OpenWrt 23.05.0-rc2 - Second Release Candidate

There was an mvebu bug in even 22.03.x that was causing the switch to act as a hub and the LEDs to act as you're describing, but the problem causing it was thought to be fixed in 5.15 kernel (i.e. with 23.05.x). People were using the master snapshots with 5.15 kernel since at least January to work around this problem (see the following thread for a discussion over the last seven months) so I can't explain why you would still be having this problem in 23.05 release candidates. Maybe your specific configuration presents a further instance of that bug?

You have a chromebook i don't have a chromebook i have linux on my system fedora to be specific so i think i can't do this.

But if you able to get that theme upstreamed in luci there are many devs they can help try to initiate a post that you want to implement a new luci look. With proper screenshot.

Your luci really looks pretty modern and cool somewhat a look of gtk4 libadwaita like and more android like buttons i think everyone will appreciate the new look as you know the luci looks old 2014 vibe.
Kindly try to upstream that if you don't mind so we can have a better luci out of the box

There's nothing special about ChromeOS here. It's ChromeOS Flex, to be precise.
The only thing you need is a browser extension to apply the theme. I use Stylebot.

I have zero clue how that works. I need help there.

Yeah, it's my own design language that I've been evolving for years. It's not limited to luci. I've been developing it for other websites for a long time but not everyone seems to like my style choices on the internet. The material design inspiration definitely shows. It also resembles GTK4 because of the rounded cards, sure.

Any reason there is no build for the MR74, like there was for RC1?

guys, today i brick my AX6 after try add nss packages, so now running with Official firmware v.1.1.10

than i do compare before n after, finally i found something interesting

imac mid 2011
openwrt stock wifi only 2.4 can't get 5ghz, wifi 2.4 speed test D/U 120mpbs/110mbps
official stock can connect 5ghz speed test D/U 300mpbs/210mpbs

laptop i5 gen 3 with wifi ac 8265
openwrt with 5Ghz speed test D/U 120mpbs/100mbps
official stock 5Ghz speed test D/U 600mpbs/300mbps

why compare with official show huge different speed, both device using same configuration before n after.

both device test using local speed test from my local nas with 1 Gbps Lan. can't test with isp, my isp only 100mbps, openwrt n official always using wifi 5ghz 80Mhz ch 153 WAP2

any idea what that i miss with openwrt configuration ?? same device only change firmware to official.

Hi all, just an update, I've tried running Snort3 on the new build, using the instructions on Openwrt Snort 3 config but failed to get it running in IDS. When I get to the point of entering /etc/init.d/snort start my network drops and I can only get back onto the Mochabin by connecting via terminal and stopping that service. I made the mistake initially of using the stable release instructions, which also resulted in me getting a load of daemon.warn dnsmasq[1]: possible DNS-rebind attack detected: dns.msftncsi.com errors, but when I then followed the instructions for the development branch it still kicked me out when starting the service, but this time without those errors.

Anyone else found the same issues? It's possible I've just made an error in following the instructions, but asking just in case anyone else faced this problem and able to point me in the right direction?

Yeah, sounds familiar. I have not resolved it yet on my SNAPSHOT bare metal install. I thought maybe it was the 2.5 GbE NICs, but haven't confirmed or eliminated that as the issue.

Redmi AX6 has only had snapshot builds over the past year, right? That is, 23.05.0 will be the first OpenWrt release build for this device? I doubt your issue will be fixed for 23.05.0. If it were me and there were no dedicated threads for the AX6, I'd test different settings just to see if I could find any obvious difference. It very broadly sounds like it's not using the higher bandwidths, but who knows. You'd need to check the bandwidth it's using on the official firmware and compare.

Already support from rc1, I always using same wifi configuration ch 153, 80mhz wpa2

I already use openwrt from kernel 6.1 (snapshot) and kernel 5.1 (23.5.0-rc2) but never have same speed with official stock. My laptop always connect with 177mbps speed with openwrt stock

I'm very surprise when compare with official stock.

I fully understand you, but my main point is that this is probably not the best place for you to mention this issue, because it's unlikely to be a regression in the release candidate; I suspect it has been acting this way since AX6 started getting snapshots. You'd be better off making a separate thread and also submitting a bug report once someone can narrow down the cause.

noted well
i will open new thread after switch back to 23.5.0-rc2

So vlan filtering still not fully fixed with 23.05.0-rc2? That would be a big L for me as I was looking forward to rc2 in terms of VLAN's :disappointed_relieved:

Bridge VLAN filtering is working just fine on my WRT1900ACS v1.

I got a WRT3200ACM but I guess it shouldn't be a difference then, since WRT1900ACS v1 is also mvebu/cortexa9. I'll give it a try next week, I'm still using 19.07.10 so I need to make sure that my VLAN setup will work fine with DSA (trunk port, several VLAN's across two OpenWRT devices).

Vlans work just fine. I just didn't get bridge filtering to work.

Test armsr/armv8

I set the WRT3200ACM up with a new image, installed the packages I have usually installed then build a new image with AttendedSysUpgrade. After reboot I applied the backup from 22.03.

I think the switch started acting as a hub after I installed kmod-nft-bridge.

What Info do you need? How can I send it to you?

I just mentioned you over in the other thread. Maybe someone there who experienced the previous bug can help you narrow it down.
