At least it is for me with my internet radio. When I tested it it would find the server but could not see the media folders. I played around with it and disabled and reenabled DLNA and rebooted several times...
And it's WORKING!!!!!
I think I'm hearing the Angels playing music...
Had not tested in several versions as nobody had reported anything regarding DLNA....
But for me on my device I have it working with this new version!!!! Hallelujah!!!

I've found that after you reboot the router you will need to disable then reenable the DLNA server to be able to see your Media Folders. You will need to do this each time after rebooting the router. Otherwise you won't see your media folders. After you disable/reenable the miniDLNA you will be able to see your Media Folders. Working perfect for me doing this now with my internet radio.
Edit: Changeset 36418 may correct this.

Installed r36410-2018.July.28 on my WRT1900ACS_v1 as flash upgrade keeping my configs. The upgrade went without an issue and everything seems to be working as expected. I'll report any issues found.

My Backup button still won't work and console backup won't work either. Checked most of the builds from may to now and backup still won't work.
I am trying "nvram backup nvram.bin"
Returns: can't write nvram.bin
That IP table MUST BE SAVED!
Is it a bad flash or there is something wrong with my box?

I personally haven't ever had an issue with the backup features (I use the GUI and backup settings often, sometimes restore - maybe not the same as what you are doing).
There was a build where I decided to revert to default settings and reapply all my configs which included setting 76 static addresses. For that I found a way to run a command (I also have an excel file with my assignments - name, mac, ip). Here is a link I used to figure it out in case it is helpful. I SSH'd into the router and ran the command (set lease number | set the leases in a big list which has the mac, name, ip | commit). To my delight it worked and I also cleaned up the table so everything was sequential.

This is great info. I usually hesitate upgrading because the in place upgrade doesn't always work for me, so I wind up flashing with an NVRAM reset and entering my settings manually. This will dramatically cut down the time it takes. Thanks. _________________ Netgear R8000

Thanks man! Got myself a nice auto-fill script now)))
BTW: I am ashamed to say that my backup didn't work because of router name had 1 bad symbol I forgot about lol.
Been having wireless issues ever since the May release, at least no hangs or disconnects after 1 full hour so far. My Chromecast will not connect on 5 GHz but does connect on 2.4 GHz, connects on both without any problems if I go back to the Linksys firmware. Wow, I spoke too soon, the disconnects are still happening on my WRT3200ACM and it just killed my ObiTalk 202 connected wirelessly. How do we bump that 6319 ticket up in priority and fix these wireless disconnects/hangs?
Not holding my breath. May 7th was the last time this worked. It is almost august. Kong fixed it on his builds. I have to question now if he is getting to this bug last out of spite for so many complainers including myself.
And BS if you are reading this. I appreciate all your hard work. I really do. But, airprint and chromecast are kinda important. As much as i like dlna, i think more people use airprint and chromecast than dlna from their router.
I could be wrong.
I do love my 2600rt i bought for my parents place... if this keeps up, i see one for myself in the future. _________________ WRT3200ACM V1 r39267 std (03/22/19) OpenVPN client

I don't use either. Printers are ethernet for me. TVs are all HDMI to either PCs or Media Players.
Point is everybody has their idea of what's important. Lot of what you see here is people lamenting about their 5Ghz connections on their smartphones.
So many devices with their own problems it's awful hard to be perfect for everyone. But I got to say that DD-WRT does the best job I've seen comparing it to all the others.

Would think browsing the internet on wifi would be important. Cannot do it for more than 20 minutes without being interrupted by a hang or disconnect. Affects 2.4 and 5 GHz. Can't use a build past May 7th.

Thanks for reporting your results, was just thinking about trying it out. Think I'll sit this one out. _________________ Router: Linksys WRT3200ACM (Winbond)
