    Restoring R7800 netgear flash partition

    R7800 was introduced in 2016. So someone has/had used those usb devices at some point of time. Yes that is why I mentioned check the change log. I updated things based on the change log. I did not ask anyone anything when I built it. This may give you few hints...

    Restoring R7800 netgear flash partition

    Image is just a zip file. 7zip should work. Extracting from router does the same as well. You will be surprised. Source is available for those. Require some effort to find the commit ver mentioned in package. It is just few options that one needs to change and only if needed. If you are...

    Restoring R7800 netgear flash partition

    NSS.AK.1.0.c8-00015.tar.bz2 contains NG pre-built binaries. Create it yourself by extracting binaries from NG fw. There might be some unknown issues, like missing pkgs. You won't see errors for them during build but will eventually run into issues when load the fw on the device. menuconfig is...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.92SF

    It looks like you never did the router reset properly. I just tried little while ago. Updated the firmware from .93SF to .61SF from UI. Reset the router from SSH using below cmds. nvram default nvram commit mtd erase netgear reboot (Resetting from router back button should have done the same...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.92SF

    You mentioned in your post that you cannot use old password and id to login. This gives the impression that your password was not working. (Id is admin) Did you try to reset the router to factory settings when you were not able to login? (Using router back reset button) I have jumped back and...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.93SF

    Its your call you have the final say. In case of detcable my emphasis was on pre-built src/detcable NG binary. init script can be the one you are already using.

    Thank you @HELLO_wORLD and @Voxel for fixing busybox & ipset Makefiles. I had to resolve them manually whenever I was syncing the code.

    [R7800] settings/disable/optimization documentation consolidation

    Yes custom nvram settings do persist between firmware upgrade. Reset router either from the back reset button or telnet/ssh cmds will clear any custom nvram setting. Voxel/NG do occasionally add/remove nvram variables between firmware upgrades. People do reset router once in a while between...

    [R7800] settings/disable/optimization documentation consolidation

    The optimization cmds in this post are combination of setting nvram variables and making some scripts/binaries non-executable. chmod -x <program> - [Makes that script/binary Non-executable] chmod +x <program> - [Makes that script/binary Executable] So if you put all the cmds in this post in a...

    Voxel Help needed with iptables rules

    I assume you meant to delete all custom added rules. Factory reset remove all custom added rules. As long as you do not have 'firewall-start.sh' script on usb with 'post-mount.sh' to automatically add them back again. It depends how you added them. If you added rules manually by running...

    Voxel Help needed with iptables rules

    You do not need SNAT/MASQUERADE rule if you want to keep the source IP as it is when the request reaches RP4/DNS server, in your case ADH. SNAT/MASQUERADE rule will replace source IP with router IP. I use dnsmasq on RP4 for ad filtering and dns caching and I do not want source IP replaced with...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.92SF

    Your rules were applied manually by running cmds from telnet/shell. As I mentioned earlier they will work as long as the router is not rebooted or some process restarts internal firewall. The chmod cmd made the file executable. So if you did not make it executable in your previous attempts...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.92SF

    If you add iptable rules by running iptables cmds manually. They will reset to default NG rules after router reboot or internal firewall restart. You need to add your rules in shell script '/opt/scripts/firewall-start.sh'. Make sure the script is executable. Create shell script...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for R7800 v. 1.0.2.90SF

    Voxel is providing a great service to the community with his firmwares. I am pretty satisfied with it. Once one try to compile it he gets the idea how much effort Voxel has put into it. Just as a fun project for my own learning. I started building the Voxel firmware (.90SF) couple of weeks back...

    [R7800] settings/disable/optimization documentation consolidation

    Yes it is only needed after factory reset. I already check for file existence on router for this optimization script before copy & execute in "post-mount.sh" Something like this: if [[ -f <path-name-of-file-on-router> ]]; then For some other files and scripts that I change at times I...
