[Cerowrt-devel] 3.10.23-1 wifi issues

[Sebastian Moeller]

Hi Dave,

so I tried to upgrade to 3.10.23-1 to test the wether the ath TX DMA error would be gone. But alas, I can connect to the router via wifi after the upgrade (I did the upgrade twice, once from the GUI and once from the common line). So I am switching back to 3.10.21-1 for the time being. The symptoms are that only the two -guest interfaces show up in the AP on my macbook and I cannot connect to those. This was the case with the fresh pristine cerowrt as well as after changing the configuration to what worked well so far and rebooting. I hope others have more luck with 3.10.23.

thank you for trying. In the olde days I was usually in the same place
as the lab and could far more easily test a build. These days I seem
only to be able to do the compile and integration steps in the wee
hours days or weeks  before I get time to get into the lab, and I am,
as always, grateful for yours and everyone's contributions towards
actually testing this stuff, but embarrassed to ever let something go
out the door that doesn't work.

May a better internet result of this, for all. Eventually.

(I haven't the slightest clue what broke this time)

I have the same problem. I cannot connect to wireless clients via g or n.

The clients do not receive DHCP ipv4 addresses.

Regression to 3.10.21-1 solves the problem, as you say.

Hi Fred,

	I think that Fred characterized the issue way better than I did. I agree that my symptoms are best explained with a missing ipv4 address (on the gw interfaces); but I also did not see the sw interfaces show up, that is my macbook only showed the gw's as available APs. So maybe it is the dnsmasq issue again that might require another kick to recognize all interfaces???
