New official firmware wrt3200 acm

For Developers
26

those of you with no problems on the wrt3200 do you use ipv6? I suspect the main issues I have are ipv6 multicast neighbor Discovery issues, when devices are sleeping.

27

If you want to try the new firmware I can build it for you. Let me know.

28

There is now someone reporting an issue with the new BLOB. In the 12 days I have been playing with it, I have not seen any discernible effect (positive or negative).

29

I plan to build them, but still haven't found the time to do it.

30

I tried to build on 19.07.1, but the patch I have cannot be applied. On master I build without problems. Could you help me? I have a discreet computer, in about 30 minutes I build an entire image from scratch.

31

I do not build 19.x but it should be enough to update the makefile:

I have bin running the new firmware- for about 5 days now. I have had no problems. I have 5 devices on 2.4 and about 15 devices on 5 ghz I have found it to be a bit faster.

Exactly the same for me. I use it on the master via patch, but I hope it will be inserted directly into OpenWrt code shortly.

35

I build 19.07.1 ofor a wrt32x with this firmware and use it for 2 days.
No problem in 2.4 and 5 Ghz

36

i think from yesterday is in master the new firmware

37

I checked on git and also follow the feeds and there is no hint of a change in the mwlwifi driver. Check it all out yesterday.

i wish i ll have the time this week to compile a custom immage and try finaly this new firmware

39

If you want I will send you mine. I did it this afternoon. It has up to the last commit and new firmware. Let me know. On master you have to install LuCI manually, because I did not build that.

40

I have tried this firmware on Linksys WRT32X, it does not work; perhaps, with WRT3200ACM, but will do that later.

43

WFM on a rango, and has already been reported as working on a venom, should be no difference. Or do you mean the image provided, if so you can try the FW by way of this

Edit: there are images to be found off the Stuff link on my avatar if you need a wrt32x image with this FW baked in(check the configseed first), but easy enough to just flip a link as per the post linked above.

you cannot use wrt3200 acm image on wrt32xx, the wifi firmware will work, but you need the right image for the device
