The OpenWrt community is proud to announce the third service release of OpenWrt 19.07. OpenWrt 19.07.3 focuses on security, stability and device support.
Selected highlights of this service release are:
reduce opkg memory usage
allow to configure WPA3 modes in the LuCI web interface
greatly improve loading performance when using LuCI with HTTPS
Security fixes for packages can also be applied by upgrading only the affected packages on running devices, without the need for a full firmware upgrade to OpenWrt 19.07.3.
Nevertheless, we encourage all users to upgrade their devices to OpenWrt 19.07.3 whenever possible.
Maybe a glitch.
In a dumbap i want to assign no firewall zone (unspecified) to the lan interface. This worked on my R7800 under 19.07.2 and on my Archer C7 v5 under 19.07.3 but not on my R7800 under 19.07.3.
The option is there but after choosing unspecified and saving the lan interface icon stays green and the zone is still on lan.
keep up the good work. i have successfully updated my wndr4300 to the 19.07.03. i'm not sure why a couple of my luci status drop down show error. i don't recall getting error with 18.06. or am i doing something wrong or missing packages?
Updated 4 installations... one device failed during flashing, but once recovered (tftp), all is working well.
Ubiquiti RouterStation Pro (ath79, squashfs) - successful. This is my VPN endpoint on my network, uses extroot and a bunch of packages. Everything working perfectly.
TP-Link TL-WR902AC (ar71xx, squashfs) - FAILED TO FLASH. Another user experiencing a similar issue here, and I have had this problem for all sysupgrade images on 19.07.x. This the travel router I use to connect back to my home VPN, uses extroot and a bunch of packages. Required tftp recovery, but after that it appears to be working well.
VirtualBox VM (x86, ext4) - successful. This is just a VM to use as a dev system.
Linksys E3000 (brcm47xx, squashfs) - successful. I don't wifi and this is basically just a hardware based OpenWrt dev box (sometimes I'll use it to try to replicate other users' issues with packages, VLAN configurations, etc.)
On all my v19.07.3 devices I'm having an issues with luci-app-https-dns-proxy where it doesn't show up in Services menu, same as a few other folks in that thread. This was also an issue on v19.07.2 if I manually upgraded luci-app-https-dns-proxy. Updated:also resolved.
One problem with my upgrade: the 2.4 GHz radio failed to start. 5.0 was fine. All settings transferred. That said I am just using as a dumb AP. I am using a TP-Link C2600 and had upgraded from 19.07.2. Downgraded back to 19.07.2 and the 2.4 GHz radio is working.
Devices are pretty rarely backported to already released stable release branches.
The new device will then be in the forthcoming 20.0x release, when it gets done later this year.
If some developer gets interested in the device and the needed changes are minimal, the support might be backported to 19.07, but that would be more like an exception that the default behaviour.
