Tun stability issue #223

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. latest firmware with openvpn (2.1.x)
2. active vpn connection
3. ftp in active mode to other device through tun (not PASV!)
4. router resets

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
- directory listing of other device
- instead of that router resets a few moments after connection, but before 
directory listing was readed

What version of the product are you using?
2899

Please provide any additional information below.
- previously a have used fw 2408 where these things worked correctly
- with the latest fw my router is also less stable, accidentaly restarts once a 
day or two, it might be related to some tunnel communication
- I have usb WD disk connected
- when I flash fw 2408 back then these problems dissapear

First of all, you didn't tell us which router you use and which firmware ("d" 
or "rtn" branch).

Latest "rtn" firmware has Broadcom "Fast-NAT" feature enabled by default. While 
it has some speed improvements for ordinary customers, it incompatible with 
complex QoS & VPN schemes. So, you have to disable it:

nvram set misc_fastnat_x=0
nvram commit

I'm sorry, I use rt-n16 and rtn fw. It seems that disabling of Fast-NAT has 
solved my issues. Thanks!

Only one more question - you wrote fast-NAT is enabled by default, it means 
after any new fw flash my router came back to active fast-NAT and I should 
apply these instructions again, right?

nvram variables not changed on newer FW flash, on reset to defaults only.

test r4320 with fastnat *enabled*

nvram unset misc_fastnat_x

should be no problem.
