Beta problems with Opal (GL-SFT1200)

Routers
1

I’ve been using the 4.x beta for a long time because 3.x is just completely feature-starved on this little thing. It’s been fine until recently. I am posting in the general technical support forum because this is more a general beta problem than a problem with a modem, imo.

I have purchased a 4G modem (ZTE MF79U which works out of the box as it’s an RNDIS device - you can add it to your confirmed working lists).

  1. Since connecting it, the router frequently crashes between reboots so I have to reboot or power-cycle it twice or thrice to get it working (log of one such lockup is attached).

And I have to reboot it often, because:

  1. The modem sometimes just disappears from the router and doesn’t react to plugging it in and out, which does not happen when the modem is connected to my PC.
    That all happened on both an older and a newer beta.

And to really put the nail in the coffin,

  1. After updating to the newest beta, AdGuard Home’s admin panel is inaccessible, throwing a connection refused (even from the router’s ssh).

4.3.7 firmware (4.3.7-release7 2023-12-22 16:46:55(UTC+08:00)
The ram and cpu aren’t exactly being saturated to 100% so I reckon it’s not me running too much on it.

Log of the CPU stalls - partial because I could only really run dmesg

Seems like you wanna do too much with your Opal, which is an entry level for a travel router.

It is not powerful enough to handle AdGuard, the CPU is limited. That’s the reason they removed some features like network storage on v4 (beta)

As an Opal and Beryl AX owner, I recommend you just upgrading to something more capable, or stay on v3 which is stable

3

I don’t agree to be honest. It has like 35-40% free ram with AdGuard enabled, and RAM seems to be the only real limit. I’ve run Tailscale + VPN + 4G + AdGuard on it simultaneously and that really pushed its limits, but not AdGuard alone.

4

CPU is pretty limited as well.

Haven’t noticed the CPU limiting it that much personally, maybe initial boot is slow and opening UPX-compressed binaries, plus it’s a weird architecture, but other than that it’s plenty for a router

6

Solution for AdGuard’s admin panel returning connection refused

I removed AdGuardHome which got installed for some reason after the update, then removed gl-sdk4-ui-adguardhome and gl-sdk4-adguardhome, then ran:

opkg install gl-sdk4-adguardhome gl-sdk4-adguardhome

And lo and behold its admin dashboard came back

7

The RAM is limited and also the CPU, it uses an older architecture as far as I know, the Opal has a dual core 1Ghz GPU and as an example, the Beryl AX is also dual core at 1.3GHz and the difference is crazy, because it also has a more recent kernel. So yeah the Opal is a limited router, you can give Adguard Home a try for sure, but it’s not reliable because of the limits, you can use AdGuard because the freedom GL.iNET gives to their routers otherwise you wouldn’t be able to install it to be honest

8

I don’t think you have the full context on what the Opal is actually capable of. AdGuard Home runs perfectly fine with three lists totalling over 57k entries. That setup has never given me any issues apart from right now where it installed the wrong package between updates. It’s also perfectly capable of running Tailscale via a custom repo, although GL.iNET don’t provide a UI for it. Both at the same time is a little tricky - you’ll be filling like 90% of the ram, but it does work and hasn’t crashed for me for weeks of uptime in that setup. I’ve since of course uninstalled Tailscale to give the 4G modem integration a little breathing room.

The only parts where it actually gives me trouble is if I do something stupid like running Tailscale, AdGuard and WireGuard all at the same time, while accessing its webui and also transferring files over WiFi and gigabit Ethernet - then it actually just hangs for half an hour. Makes sense, its ram and cpu are both being used to 100% in that case.

Well and also the fact that it uses the SiFlower architecture which is kinda proprietary and has no official OpenWrt support, which means it’s perpetually stuck at 18.06.

9

Well I used an OpenVPN Client and some basic functions like DoT and just by doing some speed test I saw a high CPU usage, not at its peak but yes. On the Beryl AX it barely shows CPU usage doing the same thing. I personally wouldn’t use AdGuard on an Opal after all the tests I did, I wish it had OpenWrt 23 support

10

Yea a modern OpenWrt version would be nice, but I don’t think it’s up to GL because SiFlower are the ones not providing a proper SDK or drivers iirc

11

Something like this is written to the log when the modem unexpectedly disconnects. Is it really a hardware issue? Because it works for tens of hours and just out of nowhere does this.

I understand limiting features to conserve memory… but why remove usb/network storage? It’s a core feature and the main reason i selected the Opal as a travel router. I don;t use adguard, tailscale, etc. But I do take my files with me on external flash and hard drives (with their own power supply)

And not being able to install it after the 4.x update… That’s bad.

Rick

13

I would assume that this feature is not used by many people. I mean … you bought an router, not an NAS :wink:

And samba is very resource hungry, that’s why it create problems.

14

The solution for me was to swap the power supply, now it almost doesn’t happen anymore.
