Beta [FORK] [DSL] [TESTERS] GNUton's Alpha/Beta Merlin builds

[Yakumo]

3004.388.4_0-gnuton0_beta2
DSL-AX82U

Two minor things on Administration -> Firmware upgrade page , not sure if it's worth filing github issues for but I will if asked, if there is a better site/thread now as this seams dead I have not found yet it, sorry -

1. Firmware update check is failing currently, and the error message for it states "The router cannot connect to ASUS server to check for the firmware update. Please download the latest firmware from ASUS Product Support Site and do manually upgrade. Check on [FAQ](http://192.168.1.1/Advanced_FirmwareUpgrade_Content.asp) for more instructions." which should not be the case for Gnuton firmware of course.

2. A weird quirk on that page also, firmware version Current Version shown there loads as "3004.388.4_0-gnuton0_beta2" approximately four seconds after every page load pops into "3004.388.4-gnuton0_beta2" dropping the "_0" for some reason.

I see an upcoming change with 3004.388.5 builds is:

- CHANGED: Display tracked connections on the QoS/Classification page even if QoS isn't set to Adaptive QoS.

Does this impact CPU or other resources when not looking at that page? If so will there be an option to turn off that data gathering?

Does this impact CPU or other resources when not looking at that page?

No. The changes are strictly to that specific page.

For those who have mentioned no cpu 4 usage… I had my xt8 under decent load streaming 4k and also copying 100gb from a connected USB stick (in the main XT8) to a laptop…

Just noticed 388.5 was put up a few days ago, fetched and ran a root filesystem comparison with the last beta before it for the XT8 V1:

Release build is back to missing the TEE module.

Following up on the recent topic, is there any plan to support the ZenWiFi XT9 in the imminent future please?

I have same question, since the openvpn client is 2.4, not sure for how long it will be supported by vpn providers.
