hello every one,
i have a tp-link archer c7 v5 and there is not the packages kmod-ipt-offload kmod-nf-flow and kmod-nft-offload be cause i want to do flow offloading (i have only 300 Mbps max on my gigabit ethernet ports....)
Is there a way to have these packages, archer c7 can do NAT flow offloading ?
i have this firmware : openwrt-18.06.1-ar71xx-generic-archer-c7-v5-squashfs-factory.bin
Flow offloading is available since kernel 4.14, but OpenWrt 18.06.1 for the Archer C7 is still using kernel version 4.9 which means you have to use snapshots to get that feature.
No, in 18.06.x the ar71xx architecture (to which your Archer C7 v5 belongs) is still on kernel 4.9, while kernel ≥4.14 is required for flow-offloading.
The current master snapshots for both ar71xx and ath79 (the successor of ar71xx) however have been updated to kernel 4.14 and now do offer flow-offloading support. While this will obviously become available for the next stable release (probably 19.01.0), it will not be backported to ar71xx in the 18.06.x branch.
With Speedtest, now on lan the performance are around 600mbps. I have a internet gigabit at home but i can't reach up to 900mbps on lan like provider router(was a Vodafone Station Revolution).
slow speeds may just be a consequence of the 18.x releases , at least for Archer c7 v2 seems to be higher processor usage and terrible wifi speeds, overall slower in my usage then previous 17 branch releases . Depending on your needs stick with stock firmware Archer c7 v5
