Router: Asus RT-AC68U
Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r33525M kongac (10/16/17)
Kernel: Linux 4.4.92 #454 SMP Mon Oct 16 21:39:05 CEST 2017 armv7l
Status: Running GREAT for 2 days
Reset: No
Errors: None so far

Btw, I was on BS build (r33492) before I flashed this and gotta tell you that it's rocking. I get better internet speeds and to test it out, I flashed BS build and ran the speed check. Then, Kong's and ran the speed check. Then, went back to BS and Kong's - I know it's crazy as I was bored and had few minutes to burn Smile In all my tests, I did not reset and flashed it from the GUI.

Consistently, I get 115+ Mbps upload in Kong's but it varies anywhere from 90+ Mbps to 115+ Mbps in BS. I am not sure why the difference is but not complaining as I am happy with Kong's Wink

Using this build I have been stable for days, however I noticed that my DirecTV Now kept dropping out of 1080P streams pretty frequently. I had attributed it to possible congestion with DirecTV Now initially, however I finally went and ran a speed test. Three tests in a row showed me capping at 14Mbps down, but getting about 37Mbps upload. Having read some other threads and already knowledgeable on some recent changes in these builds, I went and changed nothing but disabling SFE. My download speeds immediately went back to 203Mbps (I pay for 200).

These tests were run over direct LAN connection, so WiFi is out of the picture (but has been stable for my phone and tablet including WiFi calling). I like all the speed benefits I'm reading with SFE, however it seems to be hurting my network currently, so I am leaving it disabled.

My router is a Netgear R7000 and I have been on each incremental build from Kong for the past few years with minimal issues. This post is an FYI for others to check if SFE is affecting them in case they didn't realize it, and also to bring it to Kong's attention as a potential issue with these builds.

Router: Linksys E3000
Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r33525M kongac (10/16/17)
Kernel: Linux 3.10.107 #15794 Fri Aug 25 11:57:59 CEST 2017 mipsarmv7l
Status: experiencing reset problems
Reset: system restarting about everyone 4 to 6 hours
Errors: not logging

Running very basic feature set.

Upgraded from very old v24-sp2 std 14929 as discussed here - https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=87870&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30

Build appears more stable since I pulled back clock speed from 480mhz to 400mhz. Testing ongoing. Was also seeing random, very high CPU loading (50%+) as reported by status tab.

If there is anything I can contribute (Logs) etc to help, please advise.

complete lockup just now - no wireless was working, dhcp didnt respond - required full shutdown - restart ... monitoring behaviour ...

I'm aware of the dropping issue, I pulled in a little fix for the driver, maybe it helps, the KRACKATTACK fix should not cause this issues as it only influences Client Mode.

I also fixed a few other issues, that I experienced with the latest build.

Will you be checking in the binaries into the SVN repo? I can give it a go.

But from my own builds, which is using working binary drivers for the wireless chipset, I experienced WiFi issue when I build sources updated to r33586 from r33570. The only change that made any difference from what I can tell, is the propriety Broadcom ‘nas’ AP utility that was supposedly fixed for the KRACK vulnerability.

Thanks Kong!!

Status: error

Hello,

After 2 days and half uptime freeze again, this time I haven't been able to capture the logs so I don't know if it is a out of memory problem like the other times.

Kong could you please give me some pointers on how I could troubleshoot this ?

I've seen this in the kernel messages, but having 3 bads blocs shouldn't be a problem no ?
Code:
Scanning device for bad blocks
Bad eraseblock 597 at 0x000004aa0000
Bad eraseblock 600 at 0x000004b00000
Bad eraseblock 845 at 0x0000069a0000


I don't use JFFS, here the processes running on the r7000:

[...]


I see you only have one guest net running, I usually have a guest on both radios and it runs stable. Can you check if you also enable a guest network on both radios if the issue is still there, not sure if some status checker does something stupid if you have 2 physical and only one virtual interface. Your output shows memory runs out, no flash chip issue.


Hello Kong,

I've enabled a guest network on both interfaces now. The router didn't crash for a couple of days (but there was almost no traffic), today the router was much more used, and it froze.

From the traces captured, it started to have trouble with nas process, then eventually the router froze with oom errors (like the previous traces).

Here some example of the nas trace errors.

I'm going to try the latest build now to see if that improve something.

Status: Working, kinda
Reset: nvram/
Errors: Random 5G interruptions, now complete 5G loss

5G interruptions were happening to me in 33435, so decided to update to 33525. Still happening on 33525. Interruptions would not take signal away. My phone would register no internet, and web pages would kick DNS issues. I forget the error code it would produce. Within 10-15 seconds, my internet would return. Happened every 5-10 minutes.

Currently the whole 5G dropped out. System > Wireless shows just my 5G SSID, no option to select my 2.4 SSID. Under Wireless tab it just shows 2.4G, no signs of 5G.

Wired works on my PC. My IPhone and Galaxy S7 are currently connected to the 5G SSID.

Syslog shows nothing around this time.

My experience with Kongac Build 33525M with three R7000s on 2 different sites has been solid.

I would document all setting on your R7000; then telnet/ssh to the R7000 and erase nvram with these commands...

erase nvram
reboot

Manually configure your R7000 and also disable SFE.

I might try that tomorrow. Today, after the router glitch, is the only day my phone did not give me the dns error. May be a coincidence, but I'll monitor.

Router: Netgear R7000-100PAS
Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r33675M kongac (11/03/17)
Kernel: Linux 4.4.95 #472 SMP Fri Nov 3 23:27:37 CET 2017 armv7l
Status: Working for about 15 hours at a time
Reset: Seems to work ok if I toggle power
Installed: dd-wrt.K3_R7000.chk via Netgear firmware update page on OEM admin sw.
Errors: Each of the past two mornings after installing, the entire network goes down (no one can connect to internet or each other). Can't connect to the router admin via browser or ssh.

I tried using the WDS/Connection Watchdog putting 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 into the ip address box, but that didn't appear to help this morning.

No way to view log that I know of after rebooting, so I don't know if there's a way to check if syslog has info on what the issue might be.

When it's working, it's fast though.

Access restrictions don't seem to work, but that's not a huge deal for me.
