Hi,

after flashing the new 4.5.16 firmware to my X300B-GPS, the GPS option is gone in the web UI.
Flashed without keeping settings.
flashing the older 3.217 will bring GPS back to the UI.

Can someone confirm that?

Hi,

I’ve opened the bin files “openwrt-x300b-4.5.16-0329-1711704011.bin” and

The old firmware openwrt-x300b-3.217-0508-1683513926.bin in 7-zip.

In the old firmware I could find files “gps_test”, “gps_upload” in \usr\bin\

“glgps” in \etc\config\

“gl_gps” in \etc\init.d\

“glgps” in\etc\config\

In the new firmware “openwrt-x300b-4.5.16-0329-1711704011.bin” I couldn’t find anything relating to GPS anymore.

Hi, Upgrading to Firmware 4.5.16 removes the More Settings / GPS tab in GL-X300B-GPS?
Any plan to fix this?
