Your findings seem consistent with other feedback. The VAP issue only shows when bridging.

I am using this bridged setup to isolate private network from the guest network as described in this guide: https://flashrouters.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000967873-How-To-Setup-a-DD-WRT-Guest-Wireless-Network-On-Your-FlashRouter Should I be using https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Guest_WiFi_%2B_abuse_control_for_beginners instead? Is there any reason why the latter would be less secure (from a network perspective) then the first?

For the setup using the wiki, should i be specifying two separate subnets for 2.4Ghz guest network and 5Ghz guest network? Wouldn't this be a problem if I want to have them set to same SSID [both wl0.1 and wl1.1 set to SSID 'dd-wrt_guests' for instance]?

No it is ubbridged (in both cases) but your question is beside the topic please start a new thread for your question

@Briefcase yes you’re correct. That’s exactly the portion of code that I’ve reverted. Seems to work for for the Northstar prototype boards whereas the latest code broke all the VIF configuration.

I’ve also raise a ticket as well:

https://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/6395

BrainSlayer denied that those codes are the root cause tho. He claims that newer drivers configured the MAC addresses using the new algorithm but it doesn't look right to me tho. The old codes looks correct.


quarkysq thanks for your solution it worked on my configuration on a R7000 I'm testing with Build 37715M (was on 36070M). I read that Kong and others don't have a problem with when using a "simple" unbridged VAP. But this is not practical for me and probably others when using VAPs with VLANs. All my VAPs are Bridged to VLANs and the changset 36366 breaks the way I need the networks with VAPs. I hope the Developers reconsider.

Thanks.

Netgear R6400v1, DD-WRT v3.0-r37715M kongac (11/14/18)
Same issue as others; want to bridge together a 2.4GHz VAP and a 5GHz VAP, but couldn't connect/authenticate to VAPs that are bridged together. VAPs work in unbridged mode, but that puts the 2.4GHz VAP and the 5GHz VAP are in different subnets.
Using quarkysg's wlconf, I can successfully connect to the bridged VAPs.

Use case for bridging both VAPs: using QoS to throttle both VAPs at once, instead of throttling each VAP independently. It also simplifies firewall rules.

Another purpose of this is to roaming between 2.4 and 5 Ghz. When the signal gets low the client can automatically switch to 2.4.

That’s how I use VAPs as well, bridged to the main bridge. I would think almost all typical users will use it as it is, I.e bridged to the main bridge interface. Expecting a typical users to configure the VAP in unbridged mode is a bit too much of an ask.

Therein lies the issues that needed to be looked into and fixed.

@Quarkysg, I use your patched wlconf (and your patched shortcut-fe.ko module) on my Netgear R6400v2 with the latest Kong build 37715 and can confirm that it works, without it I can not connect to the VAP, with the patched wlconf it starts to work.

@Quarkysg:

I too spent some time with my router R6400v2 (same one as egc) on 37715 and here's my config, followed by my observations:
2.4GHz + wl0.1 + wl0.2
5GHz + wl1.1
SSID1 in OpenDNS (Only 2.4GHz and not using VAP) ...in br1
SSID2 in Open VPN (5GHz + wl0.1) ... in br0
SSID3 direct to internet/ISP (wl0.2 + wl0.1) ...in br2

Following lines in startup:
sleep 10
stopservice nas
stopservice wlconf
/opt/wlconf/wlconf eth1 up
/opt/wlconf/wlconf eth2 up
startservice nas


This is working for a few hours and has lasted a few reboots. Twice I noticed that wl0.2 was vanishing and reappearing on WiFi Analyzer (Android phone). I manually ran your lines on telnet but this behaviour seemed to persist.

EDIT/ADD: Observed with various permutations. Put wl0.2 in all bridges - this is not very stable. Vanishes and reappears.

Which build?
Which Router?
With or without Quarky's patch?

Same for me. For details see thread "New <Kong> Test Build 37845 11-25-2018" https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=317610

Anyone tried this new build on a R7000P using bridged VAP?

It's still broken on my setup with 5 SSIDs. Build 3845M still has in effect quarkysg's work-around to keep my client's connected.
