5 GHz Guest network 1 not connecting #154

Open adestounis opened 2 years ago

adestounis commented 2 years ago

Router Model Affected Models: DSL-AC68U

Firmware Version Affected 386.4

Is this bug present in upstream Merlin releases too? Yes

Describe the bug After the latest release 5ghz gn1 stopped assigning ip when access intranet is disabled.

gnuton commented 2 years ago

Which other Merlin firmware is affected by this? Is this affecting also stock firmware?

adestounis commented 2 years ago

I've not tried any other Merlin firmware except yours and i can confirm that the previous one was ok. In order to clarify as much as possible, this issue corresponds to the original AC68U firmware. There was a time when AiMesh v2 has first "introduced", the 2.5GHz band was affected by this problem (not 5 GHz) but in the latest ones, the problem was resolved.

can you test if the new beta has fixed this issue?

adestounis commented 2 years ago

I'll try it and will be back with any feedback

adestounis commented 2 years ago

Dear Antonio, it still does not assign IP when trying to connect. In the case where intranet access is enabled then it performs as it should.

gnuton commented 2 years ago

Not the first time we issues with guest network and fixing those is not a piece of cake... In the past I debugged the issue and I found out this was the problem https://github.com/gnuton/asuswrt-merlin.ng/commit/6700436db5fe34b056637e8c0ecbe1ee57ec2349 I am now building a new image without my fix just to see if this is still needed with the latest Asus pre-builds

gnuton commented 2 years ago

if you like you can test this image which is the stable without the above fix. https://dl.circleci.com/private/output/job/f8c781db-207c-465e-91f2-c4c30b618d0b/artifacts/0/workspace/release/DSL-AC68U_386.5_2_DSL_1.0.5.3.trx

Thank you. By removing the fix from the changeList 6700436 the 1st 5ghz guest network works again!!

adestounis commented 2 years ago

Can you please revert the above change also in the future release 386.7?

gnuton commented 2 years ago

@adestounis the latest beta1 comes with this fix.

adestounis commented 2 years ago
