I don't recall having had these problems with the stock firmware, as I used it for about 2 months before installing OpenWRT. I never reverted back to stock because I found that my workaround worked well enough and I preferred to keep the features that OpenWRT provides.

edit: I have gone back to stock before, when I was troubleshooting and switching between different builds.

I would suspect the Win7 wired network config. Maybe static IP address not provisioned by the router or something else in the Win7 networking setup.

However, weird things happen when using the wired connection that do not happen on the Wifi connection: occasionally websites will fail to load, downloading large files will start, and then slowdown and completely stop: example, trying to download a iso from ubuntu.com or getfedora.com.

Is this fine or something wrong?

I've seen those in the logs for some time now, but haven't seen a direct problem because of them.

While setuping openvpn server, I get error "-ash: build-ca: not found"  Should I use other repository?

Hi all. I've been having a persistent issue with OpenWRT/LEDE on my AC1200, and I haven't had much luck at all with determining a cause, partly because it's so difficult to come up with a successful search that describes my issues. Hopefully someone here can help me out.

Wifi works perfectly, absolutely no issues there. The wired connection however, doesn't work perfectly, and it doesn't work perfectly in some weird ways that make me think the issue is with the router. It connects without issue at 1Gps, both on a Win10 desktop machine and a Win7 desktop machine, both with hardware less than 3 years old. Both machines and the router are on UPS battery-backed outlets. Each machine will connect to the network instantly, find all network devices, initiate file transfers to each other and to a NAS, and for the most part, surf the internet with no problems. However, weird things happen when using the wired connection that do not happen on the Wifi connection: occasionally websites will fail to load, downloading large files will start, and then slowdown and completely stop: example, trying to download a iso from ubuntu.com or getfedora.com. File transfers between machines aren't "smooth", they run at the max rate for a few seconds, then come to a stop for a few seconds, then run at the max rate, come to stop, etc. What makes it weirder is that if several transfers are running concurrently, they all work. Example: download an iso from ubuntu.com, wait for it to come to a stop, then start a test at speedtest.net, and the ubuntu transfer will start again, only to stop when the speedtest completes. Then start a file transfer between machines, and the iso download will start again. There are no issues like this when using the Wifi connection on the Windows 10 machine, or any other device that connects via Wifi.

This problem has persisted pretty much ever since I installed OpenWRT on this router about 9 months ago, across several different official and 3rd party builds. It took me a while at first to actually notice and figure out what was going on, and when I found out that my Win10 machine worked fine over Wifi, I put it on the back burner for a few months as it wasn't something that was really noticeable for the person using the Win7 machine which has only wired ethernet. Now, the Win7 machine's use case has changed and I need to get this issue sorted out.

The router is a WRT1200ACv2, and it's currently on Davidc502's 09/22 LEDE build, but like I said, this has persisted across multiple OpenWRT and LEDE builds, including NVRAM wipes and running with default settings. Any suggestions?

Update: I borrowed a laptop also with Windows 10 to test, and when connecting to the wired network it worked as expected without issues. Dug deeper into what was different between the laptop and the two desktop machines, and found out that both the desktop machines used Reatek NICs while the laptop used an Intel NIC. Working from the reasoning that there might be an incompatible driver setting on the Realtek NICs, I made sure both were updated to the latest available version, and then disabled all possible options in the advanced driver preferences. Both Realtek NICs then operated as expected, with full speed uninterrupted internet downloads and full speed local file sharing. I then re-enabled each option individually and tested for the effect, and found the offending option to be "Energy Efficient Ethernet". Re-enabled all options with that one disabled, and now everything works as expected on both machines.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.

FYI:

Dnsmasq remote exploits found and patched. LEDE has pushed out updated dnsmasq v2.78.

Hi when will we be getting the new build with the update to dnsmasq?

Hi David I've just updated my 1900ACS router to the latest version however I'm not able to install mosquitto-client I notice its not part of the repository any more is there a way to get it without the repository.

thanks for all your hard work.

I should be able to start working on it tonight... depending on how that goes, it could be as early as tonight.

mosquitto-client-ssl_1.4.14-1_arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3.ipk was in the previous build, so that tells me it failed to compile on the last build.

You can go back to r4707 or wait until the next build which should include it providing it completes properly.

Top man!

Hello!  I have a very strange issue.

I have a printer that connects using 2.4 as that's all it supports.  That printer is unreachable via other clients on the same 2.4Ghz frequency.  However, my clients on 5Ghz have no problem accessing the printer.

Seems like you have "Isolate client" enabled - check in advanced wifi settings.

Hi. Can i skip build/s when updating?
