        Kernel driver in use: ath10k_pci

Hey everyone,

Isn't it time to wake the sleeping beast?

Stable releases with 24.10.2 NSS for Asus and TP-Link.

Thanks for picking up this loose football and running with it. Can you recompile it with 24.10.4 ? I’m just wondering if my NSS drivers for 23.05 or the Candela CT drivers for the atx10 will work.

Hi @KSofen,

You can build your own 24.10.x by cloning this the branch “r7800-24.10-nss” from https://github.com/asvio/R7800-nss/ . Keep your same diffconfig (with the CONFIG_PACKAGE settings for the full CT ath10k driver) and build it as you did for 23.05.

This 24.10.x NSS repo basically reverts the DSA commit in the vanilla OpenWrt 24.10.x and patches it with NSS stuff, so it’s still actually based on swconfig instead of DSA.

The kernels need to be updated. This is a long and difficult task. For your information, Candela drivers were used in my build.

Thanks for this instruction. You have helped me more than anyone here and I appreciate your skills and assistance. If I come up with something worth sharing I will certainly credit you.

Did you copy the beta Candela driver from their official site? Issued 13 months after the release driver and supposedly addresses bugs in the release driver. Still quite outdated but…

The stable version was used, not the beta. As you said, it's still very old. I wish they would officially release a firmware that supports NSS.

Official support for NSS will never happen. Even the 24.10.x “support” for ipq806x NSS is essentially a hack; it disables DSA, reverts back to swconfig, and applies a bunch of NSS patches that can easily break with even minor kernel updates or changes in components like mac80211. It needs developers to constantly refresh the patches to keep it working.

I’ve got the 23.05 version working very reliably and fast. I’m not aware of any security issues and I’ll likely stick with it. I’ve been able to compile simple and also “full-featured” versions that run at speeds at or near the full practical capability of this old hardware. Substituting in Candela’s beta driver for the release driver that is officially a part of OpenWrt was the last piece I needed to completely eliminate issues with fast roaming.

I updated my builds to the latest Candela beta driver. I think it's improved. They work flawlessly on two devices I have tested.

I'm waiting for your feedback.

Using the beta driver reduces the CPU usage to near zero. The offloading to the NSS is substantial.

Not being aware of the security issues doesn't magically fix them.
Hint, there are several. No, they're not going to be fixed for 23.05.x - yes, they are fixed in 24.10.4.

yes its working

The ath10k or ath10k-ct drivers (full or otherwise) don’t contribute anything to NSS offloading; that’s handled by other NSS-patched components in the system. Also, Wi-Fi throughput varies depending on the client devices. In my experience, the mainline ath10k driver consistently delivers better performance than ath10k-ct (full or not).

These?

They do likely use some CPU resources though. I do wonder why Google decided to use Candela Technologies? Anyway, it’s working well.

No, Google definitely doesn’t use any CT stuff in its Wi-Fi products. Where did you get that information? Got a link?

The reason OEM Wi-Fi access point manufacturers achieve maximum wireless throughput is that they receive full NSS SDK and driver support directly from the Wi-Fi chipset vendors (e.g., Qualcomm). However, that support is typically tied to older Linux kernel versions.

In contrast, the NSS support available in newer OpenWrt releases (with updated kernels) exists only thanks to community developers who have painstakingly patched and adapted the NSS drivers to work with those newer kernels. This also means they must continually update these patches whenever new kernel commits break compatibility with previous ones.

This is precisely why we’re unlikely to ever see official NSS support merged into the main OpenWrt branches.

Perhaps I am mistaken, but the original OnHubs with OEM Google firmware (no longer supported) used CT - I had a hardware spec sheet posted on the forum somewhere. Doesn’t matter. You’re probably correct and I’m not remembering the detail correctly. However, the default versions of the CT drivers in OpenWrt create issues that are only resolved by using the standard non-CT drivers. HOWEVER those issue in the OpenWrt repository do not occur when you use Candela’s public release and beta drivers that are not part of the OpenWrt repository. The optional ath10k-firmware-qca988x-ct-full-htt driver that’s in the OpenWrt repository is identical to the Candela non-commercial release driver. Using that driver likewise addresses some issues, but not all the issues with Fast Roaming. The issues in the default OpenWrt CT drivers are the entire reason the community recommended using the non-CT drivers on the OnHub routers. Hope I’m making some sense here.
