Hi,

I've tested your image on my E750v2 and it works just fine. However, I want to install a couple kernel modules to tailor the image to my requirements. Are you willing to share the build config for your tree?

Best regards
Niklas

Thank you very much! I was able to get a working build out of this.
Unfortunately I cannot access the submodules for both MCU packages, so that my build lacks support fo the display.
Can you fix those references or tell me what I need to do, to get the 23.05 packages working in 24.10? First time I've built openwrt source code. :see_no_evil_monkey:

I believe the submodules are there just because I want to have a one click build.

you can follow this steps and then install the packages. They should just work, although it says for a different version.

Worked like a charm, thank you!

Hello,

Thank you for providing your build; it worked for me with Modem Manager using QMI Cellular I couldn't establish a connection. I attempted to set up WireGuard by following this tutorial: Running WireGuard on a Router, but it didn't work. Additionally, I followed the instructions for screen, but I can't deactivate screens 2, 3, 4, and 5.

I'm new to all of this, and any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

The build from @hnws works perfectly as is and is a great feat - thank you @hnws for your time and dedication to free the GL-E750 v2.

But I have the same problem with WireGuard. I have started over four times from scratch and tried different settings, but it just does not have any throughput. It looks like a DNS issue perhaps from the experiments or perhaps something to do with MultiWAN Manager, a package I am not very conversant with.

/etc/config/network

Use custom DNS for wwan:

Firewall UI looks like this:

Then I have to restart the device.

After that, it should work.

Thanks, but that also failed - it appears like the WG Interface was blocking all traffic, even when removing the Firewall Rule and when I deleted the WG Interface suddenly the traffic worked again.

Now I managed to get it working. To replicate for anyone else who struggles - I am not sure which one of the two or both points did it and I am not about to go and find out, for now :wink::

1) Network > MultiWAN Manager > Interface

Edit "wanb" to 'enabled'. Click 'Save & Apply'

*optional, change the IP's to something less privacy invasive - also on "wan".

2) Follow the instructions below and VERY IMPORTANT, DO NOT click 'Save and Apply' until you have completed all the steps. Also, name your Interface 'wanb' instead of "WGINTERFACE"

Restart and et voila, she works.

3) Optional Privacy Enhancement (after the above steps):

install >> ‘https-dns-proxy’ && ‘luci-app-https-dns-proxy’ and select a reputable privacy respecting DNS provide, to encrypt your DNS-queries with DoH

Thank you sir about your help !

One last thing there is anyway to disable the screens 2,3,4,5 when i do it from settings doesn't work .

Thanks for contributing, guys — my router works great now! I tried for a long time to get my device working!

Did you have any issues with the 5 GHz Wi-Fi signal strength? Because at 2.4 GHz the signal is strong, but at 5 GHz it’s quite weak. I keep my router at the same distance when testing both.

Also, does anyone know how I can get the MCU interface working so I can disable the show screens?

yes, I also have an issue with low 5GHz WiFi and editing the MCU.
