    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.97SF

    Does such an update wipe out your settings? I presume it at least wipes out your private SSH keys (if you added them), correct? I'm new to Voxel and still not clear on what gets wiped vs what doesn't when you upgrade to a new version.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.97SF

    The goal is to try to have clients "prefer" the 5GHz channel by seeing it's beacon before seeing the the 2.4GHz beacon. Is this not what beacon interval is meant to be used for?

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.97SF

    Question regarding config persistence with Voxel firmware... If I edit /etc/config/wireless to manually set the beacon interval for the 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz radios, will it persist after a reboot?

    Kamoj Kamoj Addon 5.5 Beta for Netgear R7800/R8900/R9000 with Voxel FW

    I've tried searching but had no success in finding an overview of exactly what this addon provides and how to obtain/install it. There are several long threads about various versions but that's all I was able to find. Just came over to Voxel from DDWRT so I'm definitely out-of-the-loop on this...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.97SF

    This is not correct. The script checks to see if the files to be copied exist on the flash drive and, if so, copies them to the correct location on the router. Here's a little snippet from the script: # Copy ECDSA dropbear server private key if [ -f /tmp/mnt/$1/dropbear_ecdsa_host_key ]; then...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.97SF

    This is my first time doing an in-place upgrade of Voxel firmware. Is it normal/expected to lose the SSH key setup done in the previous version and to have to re-do the setssh process with a USB stick to get my personal keys installed?

    RT-AX86U - "Restore factory default" from GUI leads to "Cannot Login Unless Logout Another User First"

    Is the cached logged in user information stored somewhere in nvram that I can reset manually before the factory reset/reboot cycle? I seem to recall seeing this somewhere but I can't find it now. If so, would that prevent this issue? UPDATE: Found the old thread I was looking for...

    RT-AX86U - "Restore factory default" from GUI leads to "Cannot Login Unless Logout Another User First"

    RT-AX86U - "Restore factory defaults" option from Administration page, which triggers an automatic reboot (thus no option to log out of the GUI). Also, when I'm in this state of getting the error, I also have tried performing a "hard reset" with the reset button on the router but it doesn't...

    RT-AX86U - "Restore factory default" from GUI leads to "Cannot Login Unless Logout Another User First"

    How can values cached in Firefox make Chrome not work when attempting to log into the router for the very first time? ;) In fact, even when I tried logging into the router for the very first time after unboxing it, I ran into this exact issue. That could not be caused by cached browser values...

    RT-AX86U - "Restore factory default" from GUI leads to "Cannot Login Unless Logout Another User First"

    I don't believe it is browser related as my primary browser is Firefox. I've tried a FF private window as well as switching over to Chrome (which I had never previously used to configure my router) and the issue persisted. I did not reboot my PC, but I don't really see how that could have any...

    RT-AX86U - "Restore factory default" from GUI leads to "Cannot Login Unless Logout Another User First"

    So no way to avoid it without switching over to the default Asus subnet and using static IP's where necessary? If not, that's a bummer. Why on earth would a "restore factory defaults" not reset the last-logged-in IP address?

    RT-AX86U - "Restore factory default" from GUI leads to "Cannot Login Unless Logout Another User First"

    I run my network on the 192.168.1.x subnet. This does not match the Asus defaults and I have no ability to logout from the GUI when restoring factory defaults because it reboots automatically. When the router comes back up, it's on the 192.168.50.x subnet so obviously, the IP of any machine is...

    5GHz WiFi issues on RT-AX86U latest stock FW

    Strange that I've never had an issue in this location with my previous router (Netgear R7800). I did have an Android tablet nearby casting device audio to a Chromecast speaker in the same room, all on the 5GHz channel so there was a lot of network activity in that room at the time.

    5GHz WiFi issues on RT-AX86U latest stock FW

    I was having a Google Duo chat with my daughter from my Google Pixel 5 connected to my 5GHz WiFi network. It was choppy as hell and we ended up dropping and reverting to a traditional cell call. Checking the logs for that timeframe, I see this: Aug 23 15:47:08 wlceventd...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.96SF

    I used dropbearkey on the router to generate new dropbear_ed25519_host_key & extracted the public key to ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub After restarting the router, everything worked fine, with the caveat that putty (Windows SSH client) gave me a warning that the server key didn't match what I had...
