Hi guys,

First of all, thanks for the incredible amount of work behind this project. I was wondering if there is a way to preserve my entware installation after a factory reset. As the installation resides in an external drive, my guess is that you just have to save the user scripts at the jffs partition that start the services, but I want to be sure before I do it.

Thanks!
 
yes, backup and restore the jffs scripts. I guess there is an automated tool that does this but I just do it manually.

I'm still using 378.55 which doesn't have that option. I've been waiting for the wifi kinks of the AC68 firmware to get worked out.

That's why it's useful to have the model/firmware in your signature! :D

P.S. I'm probably one of the lucky few that doesn't experience any perceived 'wifi kinks' on my RT-AC68U.
