New version of my custom firmware build: 1.0.2.40SF.

Changes (vs 1.0.2.39SF):
1. OpenSSL is upgraded 1.0.2l->1.0.2m. Fixes (OpenSSL changelog):
* bn_sqrx8x_internal carry bug on x86_64 (CVE-2017-3736).
* Malformed X.509 IPAddressFamily could cause OOB read (CVE-2017-3735).
2. Changes in OpenVPN client:
* "--cd $OPENVPN_CONF_DIR" option is added to startup script.
3. ReadyCLOUD is upgraded 20161026->20170914, startup/upgrade script is optimized.
4. redis package (client/server) is upgraded 2.6.13->4.0.2 (used in QoS).
5. libubox package is upgraded 2017-09-29->2017-10-06.
6. ubus package is upgraded 2017-02-18->2017-11-06.
7. libxml package is upgraded 2.9.6->2.9.7.
8. sqlite package is upgraded 3200100->3210000.
9. expat package is upgraded 2.2.4->2.2.5.
10. Several packages are optimized to decrease resulting size.

Update (recovering problem with QoS)

New version of my custom firmware build: 1.0.2.41SF.

Changes (vs 1.0.2.40SF):
1. redis package (client/server) revert back 4.0.2->2.6.13 (used in QoS).

(thanks to Mark Eagles and Jeanmi for reporting bug).

https://www.voxel-firmware.com (thanks to vladlenas for his help with hosting).

No reset is needed to upgrade from my previous versions.

P.S.
This version does not include the fix for the WPA2 Vulnerability in bridge mode (the last is not released by NETGEAR yet).

Nice work.
Upgraded but all info on QoS has gone i.e mb being used and by what device and what protocol the + is missing even with a reset by button and re-configure
 
OK, sorry guys. Experiment with upgrading redis server and client was wrong :confused: Prebuilt modules are oriented to old version of redis...

Wait for a QoS fixing version (revert redis) 1.0.2.41SF.

Is there any default timeout for the firmware upload through any means.
 
I believe even 41F is crashing. Last know firmware to work without crash is 37F.

Would it broken if i downgrade from 41F
 
I believe even 41F is crashing. Last know firmware to work without crash is 37F.

Please do not scare users of my FW. First, you mean that you have unclear crashing QoS, but not FW itself. Second, you have the same crashing QoS with stock FW. Third, this problem is something unique, and maybe exists only in your environment: nobody else reported such problem, neither with stock FW, nor with my build. And I've put previous version of QoS for download especially for you. And you have confirmed that previous version of QoS is working OK for you, right?

Also, "I believe even 41F is crashing": you believe or it is so? Notice, that changes in my FW since 37SF do not touch QoS.

I didn't mean the router crash. its QOS crash. May be its my environment. I didnt want it to crash. The firmware when you introduced the I/O handler it stopped crashing. Which few asked why is it required. And few stayed away. After that next version also stable. Starting from 39F i am facing this issue.

May be a refresh to router might resolve the issue. Will try this weekend.

Since i connect another router in Bridge mode. Most of the clients wireless connects to my R7800 and only Wired DesktopPC and NAS connects to linksys EA7500.

May be the EA can cause this issue. I need a direct connect from Router to PC and NAS. I cant move it to the Prime R7800 location.

Anyway. You fimware was far better than stock and really meant to be the firmware Which netgear would have done from the begining.

the release a hardware and leave it unless it is vulnerable and need a real attention. Otherwise if untile the core functionality is not affected it wont be a neceessity for them to patch it.

You does every module upgrade to latest which includes the basic fix and improvement over the preivous version.

Thanks

So maybe you should try again with previous version of QoS. I still keep it for downloading. In past it was helpful for your issue.

It is rather strange because irqbalance is still in my builds. Changes in 39 and above are mainly related to Samba optimization and the last does not touch QoS at all. You know, I tried to upgrade redis server/client in 40SF especially for your case, but unfortunately newer version is not compatible with version used in QoS. Redis is used by all QoS applications. So QoS related stuffs are now the same as in 37SF.


You are welcome :). Try previous QoS DB.

Hello Voxel,
Qos is still blocked
is it possible to restart Qos from ssh / telnet without restarting the router
Thank you
 
Hello Voxel,

Thank you
Did you download 1.0.2.41SF that should fix QoS, if need be reboot the router, it wont do any harm its not like doing a reset.
 
Hello Voxel,

Thank you
Hello,

I do not know, mine is still working (3 days after last reboot). Try to clear cache in your browser.

Command to restart QoS from console:

Code:
/etc/init.d/streamboost stop
/etc/init.d/streamboost start

iptables should display some error messages, but just ignore them.

Check that QoS is working after restart (or/and before):
Code:
/bin/ps | grep appflow

Updated list of available packages in /var/opkg-lists/streamboost.
streamboost: [  OK  ] Everything is up-to-date.

Maybe you should do reset of your R7800. Backup settings, reset and restore. Is something specific in your ISP connection?
