    No. theMIROn explains nf_conntrack_fastnat values:
    • 0 - FastNat switched off,
    • 1 - FastNat works without URL filter. Its fastest option,
    • 2 - FastNat work with URL filtering support.


    Try to monitor CPU load when you pppoe connection speed at highest point. If CPU will be full loaded, then there is no option to raise router throughput.

    other fw recomandation

    do you think an older fw would do the trick - get more throughput?
    maybe k 2.4 based ?
    or newer - 3.0 Openwrt ?
    I don't need any features like QoS.
    IPv6 would be a good option (native DHCPv6 from ISP)...
    Botton line is - highest possible throughput - less features.
    Thanks for your help

    Yes, there is a whole bunch of alt. firmwares, but only this one uses native Broadcom SDK. So only this one utilizes routers hardware in a best way.

    Some part of Broadcom source code is still not avaliable, so wireless driver was unstable, AFAIK, till october on all other -WRT firmwares.

    IMHO.

    Webinterface gone

    Hello together,

    after flashing 1.9.2.7-rtn-r3825 my web-if is not accesible anymore (neither form WAN oder LAN). There's no server messag - it's just trying to load...
    ssh works fine and I can't see any complaints concerning this in dmesg.

    Any idea what went wrong/how to fix this?

    Thanks,
    pheidrias

    First of all, there was no http server for webUI changes for a long time.
    I guess that you lost your flashfs content due to FW size increase or some custom scripts works wrong.

    Second, dmesg contains only kernel messages. You should check "httpd" process existence & port listen by "netstat -an".

    Additionally, it can be common mistake - current(old ASUS) web-UI not resistive to external attacks from WAN.
    Or if you upgrading from old "-d" branch(you didn't write old FW version), your settings become wrong...

    Hi Ily,

    thanks for the fast reply.
    Would it be a solution to reflash the last version (WL500gpv2-1.9.2.7-rtn-r3702.trx)?

    In fact what I did was to flash from an even older fw (don't know which one) with saving of confing and flashfs. Then I reuploaded those settings. After reboot (my Asus hang in the reboot, so I had to hard-reset it), I flashed the alpha version.
    This time without second saving of the settings. If I remember right, I reuploaded the old settings - the ones from the first firmware.

    Could this be the problem (but why?)? Flashing two times subsequently and the reupload the flashfs/config?

    Okay
    After reboot into recovery and another reboot, the web-if is there up again!
    Unfortunately, the router was not accessible (no ping) in recovery mode. Hope, this isn't going to be a permanent problem...

    So I have no a explanation but a solution...these are the things driving scientist mad !

    Copy flash from WL500W to RT-N16. Is it possible ?

    Due to an hardware fault of my WL-500W, in the next days I'll replace it with a new RT-N16.
    I was running WL500W-1.9.2.7-rtn-r4051.trx, and I'll flash RT-N16-1.9.2.7-rtn-r4051.trx.

    Is it possible to save settings.cfg and flashfs from my old router and upload it on the RT-N16 (I know of different flash size) ?

    Thanks

    Max

    It should be... but I'd rather choose a manual reconfig.
    flashfs is always good to go.

    it depends on what kind of device you're using.

    if it's WL500gP WL500W or any of the R1 MIPS processor series I'd recommend using 2.4.20 kernel (2.6.22.19 kernel seems to be buggy and utilizies lots of CPU when there is network activity).

    for new RT-N routers 2.6 kernel is preffered.

    i dont know, i have wl500gpv2 and i went for 1.9.2.7-d-4257 and router froze (i had to plug it off and on) during the heavy torrent download (on PC), something that happened first time in years for me..

    before i used some rtn-r4xxx revision and router seemed to work fine

    what is the best/stable 1.9.2.7-d-rxxxx fw for wl500gpv2 ?

    not sure, but I think Oleg's original firmware (1.9.2.7-10).

    you might try latest -rtn as well, there were some bugs fixed.
