Please list router model & revision, operating & wireless mode(s) and exact filename/firmware image flashed.
Issues:
• There may be remaining issues for Samba.
Important:
• For issues provide applicable info: 'dmesg', 'cat /tmp/var/log/messages', syslog, klog, serial, strace, tcpdump, wireshark etc.
• Any firewall NAT or WAN issues, show output: 'iptables -vnL', 'iptables -t nat -vnL', 'iptables -t mangle -vnL' and /tmp/.ipt file.
• Search SVN tickets & discuss in forum before opening. Before reporting: reset & manually set up, not restore from a backup.
• Please include operating & wireless modes (e.g. Gateway, Router, AP, CB, WDS, Mesh) & relevant configuration information.
The configuration done manually after a complete reset. Acting as the main home wifi router.
I'm experiencing random hangs. The router stops working, it doesn't route, it's not accessible via ssh/http and it doesn't answer pings.
I set the remote syslog on a raspberry pi but id didn't record anything from the time of the hang.
Before r45632 I tested r45563 and it seemed to have a similar issue. r45563 is the first dd-wrt version I tried on this router so I'm not aware of an older version that doesn't have this issue.
On this ocasion the router booted at "Feb 2 07:31:43". It became irresponsive on "Wed 3 Feb 15:41:01"
Looking at the logs on the remote syslog I found the attached kernel warning related to port 1 on interface eth0. To that port there was a TV connected. At that time the TV got turned off.
But that event happened one day before the router complete hang. So I guess it's an issue that is worth trying to solve but maybe not what is causing the hangs.
Everything else in the logs is pretty boring:
Feb 3 15:31:56 main_router ntpclient[7376]: Connecting to 2.pool.ntp.org [193.104.37.238] ...
Feb 3 15:31:56 main_router ntpclient[7376]: Time set from 2.pool.ntp.org [193.104.37.238].
Feb 3 15:31:56 main_router process_monitor[2341]: cyclic NTP Update success (servers 2.pool.ntp.org 212.18.3.19 88.99.174.22)
I'm affraid this is not enough information to really troubleshoot the issue I'm having.
Is there any further logs I can activate and collect for the next time this happens?

But sticking to an old dev version doesn't seem the way to go.
The existence of these release announcements makes me think devs are interested in fixing issues. So I'm still willing to provide feedback and help on whatever I can

Thanks for the info! I'll give it a try.

Not sure if upgrading to the current release will help, but here's the thread:

Sure ! I hope i didn't imply it with my answer
Not at all, thanks for the info
I installed r44715 and got the same Kernel warning after 24h and 20minutes of uptime (attached). I will go to the latest revision again.
It was worth trying the old revision
This time the WAN and LAN stopped working but I was able to access the router via ssh through a wifi connection.
Last time when I reported a complete freeze I was trying to access the router through a wired connection and didn't try wifi, so maybe it's the same behavior, i.e. eth0 stops working?
The host were the remote syslogd is is also wired, so it would explain why nothing is recorded after the kernel warning.
I had another of the same kernel warning on r44715 with the same behavior: wired connections got interrupted but I was still able to access via wifi.
As it happened only 20 minutes from start I attached the complete /var/log/messages file.
As per kernel-panic69 suggestion I'm moving to r45677 and I'll be providing feedback in the dedicated forum entry.
