Theoretical Performance

Create the base directory (I use /Openwrt) and make it writable by your normal user account (non-root) Wait about 4 minutes for the router to finish storing the firmware into its flash memory. When finished, the Power LED turns solid white and the wireless LEDs light up.

Recommended configuration (build is the master defaults (CPU has been further optimized as per below), you’ll have to do all the rest yourself): However FTP is insecure, you can use FTP with SSL/TLS but I do not know how easily it can be setup. Speeds at 2.4GHz are rather more pedestrian; I’ve seen higher close-range speeds from cheaper models. However, you’re probably going to want to use 5GHz whenever possible. Possibly also create a file share for transferring files. For example, I need /media/windows-share to easily move files from Virtualbox to PC. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. Read our editorial mission & see how we test.

This can all be done with DDWRT but requires more setup is perhaps less convenient but you get access to your whole home network and it is more secure. cpu cpu1: _opp_add: duplicate OPPs detected. Existing: freq: 600000000, volt: 900000, enabled: 1. New: freq: 600000000, volt: 900000, enabled: 1 This is what I’ve added beyond turning on the majority of the dawn features (I don’t think the broadcast command does anything): We need to use a pointed object such as a pen or a paper clip to press and hold the Restore Factory Settings button, located on the bottom of the router, for over five seconds until the Power LED blinks amber.

What most of us do is make a secure connection to our home network using VPN, via this secure connection you can connect to anything on your network including your USB storage of the router. I just read through the whole thing and IMHO you did an outstanding job. It's covered everything I can think of with links. The r7800 has been around for a while so this tutorial timing may be a little off. You might want to try to upload firmware to your router via TFTP if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms: The R7800 is the first product on the market to support 160 MHz bandwidth mode. Since there is not actually 160 MHz of contiguous bandwidth in the 5 GHz band available in consumer routers today, this is implemented as 80 MHz + 80 MHz.bin_filename=QCA9984/hw.1/athwlan.bin swap_filename=/lib/firmware/QCA9984/hw.1/athwlan.codeswap.bin Now comes the fun part. Netgear does a terrible job of communicating to its customers exactly what each router's model number actually is. Note: With the current button hotplug procd functionality also the button scripts in /etc/rc.button need to be executable. (E.g. files/etc/rc.button/BTN_2) There are links to configuration options like the one Per Yngve pointed to in the Usefull Information /Wireless settings section

New: freq: 1000000000, volt: 1000000, enabled: 1 Due to that, you will need TFTP flash once to upgrade/downgrade from the older builds (17.01.x or 18.06.0-rc1 or earlier). Sysupgrade works normally after you have upgraded to 18.06.0 or newer. Rebasing with Master, OpenWrt 23.05, or OpenWrt 22.03 (make sure you are in the openwrt folder, rebase with the latest updates - then you can build as per above) #Remove “rebase” commit (this gives you a clean build environment - it deletes the final bin content and diffconfig files, I’d copy the diffconfig to a separate folder before running this command) NETGEAR took its first step into the functional MU-MIMO router market with the R7500v2. The v2 swapped out the still-waiting-for-its-MU-MIMO-firmware Quantenna 5 GHz radio for a QCA9980 4×4 radio SoC with working MU-MIMO. But since it left the QCA9880 3×3 radio handling the 2.4 GHz side, the R7500v2 remained an AC2350 / 2400 class router.To answer the question by @Tusc in Build for Netgear R7800 I ran the OpenSSL benchmarks with my LEDE 17.01 release branch build: The 'numbers' are in 1000s of bytes per second processed. pci 0001:01:00.0: 2.000 Gb/s available PCIe bandwidth, limited by 2.5 GT/s x1 link at 0001:00:00.0 (capable of 4.000 Gb/s with 5 GT/s x1 link) After realising that the HTB qdisc is part of the problem for R7800 I looked into the original sources of HTB at Linux upstream and noticed that there are a bunch of performance patches that have been implemented in Linux stable after 4.4 that we use here. https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/?h=linux-4.8.y&id=a9efad8b24bd22616f6c749a6c029957dc76542b I connected only one computer via Gigabit Ethernet at each end of the bridge. Baseline tests using Ethernet between the two computers show the Ethernet link capable of a bit over 940 Mbps in both directions with each direction run separately. So the hardwired part of the link shouldn’t be a limiting factor. The bridge R7800 reported a best case link rate of 1560 Mbps during this test.
