On my first attempt, I had no USB service with r61408. Reverted to r61337. Syslog attached.
After reading that no one else had issues, I tried again and all worked well. Must have been a problem on my end.

USB is working on ea8500, mx8500 and mx4300. Maybe it's just specific to the r9000? _________________ - Linksys EA8500: I-Gateway, WAP/VAP 5ghz only. Features: VLANs, Samba, WG, Entware - r60xxx

Since it worked for you, I tried the flash again and all is well. Must have been a gremlin loose in my system the first time. _________________ Linksys MX8500 DD-WRT v3.0-r62966 std (12/06/25)

If your router's light turns red, don't worry. Internet connection is ok.

Issues/Errors:
Up 8 hours. USB 3.2 stick working properly for Entware and "jffs" partitions. Speed, wired and wifi, is very close to published, which is equal or favorable to the ISP router - tested via nPerf.com. Wireguard and OpenVPN servers both working as expected and throughput sufficient to open video files on network shares. 5GHz showing 27dBm (set to 30dBm). 2.4GHz showing 28dBm (also set to 30dBm).
No issues found.

Issues/Errors: Wireless Status Rate much too high
Here it's just displayed incorrectly, so just cosmetic
The status page displays at HT20 a rate of 346.6 MBit/s and at HT40 a rate of 800 MBit/s. I haven't screwed additional antennas to the router
Max the router can handle is 144.4 MBit/s at HT20 and 300 MBit/s at HT40.
