Hi all,
I installed last RC6 on my WAX202 yesterday and this morning I was locked out of LuCI while SSH was successful.
Even after a POST with the right credentials, the subsequent GET always returned 403.
I tried resetting password with passwd but LuCI remained locked.
Browser private session worked, so I had to delete the cookies for the router site.
Sounds like an known problem that also appears when switching from vendor firmware to OpenWRT on a Linksys WRT. WRT is based an older forked OpenWRT version, reusing the LuCi session cookie name with a non-compatible value.
If you login into WRT vendor admin GUI then flash OpenWRT, the vendor firmware logout will be skipped (which would remove the cookie). If you then try to login into LuCi afterwards, the old cookie is still present, but does not match LuCis value format expectation. That login fails as well, until you manually delete the old cookie.
@StSaens makes sense for more RCs than expected due to the move to nftables.
After a stable 25 day uptime on rc5, flashed rc6 to the other partition on my WRT32X, running great so far. Thanks devs.
There might be a bug in Upnp related to nftables, doesn't seem to be working luci page reports no activity. Starting to look more into it (generally keep it off anyway, but just for testing).
I was able to do an in place upgrade of my A6 v3 router from rc4 to rc6. But when I try to opkg update I get an error downloading Packages.sig. All other files update correctly when this command is run.

Updated WRT1900ACS V1 from 21.02.3 to 22.03.0-rc6 keeping the configuration.
The unit didn't come back up from the reboot, it had to be power cycled.
The power, Internet, and wireless LEDs are too dim to be useable. They are dimmer than before, I can barely see them in a dark room.
Otherwise the unit appears to be working fine after the power cycle.
Edit: Ignore power cycle issue, may have been caused by an attached switch.
Thankyou, I will install rc6 coming weekend and report back.
by the way 5th release had no issue at all in a Zbt-we1326, finally wlan 5Ghz has no disconnects, its been working for 5 days with no issue
That could be browser related. Try logging out of the router in your browser, clearing cookies and site data for your router, closing the tab/window. Open a new tab and log back in and see if the file name is updated. Alternatively try a new browser that doesn't have session data for your router.
Your router might not synchronize it's time correctly.
Furthermore, browsers typically don't overwrite existing files instead a number (1) gets appended to the file name increasing with every file that has the same name.
Hi,
With OpenWRT since version 21. Installed on Archer C50 V1 and V3. Working with Archer C7 V4. No problem at all.
Now the same devices with version 22.03 rc5 and rc6:
Wireless Client Mode working properly.
ADSL connection works fine.
Dual access to the DSL Bridged modem works.
Guest network in both bands tested now and are fine.
The only issue so far:
The client wireless connection (in wireless menu, below the master device) does not show the encryption method. In version 21, it displays for example CCMP AES, but now there is nothing there. It shows Encryption:-
I am sure that the encryption is WPA2 AES.
Thanks to all respective developers who have made this piece of great software. I am very happy with it and its capabilities.
Has anyone else noticed an issue with Adblock package on rc6? This morning I noticed many weird ads on my phone and sure enough I checked Luci adblock and 'blocked domains' reported 0. I reloaded it and it's fixed, but never had that issue before, didn't happen on rc5 for example.
Thank you,
RC6 running fine on my WRT 3200 ACM. Untill now, after 24h on RC6, didnt found any problems, also WLAN is stable for now, only thing I added, as I red in some posts here, is:
installed is, ADBlock, WireGuard with Mullvad setup, Wireguard server to my own Homestuff Servers from which I log in to from outside connections... Transmission, SMB4, blockmount and drivers for USB attatched drives, DDNS Dynamic DNS etc...
All good, happy, and sending greetings to all those involved here with RC6 and upcomming versions for their steady work and improvements...
