Router/Version: TP-Link TL-WR703N v1
File/Kernel: Linux 3.10.108-d11 #153362
Previous/Reset: 52242, factory reset
Mode/Status: Router, WAP modes work fine
Issues/Errors: The Tunnels tab for Wireguard configuration is missing, presumably due to missing necessary scripts. Also true of older builds for this device. Relevant thread: https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=336026

Router/Version: Netgear R7800 x 3
File/Kernel: DD-WRT v3.0-r55179 std (02/24/24)
Previous/Reset: DD-WRT v3.0-r55109 std (02/09/24), last reset at 54905
Mode/Status: Gateway (SFE disabled), Access Point (VANILLA firmware,2.4GHz, 5GHZ, WPA2/WPA3, 802.11r/v/k), IPV6 (DHCP6 w/ prefix delegation), Entware, DOT via SmartDNS/DNSMasq, OpenVPN server, Wireguard Server + 2 wired access points (VANILLA firmware,2.4GHz, 5GHZ, WPA2/WPA3, 802.11r/v/k)
Issues/Errors:
Up 4 hours. USB 3.0 working properly for Entware and "jffs" partitions. Wireguard and OpenVPN servers working as expected and throughput sufficient to open video files on network shares. Speed (tested via nPerf.com) averages 505/420 wired and 490/390 wireless (ISP says 500/500), which is favorable to the ISP router. SFE remains disabled due to random reboots. Router LAN lights are working.

Thanks Brainslayer and Devs

Previous/Reset: r55109 / no
Mode/Status: AP wired and wireless / Up and running for 5:19 hours
Issues/Errors: Nothing significant

The fact is that the router connected to the Internet (to the Internet provider). And it reports an error, the orange WAN indicator flashes (the icon in the form of a planet). Internet is working, I just think it's a glitch

Thank you BS and gurus!
