Bekijk de volledige versie : 1.9.2.7-6c-pre5 available for testing
Well, this happened today... I've uploaded prerelease for wide testing. Use on your own risk as usual. The brief list of changes is as following:
samba large writes
pppoe ac name, service name
default gateway with non-local address
busybox-1.01 (+new applets)
dropbear-0.46
flashfs backup (engy)
firewall internal 80 wan accept (engy)
pppoe nomppe nomppc
nat/24 (techno report)
poweroff is working
hidden page enter key fix (engy)
System Setup | Services Page
samba cp1251
url filter removed
kernel-syn-recv.patch (oleo)
new firewall rules layout (unaiur)
The firmware was not carefully tested, so probably it will not work at all. :) Anyway, if you brave enough, here is the link (http://oleg.wl500g.info/1.9.2.7-6c-pre5/).
Try it and let me know of bugs found compared to 1.9.2.7-6b.
Once again: this is a pre-release with alpha level quality.
Hello.
Link doesn't work. it should be http://oleg.wl500g.info/1.9.2.7-6c-pre5/

is it possible to put the url filter in there again. i used it to block bad sites.
thnx,
Ed
URL filter never worked with custom firmware. Use Internet Explorer to filter sites.

o i didn't know that. i thought it worked.
But the router is much quicker now with the the latest custom firmware.
is there an other possibility to block sites in the router. otherwise i have to config 10 pc's.

flashfs in detail is decribed on the http://oleg.wl500g.info/ . It's used to store small files permanently.
Hi Oleg!
Thank You for Your new firmware release. I'd try this, and I think it's correct. Some idea: I'm a hungarian user, and I need the 852/2 codepage for the Samba, because the long filenames is wrong on my pendrive (and the Hungarian Time Zone is too (time.kfki.hu).
What You thinking from this?
Sorry From My Wrong English, and Thank You For Your Help!

...Ahhhh I see, sorry for My stupid question with time zone. My time server (time.kfki.hu) is installable, and I setup the (GMT+1.00) Czech Republic... for my time zone....but I need the 852 codepage :)

I also have no problems with ver. 6c-pre5, good work, Oleg. Thanks.
Is there a simple way to upgrade if I boot from USB disk?
Erasing the USB disk, copying the new FS and reinstalling all additional software would be a lot of work :-(
TIA
Martin
P.S. I know this is an alpha release, but sometime I will have to upgrade...

I don´t know if it´s the best way to upgrade, but I do:
make a complete backup of my usb stick
without putting the stick back into the wl-500g make the firmware upgrade
reboot and then put the stick back into the wl-500g
copy the files to the stick as in Oleg´s instuctions
re-enable booting from usb stick
All this is a matter of minutes and all settings (on the stick) are preserved.
It looks like my problem with long write failures is over:)

yes, exactly. There is no need to reinstall anything - changed files would be overwrited with newer.
Some idea: I'm a hungarian user, and I need the 852/2 codepage for the Samba, because the long filenames is wrong on my pendrive
852 is included in the firmware. You've to configure samba codepages manually (these lines are used for Russian):
nvram set usb_smbcpage_x=866
nvram set usb_smbcset_x=1251
nvram commit
Use search - there is a list on the MS site with the list of codepages.
Hi Oleg!
Once more problem, my plugged pendrive is unwriteable, I just can copy the files from pendrive to the PC, reverse isn't possible...
The Samba hidden read-write share is set "yes".
THX!

FAT32/NTFS? share$?
FAT32...and have another problem, since I changed the codepage, and charset settings, then the router is not synchronizing to the time server :(
"...Jan 1 01:00:20 dnsmasq[48]: using nameserver 82.144.161.11#53
Jan 1 01:00:20 dnsmasq[48]: using nameserver 82.144.160.179#53
Jan 1 01:00:21 PPPoE: connect to ISP"
...and that's all...

I did found the correct commandlines for my codepage-problem on another topic (http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=2376)
The correct hungarian codepage configuration is here:
nvram set usb_vfat_options=codepage=852,iocharset=cp852
nvram set usb_smbcpage_x=852
nvram set usb_smbcset_x=852
nvram commit
But then my pendrive is unwriteable in the future too, so I still need solving to my problem yet.
THX, and sorry for some unnecessary notes...

have you added a user to samba ?
Or try "force user" in smb.conf:
[harddisk]
path = /tmp/harddisk
writeable = yes
browseable = yes

After I upgrade my AP to the 6c-pre5, I have the problem that I can`t login over the webinterface. From all Networks (Wan, Lan, Wireless) I become the message "Connection refused".
All other functions, routing, etc. are working.
Somebody an idea to reactivate the webinterface? Or must I try? :rolleyes:
Hi
Well, i dont use url filter at the moment, thus not regarding it did never worked.
These filter are not very good as i read, the linksys ones for instance.
But i plan to use it, if possible only for the wlan port. So does anyone knows a nice fitting sollution for an url filter other then geting a transparent filter proxy to work ?
greets

After installing 6c-pre5 I followed the steps at macsat again for configuring ipkg and samba. After a lot of fiddling I can't find it. The smbd process is started 3 times, but which script could do this besides /etc/init.d/S97Samba or tmp/local/sbin/post-boot ??

Thanks to Oleg, my Microsoft MN-700 has been running the WL-500g firmware for a few months.
With 1.9.2.7-6b, I started having a problem establishing and maintaining a PPOE DSL connection. I think it may have been SBC trying to knock the router off because tech support gave me a lecture about the router when I called about the problem. When I bypassed the router and used XP's native PPOE connection, I didn't have any problems connecting and maintaining.
That said, I've been running 6c-pre5 with 48 hours uptime, and no connection problems.

I reset the complete AP and upgrade the fimeware again. Then all works.
Thanks for the SNMP Support @ Oleg
In what directory is the configuration file saved from the snmp server.
Hey, my first post here... just to let you know i flashed my belkin 7230 (hw version 1222dt with 4MB Flash/16 MB RAM and mini-PCI WL nic) with the latest 1.9.2.7.6c-pre5 fw and everything works fine. Coming from stock belkin firmware, this one's really great !
I'm experiencing some dropouts on the wireless lan part, still investigating on that, maybe the tx power settings or something. Also, I have to execute ntp manually after reboot to update date & time.
Greetz !

I have encountered no major problems with 6c-pre5 so far. Only one very minor "bug" ... I set Timezone to
(GMT+01:00) Germany
and in status page it then says
Fri, 28 Oct 2005 11:25:06 +0200 ... where 11:25 is exactly my local time
While the asus 1.9.5.0 firmware would tell me
Fri, 28 Oct 2005 10:25:06 +0100 ... what is more correct it seems (10:25+1hour is my local time again)
Used same ntp server in both tests (ptbtime1.ptb.de).
As I said, minor issue, but I wanted to mention it.
ASUS firmware does not handle CET timezone properly.

When your time changed from GMT+2 (DST) to GMT+1. I live in Czech republic and the time is changing on Sunday 30.10. from 3 to 2 hour. I think this is same in whole EU.

High Oleg,
as I can notice here, you're working on a fix of 1.9.2.7 version of your famous customized ASUS firmware. Of course I'm testing this beta version and what should I tell nothing to report here. Everything's working fine on 2 routers in different locations. Everything with exception of WDS with WPA-PSK encryption. :-( which is still not working. Because I need to setup a WDS connection to improve the radio quality here I'm faced to a dilemma. The new 1.9.5.0 Asus firmware is working fine and stable even in WDS/WPA-WSK mode, but of course the integrated functions can't be compared to your firmware. Unfortunatelly I'm not able to setup a working compiling environment here, so I can't try to apply the customiztions to the new versions myself. Is there any planning to offer a customized version of your firmware based on 1.9.5.0 of ASUS? Or could somebody of the community offer this service to us? Either I like the idea to work with WEP nor the idea to forget about ssh and all the nice enhancements of Olegs version. So what's about the rest of the community? Anybody else interested in WDS with WPA-PSK encryption?

This is offtopic.
Why do you think, that Afterburner does not work in the client mode? Are you sure, that your wl500g has afterburner enabled? Is that Deluxe or original wl500g?
If I wanted to move ASUS config interface from port 80 to somewhere else, is the http_lanport=80 nvram variable the right one? Of course, now this is defunct!
I think that the following files should be patched:
rc/watchdog.c
rc/http_ex.c
rc/services.c
rc/mtd.c --- not sure
Any comments on preparing such patch?
No comments, try compiling and using it yourself.
I had already used 1.9.2.7-6c-pre5 and worked smoothly.
Will the final release of 1.9.2.7-6c use the lastest version of BusyBox?
I saw the lastest version of BusyBox had lots of linux-based commands.
Like su, who, adduser, addgroup, last, poweroff ... almost double than the current vrsion.
Thanks!

I don't think so,
if this is a pre5 I think that the only modifications that oleg will do, are about bugs.. The new version of busybox maybe for the next version (but, who am i?)
I am using 1.9.2.7-6c-pre5. I had intermittent problems with some USB hard drives becoming inaccessible all of a sudden.
Last night I managed to reproduce the problem. I put a large file (approx. 7 GB) on an external USB harddrive, then I issued the following command:
md5sum filename
With two types of external USB harddrives the command run for a while and then stopped without giving any output. When I tried to look at the directory with the 7GB file no files were visible (in fact no data on the external USB harddrive was visible). After reboot of the wl500gx the data became visible again.
With one type of external USB harddrive the md5sum command produced a result and the data on the harddrive remained visible.
The two harddrives that became invisible were a Western Digital 250 GB and a LaCie 160 GB.
The one harddrive that remained working was a Freecom 40 GB harddrive.
If I can be of any assistance for further testing, please let me know (and tell me what to do or test :-) ).

is it possible to put the url filter in there again. i used it to block bad sites.
better use privoxy (www.privoxy.org) on your local PC (linux, windows or macosx), its alot more powerfull and will frees space in the router
if you want to just filter DNS, just add then to the /etc/hosts poiting to localhost so that dnsmasq will deliver the the network
