[GCC 7.2 BUILD] Optimized TP-Link Archer C7 V2 AC1750 LEDE Firmware

ok what do i compare it to? do i go to my patches file and run diff -q 812-enable-bbr-congestion-control.patch to ???i have no idea how to do that. i mean i look at yours and look at mine obviously and theyre different.

@cliobrando @sycohexor : Hi guys! Maybe you could open a new thread to continue your discussions and keep this one to talk about the build provided by @r00t ?

I think it could be appreciate :wink:

Maybe a moderator (@tmomas) could directly also split this thread ?

i thought that would happen...but i am talking about @r00t patches so i dont see how talking about this is any different.

We you put 'iw reg get' what you get?

It's strange because in my case, I get global country in Europe/Spain (as it must be in my case), but the phy0/1 set in USA, but in the config interfaces are correctly set to country Spain (but showing USA in 'iw reg get' ).

Thanks,

I'm using USA

Maybe someone outside USA can show us what it gets.

Did you check that both radios were configured with the same region (2.4 and 5)?

Yes, both are in the same region (ES).

I changed bot radios to ES and same results as you:

Well, good news for me, it's not only "affecting" my device :grinning::grinning: (Joke mode ON)

Maybe other LEDE users can show us their result.

so what about this, you think this is what i need to do with the patches?
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/patches#refreshing_patches

I'm sorry, but I'm confused about where and what do FW vs download, if possible can you give me a quick orientation? I intend to return my DD-WRT C7 to the LED and to work it with a WRT1900

I appreciate the help

what i believe you should do is revert back to stock firmware

then i would follow the guide on lede for how to flash openwrt/lede to your device.
https://openwrt.org/playground/qsg_lede_installation_guide

hope that helps, again make sure you know which version you have of archer c7

also check this topic

@sycohexor Thanks for reply,

and I'm sorry, I did not make myself well understood, my WRT1900 is already running the LEDE, I need to install it back in my Archer C7, this with the DD-WRT but I went back to the STOCK Fw ja, now I'm in doubt which vs LEDE install, since there is a root and a new one, then I wanted to see which one is more current and stable.

my idea to put the WRT1900 and Archer C7 together in my home network.

no that was my mistake, i didnt read that properly, but im not to sure about which build is better tbh...you could always just try one for a week and then try another for week and see what happens. i edited the above post, sorry bout that.

@cliobrando, have you experienced any problems with 5 ghz and client association with your build? could the krack patch be causing this? i dont think i had it on before when i was using @r00t nightlys.

nope, no problem here.

so i was having problems with out of range with anything over channel 50 in 5 ghz ,my google home and anything amazon and roku devices, once i changed it, that resolved the issue. i dont know if its just those particular devices or what my issue is. my apple devices worked fine on any channel. but pretty good build so far, i dont use the recursive dns cuz i forward it to pihole and pihole now has quad 9 with dnssec. it has a dhcp server as well. along with ipv6 support. what do you set your breed to? i have it at 25 so 1000 mhz, oh and this isnt just related to your build, ive tried it on @r00ts too, same issue.
