Router/Version: TP-Link TL-WR841ND v11
Update method: WebUpgrade
File/Kernel: tl-wr841nd-webflash.bin / Linux 3.18.140-d6 #165135 Tue Feb 28 05:51:17 +06 2023 mips
Previous/Reset: r51855 / no
Mode/Status: AP wired and wireless / Up and running for 4:30 hours
Issues/Errors: Nothing significant
The fact is that the router connected to the Internet (to the Internet provider). And it reports an error, the orange WAN indicator flashes (the icon in the form of a planet). Internet is working, I just think it's a glitch
Thank you BS and gurus! _________________ Atheros

Issues: findfs applet missing in BusyBox 1.36.0
Last build available: r51787 - 2/20/23
Simplifies mounting by label/UUID at boot.
Work-around: blkid is available, prefer findfs
Sure is. But it's not available until after filesystems are mounted. Catch-22 _________________ Current: Netgear R9000 DD-WRT v3.0-r55460 std (03/25/24)

When yo use this newest build on this model your Settings -> switch config tab is configurable ? Actually I'm stay on build 02/07/23, becuase when I'm touch options in settings -> switch config tab then click save and click apply settings router totally stop respond. I can't use wired connection internet, GUI, ssh management. I can solve problems with restore factory defaults and make fresh configuration. All features operating until I try to reconfigure switch options. Cause that problem is exist I'm decide to use older build where all features work good.
Yes it is configurable, but I would need to test to verify. when I originally flashed the switch would not give a dhcp ip address and setting a static address did not help. Since I use it as a station (ie wireless client that connects wired devices), I was able to check and it was getting a WAN address. luckily I have a hardware mod where I have already attach a serial cable and drilled a hole so I connected and was able to inspect. The system did detect the ports being connected via the logs. The system itself did seem fine, so I am wondering if there is something with the switch config.
I will play with it more since you asked, but I am pretty confident it has the problem you described.

Thanks for alerting me to that.
There are currently no drives attached to my R7800 router other than the thumbdrive with jffs and optware, so I haven't actually tested if my mounting script still works with findfs. However, see below.
I have the router copy commands scripts from /jffs to /tmp/root before my NAS mounting script is executed (currently it just doesn't find any drives).
The essence of my startup script:
...
# Delay until jffs and optware partitions are mounted (max. 10 sec each)
logger -t --- "Delay $0 script execution until jffs & optware mount"
is-mounted /jffs 10
is-mounted /opt 10
logger -t --- "CPU governor settings"
## --------------------------------------------------------------------
# Enable CPU frequency scaling for both CPU's
echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor
# Default up_threshold as per BS is 80% ...
echo 20 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold
# Default sampling_down_factor is 1, some prefer 10 ...
echo 5 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_down_factor
....
# Final step for activating Entware (~Optware) ...
# Start all init scripts in /opt/etc/init.d including symlinks
sleep 10
logger -t --- "Activate Entware through rc.unslung"
/opt/etc/init.d/rc.unslung start
sleep 5
/tmp/root/mountNASdrives.sh
logger -t --- "End of $0 script."
Because of your comment I checked the syslog for messages about the use of findfs in the mounting script, but there was nothing worrying there. The script looked for a few drives with particular UUID's but didn't find them, as was to be expected. No complaints about findfs whatsoever.
With a suitable startup sequence, it looks like findfs can replace the more complicated blkid command line.
Yesterday I set up the Entware installation again from scratch and also installed blkid from Entware to replace the Busybox version. As it came, it could only be executed using its full path.
Some linking would be required to make it otherwise.

you dont have to use
is-mounted /jffs 10
is-mounted /opt 10
you just save your scripts/commands to save USB and it will execute those once USB is up and running..
also you can use automount future just label those partition OPT or JFFS and enable aoutomount...
you can install findfs if its not present via entware and don't need to do anithing sketchy to make it work...
to start entware save this in usb script
/opt/etc/init.d/rc.unslung start _________________ Atheros

Device won't working after made own configuration in setup -> switch config tab. GUI, SSH, wire and internet connections are unavailable. After restart by button on case router have correct IP. Can't ping. It's "PING: transmit failed, general failure". I don't know what provoke problems. I'm back to r51589 build and all functions working good. That's last stable build for my router model.
