Thanks for the reply.

I plug the iphone(iOS14) into the windows 10 desktop computer and the USB tethering works, but it doesn’t work on my TP-Link Archer C8 V1.

I have the Linksys WRT-1900AC v1 (r44467 24/09/2020)
iPhone 11 Pro 512GB iOS 14.01

iPhone tethers correctly, IPv4 & IPv6 address's both showing in router sys-info however for some reason it will not allow "other devices" to connect to the internet via WiFi &/or Wired.

I was using iOS 13.7 & all the previous firmware(s) & always working 100% perfectly.

If i connect my old iPhone 4S 32GB to the router using tethering mode, the internet works 100% perfectly.

It seems this is an iOS 14 issue & NOT a modem/router or DD-WRT firmware issue.

Thethering works fine when connected to a computer directly (Apple Laptop etc)

Has anyone been able to get a reliable fix?

It seems unclear at what is broken and why this works.

Maybe it works for iOS but what else breaks?

On the bright side, it is easy to patch, I just patched my own DDWRT Smile

Thank you, blkt for incorporating the patch! Does anyone has an idea for when the build is scheduled? Would be really great to see it out soon. I’m really excited and can’t wait until someone finds the time to compile it.

PS: I tried to do it myself for two weekends now and failed epically..Sad

I did not do anything other than find the libimobiledevice thread back in October (see my first reply).

...then randomly checked libimobiledevice until November when they discovered a workaround.

Patch was submitted by egc and the changeset is by BrainSlayer.

Edit: 12-08-2020-r44944 includes the iOS 14 workaround.
