WRT1900AC - Random reboots

but Davidc502 in post (Davidc502- wrt1200ac wrt1900acx wrt3200acm wrt32x builds) is saying I need to upgrade to 18.06.02. Which leads me to think its not fixed in 18.06.01.

Well, the 18.06.1 git log would be the definitive resource. This fix, but no reason to stay on .1 release, but I would not expect it to resolve the issue at hand.

Seems to me, and I'm only going on memory, the issue wasn't resolved completely until 5 or 6 months ago. Time goes by so fast I could be way off and not know it.

When I search the git log, it appears a patch was created last March which would mean that .01 would have been covered (patched).

https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=5faa9556b1c10a4b21208615bddb7480401fa213

However, it seems to me people were still having issues with .01. This was a post from last December.

Bottom line is, and I agree with you, there is no reason to stay on .01.

its funny cuz for 18.06 and 18.06.01 i was watching the boards every day religiously waiting for their release but 02 i missed it completely

at the start of this post i reloaded, and it took a few days maybe even a couple weeks to really start happening (though i will say it seemed to progressively get worse, as it started happening alot more frequently)

but ill report back my results

thanks all!

somewhat of a side question here
does .02 include the latest mwlwifi drivers and firmware?

normally i wait to see timeouts before installing the latest mwlwifi drivers and firmware from:(https://github.com/eduperez/mwlwifi_LEDE/releases)

  • kmod-mwlwifi_4.14.63+10.3.8.0-20181112-e5e07002-1_arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3.ipk
  • mwlwifi-firmware-88w8864_10.3.8.0-20181112-e5e07002-1_arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3.ipk

when i look at whats installed i see:
kmod-mwlwifi 4.14.95+2018-11-14-81..9-1
mwlwifi-firmware-88w8864 2018-11-14-81413aa9-1

so it looks like the included driver and firmware is newer 4.14.95 vs 4.14.63 and 2018-11-14 vs 20181112

but these seem to be a generic driver and so idk if maybe the ones from the eduperez are better for my device?

my understanding is that as of today (mid Feb 2019) yes the latest drivers are already in 18.06.02

Actually, this commit is the one of interest. If you check the mwlwifi repository there are a few commits after that version, but nothing of interest for this device, which I assume is the reason no-one has bothered to push any of those commits. And there is not really such a thing as generic mwlwifi driver; or, you have the latest and greatest.

Are you using flow offload?

not to my knowledge (maybe a dependency for something else)

Under Luci in the interfaces section see if flow offload is checked.

Have you been running opkg upgrade at all?

not lately, not since .02 install

In general you shouldn't.. so that's good.

:thinking:

It seems likely you have some marginal hardware. I don't see others complaining about random reboots.
