Router: Netgear R7000
Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r35030M kongac 02/19/18
Kernel: Linux 4.4.116-rc1 #530 SMP Mon Feb 19 23:02:30 CET 2018

update: 34900 (8 days of uptime) --> 35030
status: operational
reset: no
errors: none so far

This setup is very simple:
    *2.4 GHz only with only 1 wireless device in use most of the time.
    *Some physically connected systems (via unmanaged switch).
    * No USB, no VPN, no entware, etc.
    * QoS for buffer bloat (WTB/FQ_CODEL).
    * Using this test, I get Overall=A+, BufferBloat=A, Quality=A+


Will post back to update after a few days.

Uptime: 27 days, 18:04
Received (RX) >10M OK, no error
Transmitted (TX) >13M OK, no error

Just installed on my Netgear r8000. Running well so far. Was experiencing some wifi cell phone drops in previous Kong build. Hopefully fixed now.

Status: errors, see below
Reset: erase nvram before + factory reset after

Tried with ver.2 of this build and again got a number of ntp related errors in the log + no traffic on WAN interface

Code:
Feb 20 16:10:09 Guardian1 daemon.err ntpclient[4997]: Failed connecting to 2.pool.ntp.org [2a00:1a28:1157:149::36a4]: Address family not supported by protocol



Decided to fiddle a bit with my settings:
- Added explicit ntp server and got correct time but still no access to WAN
- Disabled DNSCrypt - this brought back WAN

Seems DNSCrypt is broken and there is still a problem with ntp


NTP does work, the error message is because it tries to access ipv6 connection first and then ipv4.
There is a success after

but is still doesn't use my configured ntp server

R7000 router

Assigning different SSIDs to 2.4 & 5 bands solved the problem of recurring crashes.

Active almost 6 hours with only a small increase in number of errors.

Just one hint, if dnscrypt is enabled it will not use your configured ntp server, but fixed IPs, as dnscrypt only works if it has the correct time.

Thanks for replying Kong! Some additional input to the issue:
- with my standard setting “DNS encryption enabled” against Opendns I got no access to internet and throttled bandwidth on lan
- Disabling this setting made things work fine
- Noticed a little while ago, using ps, that dnscrypt is still running despite the disabled state.
Regardless everything seem to work well with these settings so I will leave as is but there seems to be some strangeness under the hood

With this build on my netgear r8000 I seem to be getting wireless drops when using wifi calling on a iPhone 6. Am not moving around the house, sitting in one location and get drops. The wireless signal indicated is all bars. I do not notice this when browsing web or streaming, but I think wifi calling is more connection sensitive.

Router Model: Netgear R6400

Firmware Version: DD-WRT v3.0-r35030M kongac (02/19/1Cool
Kernel Version: Linux 4.4.116-rc1 #530 SMP Mon Feb 19 23:02:30 CET 2018 armv7l

Upgraded: from DD-WRT v3.0-r34900M kongac (02/11/1Cool via ddup --flash-latest
Reset: No not this time

Status: Up and running for 24 hours, basic setup as AP, static leases, OpenVPN client ( on PIA) with Policy Based Routing up and running, 2,4GHz, 5Ghz USB storage working. OpenVPN server setup and running.
Samba maybe now needs the Server and Workgroup settings to show up in Windows (will test more)
GUI seems more responsive and quicker


Errors: Yes
OpenVPN with Policy Based Routing does not forward HTTP(s) traffic to the PBR clients with SFE on see: http://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/5900.
Possible DNS leak see: http://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/6020
Mini-DLNA is not working
Transmit errors on both 2,4 and 5 GHz seems a bit higher than usual



There is a solution, to the PBR not working with SFE[/b], @Quarkysg has made a patch for the shortcut-fe module (see: http://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/5986#no1 )
He also compiled a shortcut-fe.ko module for testing (Arm/Broadcom , Linux 4.4) see: https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1107870#1107870 , I am running that shortcut-fe.ko module right now and it is working.

Big Thanks to Kong and BrainSlayer!!

@Kong

Just FYI, past few builds, including this one, I am getting a seriously high amount of TX errors over all the three radios on my R8000. Pretty simple config and nothing has changed apart from the build upgrade.

Thanks for your continued support!
