was there something wrong with release 4, why has it been superseeded this quickly?

[K3rn3l_Ku5h]

The release note seems to be the same as far as I can tell. Their is a new CVE report for cross site scripting in openWRT:
https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2022-41435
https://www.opencve.io/cve?vendor=openwrt

Zerotier can’t be installed again…
Collected errors:

• pkg_hash_check_unresolved: cannot find dependency libstdcpp6 for zerotier
• pkg_hash_fetch_best_installation_candidate: Packages for zerotier found, but incompatible with the architectures configured
• opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package zerotier.

Required dependency package “libstdcpp6” is not available in any repository.

Random MAC address feature doesn’t work properly.
It can change MAC address only once.
So I have to move to another column and then come back to get more MAC addresses randomly.
It’s a small bug though.

my isp uses vlan id 0 and no username/ password. trying to setup pppoe but it doesn’t let me put 0 as vlan id or leave empty user/pass fields…

Hmm someone tested wireguard server here?

Im not sure if I need to reset config, but I cannot communicate with the server, the logs say that wgserver link is not ready.

I upgraded from beta3 to 5 keeping the configuration.

[K3rn3l_Ku5h]

Think you might need to reset or remake only way I found when I was having issues with a achieved config file I used. I would update without saving packages or settings then load the config achieve. Not sure what caused it but after release3 firewall zones and Ipv6 started doing weird things like trying to resolve DNS when the VPN only allowed ipv4.

I think its the switch from IPtables to NFtables.

vlan id 0 means no need vlan. So just leave it blank.

For pppoe usename and password, can you input random?

No idea why it is blank as well.

It is PPPoE or DHCP?

[danbratu]

is PPPoE. it doesn’t work with random. neither with vlan id 911 (alternate to vlan id 0). this is not a big issue as i can use their router in bridge mode…

[alzhao]

Maybe you can use Luci to config. You don’t need username and password in luci for PPPoE.

We are removing this restriction on our UI as well.

Hi all,
I am a new user to GL-iNet products and OpenWRT. I have just bought the Flint and installed the 4.1.0 R5 beta. Most things to me seem to be running fine for me, however I cannot get Wireguard to start? I click on the generate config which returns a success, but it does not populate the Dashboard. Tried with OpenVPN which seems to work as expected.
Thanks, in advanced.

[alzhao]

@ShockedTrout

I click on the generate config which returns a success,

Can you post screenshots?

[ShockedTrout]

This is the Dashboard view.

[K3rn3l_Ku5h]

The wireguard server screen should have changed to this when you clicked Generate Configuration.

Did this window or just success popup?

Try a private browser window and clear your browser cache.

My flint is running 4.1.0 release5 and is not having this issue.

alzhao How does someone delete a wireguard server, cannot find a delete configuration in GL.iNet Admin UI.

GL.iNet

[ShockedTrout]

Thanks, I have already tried clearing the cache, private browser and another browser but no luck.
The success box is all that pops up, it’s very quick and doesn’t appear to be doing anything else.
FYI I have used Edge and Chrome in both normal and incognito mode.

It worked fine before updating the beta.

Thanks

[K3rn3l_Ku5h]

Update plugins maybe?
Have you restarted the router and still get the same result?
Did you retain settings and packages when you upgraded?

This is a Beta so there are going to be some issues. I can’t reproduce the problem on mine so It might be the install or a missing package.

[ShockedTrout]

Hi,
No plugin updates avail.
Restarted router a few times, same result.
I retained the settings during the update.
Can I ask what plugins you have installed for Wireguard on your setup?

It is more than possible that I have done something wrong. Loving the beta compared to the old one.

[K3rn3l_Ku5h]

I just have standard GL.iNet plugins but I have added a some stuff in LuCI such as SQM, Netdata, collectd. LuCI does say that a

It might be the retained settings did not transfer correctly.

If possible I would do a fresh install of the Firmware 4.1.0 release5 do not retain settings and set everything back up manually. Once that is done you can make a config file in LuCI of everything and use that between upgrades

[danbratu]

sure. it works from Luci, this is the way i made is working but it would be nice to be able to do it from the custom/default webgui. Luci is not for everybody…
