3.0.0.4.374.39 Merlin build over clock

[Raiu]

I did the the button press for the over clock and under tools it still shows its running at 800MHz. Will this change if it worked?

No. You will need to check the bogomips value to determine if it's really overclocked.

this is what i get

Processor : ARMv7 Processor rev 0 (v7l)
processor : 0
BogoMIPS : 1992.29

processor : 1
BogoMIPS : 1998.84

Features : swp half thumb fastmult edsp
CPU implementer : 0x41
CPU architecture: 7
CPU variant : 0x3
CPU part : 0xc09
CPU revision : 0

Hardware : Northstar Prototype
Revision : 0000
Serial : 0000000000000000


I guess that shows it is over clocked?

Yes, since regular Bogomips are 1599.

Awesome! Thank you!!

 

[Just Checking]

Did OC change the Temp or Stability?

Has anyone measured the effect of overclocking on the router temperature or stability?

How did the router performance change with a 20% increase in clock speed?

I can't for the life of me find the script i used to check this again...

EDIT, Found it admin@RT-AC68U:/tmp/home/root# cat /proc/cpuinfo
