Dumb question: Is it expected that the flash upgrade has "dropped" the NAND?
e.g. the file name has gone from "openwrt-ipq807x-generic-xiaomi_ax3600-squashfs-nand-sysupgrade" to "openwrt-ipq807x-generic-xiaomi_ax3600-squashfs-sysupgrade"
Thank you, but before I could use your advice, it turned out that yesterday's build was installed without any problems, even though the previous two didn't want to.
I use it in the WAN side because my ISP uses it. It worked without problem. I've not used it in the LAN side.
Yes, it was intentional change to follow the standardised naming

It's a random issue, but it doesn't happen if we stop wpad before sysupgrade.
is this still happpening ? i thought it was fixed and certainly on the dyna + qnap it doesn't happen to me ...
Yes, I think so, but personally I don't experience it much, not many wifi clients here and the last time I stopped wpad.
I finally backported couple of newer commits for ath11k that we were missing.

I have robimarko's version from around two months ago. I saw some partition size discussions. If I want to update now to the latest release should I do something special or just use sysupgrade?
If you're updating from robimarko's build to robimarko's build you don't need to do anything special.

Installed latest version, that I suppose comes with this two new commits, and all seems to be working perfectly.
Hello, looking for a router to buy for my office. Is it usable in cooperate environment? Is it fully functional like in stock? Is OFDMA + MU-MIMO working? Can it handle 20 people with 50mbps per one?

I also use it on the wan side - because i connect the AX3600 as "dumb" ap over vlan to my central ax3200. I am not using it on LAN side. But this should work, too...

Hi, I have upgraded from a 3-month-old robimarko branch with sysupgrade with keeping all configs. It worked fine, except that the wifi tx is throttling (breaking down) while I have set wireless.radio2.txpower='21' (125mW). This was not the case with the old build.
Here is my iperf3 results that confirm this.

Would it be possible that the txpower option is broken on latest build?
Can somebody confirm my iperf3 results on ax3600? (note that iperf3 server must be on the wifi side to test txpower, it works without throttling on rx direction)
Maybe something is worst compared with older versions. I only tested download/upload speed against internet servers. I've a 100/100 line. Until now, my tests were showing the 100/100 limit perfectly, but now, I get 100 in download but 60 or 70 in upload. So something seems wrong in the upload.
I know internet servers are not the best way to test this, but is the way I can test it right now and I've used it in the latest months without problem.

For those who can test it: try using the wifi with cipher set from Auto (psk-ccmp in wireless config file) to Force AES (ccmp in config). I have a reason to believe that it causes wpad or ath11k to crash.
EDIT: After some more testing its only one (old ecobee thermostat) out of ~fifteen network clients causes ath11k to crash so there's more to it then just ccmp setting.
I have 1gig/300mbit fiber line, latest Robi gives exactly that: 932/326Mbits on speedtest.

Maybe some problem with my ISP? Each test gives me a different speed, the major part very low. Usually it was very stable.
If there aren't more reports there will be something on my side.
Using Force CCMP for months without problems.
This is just a quick test between two AX3600 (master, client)
VLANs involved.
CH36 - 160 Mhz wide - 24 dBm for both - 1 stream (I know that WiFi would be faster with more parallel streams..), Forced CCMP

BTW: I experienced dropped TX flow to ~50 Mbit/s after some uptime (before tests), unfortunately I'm not sure what caused this and I was not able to replicate it yet.
