If you want to, how do you set stubby to not use round robin?

use putty client to access your router via ssh your routers IP.
copy and paste nano /jffs/scripts/stubby.postconf into terminal +press enter
copy and paste script below into terminal

#!/bin/sh
CONFIG=$1
source /usr/sbin/helper.sh
pc_replace "round_robin_upstreams: 1" "round_robin_upstreams: 0" $CONFIG

hit ctrl+X and y enter

copy and paste
chmod a+rx /jffs/scripts/stubby.postconf
into terminal +press enter

then copy paste service restart_stubby
into terminal + press enter

Alternatively you can do

cat << EOF > /jffs/scripts/stubby.postconf
#
#!/bin/sh
CONFIG=$1
source /usr/sbin/helper.sh
pc_replace "round_robin_upstreams: 1" "round_robin_upstreams: 0" $CONFIG
EOF

and chmod a+rx /jffs/scripts/stubby.postconf

and service restart_stubby

if you don't want to use nano

Thanks, maybe, RMerlin can include a builtin option to turn it on or off.

merlin is going to keep it as simple as possible. that is why he has the customization features built within, he made it to be a stand alone one size fits all unless you want to turn on SSH and make a custom script.

Not unless it's really pain but I think John already have this implemented in his fork so it might not be too difficult to add the option.

It's not about the difficulty, it's about avoiding feature creep syndrome, leading to new users constantly asking how to configure something because they are lost in the large number of available settings. And also each new setting requires a bit of nvram, which is getting really limited for some models.

No problem, absolutely understood your reasons.

Hello, I am using RT-AC68U_384.11_0.trx and faced very interesting problem - my router broadcasts two different MAC addresses to my provider simultaneously after rebooting of it. The second of MACs starts broadcasting in couple of seconds afters the first one starts after the router rebooting and then both are broadcasting simultaneously. The first one is own MAC of router. The second one is cloned from my PC to replace first one in http://[ROUTER'S IP]/Advanced_WAN_Content.asp
If I try to change MAC to any third then my router begins broadcasting of three different MACs simultaneously...
As result my Internet connection speed is cutting twice or triple depending of number of MACs which are broadcasting simultaneously...
I am not sure after which of exactly firmware updates this problem appeared, but now it exists.

Do anybody know how to fix that manually without reseting router to factory defaults? I am not sure that reseting will help (anyway I am not ready to do that and setup all again hoping for existing any faster solutions).

A reset will likely clear this up and if it hasn't been reset for a while, you could really benefit from a reset. If you don't want to reset you can always downgrade to the version you came from, it usually works.

Do you need to clone the MAC for the connection to work? What is the output of this command?

nvram show | grep hwaddr_x

Maybe exists any manual solution to fix that? Otherwise I will have to waste a lot of time to setup all my services again ((

I need to use only one MAC - cloned one
If I use this command then I see only one MAC, but my provider see two different at the same time...

nvram show | grep hwaddr_x

This command when ran on my router comes up with nothing, I assume this means no cloned mac, is this correct?

Definitely looks like some NVRAM issue which a reset will most likely fix. But I think the easiest solution is to contact your ISP and ask them to rebind your Mac address to the default Mac address of your router so that you don't even have to do a clone.

 

[skeal]

These are the results I get:

# nvram show | grep hwaddr_x
size: 67555 bytes (63517 left)
wan0_hwaddr_x=
wan1_hwaddr_x=
wan_hwaddr_x=

# nvram show | grep hwaddr_x

wan0_hwaddr_x=
wan1_hwaddr_x=
wan_hwaddr_x=

If you remove the last "_x" from the command you'll see all the Mac addresses, _x only show cloned ones and if you're not using any cloned Mac addresses it'll show empty.

Thank you sir!!

I suppose that correct

it seems as my router broadcasts outside two MACs: wan_hwaddr and lan_hwaddr

I hope to not do that and I explained above why. So I am trying to find other solution

Second part of my answer might help you.

 

[ukrainer]

What is the output of:

 nvram show | grep hwaddr_x

Second part of my answer might help you.

xxx@RT-AC68U-E848:/tmp/home/root# nvram show | grep hwaddr_x
wan_hwaddr_x=54:ee:xx:86:32:yy
wan0_hwaddr_x=54:ee:xx:86:32:yy
wan1_hwaddr_x=
size: 54158 bytes (11378 left)

And about second part of your advice - I did it, but the problem is in that my router show to my provider information that I am connected fro two different interfaces with different MACs at the same time. So this solution don't helps. But thanks for idea.
