Router Model Netgear R7000
Firmware Version DD-WRT v3.0-r52596 std (05/18/23)
Kernel Version Linux 4.4.302-st40 #9360 SMP Mon May 15 17:46:07 +06 2023 armv7l

update: CLI r52569 > r52596
reset: NO
mode: Gateway
status: Operational 12h+
errors: >>

In order to test the updated ndpi service, i decided to use long list to block ndpi, l7 and risk rules...not seeing any performance draw backs...
On this unit, Im also heaving PBR VPN x3 VLAN's...along with SmartDNS, Ad-block and long list of other firewall rules..so far so good running smooth...I also checked firewall rules at cat /tmp/.ipt iptables -t mangle -vnL, or cat /tmp/.rule to see if there are any changes, as im using all those service blocking rules...but haven't seen any change..so, where to look at...is my silly question... Rolling Eyes Embarassed ...

p.s.

R7000 lsmod output

nor anything positive at
iptables -t mangle -vnL

so...is the new ndip,l7,risk section is actually working on R7000 ??

i looked at --> https://github.com/mirror/dd-wrt/blob/master/src/router/configs/northstar/.config_northstar
and can see ndpi and l7.. but... Rolling Eyes

on R7000 im using all those blocked services..


but still able to ping windows-telemetry from router side...

I can see https://svn.dd-wrt.com/browser/src/router/ndpi-netfilter/ndpi-netfilter/INSTALL?rev=49984
is available for Kernel 4.4 but not functioning on R7000 Rolling Eyes
tried to fiddle with some commands from the link above and if i add
modprobe xt_ndpi to firewall rules, than i can see the output of
lsmod - xt_ndpi 713132 0 ...but GUI rules still done work..
or not present anywhere i looked at...

so, yep to make those ndpi/l7/risk service blocking rules to work, I guess something is still missing on R7000 ...looking forward...to see those in action...BS could you have a look at those ?? Embarassed

Don't seem to see any changelog, is a changelog available vs the previous build? Would be good to understand the differences and fixes / changes. Cool

change logs are only on the SVN trackline https://svn.dd-wrt.com/

or you get OpenVPN change log here https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=327398

epstrada feel free to contribute and make changelog easy to read for the newcomers... Cool


p.s. lol this what i call timing...x3 of us..

Would help if someone can take off cool sunglasses and read. Changelog, since last build, is effectively listed twice.
Broken down for you in notes every single release. Maybe this is just another troll account we have plenty of these.

Yes, I read that however it's not clear what the differences are vs the previous version. I can see the code changes, but it doesn't seem to list fixes / changes in a readable manner.

Example readable changelog: https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/changelog

This is what I mean. If it's not there, not a problem. It just helps to determine why I would run the update or not.

Not a Troll at all, sad you would assume that but I guess this is what people have been warning for about some members of the community in this forum. Anyway, I have read it and to me, it does not list differences in a readable manner. Subjective? sure. Helpful to a non-firmware programmer to understand what differences / fixes there are? Not in my opinion. Cool

Sadly over the years there are only a few remaining experts here who can explain the code changes in layman terms, but they don't have the spare time and energy to do that.
Back to this reference https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/changelog, it's indeed nice to have, but to me most of them are still incomprehensible. Maybe to summarize it's like "Bugfixes and performance improvements"?. New features are highlighted here anyway:

What are you looking for specifically? New features? Faster speed? Better security? Higher reliability? You may get the answer if you provide the basic info of your router (HW & FW) and post a specific question in some other relevant subforum.

Can let me know who those are? Just curious.

Agree, I will look into contributing making these available in a more readable format listed in plain text without the urls - but it would require some collaboration with the maintainers.

Sure, i'll post the template with my hardware and version below! I am mostly looking for wireless performance improvement as well as stability for my AC68U's - I was also experiencing some of the wireless de-authentication issues other users were reporting in the previous build] (I tried the leasetime increase fix) but this would be something I am looking to check against if it was included in the changelog or not.

It was a generalisation on my side.

You can use the BugTracker in the horizontal navigator bar above to find out what source codes have been changed. If you wanted an executive summary of important changes or even some guraantees for stability, um... assume that this kind of builds are betas and work-in-progress.

You might wanna start a new thread dedicated to this topic. It's indeed interesting. Smile

Just to remind you, DD-WRT development team is not a big company like Micro$oft, Google, Apple, IBM, Fedora, Ubuntu, Mozilla, etc. Are you interested to run a company serving DD-WRT? Just like how Linux had gone through, in the past 20 years ... Wink

(BTW, Caldera OpenLinux tried, it even acquired SCO Xenix, but in the end it's a failure!! Neverthelss, we have Ubuntu and Redhat.)

Notes:
...L7 AYB FW VXLAN log no...
L7: Layer 7 telemetry filtering, add back to webUI Access Restrictions & remove from QoS.
AYB: WNDR3700v5 an attempt to fix hardware ID flashing from stock webUI or nmrpflash.
FW: Comment out, or effectively remove four obsolete nDPI entries from DD-WRT firewall.
VXLAN: Adding VXLAN support has been a primary focus for the past three releases a WIP.
log: Nomessage flag so we can include more log messages into dnsmasq, self explanatory.
no: Add nobody user account, you can use search as any other to determine a typical use.

Amount of user effort is directly related inversely proportional to amount of user complaint.
All of this can be discovered by searching forum threads, web, also reading since last build.
