Taomyn, I get it. Thanks. That makes sense. It sounds like that when you apply changes to the network, it brings down and up the interface again, which loses the setting. This makes me think that setting interference mode should be done from the networking services routines: when an interface is brought up, check a nvram variable for interference mode and turn it on if it's set.
We were thinking we were going to put this setting into a init script, but now I see that's not going to work. I'll take a look at adding it in networking services and see if I can formulate a patch to submit. I'm thinking this might be something the dd-wrt devs would want to add to their UI: setting interference mode nvram variables that are picked up from networking services.

Cool.
Is this setting related to the "Bluetooth Coexistence" value under WL0/WL1-Advanced in the GUI?

I think bluetooth coexistence mode is different than interference mode. The btc mode is specifically for bluetooth devices. The interference mode however, is undocumented and is driver level interference detection that we've been playing with, settable from wl.
Is wl working for you on that latest build? It was not for me, but than I did a make clean somewhere and rolled again, and now it's working.

Yes it works as in since it was discovered to fix the signal stability in various recent builds, but no in that the setting never stays set unless I use my sleep loop.
I perform 2 30/30/30 resets, one before the upgrade and one afterwards so I hope that's enough to ensure a clean start each time.
It's the one without Samba if it helps narrow it down further - I was not told if the rebuilt 17949 added anything more than Samba so I haven't bother wasting my time installing it as I can live without Samba until another version is released with hopefully the USB fixes.

thanks Fractal. any chance of a openvpn_small compile as well? seems like brainslayer has abandoned his regular builds, and we have many E1000 customers who may benefit.
daveM: attached is an openvpn_small 17952 build using 4.1.2 toolchain. I tested on a WNR3500L so I can guarantee it will not brick, but I cannot guarantee that all the openvpn stuff works. Let us know.
Posted: Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:53 Post subject: Patch for USB fix - Successful testing
Hello,
Here's the preprocessor-based solution to the USB fix that I had mentioned.
The reasoning behind it is that 17841 added support for ext4 to disktype which checks the kernel for features which are not fully supported until kernel 2.6.26 or later. For Broadcom-based users who are on 2.6.24.111 kernel, this means automounting suddenly stopped working.
We have rolled and tested, here on the forums, current revisions with 17841 manually reverted. The testing has been successful, so I'm proposing the following patch.
17841 modified the ext23 function and changed it to ext234. I added preprocessor conditionals to build the old body of the function if < 2.6.26 kernel, otherwise build new version of the function.
In order to use it you have to include linux/version.h. In order to do that you have to add -I$(LINUXDIR)/include to CFLAGS in the disktype/Makefile. I have rolled firmware with this patch and tested it on e3k and WNR3500L.
The dual-mounting is not so much a bug as the way that usb_hotplug.c appears to be coded for multiple partitions. I'm going to look at it some more and Kong's patches again. Maybe the best way to handle multiple partitions is to name them with a label. I was thinking it might be cool to just use nvram variables. usb_mntpoint=opt, usb_mntpoint2=jffs, usb_mntpoint3=store. (see code snippet at bottom for relevant lines of usb_hotplug.c -- everything falls into the else)
I view dual-mounting opt as another problem to look into, so if people are cool with this proposed patch, I'll submit it to Trac.
+#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,26)
+
/*
- * ext2/ext3/ext4 file system
+ * ext2/ext3/ext4 file system - two different functions depending on kernel version
*/
this is changing bin size a little, better compression I am guessing.
I am running the nv60k on my E3000 right now... seems to work well... I am using wl interference 2 to lower noise and its terrific.... I have 100mb/s upload/download and over wifi I am getting 78mb/s down and 65mb/s up... that is great 2.4ghz -N
-Fractal.
Fractal,
Thank you for the good work. This build is running stable with my E3000 router (I was running build 15962). Good wifi range. Keep the good work.

Okay?
Congratulations Fractal continues ..
It would be nice if you do a custom build for E4200 as a dimension where it can get even at 12MB ....

this appears to be working fine with my E1000 v2.1 test unit. thanks!
