Hello,

I have an Asus RT-N18U router.
I recently upgraded the old firmware from "DD_WRT v24-sp2 (01/04/15) std - build 25760" to the firmware "DD-WRT v3.0-r40559 std (08/06/19)" which is the latest one for this type of router.
Everything works good except that I do not have the option to enable the jffs2 support on the Web interface. This option is completely missing.
Before I used that option successfully and had a small html website on the router. I used the flash memory of the device and did not have any aditional storage.
After the upgrade, which I made it directly from the web interface, I have exactly the same settings as before, except everything related to the jffs2 options and settings.

Is this version of firmware DD-WRT v3.0-r40559 std (08/06/19) not supporting the jffs2 option on this type of router ?
Should I return to a previous version of firmware if I need jffs2 support? In this case what version is supporting jffs2 option ? I do not want to attach any usb device or mount external CIFS or NAS resources. I want to use as before the flash memory of the router.

Anyway, I want to thank and congratulate you for this amazing software. My router worked great 5 years without any issues. I even had uptime of 190 days.

Many thanks in advance.
Have a nice day,
Bogdan

Do not use the router database.

Newer builds are larger and for some routers do not support jffs2 any more.

Coming from old builds you have to reset to defaults and set up manually especially as the compression for jffs2 is changed, but as said it might be that jfss2 is missing for your router in newer builds

Another option might be to add a ext2/3/4 formatted USB stick and mount it as /opt.
