running OpenWrt on a TP-Link WR841N V7.1 (Page 4 of 6)

Not even single bridging doesen't work. Which is now the most stable openwrt version for 841nd? i tried the latest rc4, but there is no wifi

Yeah qos works. Install it through Luci (enter qos for search). it will install qos-scripts. Than you have to reboot router. If i correctly remember QOS is in "network". So yeah it can be configured through webinterface. And it works flawlesly.

OK, I removed previous package, installed new one via Webinterface - qos-scripts 1.2.1-4, rebooted - there is nothing new in Network, but when I look into INITSCRIPTS I see QOS stopped - after I press START, router loose connection and I have to shut it down. Any help highly appreciated.

@Boter, could you tell us if you are using all functions - eg. LUCI, Firewall, QOS,WIFI 40+ etc.? Did you applied directly http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … pgrade.bin ?

*update* I will answer myself - installed directly that one, keeping previous configuration, then connect via SSH, installed LUCI as stated here - https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=117933#p117933. I'm going to test QOS on this revision (OpenWrt | Kamikaze (r25513) )

I already found why I don't see QOS on Network - it's necessary to install luci-app-qos. However still I don't know why I loose connection while starting QOS... any idea?

@Sharkys: If you try flashing back to the updated version, try unchecking the "keep configuration files" option. It could be that changes in trunk have broken your old configuration. You could back up your config before you flash, in case you still need to revert.

did anyone tried to use vpn tunnels on binaries from http://oneru.dyndns.org/openwrt/ ????
tap/tun driver doesn't work - i really raise the virtual tunnel interface tun0:

the code is the v-tun based, it really works under any linux, including embedded. The k-mod-tun component is really installed, node /dev/net/tun exists.
The problem is that any attempt to send data using file descriptor of tunnel interface crashes the program. The event of incoming data receive is generated in any case. Trying to read data, we enter the 'forewer' loop! So, k-mod-tun works only for creation and removing interface, no any working I/O procedures available!

Is there any hope to get USB support via GUI in future rc's for this device? Or at least integrated patch?
Because as I see through different forums, many users (me too) buy this low-cost device in order to have 300mbit n-wifi + USB support, but get in panic with patching & compiling kernels.

Long night marathon is over. Finally I have latest trunk build without non-sense (for me) USB and PPP modules (on Ubuntu 64bit running under VirtualBox running on 32bit Windows ;-) ), that allowed me to install also luci-app-qos and still I have 184kB free including LUCI (wasn't possible before on my WR841ND V7.1).
Build (http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/firmware.build#cleanup) with parameter "make image PROFILE=TLWR841NDV7 PACKAGES="-ppp -ppp-mod-pppoe crda kmod-ath kmod-cfg80211 wireless-tools luci" (not sure if crda, kmod-ath, kmod-cfg80211 are really required or are added automatically trough dependences, but I was trying not to brick my router).
resulted in packages "base-files busybox crda dnsmasq dropbear firewall hotplug2 iptables kernel kmod-ath kmod-ath9k kmod-button-hotplug kmod-cfg80211 kmod-input-core kmod-input-gpio-buttons kmod-input-polldev kmod-ipt-nathelper kmod-leds-gpio libc libgcc luci mtd opkg swconfig uci udevtrigger wireless-tools wpad-mini".

While running QOS I'm using in /etc/config/qos following (in some configurations there is "wan" instead of "eth1"), 6MBIT up and down.

config 'interface' 'eth1'
        option 'classgroup' 'Default'
        option 'enabled' '1'
        option 'overhead' '1'
        option 'download' '6000'
        option 'upload' '6000'
+ rules.

Finally after starting QOS I do not loose connectivity, so it allows me to enable startup script, but was working till reboot - then QOS was not activated fully despite of "ENABLED" startup settings in INITSCRIPTS section of LUCI (or "/etc/init.d/qos enable" as described here - http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/qos).  I modded startup script /etc/init.d/qos in the following way (added qos-start in boot section) and now even after reboot it's fine and enabled by default :

root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/init.d/qos
#!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common
# Copyright (C) 2006 OpenWrt.org

START=50

boot() {
        /usr/lib/qos/generate.sh firewall | sh
        qos-start
}

start() {
        qos-start
}

stop() {
        qos-stop
}

And finally - while downloading something, HTTP and others connections are running fine (eg. while heavy download ping to some server went to 900ms!!, and now to 80ms from original 4ms)

Could someone with better experience confirm whether this is a bug or not ? Why at boot it's launched " /usr/lib/qos/generate.sh firewall | sh" however "qos-start" starts "/usr/lib/qos/generate.sh all | sh" ???

I also built image for myself svn 25513 because I needed TTL target manipulation with iptables. I had the same problem and the solution is very simple.
Just go to https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/package/base-files/files/usr/lib/common.awk?rev=6501 download the file in original format (the link is on bottom of the page) and then put it in /usr/lib in the router (I've red somewhere that it is an iptalbes bug but not sure). Then everything works perfect. Have not tested QOS. Hope that will help someone ...

Then the answer is you can't.

I can provide you a (official) trunk package mirror. Which revision we are talking about?
