This latest update is really great. I am getting almost 6MB/s for VPNs now.
Sorry if it's been discussed, but I've found no answers to this 'till now...
I've been constantly upgrading John's fork updates since the first release but every month or so my router starts failing and logs these:
"Jan 26 11:27:10 openvpn[30830]: Diffie-Hellman initialized with 512 bit key
Jan 26 11:27:10 openvpn[30830]: Cannot load private key file server.key: error:0B080074:x509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch
Jan 26 11:27:10 openvpn[30830]: Error: private key password verification failed
Jan 26 11:27:10 openvpn[30830]: Exiting due to fatal error"
I'm getting connection issues on all devices once that happens and the only way to get past this is to actually reboot the router. Anyone happens to have a workaround? I'm not really sure what SSL cert the error refers too, nor why would the mismatch occur.
Thank you.
I'm at a loss on this one....how did you generate your certs/keys for your OpenVPN server? Built in generation or did you gen them yourself?
I did not...
I don't use an OpenVPN and I've never generated any keys on this router :|
Wish I had a explanation for you, but I'm at a loss. Nothing specific that I did.
But, when I had my compile difficulties, I made an offering to the router gods....maybe they smiled upon us
EDIT: I did forget to ask....are you running an OpenVPN client on the router? If so, you probably got at 30-50% throughtput improvement just by loading the code.
My guess is, it's the reboot involved with the firmware upgrade that did it. I've seen plenty of these placebo posts myself over the years...
I did a factory reset, then installed v7 today.
After configuring the router, I had a look at the system logs. I saw that a VPN tunnel was active there, so I went to the VPN settings, and sure enough it shows server 1 running.
The On/Off is Off.
Any ideas as to why this would be?
BTW- Best U/D speeds I've seen on my 56U, running great on Comcast.
Running v7 here on N66U and had no such issues all VPN is shut down and disabled by default. As mentioned did you factory reset after the install ?
I gave up im back on 374_43_2(v7) fork and im gonna stick with it.
376.xxx give me slow loading internet pages
378.xxx both asus and merlin, im loosing IPV6(6rd) each days, need reboot,somethings new each days in logs also ....
Well... i dont need bells and whistles , i just want a router to route
V7 fork is awesome, fast and stable.Never lost ipv6 with it and internet pages loading instantly
Sorry for my english
Good job john
What I found is that although there wasn't any 'labelled' 68P changes, buried in the wireless initialization code was a special set of wireless parameters for a specific country code and regulation revision (Q2/40). Turns out these are the default values in the 68P cfe. Since the wireless is closed source, not sure what all of them do...so I can't say whether what you saw was expected or not. But, what's there now matches the 'official' release. Unfortunately the unknown is if they changed the driver too.....so....
Looking forward to you reporting back!
Roger i am using a different router N66U with this build and i am getting 19/20 while testing IPv6. Not sure what the difference might be just a FYI..

Well, geeze, after reading the last couple of replies, I just asked myself the same question. Same firmware, should be the same resulting ip6tables rules. So I just rebooted my router, and guess what? Got 19/20 on that test as well. Not sure what happened there, same thing happened when I tried 378.50_Beta the first time...then jiggled things around a little, and went up to 19/20. Odd, but okay, I guess.
I suppose that extra reboot when I see 17/20 on that page is now part of my firmware upgrade procedure *smile*.
Installed V7 on friends N66U router, and even he saw an improvement in web response right off the bat.
Before that, he was running Asus OEM firmware.
I won't argue with success
