    John is it possible for you to do a build with a newer version of dhcp6c (wide-dhcp) client? I think this is an old version and sla-id seems broken and its missing a new important flag 'ifid'. I am now also having issues as well getting my isp to respond to solicit packets so I want to see if...

    regarding radvd.conf the stateful/stateless option had no affect on it. It was only happy when it was configured to /64. All documentation i have read points to that prefixes larger than /64 should be split into smaller /64 prefixes lan side, which is probably why radvd moans.

    yep its working, I had to manually fix dhcp6c as I posted earlier but it works with my dhcp6c.conf config in /jffs/configs and the command added to wan-start :) /56 prefix /64 prefix in radvd.conf although I actually now have moved to a more exotic config so I can use DHCP preservation with...

    John I will send you a pm later, there is work to be done on ipv6 QoS also. ip6tables mangle table is missing the MAC rules. :) Since i set my default priority level to very low everything was going at a crawl until I added my MAC to the ip6tables mangle table. :)

    It is enabled john, I am using ipv6 right now :) Why dhcp6c isnt been called looks like some sort of bug. What normally triggers it? Also why is there not even a config generated for it? You wanted testers :) so I tested :) What I can tell you is my isp requires the router to send a request...

    another update. radvd gets confused with a non /64 prefix, lan prefix has to be /64, so the auto generated radvd.conf was generating these errors. Sep 1 14:23:34 radvd[4610]: prefix length should be 64 for br0 Sep 1 14:23:38 radvd[4610]: prefix length should be 64 for br0 Sep 1 14:23:45...

    ok now it is working. The dhcp6c.conf is not been auto generated so I made one in /jffs/configs based on this post. http://www.snbforums.com/threads/asuswrt-merlin-376-48-is-out.20605/page-9#post-150440 That then generated an error that /tmp/dhcp6 could not execute so I then found this post...

    It seems dhcp6s.conf is missing, where should this file exist? Sep 1 13:51:40 dhcp6s: start dhcp6s (0) Sep 1 13:51:40 dhcp6s[2990]: yyerror0: /etc/dhcp6s.conf 4: syntax error Sep 1 13:51:40 dhcp6s[2990]: yyerror0: /etc/dhcp6s.conf 4: fatal parse failure: exiting (1 errors) Sep 1 13:51:40...

    done it but still no go. However I got no idea if my isp has activated ipv6 so I am defenitly not a reliable test case. Officially I am supposed to be using their router as they do not support third party routers, apparently I need to wait for their supplied router to update its firmware, then...

    John crazy timing. My ISP Sky in the UK uses /56 prefix but I did not know the firmware did not support it, and I was unable to get it to work. So I will flash this and report back.

    Share network of Android mobile phone to the router (USB 3G tethering)

    interesting, no wonder i cannot get it to work. If I set my router to usb modem mode, I cannot choose the device type, instead it has boxes for entering apn details, which doesnt work of course as the phone it self handles the apn. So it seems john's fork doesnt support usb tethering and it...

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5GHz network connection drops after a few minutes, does not recover

    State of the project (August 2016)

    John's idea was right which is to stick to specific build and maintain it from there, its been successful. However I also see the merits of what you did merlin in that you want to make the latest asus features available in your firmware. So I suggest a compromise. Every 3-6 months you update...

    Asus ac87u or ac68u

    tough one, its hard to justify buying the weaker spec'd hardware in this case, but I would say the superior software options on the ac68u win out. e.g. you cannot run john's fork on the ac87u so you forced to use the now gimped wifi drivers, which probably reverses any hardware improvements to...

    unstable intel wireless AC 3160

    This is now fully resolved, the remainder of disconnections were caused by the network key rotation, which I confirmed by disabling, I have since turned it back on but only at the maximum 2592000 setting. So 2 causes were protected management frames and key rotation. I think my phone was...

    Optimized for Xbox Setting?

    I dont know what chipset the xbox360 uses but it has worse wireless performance than my 4 year old galaxy ace phone which is only wireless G spec. My so called wireless N xbox360 flatlines at a max 3mbit/sec speed, even for 2.4ghz thats hideous. Also do not know why people are mentioning 5ghz...

    ASUS firmware will change the verification method

    funny enough phones use location tracking tech to auto configure the wifi power settings. I think most use based on the sim and cell data, so even if you e.g. tried to block outgoing requests in a firewall they would still succeed.
