Did some maintenance on my WiFi network today... rolled out 802.11k and 802.11v, using DAWN on #openwrt. Things are snappier and more stable than before

А где бы найти форум по #OpenWRT, чтобы разобраться с настройкой модема DW5821e / T77W968?
Today the update to the new version 24.10.1 got stuck.
But another feed came along promptly:

Customized image builds via Firmware Selector and ASU/OWUT broken https://forum.openwrt.org/t/customized-image-builds-via-firmware-selector-and-asu-owut-broken/230500 #openwrt
The hardware was refurbished, including a quick analysis of the equipment. I quickly realized that modern and up-to-date network firewall firmware could be installed on both devices without much effort and high costs. Since #BSDRP , #OPNSense and #pfSense no longer support x86 (i586/i686) architectures, the choice fell on the current #OpenWrt and #DDWRT versions for x86 (i586/i686) architectures. 2/3

Managing Network Devices via #Orgmode Table and #OpenWRT Router
https://karl-voit.at/2025/04/18/openwrt-config-via-org/
I do maintain only one single table with all of my devices. I can control their IP and their ability to connect to the Internet (or not).
With this table, I do have a great overview of my devices and their IPs.
I thought you might like the idea ...
Easter hack: terraform-provider-openwrt
https://linderud.dev/blog/easter-hack-terraform-provider-openwrt/
Kind of wondering if there might be some yet unexplored potential with pairing a @flow3rbadge with a #Glinet battery powered travel router running #OpenWrt, like the Mudi or Puli. Anyone tried to stream audio or petal inputs from(/to) the @flow3rbadge over IP+Wifi to another Linux host? Maybe having the @flow3rbadge appear as a keyboard/sound device on the remote host?

My biggest issue with #OpenWRT so far is the upgrade process. As in, keeping the OS up to date. The package manager's upgrade functionality, which is fully baked into the OS and its GUI web interface, prominently displays a warning at the top that tells you not to use it. Don't upgrade packages, it can and will break your system: https://openwrt.org/meta/infobox/upgrade_packages_warning
Okay, then why is that feature baked into the OS at all?
Meanwhile, the sysupgrade feature, which is the recommended way to keep the OS up to date, is also baked into the OS, but only at the cli level. If you want to use the GUI web interface, you need to manually install the attended-sysupgrade package, after which point you can manually re-flash the OS whenever you want to using up to date packages, provided that you also (somehow) keep up to date about their releases without the use of a real tool to check for updates using the GUI. Why isn't that baked into the OS instead?
The whole thing is just very confusing.
If someone following me is interested, i started a terraform openwrt provider.
It's a veryvery shallow shim around the uci JSON RPC calls from OpenWRT.
Just hacking on this for the support I need. But others might be interested.
Schreck-"Sekunde" nach dem Upgrade meines TP-Link Archer A7 v5 WLAN-Routers von #OpenWRT Version 23.05.5 auf 24.10.1. Gerät hat gebootet aber das WAN-Interface war weg.
Unbedingt vor dem Upgrade ein Backup der alten Konfiguration machen. Wenn man das in der neuen Version wieder einspielt geht wieder alles.
Ist ein offener Bug (https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/17320#issuecomment-2805263724) und die Lösung habe ich von dort.
OpenWrt Developers released #OpenWrt version 24.10.1. https://openwrt.org/downloads
OpenWrt 24.10.1 - Service Release https://forum.openwrt.org/t/openwrt-24-10-1-service-release/230061 #openwrt
Mein selbst zusammen-gehacktes/kompiliertes #OpenWrt für den TP-Link WR841 v10 mit 16 MB Flash (statt vom Hersteller 4 MB) geht leider ständig in eine #Bootloop und startet nicht richtig, vermutlich weil es es das root-Dateisystem unter /dev/mtdblock4 nicht mounten kann.
Zurücksetzen/Reset hab ich schon mehrfach probiert;
- OpenWrt mit sysupgrade neu installieren
- mit firstboot alles resetten.
Hat nix gebracht.
Kann mir da jemand helfen?
Im #Failsafe-Modus kann ich es zum Glück starten.
Also getting my #rtl83xx switch #Linux kernel code changes more and more into a style shape that I start to like, that looks more upstreamable to me.
Sometimes I see can see that some code looks ugly, but might have some difficulties to come up with a solution that is more "pretty"/readable. I have some judgement for aesthetics, I think, but I'm sometimes lacking a bit of creativity for aesthetics in general. Aesthetics has such a huge search space, too many possibilities :D. #OpenWrt
OpenWrt Two will be a higher-performance router with 10 Gigabit LAN and WiFi 7 support
