    Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 install help

    So I have a couple of question. I'm not a linux guy so reading the Quickstart scared the willies out of me. I'm just a Windows guy and a SF programmer, so the rest of this is completely new. With that said my questions are below: 1. Has any done a step by step guide for those of us that are...

    First day with orbi rbk50 - basement modem, 4 floors

    30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.13.1SF-HW

    The 9.x value that Voxel added to the FW Version string is mean to stop NG auto update servers from pushing updated FW. I presume notifications of FW updates maybe seen however they should not come down to your systems automatically. I don't know if Voxel has his FW setup for updating thru the...

    XR500 or R7800

    Good Luck. ;)

    XR500 or R7800

    Get the R7800, you have flexibility to use stock FW or Voxels FW or DD-WRT or OpenWRT FW for extended support. Voxels FW and Kamoj's add on can help you configure many items on the router including QoS. Check the specs between the R7800 and Asus router. If you just need a good router, I...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.13.1SF-HW

    So If I open up putty or teraterm set port 22 and SSH I should be able to log into SSH using admin and pw?

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.13.1SF-HW

    I understand that as well. Looking for a easy end user experience as well is what I'm considering too. It's easier for some users to use telnet and not SSH. SSH involves extra steps to get working when telnet non SSH just needs to be enabled. Having the ability to have telnet enabled all the...

    R7800 Error: No space left on device - Trying to install Entware

    Thank you voxel. Will look into this more. It's been fun working with your FW on the Orbi. Glad this provides an alternative solution to stock FW. ;)

    [R7800] Will no longer save settings after reboot.

    One thing user can do and should do for there routers there using, place a laptop cooler under there router. I've been doing this for almost 10 years now. There inexpensive and help keep the router cooler and helps extend life of the router. Heat over time will degrade electronics. Nature of the...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.13.1SF-HW

    Ok will look in to this. I do understand Linux. Just wondering what all is and isn't supported on your FW. Also somethings that maybe could be added to FW as default vs user customization. Yes I'm aware of FW size constraints as well. I'll check out the script profile and go from there. Thank you.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.13.1SF-HW

    Download Voxels FW file and unpack and load the RBS first the the RBR lastly using the admin UI pages for each. Same as manually loading stock FW back.

    R7800 Error: No space left on device - Trying to install Entware

    Will this be something added to your version of FW? Or will this need to be done each time Entware is installed on initial installation?

    R7800 Error: No space left on device - Trying to install Entware

    Ok, this worked. GNU Nano opened in the telnet program. I presume I don't need to use this again since we were just debugging here? Regarding your quickstart.txt information, "Create the file /overlay/root/ .profile to set PATH for Entware...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.13.1SF-HW

    Some suggestions or requests to see if Voxel can add support for this in Orbi FW? 1. Any chance of having telnet always enabled? Kind of helps to have it enabled when working in telnet and doing multiple reboots and having to always re-enable it after the RBR reboots each time currently...

    R7800 Error: No space left on device - Trying to install Entware

    Got it...that worked. I'm updating my readme.doc file as we go on this. I'd like to get Entware and NetData installation process detailed as best as possible for users who want to use this on Orbi. Will have to figure out the mkswap thing if thats something that is needed or desired. More...
