Gl-sft1200 opal tor not working

Hello everyone,
when I start the service from the graphical menu it is shown [notice] {CONTROL} Bootstrapped 75% (enough_dirinfo): Loaded enough directory info to build circuits…

Help me pls.

Regards

can it work if change Exit Node?

unfortunately not even changing country too :smiling_face_with_tear:… tks for rapid answer

Could someone give me a hand?

Many thanks

I confirm you, that even changing tor exit node tor doesn’t work:
Tor version 0.4.6.8.
Tor is running on Linux with Libevent 2.1.8-stable, OpenSSL 1.1.1i, Zlib 1.2.11, Liblzma N/A, Libzstd N/A and Unknown N/A as libc.
Tor compiled with GCC version 7.4.0

Did you solve the problem? I have a similar problem on another GL device.

Question to support: is Tor supposed to work on the Opal router ? Anyone running Tor consistently on the Opal router ?

Thanks

Hi

We tested the Tor function on Opal with firmware v4.3.25 and v4.7.2, and it worked fine.

Could you please let us know if you encounter any problems and provide us with more details so that we can help you further?

It will stay at 0% forever; Tor LogConnecting…

the router begins to be unresponsive and I have to turn it off. On my home network I have 0 problems connecting to tor with my pc, laptop, etc…

Having rechecked the issue, it appears that Tor may be consuming excessive memory while fetching nodes.
This could potentially cause problems such as failed startup, the GL UI freezing or the device rebooting.

We will escalate this to our development team for further investigation and to determine whether a fix is possible.

However, please note that the Opel device has limited memory resources, and if the issue is indeed caused by the growing number of Tor nodes, it may not be fully resolvable on this hardware.

Honestly I thought Tor was one of the selling point of the router. The Opal datasheet ( https://static.gl-inet.com/www/images/products/datasheet/sft1200_datasheet_20240301.pdf ) in page 2 says that “Opal is pre-installed with Tor (The Onion Router). It protects sensitive personal information and browsing data by concealing online identity, defends against surveillance, and blocks third-party trackers.”

The screenshot does not even show a “Beta” label as I am seeing on the control panel.

When Opal was first released, Tor ran without issue.
However, as the Tor network has continued to grow, the increasing number of nodes may cause it now to require more memory than Opal can provide.

Our team is still investigating possible solutions.
If it turns out that this limitation cannot be resolved, we will make sure to update the related documentation so that it does not cause any misunderstanding.
