Hello,
On Linksys-routers the high-bandwidth-issue is fixed. Thanks for that. I'm just interested if anyone can confirm that White Russian fixed the "crash-on-high-bandwidth"-issue also on Asus WL-500g (deluxe) routers. So, is it fixed?
Topic: Are there still crashes on Asus-routers with WR RC1?

A test on a pair of asus wl-500g with an openwrt.cvs.head of Jun 15 07:42 EET which includes gcc-3.4.4 with a patched 2.4.31 linux kernel + Wireless Extentions v18 did not have this problem. Tested back-to-back with 1GB file transfer using senao/prism2 wifi miniPCI cards. I didn't test with the native broadcom wifi cards - I got my senao miniPCI for $35 a piece.
I fixed the last remaining pieces of the kernel instability problems in whiterussian CVS yesterday.
A CVS build containing the fixes is available here: http://downloads.openwrt.org/people/nbd/whiterussian/
By the way: This only affected WL-500g and other v1 hardware, not the Deluxe version.
Just out of curiosity: What had to be changed to make it stable?
The CPU cache is buggy on BCM4710A0 (v1 hardware). I had to port over workarounds from the older kernel, which was not easy since the cache code itself has changed somewhat, over time.
The discussion might have continued from here.
