I currently have an older version and want to upgrade. in the other partition I have the original firmware. If I want to keep the original firmware, how should I update? actually upgrade to ipenwrt and then to stock firmware, so I understand what to overwrite the partition with openwrt? or upgrade from original firm?
You must return to the Original firmware then you install it again so you have it in both partitions, then you update to the new version of openwrt and keep the original factory in the other partition

Thanks friend
Yup, just try to backup the original firmware settings because even tho you're updating OpenWrt, I do use the OEM partition as storage by default. That means, it'll be wiped out during upgrade.
Does this mean the OEM failover partition is not usable as failover partition anymore ?
No, never said that. I said to make a backup. The OEM partition I'm talking about is not the firmware partition, is the OEM settings partition.

Hello, people!
You can check out #1 for the new release based on OpenWrt 20.02-rc2!
As always, let me know any issue you may have.
Hi,
great news!
one qq, if I upgrade from previous version the settings are keep, right?
Well, it mostly depends on the version... The only big exception is from "pure" OpenWrt to this build and vice versa. I think you should try. Consider doing a backup beforehand, just in case

Anyone using an Linksys EA6350 v3 via PPPoE with G.Fast VDSL2/FTTH/FTTB with 500Mb or + connection or close to it as I do have a Fritzbox 7530 on IPQ40xx but is reported as 300Mb doing PPPoE + NAT with OpenWrt 19.x builds [Solved] Fritzbox 7530 external modem pppoe speed (Custom firware) - #8 by Nocte not sure on OpenWrt 21.x yet
No idea if anyone can help or had similar problems with there IPQ40xx also the fritzbox 7530 is a ARM quad core / 4 core CPU just like the Linksys EA6350 v3 but without a WAN port just a DSL port.
Issue is if i unplug all my LAN and leave my WAN cable via LAN 1 and PC via LAN 2 in this case so i can rule out no traffic is hitting on my FB 750 so if i ping my FB 750 is jumping a little to 22ms

Good evening with this version it does not work to limit the bandwidth through QoS over Nftables.
Any solution??
@francisuk1989 Hmm looks like an opportunity to test all this optimizations... PM me, let's talk about it.
@denisr24 I did not change anything besides updating the source code, so I don't expect it to stop working. But there is something to check out: OpenWrt updated the schema of the /etc/config/network file. There is a chance that some scripts may need an update. That's the only thing I can think of...
No worries, Will send over a PM @NoTengoBattery but i think i read a answer for my problems by installing irqbalance as this is a ARM v7 Quad Core CPU like the EA6300
M10
do ipq40xx have hw offload for nat etc ?(Optimized build for IPQ40xx devices - #337 by M10)
Yes both Software and Hardware, You can find this under Network > Firewall
Two things: irqbalance doesn't actually work on this CPU. I don't understand why, but while it correctly set the CPU bitmask, the kernel won't round robin the interrupts and they'll keep on CPU 0 (unless the bug is already fixed). I have a custom script to balance them manually.
Also, software flow offloading works but I'm unsure if hardware offloading works for this target. It think it doesn't.
Will check it out over the weekend and let you know if is been patched however a user who is running a FB 4040 with irqbalance what is a IPQ4018 (the same SoC) that inside the linksys ea6350 v3 is solves and seems like all CPUs are running and not CPU 0 by looking at the screenshot, see [Speed&Load_2102_2]
![[Speed&Load_2102_2]](https://forum.openwrt.org/uploads/default/original/3X/1/7/17a0193931092cf15af46d7b670fde8a889f874f.png){kind=link}
Only diffrents is that the FB 750 is an IPQ4019 so have no idea if irqbalance will work.
Hi
Can somebody confirm does VLAN on WAN works on this build? Anyone tested latest build on GL.iNet GL-B1300? (I've tried last 19.07-based build, it bricked my router)
I need testing for the B1300, but I own and use the S1300... So, it should work as well. In the S1300, all ports work. Since I use this exclusively, I'm unaware of issues in other OpenWrt versions.
I would love to have a B1300 owner to test and provide feedback to tune the last details that the B1300 is missing.
Just for matter of knowledge, can you paste the output of cat /proc/interrupts?
Mine is:

Taken from stock GL.iNet 3.105 Firmware.
I could do some tests in July 
Hi, does this build able to run on a Frtiz!box 4040 ?
regards
