OpenWrt 18.06.1 Build for TP-Link TL-WR841N(D) All Versions

Hello @patchez.

I had a problem configuring DDNS...
Look:

Failed to execute cbi dispatcher target for entry '/admin/services/ddns'. The called action terminated with an exception: /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/ddns.lua:57: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value) stack traceback: /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/ddns.lua:57: in function 'service_version' /usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/ddns.lua:60: in function 'service_ok' /usr/lib/lua/luci/model/cbi/ddns/overview.lua:11: in function 'v3' /usr/lib/lua/luci/cbi.lua:17: in function 'load' /usr/lib/lua/luci/dispatcher.lua:298: in function </usr/lib/lua/luci/dispatcher.lua:296>

Do you know what can be the problem?

I tried to configure DDNS using command line and discovered another thing.
No-ip module (wich i use) wasn´t included ...

Take a look:

" # CONFIG_PACKAGE_ddns-scripts_no-ip_com is not set "
" # CONFIG_PACKAGE_luci-i18n-ddns-pt-br is not set "

(I´m from Brazil)

When you have a spare time can take a look too?

Thanks and sorry for my bad english.

That seems like a bug, but it could also be a configuration issue of DDNS with the new version. You could try reflashing the firmware without preserving the old configuration settings and see if that fixes the issue.

If that does not work, use previous version.

Hello
From what I see you are already starting to compile your own custom builds, I just finished compiling OpenWrt 18.06 for my WR741ND making use of the script published by @patchez I removed some packages I did not use and I managed to add SQM scripts extras instead of QoS, keep everything else.
Modifies the. config file and executes the script; I use Linux Mint but you can do it on Windows using Linux on a virtual machine.

Hello @xhaka.

What packages did you removed?
Do you keep ipv6?
If you keep ddns, could you ser if it works?

@patchez

I tried to reflash from scratch. No success. Do you have another sugestion?

Juliano

Not sure what is causing the issue. Similar bug was reported on 18.06.0 RC2. It may be an issue with the lua source code of the DDNS package that was not patched on the release version.

For the moment, I suggest you to go back to my 17.01.5 build.

Sorry its a bit out of topic.

I failed to safe keep my "art" partition after following this instruction https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr841nd#dbm_tx_power_hack_v9

The signal range is greatly improved and yet still maintain its stability too. However, nobody mention that the wifi bandwith will be reduced to max 40Mbps (maybe only for my case). Its great for wifi repeater/range extender etc, but now I want to regain its max bandwith.

Can anyone here share the original art partition of TL-WR841N_v11

I promise to re-use my own MAC address :v:

@patchez

Ok, thank you, i will try.
It have no-IP support or it's the same as yours 18.06 build?

Thanks.

Not tested, but no-ip shows on web interface.

Ok, i will try and let you know.

Thanks @patchez.

@julianocs
Have left iPv6, I have only removed wol (wake on lan), Qos and DnS and this has allowed me to add extra SQM script and a package to use my routers in wireless bridge (relay) :grinning:

no-ip.pl is not the same as noip.com. However, it is possible to use generate your own update URL (https://www.noip.com/integrate/request) and use it with custom URL in the standard DDNS package so it's not really necessary to add the noip package.

@Per

Can you help-me how to do that?

Juliano

Check the example URL on noip.com and replace username, password and domain name with [USERNAME][PASSWORD] and [DOMAIN] like in the example URL you get when you choose custom. IP is optional.

@Per

Thanks for the tip. I didn't knew.
I will try when i get home.

@patchez

I Installed your build 17.01.5.
Everything ok.

Thank you.
Juliano

@Per

Your DDNS tip works.
Thank you!

@patchez

Your 17.01.5 build (SQM) keep working without problems.
:slight_smile:

A question about build script:

Where i can found the base image links list?
Ex:
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/archive/v18.06.0.tar.gz
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/archive/v17.01.5.tar.gz

If i want to make a build from snapshot , for example, how do i search the correct file?

Juliano

I got the official releases from GitHub.
Alternatively, you can get the official release with git.

git clone https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt.git
cd openwrt
git checkout v18.06.0

For a specific snapshot it would be something like:

git clone https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt.git
cd openwrt
git checkout tag-name-or-commit

@julianocs
I have compiled my last snapshot using

git clone -b openwrt-18.06 https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt.git
cd openwrt

And you know everything else :wink:

Now that v18.06.1 is released, can somebody pack this set with "SQM" and "Adblock" mainly?

Does it have pppoe and ipv6? Also, adblock has a limited set of lists due to low space? Can someone pist available space?

LE: I saw available space.
