All systems go!

Thanks. Just wondering isnt r78k doesnt allow any bruteforce attack right. As recently i am seeing such attempts allowed by router luckily AV blocking for now. Isn't firewal built in should block such threats.

Thank you guys

There is a typo in the code. Can be corrected with:

sed -i 's/speep/sleep/g' /sbin/cmdupnp

I've seen NG has released source code for versions up to .82 (latest release). Any plans to add some of it to your firmware?

What are we missing? Specific Chinese Funjsq service support in net-wall, OpenVPN or CGI processor? Disabled telnet? Encrypted partition killing your nand?

The rest is almost the same. Old packages, no acceleration for OpenSSL, the same old toolchain, the same bugs (maybe new as well)...

I do not see any reason to add something from the new stock except QCA drivers if they are updated.

IIRC, they added DHCP options 60 and 61. Besides that, they have shorten the amount of letters you can use in DHCP reseration for Device Name. A really stupid move

 

[Sizzlechest]

Upgraded without a hitch. I had to download the new firmware using my phone. I tried two different browsers and I couldn't get the file listing.

The slightly more modern UI elements?

 

[sppmaster]

Unfortunately there are no newer QCA drivers nor newer Linux kernel. That is not to say that I neglect the modern UI.

 

[bartj12]

it is a pleasure to see such an active community around our 5+ year old router.
Hopefully it will never break and it can run @Voxel firmware forever

a BIG thank you again!

 

[IAMP373R]

Running voxel firmware for another year, no crash, no bug, just official firmware but better.
As always, thank you voxel supporting r7800 for another year.
BTW R7800 is good enough for me. WiFi 6 doesn't really provide any benefit over WiFi 5 Wave 2. May be WiFi 6e router become wallet-friendly, than i will consider upgrading.

 

[Kitsap]

Dirty update from 1.0.2.85SF. Smooth update and all is working well. THANK YOU!

 

[scooter2765]

[xinoup]
