My daughter just called and pushed the game back a couple of hours, so I uploaded the build to the server as is. It has the bootstrap Luci-theme, so add opentomato theme when you get logged in.
I have not tested CPU, so I can't say either way.
I just test VPN, and these are the fastest speeds I've seen yet. However, this is just one test, and needs to be done over time.
I am seeing various errors in the logs, but nothing that would be considered a show stopper for the 3200acm, but your results may vary depending on the hardware and software added.
Dear solidus1983,
Peace and I am a Quaker - so I know you meant no harm - nor do I. I appreciate your being receptive to my reply to your message. Believe me when I say that this Community and OpenWRT overall is far better for you being an active and contributing member of its' development and progress. Also, I forgot to thank you for your advice about exroot. Thank you very much.
Anyway, Dave has posted his new build with Kernel 5.4.41 and I want to thank you ( as he did ) and all the others who assisted him with getting this up and running. All in all we are all here to assist each other and get along and play nicely. So, at the end of the day - I will heed your initial advice and not press Dave for ETA's in the future concerning the availability of any of his new firmware. It was good advice as I do not want to set any bad practices which set a precedent. Perhaps, I was a bit overly sensitive. Forgive me and you deserve some rest - as I know that you work very hard; I have seen you on many threads ( other than here ) dedicated to OpenWRT development. So, finally - once again thank you for all you do in that regard.
Peace
I just installed the new kernel 5.4.41 version r13244 on my WRT1900ACS and it seems to be stable.
It still has the same high latency problem, I noticed with the previous build r13059.
I suspect the amsdu latcency patch is not working anymore:
I set affinity for crypto to CPU 1, and I see some improvement. I noticed eth0 and 1 are on CPU0, so I thought to separate them, and it seems to have made a difference.
echo "2" > /proc/irq/40/smp_affinity
cat /proc/interrupts to see what your assignments are.
I'm interested to see test results from others to make sure this isn't just 1 good result.
Dear Dave ( and the other assembled OpenWRT Mavens ),
Hello and I hope that you and all your loved ones are well safe and sound down South. First, I am far from as skilled as many here who offer you feedback and their impressions concerning your builds and issues in general. However, as a beginner / intermediate everyday user of OpenWRT - this test works exceedingly well IMHO. About my usage - I run DNS OVER TLS ( with getdns stubby and unbound ) - OpenVPN - WireGuard - Adblocker - banip - acme - watchcat - BCP38 - and all of these are humming along GREAT ! I had tested a few other folks' Kernel 5.4.41 builds and yours is simply outstanding because all of the components work well together - even the kmods. I tested this on 32x and 3200acm.
Thank you so very much for being as thorough as you have always been when putting your firmware out for all of us. I also wish to thank all those who come here to work collaboratively with anyone who needs assistance with virtually any matter related to these routers which we own. I love this Community and - Dave as I said - we go way back - and you are such an affable, genial and consummate gentleman - that the work you do is like a bonus on top of it all. Thanks once again Man - and God Bless Always In Peace You and Yours
PS -
I hope that I did not come off as too mooshy - but I am who I am - like Popeye
r13244 works well for me. Linksys WRT1900ACS V2 with ~50 attached defines, mostly WiFi. I use dnscrypt-proxy v2 and installed wireguard. For the WiFi devices that can handle it, I get near my fiber 300 Mbs download speed.
The drive mounted ! (and I finally know what mounted looks like :D)
I can now access the files in the HDD through my laptop, but my desktop still couldn't get in; getting the same error message.
Also, may I ask where I might read more about the "big_writes" option? I can find references for the other mounting options but not this one.
Also one more side question: does a program supporting samba V2 also support V2.1?
The reason I'm asking is that I also used to access the hdd on my android phone using a file manager (X-plore File Manager). The file manager supports SMB V2 but I couldn't connect in this mode; rather, I had to enable legacy support in openwrt and connect via SMB V1.
PS allowing SMB V1 didn't help with my desktop accessing the hdd.
It seems i am not the only one experiencing unstable wireless latency (300ms+) on 5Ghz with mobile devices since the last release (upgraded now to the r13). Also i can't get the full WAN speed over wifi.
On wired devices i get 939dl/300ul. But on single 5Ghz device i get about 200mbps both ul/dl.
Does not matter 40/80mhz or AC/N.
Packet Steering/software offload/SQM also do not change this result.
Anything i can test or configure either through GUI or CommandLine?
Some of you may encounter this problem, so I'll just let you know.
Python2 packages are no longer included in newer builds. This was the reason why upgrading from r12394-1d4f2ca610 was failling in my case.
I installed r13244-8097fd4d5f and had to redo my whole setup with Python3 this time, and everything is working fine.
Also, over 5Ghz the only channels working seem to be:
36,40,44,48 and 149. (20/40/80Mhz)
Mode: AC
Power: Driver Default
Country Code: Driver Default
No legacy rates
Open Network
Short preamble: Yes
Disable Activity Polling: Yes
Disassoc on low ACK: No
