    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    Here are my full test results with the three different socket options from Adamms' top post. To avoid disk bottlenecks, this time I tested with a Samsung T5 SSD (USB 3.1, transfer speed up to 540 MB/s) on the router and a RAM disk on the client side. No kernel tweaks were used. My results now...

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    The config without fixed buffers indeed seems an improvement for your read speed! Please note that Adamm and I ran the tests with the 100 MB file option, as I wanted to avoid creating memory pressure that could influence the results. The AC87U has 256 MB RAM. So to compare (if you have some...

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    But the buffer needs to be (or grow) large enough to keep the network "full". A fixed TCP buffer is a cap on the amount of data that can be "in flight" and thus on the throughput, even if the application were infinitely fast. Unfortunately some advice that was fine in the days of Windows XP...

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    Does it make a difference if you enter this command: echo 4096 65636 3521536 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_wmem and then restart Samba and try again? Could you paste the output of the NAS performance tester here? What this does is that it sets the default sendbuffer for all TCP sockets (at the...

    [Preview] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.4 test builds

    @RMerlin In commit b74640 (back in September 2017) you enabled SMB2 by default on the HND platform, but Advanced_AiDisk_samba.asp still contains the text "Enable SMB2 protocol (default: No)", regardless of the hardware platform.

    [Preview] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.4 test builds

    Alpha 2 running fine on my RT-AC86U. IPSec appears on the VPN pages now, but I haven't tested it.

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    No kernel settings need to be changed. I wrote that you could use this on the AC86U: echo 524288 > /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max echo 524288 > /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max just because that is a tweak that already is in 384.4, so to compare apples to apples when testing from 384.3 or earlier. The...

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    Here are my test results, default Samba config versus without the SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF options: 1) on a wireless 5 GHz connection (data rate: 1300 Mbps): write speed improved from 21 MB/sec to 48 MB/sec (+129%) read speed improved from 26 MB/sec to 39 MB/sec (+50%) 2) on a wired 1 Gbps...

    'Apply' button not responsive

    A logical explanation would be that a name appears in the Hostname or MAC address column that contains an apostophe (') character. But the error seems to indicate that the page is not initialized properly (because of that), so maybe you can't see any entries in the Manually Assigned IP around...

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    On the AC86U I assume that would default to: an initial receive buffer size of 87380, auto-tuned by the kernel up to 278528 (or 524288 for 384.4) an initial send buffer size of 16384, auto-tuned by the kernel up to 278528 (or 524288 for 384.4) To get the 384.4 tweaked maximum values that I...

    AC86U SMB Tweaking

    Not setting the SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF socket options may be a good idea because on Linux there is TCP buffer auto-tuning which only works if you don't set socket buffer sizes, so it is more effective not to set SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF with TCP connections. This should allow Linux to find the...

    [Preview] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.4 test builds

    Maybe related: commit 9afa4aa ("build: fix a few paths in copy-prebuilt script") reverted commit 206b89a ("build: update copy-prebuilt for model-specific libbwdpi.so collection").

    [Preview] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.4 test builds

    @RMerlin Commit 855fc08 has the description "Merge SDK 7114 files and binary blobs for RT-AC3100 and RT-AC5300 (GPL 384_20379)". Looking at release/src/router/bwdpi_source/asus/prebuild_arm_7114/RT-AC5300/libbwdpi.so the version in github is the same as the one in...

    [Release 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.3 is now available

    You could try 384.4_alpha1 to see if it is fixed in that release, which contains updated binary blobs for the RT-AC3200 from 382_50010. You can download it from the https://asuswrt.lostrealm.ca/test-builds folder.

    [Beta 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.3 Beta is now available

    In that commit you commented out the links with id="faq_macOS", id="faq_iPhone" and id="faq_android". But on lines 186-191, faqURL() is still being called with these id's that no longer exist. That results in a TypeErr: document.getElementById(...) is null at httpApi.js:390.
