The mvebu issues with rc1 was lost connection. I use a Linksys WRT1900ACS v2.
There was a discussion in the rc1 thread where I believe they identified the cause of the connectivity issues. I'm a novice myself so wasn't able to follow the details, just hoping it'll get fixed in a future release.
I have not had any WiFi 5GHz issues on mine. Haven't checked latency as most of my network is hardwired other than a couple iPhones and a ThinkPad X1. I didn't think those WiFi commands were needed anymore at least not on the WRT32X (or WRT3200ACM), but maybe on yours.
rc2 seems to work fine on TP-Link Archer C7 (v2 and v4) and gl-inet AR750. Although I can't get iPhone tethering over usb to work (ipheth driver). I tested on fedora (kernel 5.12.9-300.fc34.x86_64) and it worked fine there. rc2 has 5.4.119, latest upstream is 5.4.124. Not sure if it will be fixed in that version though. Will next rc or final release still have a newer kernel or are we stuck on 5.4.119?
I am using FritzBox 4040.
When I used OpenWrt 19.07 I not have any problems with LAN speed - it corresponded to my provider's tariff package 1 Gbps.
After update to OpenWrt 21.02 LAN speed decreased by 30% (see attached screenshots).
As I can see, for some reason in 21.02 only the first core of the processor is used to work with the network, and when its capabilities are exhausted (core gets overloaded), the speed drops.
Does anybody have the same problem?
Are there any plans to fix this?
D-Link DIR-860L b1 here, it seems that the WiFi has blackout issue, which means when you play a online video, it's possible the playback will stop when the issue occurred.
Hopefully it's there by now, so opkg update and opkg install luci-app-samba4
I'm not sure if mwlwifi ever received a stable state. Marvell abandoned their upstreaming efforts and @Kaloz finally stopped developing / maintaining it.
Your problem requires some bisecting (hopefully just the mwlwifi driver) but you're probably on your own there.
Please provide output of:
uci get uhttpd.main.redirect_https
uci -c /rom/etc/config/ get uhttpd.main.redirect_https
Please also try curl -v http://192.168.0.1 on your computer and provide the output.
Please provide a screenshot.
Runtime removal of packages shipped with release won't free any space as they are part of squashfs filesystem that can't be modified. Removing only marks such files (pre-shipped) as deleted and "hides" them. Use ImageBuilder to build your customized firmware.
Please try some recent snapshot again. It that problem still occurs, please provide a full error message. If that is about luci-app-samba4 then it may be fixed by now (some people in this thread confirmed that).
Those names come from Linux kernel which takes them from .dts files. I believe upstream convention is to name ports as they are labeled.
We could rename default L3 interface from lan to something like localnetwork but that would be terribly confusing and against all existing documentation.
Your updated config looks totally fine to me. So what exactly happens? Please provide output of ifconfig -a and brctl show.
Please provide output of the ls /sys/devices/platform/1e140000.pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/
@nbd: what's the state of mt76 in the 21.02 branch / rc2 release?
