I've got a request: could you add one little package to your build: kmod-ledtrig-heartbeat?

Can you add FPU emulation on it ?

No, i'm sorry...
Why would you need softfloat?

Can somebody test the wifitoggle on the TP-Link TL-WDR3500/WDR3600/WDR4300/WDR4310, by pressing the reset/wps button?
I don't know if this button is mapped as reset or wps (or both?)...

At the moment I'm only compiling for the routers I own. This way I can ensure that the firmware I build works for that particular router.
Maybe I'll start compiling for more routers in the future, if there is more demand for it...

No, but you can install the package by yourself via the opkg package manager wink

I would express my appreciation for this project, I am using an arokh's build, I am excited to start with yours.
Thank you for your time.

The Downloadlist seems a bit bugged to me, it downloads other Files than selected. I tried Firefox, Chrome and IE. Is it just me or a Problem with the Links/List?

Edit:
I installed it on my TL-WR1043ND v1.8 and it runs great so far! smile

Hi,
first of all thank you for your builds - i installed it and it worked spot on!

Iam not sure if there is a problem with my setup or not. I installed your build on my wdr3500 and if i check my system log, there are many entries like:

Sat Dec 21 15:55:03 2013 daemon.warn 6relayd[1684]: Failed to relay to 2a02:810d:8000:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx%br-lan (Operation not permitted)
Sat Dec 21 15:55:03 2013 daemon.warn 6relayd[1684]: Failed to relay to 2a02:810d:8000:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx%br-lan (Operation not permitted)
Sat Dec 21 15:55:03 2013 user.notice firewall: Reloading firewall due to ifup of wan6 ()

Is there a way to fix this? i did not change any settings so far.

I have the same entrys, but i'm not sure if this is a Buildproblem or a Issue from our Provider. Kabel Deutschland use IPv6 only on thier own Cable-Routers, like Hitron, Compal or the FritzBox 6360 Cable, there is actually no IPv6 if you have a Modem like the Cisco EPC3212.

This should be fixed in r39155 now!

-EDIT-
Flashing the latest version removed most of the spam for me. I still get some entries like

but they are far less frequent than the previous ones.

On my WR1043ND 1.8 with r39155, miniupnpd floods the system log with messages like this one:

SSDP packet sender [fe80::2cxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx]:57403 not from a LAN, ignoring

Reverting back to r39132...

Sorry for asking so much but iam just getting started and have a quite limited unix understanding (i'll probably never be a terminal-ninja). I tried mounting a FAT formatted USB drive and share it on the network.
LUCI does not show any errors but dmesg tells me that something went wrong with the mounting. A quick search told me that i need a special package to mount my drive and here is where it fails:

is there a reason why such essential packages to mount usb drives are missing or am i doing something wrong here?

The assumtion that you missed the package in your build is wrong - sorry for that. I just checked all installed packages and it is there. But now iam out of ideas why it is not picked up in the mounting process...

You might be right that the package is missing...

Try this:

opkg install kmod-nls-cp437 --force-depends

-EDIT-

I added kmod-nls-cp437 and kmod-nls-iso8859-1, should be working now

Do you get a IPv6 on your WAN-Side?
