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 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.)
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?
One other vendor of WiFi4 and WiFi5 router, which use open wrt 19.07.x firmware and support mixed mode forWPA2/3 Personal, reporting its need by some clients to reconnect once (setup the connection to the client new by typing the password). I have the same experience with WiFi5 router which supporting mixed WPA2/3 to WiFi6 client devices. No problems, after first new logon by typing wifi password.
If I dont have seen wrong by one other vendor, on of minimum of his routers, offer now by same hardware a higher wifi channel bandwide and wifi speed. (changed from 20 to 40 MHz or from 40 too 80 MHz or like this by same Hardware)
