New Asus RT-N16 Router

[Bohlendach]

When you do some work at samba after a reboot you can see the usage increasing btw.

You were right. I killed Samba and the usage of memory stayed on 33 mb.

Now I only run Samba when needed and start it with Xinetd.

Good idea, but transfers might be a bit slower

read some explenation here: http://us.generation-nt.com/memory-e...195739711.html

also these pages: http://www.linuxinsight.com/proc_sys_vm_hierarchy.html
especially this one: http://www.linuxinsight.com/proc_sys...op_caches.html

Hi guys! It's been almost a year since my last visit but you know... I had a perfect asus WL-500GP v2 with Oleg's fw and I was happy all the time Yesterday I've bought an RT-N16 and the problems, unfortunately, begun.

As you all know the Asus FW sucks, so I tried Olegs and ddWRT to test if I get better performance, since I have 1 media centers (cat5), 5 laptops (wifi), 3 smartphones (wifi) and a homeserver (cat55), all connected to de RT-N16.

Strangely I got no wifi neither with oleg's neither with ddwrt unless I put them exclusively on channel 1. I don't get it, how is this happening? Can you help me?

I use open system security with mac address access restriction.

Thank you very much and sorry for my English.

Hi, was the WIFI working with original ASUS fw?

Interesting: (https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/6580)

"Would be nice. I have not seen any info if bcm4718 is supported by b43, and I don't know if the proprietary Broadcom driver works with newer 2.6 kernels. Currently the 2.6 builds available (dd-wrt, Tomato, stock) use kernel versions around 2.6.22-24 and the proprietary Broadcom driver. OpenWrt trunk currently uses 2.6.3x kernels."

As you can dig from OpenWRT svn, they receive contribution with partial sources of broadcom driver 5.10.56.27 for MIPS.

It use in our firmware requires deep tests, since we hasn't any knowledge about binary part of it. After this, we should try to port Broadcom SDK to newer kernel. It is large task too...

Thanks for replying!

Yes it was working with the original FW.

Thanks for replying!

Yes it was working with the original FW.

In that case you can try those:

1. Load default settings /reset on the fw you are using.
2. Check if you wifi is working after loading defaults, before you costumize any setting.
3. Try to connect to the router in other computer, and see if the same problem is happening.

No java on the router...
furthermore... isn't jdownloader using a gui?

Hello
My old wl500gp(oleg firmware) I can use usb sound stick with build in driver(soundcore.o and audio.o) and play music with madplay.
Now I turn to rt-n16(oleg firmware), but I can't find audio driver. Can I use usb sound stick to play sound on rt-n16?

Thanks,

Do you have this noise on your pc as well?

a tip:
Not sure if you can set the volume, but the soundcard should be on 100% and some speakers should only little amplify it otherwise you amplify a lot of noise

Great to hear. I've upgraded to the latest version, loaded modules but need to test it out with some player when at home. Thanks.

Is there anyone to help me understand how to make bluetooth work (i.e. how to add/build necessary modules e.g. bluez.ko)?
EDIT: OK, probably not that easy, as I imagined - obviously so if you are not aware of easy solution just ignore my question

Very thanks wpte, I loaded latest rt-n16 firmware and modules from your site.

I never test this soundcard with pc, but this soundcard work very well with wl-500gp(oleg firmware+soundcore.o+audio.o+madplay+default volume+earphone) and no noise came out.
I played sound on rt-n16 with same environment(different only driver modules).
I tryed low volume, but noise still come out.
