[Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin on Broadcom MIPS RT-N series

[rod]

Possible bug

I am testing the 7b in the RT-N16 and almost everything seems to at least show (and apparently work too). But every time I hit the OpenVPN client link, it wont show.... It displays this page (see attachment)
Don't worrie, it is in spanish but is the same page that appears after you reboot the router... and it says that the configuration has changed and you have to reconnect to the new IP and port.

The rest of the pages work as espected (sometimes I have to reload them or press enter to insist so they show up, but nothing serious)

Thanks for the good job! The firmware is awesome!!

The ls /www output was

I checked twice!

file /www/Advanced_OpenVPNClient_Content.asp exist inside firmware!!!

why it absent in your flashed /www - ????????????????

try reflash again with same firmware file.

 

[rod]

I have reflashed 7b, and switched to english. The problem persist. Also, in the firmware update page I noted that it still says that I have 7a, even after reflash. See attachment.

I have flashed from chromium and opera... In Firefox I can not, at the moment, access at all to the web managment of the router, but It could be something wrong with my firefox.

UPDATE: now the attachment is the correct one.

Will try tripleflash and report

Thanks

 

[AndreyPopov]

Wrong screenshot attached.

Please try flash two or three times

Flash m7b
Reboot
Flash m7b
Reboot
Flash m7b

And please on Tools page see nvram usage

 

[rod]

Now works!!

I reflashed and reboot again, but first stopped all the init.d services. Now it says 7b version, and I can go to OpenVPN client page

Thanks a lot!

PS Nvram usage: 29738 / 32768 bytes
I have aria2, lighttpd with owncloud, an rss daemon, pyload and mysql scripts in init.d

The MIPS version of the Tuxera driver is broken. Tuxera confirmed to me that this was due to the old version found in Asus's GPL, the issue was resolved in newer versions (such as the one used by ARM). I recommend not to use the Tuxera driver on MIPS.

I try on my RT-N15U - FAT and NTFS driver work.

 

[RMerlin]

I try on my RT-N15U - FAT and NTFS driver work.

The FAT32 driver will fill up the log with these:

http://forums.smallnetbuilder.com/showpost.php?p=131876&postcount=237

I asked Tuxera about it (as I was already in touch with them at the time), and they confirmed that this was a known issue in the old MIPS version Asus were using, and it was fixed with TFAT 3014.3.29.

2 Questions

Hi again

Can you publish the changelog for de c series. I guess that is based on beta3, but also, there is a extension pack for the RT-N16 ¿What does it do?

The other question is about the issue with FAT32/NTFS mentioned before by rmerl. ¿Does this build have the bug?

Thanks in advance

 

[AndreyPopov]

1. tuxera bug only FAT32 driver, not in NTFS

2. mod7c:
- all webkit contain Samba 3.6
- all webkit contain prep-ext-kit.sh asusware/entware (for RT-N16 you can apply for use swap option on Administration page)
- fix error in create /jffs structure and prepare /jffs/crontabs/admin jobs file and link it to /var/spool/cron/crontabs/admin in init-start script (now /jffs/crontabs/admin contaion test job and you can see that in Administration page)

 

[rod]

Sorry, I'm a little confused

I have flashed

RT-N16_3.0.0.4_376_2769-g1bb5fac-m7c-webkit.trx
and smbd -i gives me 3.6.xx

RT-N16_3.0.0.4_376_2769-g1bb5fac-m7c.trx
and smbd -i gives me the same 3.6.xx number

Also, both images have the same size. So mi question is what is the differencie between those two images...

And what do I do with the 1.5 mb file called RT-N16_3.0.0.4_376_2769-g1bb5fac-m7c-webkit-ext.tgz

Should I uncompress it on the router having installed the -webkit.trx image previously... or it is allready included there.

Or perhap I should I uncompress it on the router having flashed the trx that doesn say webkit at the end

Thanks in advance

prep-ext-kit.sh know what to do with RT-N16_3.0.0.4_376_2769-g1bb5fac-m7c-webkit-ext.tgz, but for RT-N16 you can apply for use swap option on Administration page

- mod7с 06.11.2014

- Based on Merlin 376.48 final (ASUS 3.0.0.4.376_2769) source
- add Samba 3.6 (3.6.24) for USB routers - RT-N16 in both variants, RT-N14UHP, RT-N15U, RT-N10U in external web kit
- fix jffs error scripts ans folder initializatio (now create /jffs/crontabs instead /jffs/crontab)
- reworked jffs initialization - now by default create file /jffs/crontabs/admin and add symlink in init-start to /var/spool/cron/crontabs/admin
- reworked external web kit install script (for firmware with webkit suffix). now it can run with parameters:
а) prep-ext-kit.sh asusware - install support for Asusware and external web kit
б) prep-ext-kit.sh entware - install support for Entware and external web kit
- after run prep-ext-kit.sh you can use swap file management on Administration page

What about transmit power in last releases? Is it lower compared with 374.43? Can I set it manually using SSH?

I think router RT-N16? or not?

 

[ZLOY SLON]

I think router RT-N16? or not?

RT-N66U. In early builds of Merlin's 376.xx TX power was much lower compared to 374.xx because of new wireless drivers and I couldn't set it using SSH and could not change country code to get more power. Can I do this in your releases?

ONLY Merlin.
