    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    Thanks :D The thread became mostly a personal journal. It was usefull to keep track of all the things I tried. The funny part is: TPLink implements a WiFi Clone function, that copies wireless settings from router to extender, so the users can use the same SSID and password to access the...

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    Current uptime: 31 days :) Most important change: different SSIDs on PowerLine adapter and router (2.4GHz). The only custom (SSH) setting on router: STP enabled on bridge.

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    It "semi-crashed" after 11 days (better than the regular 3). I solved the problem without restart, changing the router port for the powerline adapter. Soft-reseting the port using ethctl gave no result.

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    8 days uptime (and still going). Current "adjustments" are: 1. TCP segmentation offload is turned off, using @ColinTaylor's instructions; I'm using firmware 3004.388.8_4, ethtool is included, no need to install it from the Entware repository ethtool -K br0 tx off sg off tso off gso off 2. STP...

    AX88U Router disconnections (Wireless)

    I don't get the "i will be connected to wifi have full bars but no connection". What do you mean "no connection" ? No internet ? No LAN?

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    Crash again: 3 days after I connected the PLA (w/ AP enabled) Mar 13 20:01:10 kernel: FPM Pool 0: invalid token 0x00009000 freed Mar 13 20:01:10 kernel: FPM Pool 0: ISR timer is enabled. There could be multiple occurrences of the reported issue The symptoms I noticed: the WiFi devices were not...

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    Well... funny stuff. After 7 days of uptime, I attached the PLA unit, just the one directly connected to router. At day 10, I connected the other PLA unit (the WiFi access point). 3 days later (one hour ago), the Internet became unaccesible. I rebooted the router... and nothing. The problem...

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    I upgraded to Merlin 3004.388.8_4 and I used ethtool according @ColinTaylor's instructions. Currently, the PLA is disconnected. Limited testing shows better 2,4G coverage in 388.8_4 vs 384.19 1d14h uptime so far :)

    Ethtool in firmware

    Thank you, Colin. You mentioned that disabling the TCP segmentation offload increases the load on the router’s processor. In your experience, is this noticeable on: 1. LAN - LAN transfers ? (like copying files from PC to NAS) 2. WAN - LAN / LAN - WAN transfers ? (like torrents)

    Ethtool in firmware

    Hi, According changelog, fw 3004.388.6 (20-Jan-2024) added ethtool to the firmware. Does this mean it's not necessary anymore to mount a stick / add entware / opkg install ethtool? I want to disable TCP segmentation offload on bridge interface (I have an use case similar to what @ColinTaylor...

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    Crashed again. About 3 days uptime. The log showed errors like: rdpa_cpu_tx_port_enet_lan#213: rdpa_cpu_tx_port_enet_lan failed. rdd_rc=120 tx_rdd_error_count=23553 I found an older post from @ColinTaylor here...

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    Thank you for you kind words. IIRC, the idea of using the same SSID (to allow me to roam free around house), came from TPLink PLA manual: My previous router was an RT-N66U. I gave up on it because I needed more LAN ports. Also, the same problems I have today, were present during N66U era, but...

    Router trouble RT-AX88U

    Not tested before. The reason is IoT - my Roborock vaccum only connects to 1 SSID. Moving it from one area to another would require a new wireless setup (PITA). Another thing I did today: I disconnected a Samsung Smart TV from the network (F series / cca. 2013). No particular reason other that...
