RT-AC56U build will not work properly, kernel symbol mismatches breaking both the Trend Micro engine and the Tuxera filesystem drivers. I haven't checked the RT-AC68U but it's probably the same problem.

Check dmesg output when booting a firmware build to confirm that closed-source modules still load properly.

RT-AC87U cannot be compiled because we need a newer Quantenna SDK to match with the rest of the firmware code.

Currently, the only known good builds are for the RT-AC88U, RT-AC3100 and RT-AC5300.

Running alpha2 on N66U and as far as I can decipher from dmesg, I see no issues other than "cfi_cmdset_0002: Disabling erase-suspend-program due to code brokenness" which seems normal according to google. Thanks for compiling guys and love the new "tweaks and hacks" page.

Do we have a pic of the 'tweaks and hacks' page? :)
 
Nothing special there, they are just nvram settings that either do not fit elsewhere on the UI (like the networkmap hourly rescans), or are too advanced/experimental to be exposed alongside the regular settings where a regular user could shoot hitself in the foot (like the SMB2 option).

Thank you RMerlin. The only one of interest to me is the ability to use the RAM as it was supposed to as in 'do not flush caches'.

This is just a web front-end to the already existing nvram setting.

Hi, What is the correct temperature reading for AC88U? (running 380.58_alpha2-gd732843)
In the GUI under tools, it says: 2.4 GHz: 33°C - 5 GHz: 39°C - CPU: 58°C

But if i use SSH and type:

CPU temperature:
cat /proc/dmu/temperature: 58°C

For the radio temperature,
wl -i eth1 phy_tempsense: 27°C
wl -i eth2 phy_tempsense: 39°C

As you can see wl -i eth1 phy_tempsense shows 6°C difference from what the GUI reads. Is this normal or do I need to run another command?

Thanks in advance
 
Formula to calculate temp is:
GETTEMP1=`wl -i eth1 phy_tempsense | awk '{ print $1}'`
TEMP1=$((GETTEMP1/2+20))
 
Only two issues with AC56U:
1. LEDs are not working, only the power led is on.
2. Overclocking via nvram command still doesn't work. hggomes has managed to fix it, with his fork nvram commands stay after a reboot

@RMerlin I've seen Asus is using build .1574 in their AC5300 emulator, have they released the source yet? Thanks a lot!
 
The latest GPL available is 380_1354.
 
Interesting observation using Alpha 2 on an AC88U.

I don't recall seeing this Bad eraseblock message in older firmwares:

Does the new Broadcom SDK have a new NAND driver? Or, is my NAND having problems?
 
Alfa 2 is working very stable on ac5300, at least until now.
 
Is the trendnet malicious site check working? Using alpha1 but not getting any blocks of malicious sites.
