  4. @madneon:
    I'm not sure what's out there for simple access points. You'll have to do some searching for your particular model.
    To determine if you can run the ND (updated broadcom wireless driver) version, see this thread at the forums

  5. I can't start the VPN service, my first time on this firmware.
    Can someone give me a suggestion?

    Here is what I found on log file.

  7. Could please anyone confirm if this firmware has USB support? I need it for my wl-500gP v2.

  8. @thezerox:
    It does not have USB support. However, there are builds that include my changes plus USB support. For instance, see here.

  9. I'm having DHCP problems with this build. I was having no such problems with 1.23. The error is this from the logs:

    udhcpc[295]: Sending renew...
    udhcpc[295]: Lease lost, entering init state
    udhcpc[295]: Sending discover...
    udhcpc[295]: Sending select for xx.xxx.xxx.xxx...

    udhcpc[295]: Sending select for ...
    udhcpc[295]: Sending discover...
    udhcpc[295]: Sending discover...

    The router never gets an IP. My ISP is Charter.

  10. I have a bug report. If you disable compression, it writes "comp-lzo no" into the config file. This seems to be incorrect, as compression comes on anyway. I think the comp-lzo line needs to be left off entirely if no compression is to be used.

  11. @Ryan:
    Not according to the OpenVPN manual. The values can be "yes", "no", or "adaptive".

    It looks like you're right. However, when I use the GUI to select the no option, in the config file it is "comp-lzo no", yet compression is still on. I've been playing with it, and there doesn't seem to be a way to get it to connect to a non-compression openvpn server. (If you try it connects but the packets never make it, probably because the client is compressing them and the server isn't decompressing, so the checksums fail horribly.) Even with comp-lzo no in the config, the /var/log/messages has a log line that indicates that the compression code is initializing and in use. The sample OpenVPN config file that comes with the package just uses "comp-lzo" with no option to turn it on, and comments out the line to turn it off. I'm wondering if the config parser doesn't do what it ought to and just turns on compression as soon as it sees comp-lzo?

  13. @Ryan:
    comp-lzo with no second parameter is the same as "comp-lzo adaptive". You might try that.
    Here's something else to try:
    1. Start the client
    2. SSH/telnet to the router
    3. Run "killall vpnclient1"
    4. Edit /etc/openvpn/client1/config.ovpn to get rid of the comp-lzo line
    5. Run "/etc/openvpn/vpnclient1 --cd /etc/openvpn/client1 --config config.ovpn"
    6. See if everything works
    This will just confirm whether this is really the problem.

  14. Is it possible to turn on the SES led(s) when the tunnel is connectet or traffic is running ?

    ReplyDelete
  15. @harry:
    Should be. How you would accomplish it depends on if you're talking about the server or client, TLS or Static-Key, etc. Post to the forum and we should be able to figure something out.

  16. Openvpn is still at rc15 version, though release notes say rc16?

  17. @Joost:
    It really is rc16. A string just didn't get updated. I'll make sure it reports itself correctly in the next release.
