@ jerrytouille - thanks for the heads-up, just did a clean install and have most settings restored. Just need to setup QOS again but all looks good so far...
Ha - getting used to the update from jerrytouille .... I don't have to bang around on Kong's server to check
DD-WRT v3.0-r33010M kongat (08/08/17)
Linux 3.18.63 #144 SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 8 12:22:47 CEST 2017 armv7l
I played with this some and it seems to be good.
Openvpn server good. Also setup ovpn client and connected to some other dd-wrt units running ovpn server
scattered around the world.... so all that is veddy good.
Probably will never run r33010M on main router --- unbound still borked and Mr. K may
never fix it since I think only 2 ~ 3 of us in the whole world like using it. I am currently running
this build on the EA8500 WAP w/ovpn server ... booted back to it after one of BS nightly builds
borked the ovpn server. Don't know how you fretgear people get by with only one bootable firmware on
your unit --- I'm about ready to yang chains somewheres about getting a multi-boot unit ...
at least 3 ~ 4 bootable -- now I could play w/that
Main dd-wrt public releases have been solid on the EA8500 for a long time now....although I haven't
checked the factory-to-ddwrt.img for 1st install in a long time. I would still advise to always use
the .img from Kong's r31240 or get one from my site.
'bout all I know
DD-WRT v3.0-r33010M kongat (08/09/17)
Linux 3.18.63 #146 SMP PREEMPT Wed Aug 9 19:55:34 CEST 2017 armv7l
looks about same as previous to me.
unbound dead --- not sure why it hangs telnet access when its enabled
ovpn stuff good
I did a reset ... took a few clicks on the apply settings before
the 5GHz would actually come alive on VHT80 CH36.
GUI wireless status showed CH unknown for long time till got it to
take hold ... seems to be working ... just an oddity --- this box prolly getting tired of me poking at it
yeahuh .... but not sure what changes were made.
Everything I use worked ok but --- Recursive DNS Resolving has been broke on last several Kong builds....
...The new DNSMasq DNSSEC validation & DNSCrypt seems to work ok together if you're on the right DNS servers
or just using DNSSEC validation but taint da same as unbound.
I been tinkering with it for a while and I just like unbound --- although if you are using openVPN
client (on dd-wrt) within your network there is NO way to get around using unbound as DNS. No matter
what the ovpn server says your DNS will always be resolved and shown back to your own IP, if you know what I mean.
Actually the only way to get around unbound within a network is using individual ovpn clients or you can
get around it using another router if using DNSCrypt ...alright then I'm just rambling.
To answer your question -- I'm sure Kong just made some minor adjustments somewhere that may/may not affect your config
EDIT:
I usually copy the info (timestamp) off site e.g.-
Code:
ddwrt-Linksys-EA8500.bin 2017-08-09 20:01 24M
This one was easy cause has different date than previous but Mr. K has been known to
change the build several times a day using same revision number.
Once you install another clue would be the number after the kernel version --
Linux 3.18.63 #146
I think below was what got fixed... but it now breaks my ath0 chan 161 LL (-6) selection to chan 157.

The process monitoring fix revealed another bug:-)
I already fixed it locally.
I think I will continue to stick with 32470M for now. It is working fairly well and I have so much shit going on right now in life, I don't have time to beta test buggy builds, as it seems they are presently. Soon I will be back for testing. In a month or two. I will continue monitoring this thread for a good release. Until then......

If I remember correctly you liked to use Recursive DNS Resolving also.
It works perfectly fine with dd-wrt release r33006.
After reading all these post and following all the issue's,
I considerd flashing my LinksysAC2600(m.EA8500) to the latest firmware here avaible, and that would be for now the r330010m
or around that, just placing this forum threath on favorites, to follow any update's or comfirm any problems, hope you guys could help me out leading the way of a correct installed firmware.
as i've done research you first have to instal the factory to ddwrt(so in my case it would be: EA8500WW-factory-to-ddwrt.img)
and then after boot up i need to instal ddwrt-Linksys-EA8500.bin, is this the correct way ?
Im using LinksysEA8500 Non Us firmware, im from EU(Belgium)
And my latest update on the Linksys now giving great results for download/upload speeds, aswell for the MU-MIMO technoligy.
Hoping to get the same result or even better results after any adjustments.
After Instal? Should i configure any settings in the firmware to make it run smoothly,Im just using as a router behind my Modem/Router from my isp, to use as DHCP and giving out other Ip adresses connected to my router then ISP Modem.
Should i configure anything, im not really a proffesion in doing this or any network related engineering.
Thanks for reading, and hoping to get some good responses out of this so i can continue my journey to the world of DD-wrt.
