Topic: Dlink DIR320 with kernel 2.6 problems

The content of this topic has been archived on 25 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

I'm today build kamikaze 8.09 r1503 with 2.6 broadcom default cfg (because 2.4 cfg  in SVN not exist today sad((((   )  and put it in to Dlin DIR-320.
after reboot i can't login in device via telnet.
I try to ping device but answers from it are unstable.
in latest 2.6 cfg for broadcom i have this problem  too
in some variant of last 2.6 cfg i can login sometimes but  telenet session was very unstable too
conection via telnet breakin when i try save edited in vi files or jast when I try "ls" in  / sad
is it 2.6 still unstable for broadcom deviÑ es ?!
if still unstable, why 2/4 cfg was removed ?

LOL. The switch isn't working without patches...

where I can found this patches ?
and do I need add string: CONFIG_MTD_CFI_B1=y
in kernel config file?

you can select 2.4 image:
make menuconfig - taget system -  Broadcom BCM947xx/953xx [2.4]

after reboot i can't login in device via telnet.
I try to ping device but answers from it are unstable.

this work for me:

# ping -i 0.01 -s 1000 -c 100 -q 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 1000(1028) bytes of data.

current 2.6 trunk have problem with flash erase/write on this device.

yes, but on asus write to flash work with 2.6 kernel.

ps: 2.4 kernel work on bith asus and dlink

I need kernel 2.6 because the usbserial have suport for E156 and E220 (3G USB modem).
The patch 4729 is applied in r15959.
I try  r18260 with kernel 2.6, and run make kernel_menuconfig
select Memory Technology Devices (MTD) --> select Memory Technology Devices (MTD) ->
Ram/Rom/Flash chip drivers -->>> Ram / Rom / Flash chip drivers -->>>

check all "Support X-bit buswidth" check all "Support X-bit buswidth"
check all "Support X-chip flash interleave" check all "Support X-chip flash interleave"

But I can't ping DIR-320.
kernel 2.6 not work in dir-320, yet?
Any help?
