OpenWrt 24.10.0-rc7 - Seventh Release Candidate

[RHBH]

Are there any plans to update odhcpd to the latest commits?

I think even snapshots are still using may commits.

I could add the wan port but that resulted in my lan ports not being able to connect to the router any more.

I can confirm that the experience you encountered with the DumbAP configuration is true.I have an XR500 (little brother of R7800) and was curious enough that I replaced the stock firmware with 24-10-rc7 to see what was going on. In the last couple of months I had done a lot of DumbAP configurations with MR6350, MR8350 and R7000 but never encountered such a problem.

Your hunch about "a bug in the whole IPQ8064" makes sense (at least to me). I have a Netgear EA7500v1 (IPQ8064) that had a problem after upgrading to 24.10.0-rc6 (dsa) from 23.05.5 (sw switch). The problem was the wan port and the lan ports were programmed with the same mac address and until I manually changed the wan port's mac address to a different address, I couldn't get on-line. I reverted back to 23.05.5 and will stay with it until the whole thing is clear.

Good to know and hope the problem gets resolved soon.

Hi!
Just updated a D-Link DIR825B1 from 23.05.5 to this RC.
No apparent issues so far. Updating from Luci with ASU works nicely.

Same treatment for a WRT3200ACM and a Zyxel NWA50AX Pro. Everything seems ok so far.

Anyone else here getting opkg update errors?

I removed all files in the /tmp/opkg-lists/ directory, but it's still occurring?

Yeah, I got it...

Looks like it's resolved now!

Hello! Thanks everyone for their work on this project.

Did anybody succeed to upgrade xiaomi_redmi-router-ax6000-ubootmod so far? For me, owut fails to obtain the image with error 500 during build.

ERROR: Build failed with status 500
The above errors are often due to the upgrade server lagging behind the
build server, first suggestion is to wait a while and try again.

Something is wrong with the RC7 firewall in connection with Wireguard, but it could also be a general problem, but I noticed it in connection with Wireguard. My drop rules for the Wireguard interface in the prerouting hook are no longer set so that incoming packets are instead seen by Snort at the end of the prerouting hook, which should not be the case. Interestingly, after Banip was reloaded, the rules briefly took effect again.

/edit// The problem also affects the RC6 with the RC2 it still worked, the ones in between I have not tested. But since RC2 wants to install a new fw4 package, I suspect that the current fw4 package is faulty.

[waynea]

In LuCi > Attended Sysupgrade, the RCs are not shown and it says i'm running the latest firmware. Is that the expected behaviour?
Im on NanoPi R4S BTW

[patrikx3]

how come the first 24.10 rc1 version was pushed on
Mon, 2 Dec 2024 00:22:08 +0100
Shouldnt it be v24.12 then, I am confused.

[Sam-arch99]

It shows 24.10.0-rc7 for me (only rc7) and I'm on 23.05.5. Maybe you need to upgrade your ASU package?

[skuzzer]

It is a bit confusing. I think 24.10 was when they started building it. Hope that makes sense.

[Dante]

See: https://openwrt.org/about/history#branch_logic

[waynea]

tried that, upgraded attended-sysupgrade and LuCi, rebooted, and still the same result. I can wait for the production version, it seems pretty close now

Any update in relation to ipq807x and DSA?

I have an R7800 too - running as an dumb AP. LAN ports and WAN port bridged using this configuration:

config device            
        option name 'br-lan'
        option type 'bridge'
        option ipv6 '0'  
        list ports 'lan1' 
        list ports 'lan2'
        list ports 'lan3'
        list ports 'lan4'  
        list ports 'wan'        
                                               
config interface 'lan'     
        option device 'br-lan.1'
        option proto 'static'
        option ipaddr '192.168.1.129'
        option netmask '255.255.255.0'
        option gateway '192.168.1.1'
        option broadcast '192.168.1.255'
        option delegate '0'
                                               
config bridge-vlan            
        option device 'br-lan'
        option vlan '1'       
        list ports 'lan1:u*'
        list ports 'lan2:u*'
        list ports 'lan3:u*'
        list ports 'lan4:u*'
        list ports 'wan:u*'

Thanks for the configuration info. I edited /etc/config/network on the Netgear XR500 accordingly and resolved DumbAP issue I encountered.

[badulesia]

Is the VLAN really needed for such case? (PS: I don't know this device, just a generic question)

[CorkyDuke]

My drop rules for the Wireguard interface in the prerouting hook are no longer set

could this be related?

[egc]

It should not, so it could indicate a problem
