Monitor and control your AsusWRT-powered router from Home Assistant

AsusRouter is a custom integration for Home Assistant to monitor and control your AsusWRT (and AsusWRT-Merlin)-powered router using the AsusRouter python library.

The integration uses the native HTTP(S) API (the same way as WebUI) and relies on direct communication with your device.

Documentation and tips

You can find the full documentation on the official webpage.

Use HTTPS connection

It is recommended to use an HTTPS connection to your router (SSL). While both the SSL and non-SSL connections are fully supported, some devices might have issues with disconnects on HTTP. In order to use SSL, you need to enable it in the router settings: Administration -> System -> Local Access Config -> Authentication Method. Put it to BOTH (recommended) or HTTPS. Make note of the port number (default is 8443).

Connected devices number

The integration might show a different number of connected devices compared to the WebUI network map. In this case, refer to the number of devices shown in the AiMesh section of the WebUI. Those two are different regardless of the actual use of AiMesh.

Firmware limitations

Firmware versions 3.0.0.4.x and 3.0.0.6.x are fully supported (older versions might have a limited amount of sensors available). When talking about the FW, 3.0.0.4 might be missed since it is the same all the time. Important is only the last part, e.g. 386.48631 or 102.xxxxx for the stock or 386.7 for Merlin FW.

Firmware 5.x.x (some DSL models) is NOT supported (not AsusWRT).

Installation

HACS

You can add this repository to your HACS: HACS -> Integrations -> Explore & Download Repositories -> AsusRouter

Manual

Copy content of the stable branch custom_components/asusrouter/ to custom_components/asusrouter/ in your Home Assistant folder.

Usage

After AsusRouter is installed, you can add your device from Home Assistant UI.

To connect to the device you need to provide the following data:

IP address or hostname
Username (the one you use to log into the WebUI)
Password
Whether to use an SSL connection

Almost all the integration settings can be reconfigured later via the Configure button on the Integrations' page without the need to remove your device and add it again.

AsusRouter supports 14+ groups of features, including monitoring of:

connected device, CPU, guest WLAN, LED, Aura RGB, load average, network, OpenVPN, parental control, ports, RAM, temperature, WAN, WLAN.

and control of:
