Firmware v1.9.2.7 CR4 [Oleg]

Yes, that's right.

done that,

I'm not sure what the key is to get it working
after getting the configuration working, I removed ALL changes I made to get it working and now it stays working.. thus probably there is a nvram value left empty or something that prevents WDS from working correctly

I got this tip (put all mac addresses in the list) a long time ago in one of the message about WDS.

So, first it would not work, then you made it working and after that you removed the settings, put some of the settings back and now it still works.
You now have only one mac address in the list?

I couldn't find a solution to my problem in this thread so I'm making this post.

I use WDS for internet connection and my setup is as follows. I have two physical locations, say Location1 (with router1 and wired+wireless clients) and Location2 (with router2 and wired+wireless clients). Router1 is connected to internet via 1Mbps ADSL on one end and on the other end through WDS to router2. Router1 and Router2 are about 70 metres apart and in visual contact. So far I had very good connection between routers, with effective data throughput of 1MByte/s (8Mbps). WDS mode is set to hybrid. I use WEP-128 bit encryption.

My problem is this: Ever since I upgraded fw from 1.8.1.9 (ASUS) to 1.9.2.7-4 (custom) I experience hickups in traffic on Location2. Traffic is very irregular and stalls sometimes. Effective data throughput has dropped to 100-200 kBps. If I ping router1 from Location2, some pings get lost (the longer the ping packets, more of them get lost). At Location1, everything is normal (for wired and wireless clients).

Has anyone else experienced this? What could be the cause? Could it be reduced output power, which was mentioned in ASUS release notes for this release?

Please help!

correct

I removed all modifications which were not present before, and then it stayed working.. so something was left in nvram probably..

Bogdan, if you do not need the special features of the custom firmware, then try the ASUS 1.9.4.0 firmware.
Otherwise change the channel value to a high number and/or try a high power value (60 - 84).

im using 1.9.2.7-4 olegs firmware.

[tomilius]

I think that may be a wondershaper issue. Try not using it and seeing if it goes away.

Do you use ASUS bandwidth management page? If so, probably the values, which you've specified are too high.

[jimmy]

well ive disabled the bandwidth management , but it keeps showing
May 8 15:29:47 kernel: HTB: quantum of class 10011 is big. Consider r2q change.
ive updated to 1.9.2.7-5 oegs firmware and know shows
May 8 15:30:13 kernel: et1: rx stuck suspected

any sugestions?

Hi Oleg,

I installed the firmwire update to my ASUS WL500g. The problem is, it changed my password or/and username. Could you help me by e-mail me these codes? (dakraam@gmail.com)

Thank you in advance,

From which version did you upgrade ?
did you try the default username/password "admin" and "admin" ?
Try reseting your unit to factory settings using the reset button.

By the way, you are not using the latest fimware from Oleg, here you can get the latest one : http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=4145

Read FAQ, you've to reset to defaults. Better use 1.9.2.7-7c.
