See the following link where he asked users to test the new LED control: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/3...-s-available-build-s.94129/page-4#post-948316

Have loaded new alpha2 and most seems fine.....
Software not load first time, have to turned off DNS over TLS, Unmounted USB and turned off all killswitch.

Have to create new guestnetwork on 5GHz, but that according to changelog.

Thanks for the new software

I don't see the Aura RGB-light mentioned but it sure has a connection. No biggie but it was nice to boot with leds on, aura off.

As those links indicated he changed the way the Asus-Merlin firmware handles LED's. If you look at the code changes at the following link you'll see he removed the Asus-Merlin firmware code that controlled the LED's turning on based on router model. For example the GTAX11000_PRO.

rc: remove legacy code for LED control · RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng@c13a70e

Third party firmware for Asus routers (newer codebase) - rc: remove legacy code for LED control · RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng@c13a70e

github.com

It is possible by reverting back to letting the Asus closed source code handle the LED's, that closed source code may be the issue, or how it's called may be the issue, with your specific router.

I think I found what's causing my dcd errors. I had Guest Network 2.5 and 5 setup manually for some WPA2 hardware same as the previous stable firmware but these GN's is causing to dcd errors with this Alpha. When I turned them(GN) off the dcd stopped.

@RMerlin

Update: Tried to enable GN2.4 and left GN5.0 disabled, no dcd errors. Once both were on, dcd errors shows its ugly head again.

Upgraded first alpha 2 to second alpha 2 this evening on my GT-AX6000.

Router now keeps losing the connection my IoT devices on the IoT (Guest Pro) network

(a few seconds after every reboot)

First downgraded to the first 3006 alpha 2. Connections seemed a bit more stable, but ping to devices in the same room as the router had a "time" of more than 2000 ms.

Next downgraded to 3004 and restored the 3004 settings. Initially had connectivity issues as well, but they seem stable now and ping to those devices is less than 20 ms.

Filthy upgrade from old Alpha 2. No issues so far - will report back if anything jumps out.

PeterR · Tuesday at 6:44 PM

Upgraded from alpha 1 to alpha 2, I had to reinstall unbound GUI add-on to be able to access the tabs for the add-ons I have installed - scmerlin, ntpmerlin, spdmerlin & unbound.

Yes

AP mode works like that. Mine is the same as yours.

@dave14305 Dave, I believe you were wondering about FlexQoS on this code level? All the GUI seems correct (was an error on earlier 3006.102.3 level), Note, no Rate Date though. All seems ok on this Alpha1 level.

An AP is just a bridge. The AP has no idea what the client's IP address or hostnames are, unless some of that info shows up in the AP's ARP cache.

That alone tells me your problem is not the firmware. There was zero changes to the wifi code between alpha builds, so any difference in performance means the issue is your configuration or your environment. Most common cause is people having the channel set to Auto, and ending up on different channels between firmware changes.

dirty from 1st alpha to 2nd alpha. everything seems alright.

Hmmm, nice to learn something new, thought that DNS was separate from the subnet IP question; simply did not think about how it was routed trough it.

I've now changed the DNSDirector code so when a GN has DNSDirector set to "Router" and is on its own separate VLAN/subnet, it will now properly use that subnet's IP instead of the primary LAN IP.

And this as well.

My channel is fixed, set to the least crowded channel (checked yesterday that it’s still the least crowded).

PS: I’m not blaming the firmware (I have seen the “zero changes” response many times before); merely stating what I did and what I observed. I hope to experiment with this or a future build again (or booting 3004 a couple of times), when I have some more time, to try to understand what’s going on.

Thanks, now I made further tests and discovered the culprit was ControlD daemon (as I have DNS director off). I'll report to them.

And regarding GN scheduling? I scheduled to turn on on the weekend, but on week days some bands still keep on and usable.

If I leave DNS set to "Default" in the advanced setting of a 3006 Guest Network, what does "Default" refer to?

The DNS severs from my ISP? Or the DNS servers I set up for the router? Or the DNS server I set up for the regular/main network?

Great news, so now even the GN can benefit of DNSSEC and DoH!
Thank you for you efforts as always.

I am also curious about XIII question about the meaning of "Default" for GN DNS...
