I can understand the general idea of how that works, but it would likely take me months if not years to come up with something like that myself.
I was quite happy to have gotten my startup script to do what I intended all the time navigating subtle differences in syntax of ash as compared to bash or dash, neither of which I know to any mentionable degree.
Trying out different syntax found in examples and help pages on the internet, I managed to get it working after many days of work improving and looking for syntax that works in ash (rather poorly documented as such, it seems).
So, it did feel a little like the rug was pulled from under my feet, when it suddenly stopped working ...
But all is well now and it didn't take very long at all
Thanks a bunch!
I do still wonder where the findfs command went?
This is the current announcement from an SSH session. The time stamp could very well be the compile time ... only a few hours old:
BusyBox v1.29.3 (2018-10-16 23:30:58 CEST) built-in shell (ash)
This is due to changes in busybox.findfs is not enabled by default anymore in busybox and we do not need it in the firmware, thus nobody missed it, while we use blkid command in our mounting code. _________________ KONG PB's: http://www.desipro.de/ddwrt/

Looks like Kong just compiled a new build. Expect a new thread shortly. Btw, 37410M on R7800 with OpenVPN working great! (100 MB download VPN on Gigabit Comcast)
I have the same issues with BS builds and different routers as well.
Dear Kong, Can you check what is wrong now with GUI update?
Already fixed.
Not completely. I was not able to load the new 10/17 build with Chrome but did it with Edge. The latency is still far behind on 4.9 _________________ Netgear R7800
EA8500
DD-WRT v3.0-r37420M kongat 10/17/18
Linux 4.9.134-rc1 #219 SMP PREEMPT Wed Oct 17 17:05:42 CEST 2018 armv7l
GUI install over r37410M
main router
It's all good ...prolly even better than last couple Kong builds
Updated my EA8500 from r37120M to r37400M to r37410M to r37420M via GUI with no resets.
All working well.
One thing: CPU temperature now reported to 3 decimal places. _________________ ------------------------------------

for some odd reason im looking forward for 3.18 builds....
if soon
Yes please
i am with you, but instead of looking to turn back to a -working but already old-kernel maybe should be better to help kong fix the newer one? Neither i can be 100% sure for my EA-8500 with k4 that it will work fluently, proven that it isnt but i believe its better to help him fix the newer kernel than staying to the old one, even my old and cheap 1043ND is onb k4 without issues, even qos is perfect, its a pitty for my expensive EA-8500 to remain to the old one!

i been talking with and testing many builds with him for months, none are fixing k4.9 qos. the closest was when k4.4 was tried but it was only half as bad (better than 4.9, worse than 3.1. _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

I dont know why .. but my dsl report get sometimes A in bufferbloat and sometimes B ... Of course i know that have some work to do ..
my wan link is 240/24 ( cable ) .. i am in Brazil .. this situation could change the results ?

stop looking at dslreports "grading", its algorithm is terrible and pathetic, look at the actual down and upload latency. be sure hi-res bufferbloat is enabled in settings.
and if possible, make sure ur browser doesnt have a stupidly low timer precision to "protect" against spectre/meltdown (its pointless and makes browsers inaccurate, undo it if allowed to) _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

Good to know it, but how? Never have seen such setting on Mozilla which i am using!
I had briefly tried OpenWRT v18.06.1 on my EA8500 and noticed that they use Kernel 4.14.
Maybe rather than getting 4.9 to work the way people want, Kong might want to move to 4.14 and optimize for this newer kernel. _________________ ------------------------------------
