Running great on my EA6350v3 and EA8500 AP's - many thanks to the Developers!
I will give sysupgrade from snapshot a try tomorrow morning on the Edgerouter X (kids won't let me "fix" the internet tonight-they remember what happened last time with the Edgerouter X )
Why is the NAND section in ath79 not available? The Zyxel NBG6716 should have ath79 since 19.06 according to the devicepage, but the download is not available and gives a 404.
And...I can now share do NOT downgrade an EdgeRouter X from snapshot to 19.07.1, especially without saving a copy of snapshot to restore (yeah - I'm a slow learner...).
I lost all WAN connectivity. After an hour of modem and router debug-reboot-reset-debug-reboot etc., I gave up and swapped in a spare router to get back to the internet and get a fresh copy of snapshot for the Edgerouter X. Meh - here's to having better luck with 19.07.2 when it comes out.
Apologies, but not much to report beyond the WAN interface (DHCP client) would not pick up an IP from the modem. Unfortunately I didn't save logs, and I really don't want to "break" it again - it's in a telecom box down a flight of stairs with no computers nearby, so a a bit of a PITA to debug. I figured it's at least worth warning others what to expect is all.
Stubby not stable - can not get access to /var/etc/stubby/stubby.yml (permision denied)
And another issue is with speed: after a while, the speed drops to 100 mbps - P.S. 19.07.0 has the same issue with speed. Somehow WAN switch become 100 mbps instead of 1000 mbps
