Same here, I use PPPoE.Is everyone with boot loops using PPPoE? Because for me it's fine on all the tested models, but I only use DHCP.
It does that because you just imported a config file - this is normal.

I setup in PPPoE and after reboot got reboot loop. I do a Hard Factory Reset and after I was able to connect in the router (dhcp setting by default) I started to configure wifi etc and all was ok. Immediatly after I setup the PPPoE the reboot loop have started again. After this I flashed back the alpha 1 firmware.Is everyone with boot loops using PPPoE?

Yes, PPPoE.Is everyone with boot loops using PPPoE? Because for me it's fine on all the tested models, but I only use DHCP.

yesI think I have to format the USB stick and start over.
Any thoughts?
No issues but did notice a "new" favicon on the AX86U tab in my browser
Makes sense with the new GPL drop. Have not run stock anywhere in a long time.This one is perhaps new to Asuswrt-Merlin, came with Asuswrt months ago.
EXACTLY the same with my RT-AX-88U; I’m personally using PPPoE. Then in rescue mode I reloaded alpha1 and the router started normally.Flashed from the latest official AX88U firmware to Merlin alpha2 now it's in what seems like a boot loop (The wifi light stay on but the power/internet light goes off and comes back in a few seconds)
Is this like previous firmware where I have to wait for a bit or is this an error?
I've rolled back to alpha_1 (dirty rollback, just uploaded alpha_1) and not having any problems installing Entware, as well as addons. I guess the problem with alpha_2 is it is not able to mount the volumes on the USB with rw permissions.After a very dirty upgrade from alpha_1 (USB stick plugged in), Entware installation seems like corrupted. In amtm all scripts except Diversion looks like installed correctly, however when I run them they throw errors. For example ntpmerlin says "Entware not found, sleeping for 10s (attempt 1 of 10)".

When trying to install Entware through amtm, this is the console output:
View attachment 37139
View attachment 37140
Trying to install Diversion also throws a similar error with a larger output.
View attachment 37141
Restoring the JFFS partition from backup doesn't help.

Yes, my experience also. Me thinks the firmware update procedure corrupted the USB, I believe part of the procedure unmounts the USB first before but this time it doesn't, as a result, the contents of the USB got lost including disk check(dc) that checks the disk as part of the reboot, that's why it can not recover.When I updated to Alpha 2, I lost all my scripts.
The router still showed the USB as mounted, but no one home.
was the work of a minute or two to reinstall everything, all good since.
Another observation, using DHCP here, no problems seen.
caused by 7 years old code related to PPPoE MTU which was no longer compatible with the latest GPL code
He asked if people that had the bootloop issue were using pppoe then looked into the code??Honestly how the hell did you figure that out ?
