    Netgear R7800-X4S Firmware 1.0.2.60

    I remember Voxel mentioning that Netgear outsources their firmware development now, and is for the most part no longer developed in house... That could explain the lack of any real QA.

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.60SF

    Excellent work, Voxel! I've done my testing; 1.0.2.60SF doesn't seem to have ping/latency issues. Results over 5GHz band using 1.0.2.60SF: Packets: sent=500, rcvd=500, error=0, lost=0 (0.0% loss) in 99.815344 sec RTTs in ms: min/avg/max/dev: 10.149 / 15.393 / 44.572 / 3.558 Bandwidth in...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.59SF

    1.0.2.54SF results over 5GHz band: Packets: sent=500, rcvd=500, error=0, lost=0 (0.0% loss) in 99.815884 sec RTTs in ms: min/avg/max/dev: 8.578 / 14.555 / 40.394 / 3.150 Bandwidth in kbytes/sec: sent=0.300, rcvd=0.300 Voxel's 1.0.2.54SF is free from this ping and latency issue (as it should be).

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.59SF

    Interesting. Can confirm the issues with latency and packet loss. Here are my results with ./hrping -n 500 -s 200 x.x.x.x -g (I pinged the first hop outside of my network): Packets: sent=500, rcvd=471, error=0, lost=29 (5.8% loss) in 99.813059 sec RTTs in ms: min/avg/max/dev: 4.598 / 28.549 /...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.54SF

    Yes, that is correct. I have kamoj's add on for enhanced debug statistics installed. So I guess it's caused by that.

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.54SF

    I've had one issue thus far. The process "sh" takes up about half CPU power. Based on the load averages, it's been like that for awhile... First I've had issues with miniupnpd causing unnecessary CPU load, now a random, sh process? What is going on? Edit: Using ps, I've been able to narrow...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    Actually tested this just now. It shows up in the value box, but hitting Apply does indeed result in a 400 HTTP error message. Tested on Voxel's latest, 1.0.2.54SF. Edit: Just realized that to apply the change, a reboot is needed. My bad :p

    R7800 SmallNetBuilder Review

    Well, I don't think it's a coincidence that you're having WiFi issues with 1.0.2.52. It just so happens that this update also brings new WiFi drivers for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios. Oddly enough, Netgear doesn't mention this in the changelog. A good test to do (but may not be practical for your...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    Very odd. There is a commit on Voxel's Github that increases Traffic Meter's HTML field value from 6 digits to 9; and a commit that should allow the use of a value above 999,999 MB. Worst case, this telnet/ssh command created by kamoj should work with 50SF and 53SF-KF.

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    Yes, Voxel increased the 6 digit limitation to 9 digits (basically 1000 TB, or 1 petabyte). 1.0.2.53SF added full support for it, as before .53, you had to use a telnet/ssh oneliner command to "bypass" the traffic_meter's hardcoded limitation.

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    Anyone else experiencing a continuous ~50% CPU usage with miniupnpd? Not sure how long it has been going at ~50% utilization, but what I don't understand is I have UPnP disabled...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    I'm able to access my NAS as well from WiFi, no issues here. Using Voxel's latest with kamoj fix (KF).

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    Also, I would disable Smart Connect. I've had issues with gaming consoles losing connectivity. Supposedly, Smart Connect should prevent dropped connections in this scenario, but the implementation is probably gimmicky and may not work properly for all devices. Might make more sense if the...

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    I've personally had great success with Voxel's 1.0.2.50SF. No attached devices bug to speak of, and no issues with the GUI.

    Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.53SF/1.0.2.53SF-KF [Updated]

    Interesting. It must be because of the updated FCC guidelines. I recall reading that they've increased legal power output for certain channels. That could explain the power increase. Thanks for the information! I will say WiFi performance—subjectively—seems better than previous firmwares using...
