yeah with sqm did see 800 peak until i messed around with it

380

Much better! Getting > 650 download and near 500 up.

381

Is it only me or do you get OOM too

382

Seems all good! Although I disabled SQM because it was tanking performance quite a bit.

383

yeah im trying 23.05 version

Also, curious what it is about NSS builds that make LEDs stop working? I had the same issues with my build.

386

What is the procedure for flashing the Linksys MX4200 with OpenWrt?

I'm not very familiar with Github.

Where can I download the factory.bin file?

You have to build it,

During initialization, the script /etc/init.d/mac_setup.sh is called to set MAC addresses for all interfaces:

#!/bin/sh
source /etc/init.d/syscfg_api.sh
SERVICE_NAME="mac_setup"
WIFI_DEBUG_SETTING=`syscfg get ${SERVICE_NAME}_debug`
DEBUG() 
{
    [ "$WIFI_DEBUG_SETTING" = "1" ] && $@
}
DEBUG set -x
ETH0_MAC="$1"
echo "setting up MAC addresses for all interface based on $ETH0_MAC"
display_usage()
{
	echo "Please check switch mac address" > /dev/console
	exit
}

512mb ram seems to suffer a little, after 6hrs it OOMs or under heavy usage it'll happen quicker

392

@MrAlex94 you got v1 or v2?

393

@robimarko

Got a memleak

katb.in/ubaxoqiquge

394

I have a V1

395

Yeah mine seems to reboot randomly after like 6 hours I left it overnight and it's rebooted

396

That is just a one time leak when BSS collision was detected, that wouldn't be enough for a OOM

397

hmm ok, i did find that it does seem to reboot at around 4am for me, otherwise it runs fine

398

Its probably a leak in the firmware itself, which I dont think we can track

399

ah ok, maybe using EU fw may solve the issue, because i use the generic one available in the stock fw, which linksys never uses, they use a script that looks at users country and sets that specific country fw
