FS#442 - BTHomeHub5 Type A Broadband LED fails to flash on reboot #475

Closed aparcar closed 7 years ago

ezplanet:

Supply the following if possible:

Configure the the ADSL LED as follows:

config led 'led_internet' option name 'internet' option sysfs 'bthomehubv5a:blue:broadband' option trigger 'netdev' option mode 'link tx rx' option dev 'pppoa-wan' option default '0'

the "b" Broadband LED should light in blue and blink on tx and rx however on first boot, once the DSL link is established it becomes solid blue, but it does not blink on rx tx.

If the line is shutdown and restarted with:

/etc/init.d/dsl_control stop /etc/init.d/dsl_control start

once the link is established the LED becomes solid blue and it DOES blink on rx and tx

up to trunk r3157 it was working as expected. my next git pull and build is trunk r3186. It is from this version that I started noticing the above defect.

arjendekorte:

I see a similar effect on a Netgear WNDR4300. After bootup, the WAN LED occasionally blinks a few times, or either lights or stays dark. Running

/etc/init.d/led reload

will make it work again however, so it looks like some kind of race condition upon startup. I have noticed this only recently (it may have been present before, I hardly ever look at the LEDs).

I noticed too that the led blinks as per configuration up to about 120 seconds after boot. After that something happens that freezes the led.

reloading as arjendekorte suggested restores functionality.

For me this is fixed by commit https://git.lede-project.org/74ea99b01d936d7b71ee8d0cd0f7c89617b90314

I have seen the patch coming through with git update to r3198.

Built and flashed r3198 and it a appears to be OK now.
