2 buffalo routers for me (WZR-600DHP and WZR-HP-G450H). Equivalent settings from my AA builds (no encryption (I'm semi-rural), MAC filtering, similar power settings, etc), and my range is probably halved. inSSIDer 3 confirms with lower signal numbers.
Anyone else seeing similar?
Yep same issue here with G450H. Switched to BB lately. I have two wall-mounted antennas connected to two raspberry which had full signal before but now almost don't get any signal.
Any solution or explanation to this topic? Anything I can do to test something?
Getting a lot of TX DMA errors with recent releaase.
Raised https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/17781 against the 450.
...which was closed as dupe for https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/17565
Same problem with latest release OpenWrt Barrier Breaker 14.07 / LuCI Trunk (0.12+svn-r10530). Wifi is not usable on my Buffalo router. Anything I can help to solve this?
ugh - that's disapointing. My WZR-600DHP (which isn't nearly as impacted) got a couple of ticks better with the final ver, but I was hoping the 450 would be fixed.
Stay with AA on this model for now - the difference is striking.
I use a WDR4300 and went back from BB to AA because of streaming problems. Is this a common problem or specifc to Buffalo?
Just to keep this alive, CC has the same issue, or did a week or 2 ago when i tried it.
Did you guys enable regulatory override?
I will do the benchmark and post it here when I have the time.
How do I do this? I mean this "regulatory override" thing?
I'm having same problem on my G450H since BB. Wifi signal strength is bad, a lot of wifi drop.
Today it started generating warning I've never seen before.

Any update please or a hint how to do the regulatory override. I found nothing in wiki or this forum about it
The discussion might have continued from here.
