Thanks for the great firmware, where can I find the donation button currently? :)

Edit: found it, small donation made!

Thanks for all your work keeping the firmware in my router up-to-date! As an added bonus, now that you've put your Voxel branding front-and-center, it's led me to learn that the cube with the colorful border in your logo is in fact a voxel.
 
can you confirm the spelling? seems like an extra 'q' snuck in...
Yeah, sorry. Confirmed, but it is definitely my misprint. Please set both. I'll fix it in the next release.

/etc/init.d/dnsmasq:

. . .
DNSMASQ_DISABLED=$($CONFIG get disable_dnsmqasq)
. . .
start() {
if [ "$DNSMASQ_DISABLED" = "1" ]; then
echo "DNSMASQ is disabled in nvram."
exit
fi

Got it.
Both APs upgraded. I changed the script (and nvram setting) to the correction. everything working.
Originally only had the runaway process problem on one of my R7800 - now both are quiet.
Thank you again.
 
Thanks, Voxel, for all your work!

Might there be a snapshot with the AP dnsmasq fix? I don't know how to insert the fix code mentioned. Is that easy to do?

Just set both nvram variables:

Code:
nvram set disable_dnsmqasq=1
nvram set disable_dnsmasq=1
nvram commit

Later (next release) this typo disable_dnsmqasq could be unset.
