Could you please tell whether that patch is also useable for Attitude Adjustment, or only for trunk / Barrier Breaker?

After applying the patch should I see WNDR3000v4 on 'Target profile'?
I have applied it, activated 'Advance configuration options for developers' and selected 'Show broken platforms / packages', selected 'Target system Atheros AR7xxx/AR9xxx' and 'Subtarget (Generic devices with NAND flash)', but the only option I have on 'Target Profile' is NETGEAR WNDR4300
@IcyK: The provided patch is only for the trunk. Other branches are not tested.
@scc: Perhaps you have to clean the "tmp" folder and re-run "make clean; make menuconfig". Hereafter the device should be visible.

Hi Ralph, thanks for your work!
I put your patch file into target/linux/ar71xx/patches-3.10/, but I only get WNDR4300, no sign of 3700 v4, and while I try to make kernel_menuconfig, it reports a lots of errors, like this:

Did I put it into wrong place? Or is there anything else I should do?
Hello Folks!
May I ask for an OpenWRT Image for a WNDR4300? I'm not very comfortable with this development / compiling stuff.
I only need basic functionality.
Thank you!

Sorry, but this is the wrong path. Put the patch in "/openwrt/patches" and apply it with quilt.

Hi friend.
I met the same problem.
I found that: openwrt/target/linux/ar71xx/nand/target.mk is marked broken currently.
I have to remove broken.
I applied rpsoft's patch against rev 39649 and loaded it via the netgear web interface on my wndr3700v4. Things generally seem okay with the exception that the wireless support isn't working. Here's an excerpt from dmesg. Any idea why it's having trouble loading the eeprom files?

In order to get wireless working in rpsoft's patch from post 101 you need to make a couple small edits to target/linux/ar71xx/base-files/etc/hotplug.d/firmware/10-ath9k-eeprom...
The two instances of
case $board in
wndr4300)
need to change to
case $board in
wndr4300 | wndr3700-v4)
This git patch applies to rev 39770. What needs to happen for these changes to start making it upstream?
I've managed to solve my network dropping problems by applying the patch from here:
https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php … 86&p=2
Hi, rpsoft, I am a new one on openwrt, would you please show me some details for how to apply your patch? thanks a lot.
Using the patches found in this thread I was able to build a working image.
Configuration is lost every time I reboot the device. Isn't supposed to be that way, is it?
[strike]wlan1 just doesn't seem to come up. Did I miss something?[/strike]
Wireless settings are a bit flaky. Can't reproduce it right now, but for some reason both adapters started working after "some time" (playing around with the settings, etc). I guess it might have something to do with channel auto mode which definitely doesn't work.
I know my way around Linux pretty well, so I can provide details and testing.

Is there any OpenWRT-Firmware at this point, which I easily can upgrade my WNDR4300 with via the original Netgear-Webinterface, and in result having a fully supported router and OpenWRT? Any hints/guides appreciated.
I´m new to OpenWRT and just a "normal" user.

Sort of. The factory images built by the current code-base (with patches from this thread applied) can in fact be uploaded via the web-interface of stock firmwares.

If you're comfortable with a Linux CLI then I'd say yes, they're fully functional, from a hardware point of view. I somehow managed to build an image that doesn't want to persist settings - apart from the credentials everything is factory-reset after a reboot. Also, LuCI kills WLAN if you happen to select the wrong setting, because hostapd understandably refuses to initialize interfaces with garbage configuration.

Then I'd strongly recommend against flashing OpenWRT onto your WNDRv4 at all, unless you are prepared to go back to stock firmware via TFTP. And deal with some quirks on the way there.
As a daily Linux user (and part-time sysadmin) I know my way around and how to configure and debug services on the command line, but that's really nothing I'd recommend for a "normal user".
I built a sorta working image as well, it seems to work fine, but as you, alex, I have the same issue with persisting configuration.
I looked into it a bit and found that if you create a new file, it persists but if you update an existing file (it should then be written to jffs2) it SEEMS to to be written but upon reset it's lost.
#touch /etc/stefan
#ls -l /etc/stefan /overlay/etc/stefan
<file exists>
#passwd
<set new root password>
#grep root /rom/etc/passwd /etc/passwd /overlay/etc/passwd
<shows the one in rom is unchanged (which is correct) and the one in /etc and /overlay/etc are both updated, or so it seems!>
<reboot>
#grep root /rom/etc/passwd /etc/passwd /overlay/etc/passwd
<all files are the same as in /rom>
So the question is why overlay isn't being updated - and does that mean the in-memory caches are the only ones keeping state at this point? IF we start running out of free memory, does it THEN flush blocks? Does it lose them?
Another question that hopefully someone can answer :
Why is the 96MB area unused? Some technical reason?
Or could I just use it for my own?
I'm compiling up r40016 (I think it is) currently, I'll do some testing with that and if all else fails I'll use extroot on it instead for now.
It's a 3700v4 btw.

Hello everyone. I built the firmware for WNDR4300 from git master branch and the flashed the firmware successfully to the WNDR4300 router. But I got a strange problem:
1) the router has the jffs2 filesystem mount to /overlay, if I create a new file on /overlay it is persist even after a reboot.
2) but any changes to the files exist as default setting files after flash, such as /etc/config/system, /etc/config/network, the changes will disappear after reboot, those files will return to default. As I understand /etc/config/system is actually /overlay/etc/config/system, so I don't understand why the change is not persisted.
Here is the mtd and mount info, any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

I also am getting the same problem with (EDIT) a WNDR4300.
At first I thought it was just an image size thing so cut it down to 7.2MB total. However that does not seem to have resolved the problem.

Using Barrier Breaker trunk r40015
Is there a setting or package I am missing? The nand driver packages (2 of them) are installed.
Here's the dmesg output as well to see if we can't narrow this down. It's so close to working perfectly! Everything compiles fine and the router does work with OpenWRT very well, but ALL settings are lost, except interestingly for the root password that's set in LuCI at the very start of things.

I applied rpsoft's patch against rev 39649 and loaded it via the netgear web interface on my wndr3700v4. Things generally seem okay with the exception that the wireless support isn't working.
One thing I did notice on the WNDR4300 is that if I factory flash a fresh OpenWRT image on the device after already having OpenWRT on there, the 5GHz wifi does not come up.
To get it back again in OpenWRT, you first need to flash the stock Netgear firmware via TFTP, then via the Netgear firmware web UI flash your factory image of OpenWRT. Otherwise it does not detect the 5GHz radio for some reason.
DEVS: I am happy to flash any test images for you, the router is useless to me with the stock firmware and DD-WRT doesn't support IPv6 native dual stack so it is probably a situation of OpenWRT or nothing at all.
Also with regards to the persistent settings after reboot, as I said in my last post these are lost after a reboot for my builds as well however just a few weeks ago someone was smart enough to get an image where the settings DO remain after a reboot. I am going to post in there and ask what they did to get the settings to stick.

Actually it's far easier than that... I came across this earlier when testing. The trick is after you flash your OpenWRT image, you must POWER OFF the router. Not reboot, but physically power off. I'm not 100% sure of the technical reason, but there is some conflict between having PCI enabled and the bootloader writing to the NAND, so when you flash the bootstap code makes sure PCI is disabled on initial boot. As I said a reboot does not fix it, you must remove power and then re-apply. Took me a while to figure that out so hopefully saves everyone from the same headaches.
(I believe this is a hardware issue, as I experienced this originally even flashing custom builds of the Netgear GPL... where once you did the TFTP upload, the serial console would show the device got stuck in a booting loop. Once you removed power and re-applied, it always came up just fine)
As for the config not persisting, that's pretty strange. I've got my own builds working with 0 issues. From your logs it looks like the rootfs is mounted properly using overlayfs. The only thing I can suggest is to try:
1) Boot up normally
2) Create a new file somewhere
3) Edit an existing file and save it
4) Reboot and go into safe mode
5) Manually mount the overlay/jffs partition and see if your files were actually written there.
It sounds like maybe there's a bug or issue with the overlayfs recently, since I built from rev.38896 with 0 issues...
Thanks for that, you were spot on with the 5G wifi issue, if I power off the router totally it comes back up. Saves me a stack of extra mucking around!
I've just compiled a fresh image from trunk (r40022) so will have a tinker with this and see if the settings persist after a reboot.

And I think I MIGHT have found part of the problem.
I went into /etc/config and used vi to modify the dhcp file. I then saved this file, plus created a new file called dhcp.bak.
I then rebooted, the dhcp.bak file remained there no problem. The original dhcp file got reset back to defaults.
So it seems to keep the file if you create it from scratch. Not quite. I then deleted the dhcp file and then created it brand new by copying the previously made .bak file. I then rebooted, it was again back to defaults. I repeated this process as well in /overlay/etc/config too (my dhcp.bak file was already there from earlier)
What put me onto trying that method was the fact that the shadow file is renamed/moved to shadow- when you set the root password, and a new shadow file is created. This file seems to persist when the router is rebooted. However other config files like dhcp, wireless, system which live in /etc/config are NOT retained.

Quick update
Compiled against r39000 of the trunk and all settings are retained after a reboot.
So it seems that something has gone awry between 39000 and current trunk versions.
Will compile against say, r39500 of the trunk when I get a spare minute and see if the issue arises or not.
I confirmed that r39130 is OK. I happened to have another WNDR4300 running on this revision and all settings are retained.
And as for your earlier post, I'm having exactly the same symptoms as you are. Newly created files will persist and files that are originally there like /etc/config/system will not persist and are reset to default after reboot. Quite strange. Since new files are retained, the filesystem on nand (ubifs I guess?) is actually working fine. I think either overlayfs is buggy or there is other process resetting the files to default on purpose. I confirmed that even say /etc/config/system got reset, its content is different than /rom/etc/config/system. This means the resetting of the files is not simply just copy the same file from the squashfs but on purposely processed and rewritten to the nand ubifs.
Hope somebody cound fix this. It's really a showstopper.

I am compiling r39750 trunk now, as r39500 worked perfectly -- reboot till the cows come home but settings would stick.
The rest of the image works perfectly on a WNDR4300 so glad I tried rolling back 1000 revisions of the trunk source.
Just a pity I had several other commitments today, otherwise I would probably already be reporting on r39750 
Have compiled 39750 & 39800, in both cases the router settings stuck after rebooting.
Now trying 39900, after that I will call it a night, but that should give the devs plenty to work with and narrow down substantially which revision broke it
