Firmware 3.201_beta3

[aelserafy]

Does this beta address the issue mentioned here on Slate? As it wasn’t fixed in the beta2…
Also, where can I get the *.tar for the AR300m with the 128 MB nand?

[luochongjun]

The MT1300 already supports both of these functions in the 3.200 firmware.

[luochongjun]

Yes, the problem was fixed in the beta4 version, the beta4 version of ar300m is here.

[luochongjun]

Has been fixed in version 03.19

Any way to continue to use DLNA media server and network shares on AR750 and MT300N-v2 (or other limited flash devices) with latest firmware? Trying to download them results in a “not enough flash space” message… Time to think of using exroot?

[modumb]

just want to draw attention to a serious regression I’ve noticed on the latest betas:

3.201beta2 - AR750S - instability issues

I have been using 3.201beta2 since it was posted on the server. Since then, the experience with my slate has been quite unreliable: My huawei e1752 usb modem sometimes stops working and does not always reconnect even after a full reboot of the slate The slate sometimes spontaneously reboots As a result, I have not had a single uptime longer than 18 hours since using the firmware - normally the slate is left running 24/7 and would have days or weeks of uninterrupted uptime on 3.105 I…

3.201beta2 - AR750S - instability issues

To continue the report… the 3g modem was never stable under beta2 as it is/was with 3.105. Unfortunately, under beta4 of 3.201 the modem is completely unusable. Starting each time from a clean firmware (no settings retained), I have not yet managed to make the USB modem work for longer than 20 minutes and then only for just one time (did not work after reboot or ever again). I have spent an hour trying every approach I could think of to make it work again only once but I cannot make it happen…

EDIT:

at least with beta 4 there is some information showing up in the logs:

sqm won’t install–fails kernel dependency

this is the 3.18 build at 14:21 gmt for MT1300 (3.19 snapshot)

[alzhao]

Working on beta4 released Mar 18th, AR750s and sqm is OK.

[Rubycon]

With update qsdk-s1300-3.201-0319.img on S1300, nothing changed at all. Still version 3.105. Also same version of Adguard Home as before (v0.105.2).

[aelserafy]

I can confirm this. Tethering is not usable using Slate and beta4!

[luochongjun]

Have you installed all the optional plugs at the same time? Or do you have too many VPN profiles taking up space?

[luochongjun]

It looks like a problem with the power supply. Can you tell me the specification of the power adapter?

[luochongjun]

Is it Android or iOS, can you tell me the system version?

[luochongjun]

Fixed MT1300 kmod software library, please update and try again.

[luochongjun]

I tried to upgrade from the 3.105 reserved configuration and it worked fine. I didn’t have AdGuardHome on, but I don’t think it will affect the upgrade.

[reflector]

able to update packages Stubby and Unbound?
your repo is already many versions behind,

[luochongjun]

I will try to update it and if it is unstable I will go back to the old version.

[aelserafy]

Using a Netgear nighthawk M1.
Running on a 2A adapter.
And runs fine on the 3.105 (fixed vpn policies snapshot).

[Max3]

Nah, I’ve not installed anything. Just tried openwrt-ar750-3.201-0320 and the behaviour is slightly different. This is what I’ve done: installed new firmware (unchecked retain settings), then after reboot I refreshed the plugins. If I install File Sharing and Multimedia File Sharing, there’s no space left to install Luci. But after reboot I have “File Sharing ERROR: Not installed yet!” & “Multimedia File Sharing ERROR: Not installed yet!” messages.
Unlike 3.105 firmware, If I install Luci, there’s no space for luci-app-minidlna (I have a message saying Require approx. 7.7 MB size for 10 package(s) to install.). At least I can install luci-app-samba now, while in the previous beta it gave me a message saying that it “Require approx. 8 MB size”.

[Rubycon]

Strange. Tried it several times - without luck.
