Davidc502- wrt1200ac wrt1900acx wrt3200acm wrt32x builds

Already compiled the theme will upload it very soon or can pm you it and you could replace it with the one that is current, or if you wish you can make a new image.

Currently running 4.19.62 kernel on my WRT32x seems to be running well right now

Edit: https://github.com/solidus1983/luci-theme-atmaterial/releases

I have uploaded the latest version of the ATMaterial theme on github its under V1.4

Instructions:

Uninstall ATMaterial theme from the WebGUI then open Putty or any other SSH client and SSH into the router.

Then issue the following command

wget https://github.com/solidus1983/luci-theme-atmaterial/releases/download/V1.4/luci-theme-atmaterial_git-19.216.06136-9ef2ac8-1_all.ipk -O atmaterial.ipk && opkg install atmaterial.ipk

If you want to uninstall the theme and install the new version with ssh simply use this commandline run

opkg remove luci-theme-atmaterial && wget https://github.com/solidus1983/luci-theme-atmaterial/releases/download/V1.4/luci-theme-atmaterial_git-19.216.06136-9ef2ac8-1_all.ipk -O atmaterial.ipk && opkg install atmaterial.ipk

It will uninstall old version and install the new version.

@Kherby Tried with latest stable ungoogled Chromium for macOS. The results are the same. :confused:

@solidus1983 I'm on the latest build, the one with release date 2019-07-27. I can see this info on the bottom of login page:
Powered by LuCI Master (git-19.207.47477-16f23de) / OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r10618-9437012b9.

I do notice I get two 403 Forbidden responses though:

Try the new one I have linked on here seems strange it's happening with error 403

It works. UI is quick now. Thanks.

@treefiddy

uci set uhttpd.main.http_keepalive=0
uci commit
/etc/init.d/uhttpd restart

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!! THIS DID SOLVE THE UI SLOWNESS , one thing i must ask... why isnt it part of OpenWrt configuration in the meantime until things get fixed ? and second question... why this doesnt bother other people here ? i suffer from it for about 4+ months......

@shm0

And I guess if one has a lot of hosts and/or dnsmasq with a large adblock list in place things are slowing down?

Thanks for your reply , the link you provided to the discussion about the slow UI is the root of the solution indeed. about the adblock assumption its an Interesting direction but I have Adblock disabled, maybe because i did have it enabled once so the list is long or maybe the 10 static routes i have .... weird ... i still wonder among the guys here not everyone suffer from this problem without the above solution....

@Kherby

I don't expirience any UI slow downs with the latest build. I'm using the default config, just disabled the Statistics, Samba4 and igmpproxy.

I have them all disabled and still my UI is slow as hell to unresponsive , but now thanks to @treefiddy its working again ! :slight_smile:

Probably because most users have no issue with the ui, i never had any issue with a slow ui on Win10 edge or Firefox.

Any recommendations on adding another router to the wrt32x to boost wifi in a different part to my home? Coverage is mostly ok but one part of my home is wired but doesn't have much of a wifi connection. Cheers

Buy another 32x?
Makes maintenance simple?
Eventually second hand.

I would recommend an asus RT-AC 86U client bridge mode. Or with a WRT1900acs. I have 2 WRT3200acm routers, one is the American version and the other is the European version. The European version is the worst of all because the limitation of the wireless signal in the 2.4ghz band (channels 1-13 / 20dBm) and 5Ghz (channel 36 to 48 / 23dBm - 52 to 64 / 20dBm - 100 to 140 / 27dBm - 149 to 161 / 13dBm) With the firmware Davic502 enables these channels 149,153,157 but with a very low power at 13dBm
Now in the American version the wireless coverage at 2.4Ghz is perfect (channels 1 to 11 / 30dBm) and at 5Ghz (channels 36 to 144 / 23dBm --- 149 to 161 / 30dBm)
In the European version due to FCC regulation has these restrictions on signal irradiation. Unfortunately so far there is no way to increase the power of the signal because these values ​​(which are the tables) are stored in eeprom memory. If you ever buy the WRT3200acm, WRT1900ACv2 and WRT1900ACSv2 models, choose the American version.

WRT1900ACv2 and WRT1900ACSv1 does not have that restriction.

Hi!

Here is the contents of my WiFi config, I hope this is what you were looking for: https://pastebin.com/raw/dzmUP2j7

Also, I couldn't find an iOS WiFi Analyzer so I had to use a Windows version. The best channel seems to be a moving target, as when I change to the more open channel the others seem to appear there? Very confusing, probably just a software thing.

Channel 11: https://i.imgur.com/2iei2uw.png

Appreciate any pointers you can provide. Switching channels did not work, and I do have WMM turned off because it was breaking my Tuya smart outlets.

this has nothing to do with the client you are using which you state is windows 10 and rather it is the router itself , also the link in which was supplied by @treefiddy and @shm0 shows other people face this issue as well.

@Thychubbz

The wifi config looks fine. Make sure to set the encryption cipher to CCMP (AES). You might trying to take out the option mac address to ensure there isn't a problem there.

There are some pretty strong competing signals that are likely causing some interference, but I would not expect it would knock the speed tests down to 20mbps down and 10mbps up. I have the 3200acm and have no issues getting 450mbps down 300mbps up on 5Ghz and 70mbps down and 100mbps up on 2.4Ghz. The 32x is the same hardware as the 3200acm, so you should be able to get comparable speeds.
What device are you testing from? and who is the manufacturer of the chip? Also have you done speed tests with Android as well as iphone? Please speed test late at night or early in the morning when people are sleeping. Doing this will help reduce wifi interference, and might give an indication on how much of a performance impact competing wifi signals are having on your system.

this is not client related. This issue will not be solved by using another client/browser/etc. I have experienced this issue on the 1900acs, the WRT3200ACM and the WRT32X. All the same. Flashed with default (stock) settings on the latest version of davids firmware. @robocide is right.

Hey. Iam using the lastest image from https://dc502wrt.org/ for my 3200ACM

Works well but..
i cant conntect to my webserver with ssh:
root@OpenWrt:~# ssh -i .ssh/openwrtkey nas@192.168.1.210
Load key ".ssh/openwrtkey": error in libcrypto
Load key "/root/.ssh/openwrtkey": error in libcrypto
nas@192.168.1.210: Permission denied (publickey).

With the openwrt snapshot it works without problem. (Note: I have installed the openssh-client because with the default ssh bin the key file doenst work.)

If i create a new key "keygen":
root@OpenWrt:~# ssh -i .ssh/id_rsa nas@192.168.1.210
Load key ".ssh/id_rsa": invalid format
Load key "/root/.ssh/openwrtkey": error in libcrypto
nas@192.168.1.210: Permission denied (publickey).

Any tipps to solve the problem?

Edit: Solved:
I used this instruction to fallback to the dropbear ssh client:

Thanks for the advice

Yeah, forgot to mention I already done that (Opkg remove the theme and then wget according to your instructions). Still the same. It has been like this since my first flash with OpenWRT and I have re-flashed (the complete image, not just sysupgrade). I have no idea what's going on.

Hi Guys,

I know this has been asked in the past, but what is the easiest way to upgrade and restore any additional packages like dnscrypt-proxy-v2 and wireguard? is there a way to see what packages I installed before the upgrade? I'm hoping there is an easy way to do this with all of the great updates that have been coming out lately.

Thanks!

Will check my end when I am free.

I believe since v19 if you use the "-k" option when doing sysupgrade in CLI it will now save a text file under "/etc/backup/installed_packages.txt" of all user installed packages.

Refer to this link https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/installation/generic.sysupgrade
