If you can beat this, post your screen snip.

I have went more than 365 days (i.e. 1 year) for sure but I doubt I reached nearly 3.5 years like you got, especially given there is a reasonable chance ill have at least one power outage before reaching 3.5 years. I don't get power outages all that much, but it does happen from time-to-time.

also, I doubt I will beat your uptime given it's probably a good idea to update DD-WRT occasionally for security fixes that turn up. so I guess how long my uptime is will mostly boil down to if there are any fairly serious security issues or not that needs fixing. because in general I imagine most security fixes will probably be related to WiFi with OpenSSL(?). so if there are some non-critical OpenSSL security fixes that turn up, I am in no rush to update DD-WRT. but I am hoping ill be good for at least a year after I updated not long ago for the Fragattack fixes (seems May 13th 2021 builds or newer includes this).

One thing that is needed would be usage... If I plugged in one that sits idle (excluding power outages) that is different than one that takes a full load of traffic and features.

Either way that is a long time...

The fact that you had that device vulnerable to KRACK for 1,288 days ... Rolling Eyes

and few others....
Laughing Laughing Laughing Laughing

yep tell me about it Razz Razz

impossible for me, as updates are 'at least' once a month...

to be precise photoshop does a miracles...too

i had almost 300 days too 289 ...but plain use nothing special on DIR-615 v H2 rock solid unit that was...than the longest i think was on old Kong build one router that i 'set it forget it' at one local station...was 500 ish

Good point. but I would assume, unless otherwise stated, that it's a general use router for internet(LAN)/WiFi access.

but I can't really see DD-WRT crashing under normal use situations. so it will probably go nearly indefinitely short of power outage (or hardware failure like router itself or power supply dying) as I figure, off the top of my head, if it can make a year of uptime, it's probably not going to act up.

Device based on very old firmware. Uptime is minor parameter in this situation.

I once ran an ethernet-to-ethernet router on a 4 year uptime, that consisted of a 80486 PC running FreeBSD with 2 network cards in it. One card plugged into a secured private hospital network and the other card plugged into a secured private doctors clinic network. It was used to pass electronic charting information for patient records. I had actually forgotten I had installed it when I was called back 4 years later to install a new e charting system that used https over the Internet. It was supposed to be a 30 day stopgap for them while they bought a "real" router. That was when I was younger, more inexperienced, and did not understand how badly that doctors offices will scrape the face off every nickle before they let it go.

Nowadays I would never offer anything short of "the most expensive machine in the entire hospital that goes ping" to a doctors office.

First, to quell all of the dis's...
It's a Repeater/Bridge connected to an EVL3 board in my Honeywell Vista 20P as a backup connection paralleling the GSM LTE 4G used by the monitoring station.

It's power supply is the alarm's backup battery.

There's no access to the router except from my LAN, so it can be as vulnerable to KRACK or every other malicious piece of crap and it doesn't matter.

Snipped this about 25 minutes ago:

As an RB, it does matter. If it's wireless interface(s) are enabled at all, it matters.

Why? Is someone going to get within wifi range, hack into one of 7 hidden SSIDs, then hack into the client RB, just to inject malware?

I bet you a million dollars that'll never happen. PM me for instructions of how to pay me.

Give me your home address and we'll see. Hidden SSIDs don't secure anything, lol.
