Hi can any body tell me how to make this permanent have followed the following directions but as soon as you reboot reverts back to standard CPU rate


nvram get clkfreq (get current clock rate)
nvram set clkfreq=1200,800 (OC cpu/ram stock)
nvram commit && reboot (write change & reboot)
Changing ram speeds to anything other than 800 appears to default the ram to 400. CPU OC is dependent upon you hardware.

It is:

nvram set clkfreq=1200,800
nvram set overclocking=1200
nvram commit

And then hit 'run command' nothing else, after that manually reboot through the GUI.

Check the CPU speed in the 'router' tab within the 'status' tab'.

I am running r47381 and the above works for me.

To get optimal support it is helpful to always state not only router model but also build number.
See the forum guidelines with lots of useful information about where to find builds, how to post etc: https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=324087

Also in this case buildnumber can matter as overclocking has seen some changes e.g. see:
https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=324087

But for a recent build the instructions of @Mr R Design should work Smile

If it does please mark this thread as [SOLVED]

Someone did not take into account syntax. It's only going to run the first command like that, unless something was changed with the commands window.
