHY? What is the router doing, exactly, that is causing ESET to behave this way? I submitted some wireshark traces of this in response to a request from Marcos during the beta period and never heard anything back. -- bc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweX 871 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 FWIW, though I don't use an Asus router, I am able to access my router without adding anything to the exclusions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_S 3 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Dr Teeth, Do you mean that you haven't had to add the router IP to the exclusion list? I'm using an RT-N66U with Merlin 3.0.0.4.372.31 and unless I exclude it the web interface hangs with partially loaded pages, corrupts those that do load and often fails to execute tabs or links to other settings pages. Once I exclude it, everything works fine.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arakasi 549 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) Ron you have issues ESET is working to solve this ....... very minor issues already ....

Another thing ..... this is an issue where the router only needs to be added to the exclusions list troll on Yeah, web pages complying with rfc standards should be rendered correctly with ESET's web protection enabled. Anyways, as Arakasi mentioned, we are trying to get logs from affected clients to determine what exactly is causing the issue. The issue can be worked around by adding the router's IP address to the list of addresses excluded from protocol filtering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing ..... this is an issue where the router only needs to be added to the exclusions list troll on I just found out that the problem could be that in am running Outpost firewall Pro and that Eset Anti-Virus Version 7 is not compatible, either way looks like I am going to have to drop Eset. I have used previous versions of Eset Anti-virus and did not have these proplems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 5,231 Posted December 2, 2013 Administrators Share Posted December 2, 2013 The compatibility issue with Outpost firewall Pro was solved in Ant-Stealth module 1055. Please post the information about installed modules from the About window to make sure you're using the latest. Also I'd like to note that Outpost firewall Pro is not only a firewall but also includes protection modules (system guard, application guard, etc.) that might theoretically clash with ESET as well as with other security solutions. However, in our testing environment we didn't experience any issues after upgrading the Anti-Stealth module to the latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webslinger 2 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) The problem with Asus routers is not related to third party firewall products. Completely separate issue. The Asus routers do poll for active connected devices for enumeration purposes upon accessing the web interface. That might be the cause. There's no way to disable that process in the router though.

Pro 0 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 And a year later this problem STILL exists.

Administrators Marcos 5,231 Posted December 27, 2014 Administrators Share Posted December 27, 2014 This should be fixed in Endpoint v6 and EAV/ESS v8. A workaround for older versions is to exclude the IP address of the router from protocol filtering which is much safer and straightforward than disabling EAV each time you want to access the router's web interface.

Pro 0 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 This should be fixed in Endpoint v6 and EAV/ESS v8. Endpoint v6 ist not yet available. The most recent version is 5.0.2237.0 (see hxxp://www.eset.com/de/download/business/detail/family/150/) When can v6 be expected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugk 397 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Actually v6 of the business products have been released in North America. It will be released in the first quarter of 2015 worldwide (including Germany of course).
