MT1300 (Beryl) now has 4.x firmware in beta (4.1.0 beta 3 is out)

Sorry, it is not final release version.
It is a error, 4.1.0 should not be in stable. This is the cause for us to test 3.216 by upgrading to version 4.x online. It will be removed later.

Ouch. Ok. We I’m running beta3 and so far so good. :grinning:

In the meantime I have remote access. Unfortunately, switching on-off the wifi does not work. Also rebooting the wifi does not work. Clients disconnected for whatever reason and I do not find any other way to reconnect them remotely than rebooting the router :frowning:

Is there still movement in the development?

Installed Beta 3, no problems for now.
Using Wireguard VPN and Adblock in OpenWrt Luci. Tethering on iPhone is working.

the gui for mwan3 in the section Multi-wan is nice. Still missing the future request to make this visable on the homescreen. Like a checkmark witch connection is used. and on loadbalancing all are checked.

Beryl uses openwrt 22.03 so the progress is more delayed. Recent snapshot 4.2 will address some issues with VPN policy and will be released not long.

Appreciate all the input here, alzhao.

I’ve been seeing the same “wifi radio is damaged” errors as dmurphy in dmesg on my Beryl unit running most recent firmware. What’s the best route to support and help you debug this issue? Happy to provide any necessary logs.

Also, is it possible for me to receive a replacement device as well? This one has become unusable. :frowning:

Anyone tried the 4.2 snapshot build? Any show stoppers?

Maybe just get an replacement first. Just send email to support at glinet.biz

Will do. Thanks for your help!

Noticed that when you click on a connection on the homescreen, you’ll get to the matching page. (in my example, the page for multi-wan). So this works.

Installed snapshot 4.2 Only thing not working is the side button. I use it for my VPN. Works on beta 3.

Hi. I have a MT1300 Beryl. Installed 4.1.0b3. I don’t have any wireless interfaces coming up at all. Looking at the logs I see that radio0 appears down. The log shows me restarting the device in luci. Does anyone have any suggestions to progress or diagnose further? I should add that I am tethered through the router at the moment, so that works. I’ve tried both types of reset too:

If you kept settings pls do a firmware set.
If still have this issues, then it seems that radio is damaged.

Thanks for getting back to me on this. I’ve reflashed the 4.1.0b3 firmware using uboot and unfortunately no change. Looks like the radio is dead unfortunately.

Does the latest MT3000 BerylAX use the same radio hardware? I might buy one if I can find one on the road here

Hardware are always the same.

Upgraded 4.2.0 snapshot on MT1300 but didn’t see the parental control and zerotier option. Is it not supported on MT1300 model. any idea?

Was answered earlier in the post

Thanks for the continuing support of this model, hope we can have the 4.2 firmware available soon!

I’ve given up on my beryl. Wish I’d researched more. It’s slow and unstable. Ordered a Slate Plus, hopefully more stable with the Qualcomm processor.
