Yesterday, after a few hours working with the internet, I wasn't able to go to router setting on luci web and it showed (can not open this page) like out of memory then I had to return to previous version 18.06 and config my router again
I had this problem before when I upgraded from 18.06 to 19.07 and had to downgrade to 18.06 version again
Several MT76 machines had problems regarding MAC address retrieval, and now pull the MAC from the correct locations in the EEPROM, resulting in new MACs.
If you look at the commit history for your routers base (ATH79, ramips, etc.) you might see changes in the DTS files where this was cleaned up.
It's easy to test: echo 0 wherever it's not 0, ie echo 0 > /sys/class/net/eth0/queues/rx-0/rps_cpus
Also check Software and hardware offload in firewall settings (not sure if they work), but together with rps i get 1Gbps NAT with only 1 out of 4 cpus saturated
Roaming configuration is simple, everything you need is on the shot below.
Choose your value for "Mobility Domain" and use it on all APs, select non-overlapping channels for each AP (not pictured)
Upgraded my TD-W8970 from 18.06 and it's working very good, including DSL part.
Thanks to all the developers involved.
The only thing I can't get to work is acme(Let's encrypt) script, my domain can't be verified via http, the latest acme script version installed from repo.
Are you sure we are talking about the same thing? Your next post is talking about the ath10k firmware, which means you aren't using a mt7621 device. I am experiencing issues with hardware flow offload not working, which is a mt7621 device only.
Though I must say your results intrigue me. Only loading 1 CPU core for gigabit NAT is definitely very good! What performance are you seeing without the RPS/XPS tweak?
Yup opkg update solved the problem. Did you update something, my last update was only a day or two ago.
Didn't bring up 6to4 though, will need to look into it when I get home. I guess its the script /lib/netifd/proto/6to4.sh that brings up 6to4 ipv6? If so I'll run it by hand and check what errors I get ...
without realizing there was a difference between ar71xx and ath79 (which I still don't know exactly the difference is.. lol) I installed the ar71xx build on my Tp-link Archer C7 v2 (fresh config). Everything appears to be functioning well.. seems a bit slower.. but that could be cause I'm using unbound as my primary DNS-Forwarder with dnsmask for local traffic.
Anyways, would it make a difference if I upgraded to the ath79 image at this point? Could I do so using sysupgrade and KEEP my settings?
You need to not save settings when switching between targets. If you have too much settings and your router is currently working well then you can wait for the next release to switch.
I've noticed that ath79 runs faster internet than ar71xx on my Archer C7 V2. If you are up to it, you could flash the ath79 without keeping settings and reenter your configuration.
I just did a sysupgrade for Archer-C7-v2 with this image "openwrt-19.07.0-ath79-generic-tplink_archer-c7-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin" and everything is good so far
and I think the 5ghz problem is finally fixed too
