Hi,
Thank you very much for your attention and love.
We will continue to improve firmware functions and remain safe.
Bugs and issues:
A1, as we know that the kernel version of Flint3 is ancient, but in fact there are no risk vulnerabilities in the overall firmware. We will add patches for the firmware or SDK to fix vulnerabilities, so the firmware is safe.
A2, we will check this issue.
A3, you can try to choose 5GHz + 6GHz for MLO. Currently, MLO compatibility is slightly lacking, especially cross chip brands. Please connect 6GHz or 5GHz to fixedly use at single frequency.
A4, please install an OpenSpeedtest server to test network speed. In some wireless testing environments, iperf3 may not be able to fully run the bandwidth, since the compatible problem.
A5, this question may need to be read in depth. You can send this question individually and contact support@gl-inet.com. We will have dedicated technical experts to follow up.
A6, SSH to router, check whether the samba sever instance is still running:
/etc/init.d/samba4 status
ps | grep -E "smbd|nmbd"
netstat -tulnp | grep -E "139|445"
If the samba server instance is not running/inactive, it should not advertise. Is there another samba server?
Feature requests:
A, AP mode belongs to layer 2 (bridge), while applications such as VPN feature require layer 3 (routing), so in AP mode, it is impossible to enable VPN.
If you need to use a VPN feature, only in router mode.
B, this request doesn't make sense.
When the WAN connection fails, the VPN tunnel will also be disconnected, and even if fallback the Internet will also not work.
If you have any other needs, please clarify again.
About account sign up, please PM me about your Internet export IP, I would like to check if the discourse server configuration is too strict.
