Time period for WPA3. Better WPA3 beta, than 14 years old and broken PWA2

No， Only has ar750s under in testing

Henry_Bruns · 2020-04-28T09:12:11.382Z

Is there a public beta version ?

wellnw · 2020-04-28T09:17:16.409Z

@Henry_Bruns
Thank you for your concern, we will release a test version for AR750S tomorrow or the day after tomorrow

@Henry_Bruns
You can download the firmware of the AR750S 19.07 version from the following link, but please note that uboot upgrade is currently supported,

Note:

Upgrade from openwrt-18.06 version to openwrt-19.07 version, currently only support uboot upgrade（openwrt-ar750s-3.200.img）
upgrade method refer to the following link:Debrick via Uboot - GL.iNet Docs
By default, WPA2/WPA3 mixed encryption is used. During the self-test, some Android devices failed to connect.
If the connection fails, you can modify it on the WIRELESS.

Hi,

quick test.

old Android 9 Sony phone : connect correctly in wpa2 psk (5GHz)
linux notebook : connect correctly in wpa3 (5GHz also)

No access yet to luci web interface?
No option in gl menu and it is redirected when trying http://192.168.8.1/cgi-bin/luci/

Thanks!

alzhao · 2020-05-01T16:53:48.612Z

The redirection may be just a browser issue?

typhoe · 2020-05-01T21:37:06.234Z

I don’t think.
I tried to force refresh and even tried the url directly in “incognito mode”.

rp201rp · 2020-05-02T01:15:25.133Z

I believe ar750s uses ath10 wireless
does this support 802.11w Management Frame Protection ?

alzhao · 2020-05-02T01:47:36.009Z

Can you just type http://192.168.8.1/#
Add # at the end

A friend has been using the firmware on two AR750S for a few days. He’s been up and running so far. He probably uses a WLAN for non WPA3 devices and a WLAN for WPA3 only devices. It looks like this avoids possible problems with not fully wpa3 compliant client devices.

Its looks like, WPA3 is supported on this time by:

Windows 10, Linux Kernel 5.1 by self and 4.19 by installed Kernel driver for used WPA3 device, Androide 10 and Openwrt 19.07 RC2. I dont know about Apple OS.

I have not tested the new WPA3 firmware because I only have smaler ar750 and ar300.

typhoe · 2020-05-04T15:29:23.017Z

That’s simply the url to get the gl-inet web management interface.

I’m asking about the openWRT one !

There’s a redirection on the usual openwrt url (and anything else in fact):
http://192.168.8.1/cgi-bin/luci/ → http://192.168.8.1/#

curl http://192.168.8.1/cgi-bin/luci/

I do extroot on my 750. have 19.07.2 clean loaded and use wpa3 no problem. also have freeradius3 and testing with wpa3_peap loaded.

I have tested wpa2/wpa3 mixed mode sae and eap (enterprise) and have seen wpa2 working and wpa3 clients stepping down to wpa2 making it useless. What I have also read is to never have two ap’s on the same radio with different security schemes which I tested and found it not to be necessary but actually worked fine. please don’t take my word for it but please test yourself incase my testing was in correct cause i really diddn’t believe it myself. maybe a new enhancement in 19.07.x? Note no mixing enterpise because that defaulted to enterprise

I’m trying to use IPv6 with this ar750s-3.200 firmware. I can’t seem to get any IPv6 addresses on my client machines on the LAN.

I have run this first to enable IPv6:

uci set glipv6.globals.enabled=1 && uci commit

But I can’t get IPv6 addresses to show up on my LAN. Does anyone have a working set of /etc/config/network, /etc/config/dhcp, and /etc/config/firewall to let this work?

(Not currently using a VPN, so not worried about information leakage.)

alzhao · 2020-05-18T09:11:44.328Z

If you do not mind I ask, did you reboot the router after you do that?

Pls also show /etc/config/network

satadru · 2020-05-18T14:49:24.801Z

I ended up getting it working by just putting this behind another router and setting it to be a dumb AP. (no firewall, bridged WAN, LAN, & Wifi).

WPA3 is working just fine though. I’ve noticed that other people are having issues with IPv6 and some routers with 19.07.x I wonder if that is an issue here?

satadru · 2020-05-18T14:51:15.147Z

(And yes, I did reboot the router.)

It may be that some of the a little more security conscious users are ready for a test of a more secure gl firmware…

Apple is supporting WPA3 since iOS Version 13

sfx2000 · 2020-07-26T23:59:10.518Z

There are still issues to be resolved with WPA2/WPA3 interoperability…

It’s mostly on older devices that do support WPA2, but the new epigrams can/will cause issues here on the client side…
