    On my router is no top command. Is there anything else ??

    Ok, if I telnet to the router and login as root, there is no Top. But if I login as marc, that will give me all the programs I have installed, and Top is there. But I installed KFurge's image and followed his instructions to personalize the router.
    I am not sure, but I bet that Top is amongst the new Busybox commands.

    Correct me if I am wrong

    Yest, top is part of the upgraded optware busybox. Regarding your problem, you probably don't have /opt/bin in your $PATH when when logged in as root.

    I have to say a big thankyou to kfurge, d3viant and everyone on these boards.
    Glad you hung in there. I've got another one for you... In addition to the gpio trick, my box is running at 300MHz now... It used to run at 264Mhz.

    I want to do a little more testing before turning this trick out into the wild, but google can unlock all of the secrets if you're brave enough.

    Guys, running @300MHz without a heatsink on the CPU is not recommended...

    Yeah, I know. That's why I'm planning on taking some thermal measurements before and after prior before posting. The how-to won't come without a recommendation.

    Talking A big improvement

    Just installed the ksoftirqd fix. It makes a big difference to my system. My two mapped Samba drives no longer take forever to respond. Another headache gone thanks to kfurge and the rest of you.

    Thank you!

    Thumbs up

    I installed the ksoftirqd fix as well, this seems also solve the ftp problem that I facing before. Before apply the fix, when ftp from Internet to the box, the ftp connection will lost at about 250 to 300MB of file transfer, and I needed to wait for at least one hour before I can login the box through ftp again.

    After apply the ksoftirqd fix, I have try 3 files which both > 1GB, both can transfer successfully.

    Again, thanks KC for your great effort!!!

    I simply added echo "interrupt=no" > /proc/miscio/power_enable_config

    At the end of the rc.local file before fi.

    Am I doing it right?

    The exact location is not critical, but mine is within the "rc.local.done" if statement so it only runs once at startup.

    Question is this still applicable?

    Hi K.C. -

    Just wondering, if this is still applicable to your WL700gE_kc_1078_02.nas firmware?

    Is it already in there? But i dont seem to see it in the rc.local file.

    I think A 15% performance gain is a lot specially if mldonky tops up to 90%.

    Thanks,
    Lloyd
