[WARNING]: This thread is only for feedback on this beta release for developers and the community's benefit.
DO NOT flash this beta release unless you understand the risks involved and specific device recovery methods.
Avoid discussions! Create threads for questions, general problems or use search; this thread is not for support.
Please list router model & revision, operating & wireless mode(s) and exact filename/firmware image flashed.
Notes:
• r41664 or later for SFE NAT (k3.2+), KRACK (k24+), PBR+SFE, CAKE & FQ_CODEL_FAST (reset!), GTK Rekey timer fixes.
• Reset button was broken at 40571, then fixed in build r40750.
• Experimental build option for Broadcom 8MB+ K2.x devices (limited currently): broadcom_K3X_mipsel32r1
• CVE-2019-14899 VPN fix (applicability depends on VPN setup) and GUI toggle. 6920, 6928, 6931, 6932 (WIP 7040)
• In-kernel Samba has been implemented this year and default min/max versions have changed 6954, 6957, with WSD support.
• Broadcom MIPS devices are now on kernel 4.4. N66U/AC66U half memory is fully resolved.
• Local DNS option removed from Services->DNSMasq in changesets 43080 and 43081; ref: #7092
• DHCP and DNS help (English) updated in 43083; ref: #7091
• WAN lease time approaching zero bug on WRT54* devices fixed in 43191; ref: #6456
• Images for WNR3500Lv2 (BRCM NAND flash crash bug) fixed in 43219 (43217); ref: #7098
• WireGuard 1.0.20200712: PBR, Kill Switch, Inbound Firewall, Naming of Peers, Status, Key, Guides. Thanks egc!
Issues, observations, and/or workarounds reported:
• DNScrypt 1.95 can still be used in the GUI but v2 (not compatible) requires Golang and thus Entware. 6246
• WDS does not work on Broadcom ARM devices(only MIPS<->MIPS) & bridge modes on k4.4 devices may sometimes work in some configurations in certain builds but are not supported by the bcmdhd driver. Use client or repeater instead.
• VAPs not working at bootfixed for unbridged VAPs with r40564:40566.Workaround startup command:
sleep 10;stopservice nas;stopservice wlconf;startservice wlconf;startservice nas(there are a few alternatives, search).
• If start-up scripts do not work from USB add a delay (e.g. wait script or 'sleep 25').
• For Broadcom ARM devices missing 5GHz channels, via telnet/ssh: 'nvram set brcm_unlock=1' 'nvram commit' 'nvram reboot'
Important:
• If reporting issues provide applicable info: 'dmesg', 'cat /tmp/var/log/messages', syslog, serial output, strace, tcpdump etc.
• For firewall NAT or WAN issues provide 'iptables -vnL', 'iptables -t nat -vnL', 'iptables -t mangle -vnL' and the /tmp/.ipt file.
• Search existing SVN tickets before opening a new one. Before reporting, reset and manually setup (no nvram backup).
• Be sure to include operating and wireless modes (Gateway, AP, CB, etc.) along with relevant configuration information.

Previous: r44236
Mode/Status: Gateway / working
Reset: no
Issues/Errors: Working well so far.
Uptime: 11hrs 42mins
Temperatures: CPU 66.4 °C / WL0 46.5 °C / WL1 52.2 °C
Repeater to hotspot on 2.4GHx radio, AP on 5GHz: wl0-2.4GHz TurboQAM:Repeater, mode>NG-mixed, Virtual AP wl0.1 bridged (net conf bridged)
wl1-5GHz 802.11ac:AP, mode>mixed (net conf bridged)
Network attached storage available only to dd-wrt AP network, not to those connected to the primary hotspot:
via Services/NAS
enable Samba max vers 3.11
via Services/USB
enable USB options, then attaching drive, viewing the drive info and its device id(/dev/sda1) and mount point(/tmp/mnt/sda1)
via Services/NAS
present the mount point (/mnt/sda1 to the network as Share nameusb_storage public, rw
On each linux system needing to connect to this NAS drive: 1> Create a hidden text file for the Router's login credentials, ~/.usbcred:
in cred file
Code:
username=admin
password=admin-pwd-on-rtr
save file, then
2> Setownership to root, permissions to root-only-rw:
3> Create an automatic at-bootmount of the NAS drive:
add a 1-line entry of the required 6 tab-separated values in file /etc/fstab
//192.168.1.1/usb_storage /media/Ndrivecifs _netdev,vers=3,rw,users,exec,suid,dev,auto,username=linux-username,uid=1000,forceuid,gid=1000,forcegid,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,workgroup=workgroup,credentials=/home/linux-username/.usbcred 0 0
where
value 1usb_storage is the share name set above in Services/NAS on the dd-wrt router
value 2 /media/Ndrive is an empty directory created on each linux system, with ownership set to nobody:nogroup, and permissions to 0777 value 3cifs is the filesystem service used by Ubuntu linux to manage Samba connections
value 4 fs/platform specific mount options to enable full access to your NAS directories and files, including reference to the router credentials file created above
Status/Issues: Running very well
all network systems are running Ubuntu linux 20.04
dd-wrt network also serves a wired internet phone VoIP modem SipuraSPA (ITP4you)
