I managed to install v2raya on my router GL inet-XE300 with stock firmware by following the steps mentioned in
But I was not able to get v2raya run after setting up the servers and routing policies.
I clicked the button 'Start' on the top-left and it remained red and I got the message 'failed to start v2ray-core: timeout: check the log for more information'
I have the same issue. I have the same V2RayA setup running on a GL-MT3000 and it runs pretty smoothly.
The only thing I could imagine is that the Qualcomm processor, network controler, or the respective OpenWRT ( 23.5.4) or v2ray-core implementation struggles on that setup.
Ping's work fine through the V2RayA interface but as soon as I go into http testing, the latency is super high. So, I would assume that some implementation in OpenWRT paired with some network functionality, that v2ray-core is using, is having a hard time.
The method with enabling/disabling IPv6 didn’t help me. BUT, I solved the problem differently:
Disable V2rayA using any convenient method.
Log in to the router management console via SSH.
Delete the contents of the file geosite.dat. To do this, enter the command nano /usr/share/xray/geosite.dat in the console. Press the key combination Alt + T (deletes everything), then press Ctrl + X (exit nano), and confirm the changes by pressing Y (yes).
Enable V2rayA and go to its settings screen at 192.xx.xx.xx:2017, select your VPN connection, and press the CONNECT button.
echo -n "" > /usr/share/xray/geosite.dat
This will create or replace the file with a new one containing empty string-- file exists but has a length of zero bytes.
Unfortunately, it does not work for me still.
I used the command
echo -n "" > /usr/share/xray/geosite.dat
to create a zero size file, and got below logs .
