@hnyman do you also experience issues with the 5Ghz?
With my WNDR4300 I experience with some devices that they can see the 5Ghz and can connect.
At some point the devices are disconnected and cannot see the 5Ghz anymore except if I reboot the router.
I'm asking this because the WNDR3700v2 is similar as the WNDR4300.
If you need additional kernel modules, you probably should use the release build, as installing kmods to private builds will fail to kernel checksum check. You might try manual install with opkg using --force-depends but that may brick the device.
Ah ok.
What's the difference between these two? kmod-fs-ntfs=y and ntfs-3g.
One is a kernel module and the other one is a package I suppose, but do they not depended on each other?
When I started the community build 6 years ago, the ntfs-3g wasn't quite stable (or finished), so I have only included the kmod-fs-ntfs, which does not offer full support. I think that it offers read-only.
But there have not many many requests for ntfs capabilities during the years, so I have never bothered to include ntfs-3g, which offers more full support for ntfs.
I own a few devices (clients) that cannot handle higher channels (if channel=auto selected) - so if the router (auto) switch the channel -> sometimes these are invisible for that devices (my Netgear WN2500RP and some USB3.0 AC Dongles donĀ“t like them) | Set the channel manual and/or update | change the clients.
I saw this behaviour with the devices WNDR3700v2 and the TP-Link Archer C7 v2
You can easily copy my settings using the script included in the download directory if you want to build v4 for yourself. But it is a nand device and different than the others so I am not interested in that and will not build it myself.
Will try it next weekend... is there any build root for LEDE? Also have some Huawei hg556a to test.... Amigos from foro.seguridadwireless.net have some detailed instructions how to...
This build seems to have the same issue the core LEDE snapshots have on the 4300 I bought- it's no longer vending the overriden MAC address to my provider, causing pain (and a new IP).
Is it possible to decrease the transmit power without having to restart the wifi signal? i tried this in wndr3700 but without sucess. Every time i need to restart wifi to make changes. Only save dont modify the value.
I need to make a handover without lost connection.
r39183: WPS pin code set to the original value given by Netgear in the label at the router's bottom
# Set WPS label pin to match original Netgear value stored in art partition
# Value for wps_pin can be overridden by /etc/config/wireless
local PINdefault="$(dd if=/dev/mtdblock6 bs=1 skip=18 count=8 2>/dev/null)"
set_default wps_pin "$PINdefault"
WNDR3800 does not have a sticker with a pincode WPS ...
The factory stickers indicate the WiFi Network Name (SSID) and Network Key (Password).
My notebook has only Wifi, so it's very important that after the initial firmware, the WiFi is included with the SSID and Key from the sticker on the case.
Is it possible to do this?
