wifi issues after 14 days

Post by erez669 »

if my router TP-LINK 1043 v1.9 works more than one week, the wifi drops out, i have 1.5.4 gargoyle version on it, my workaround is schedule reboot once a week from the web interface, but it must have a solution from firmware upgrade.
i want to know if the latest firmware edition solve this wifi disconnects issue?

ok, but why you are warning the users that "use at your own risk"? what's can happen if i use it? it's a beta build or something?

Every modification like this (a new firmware) can cause problems with your hardware.
That true even for official firmwares some times and with big companies (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013- ... e-consoles).

It's just a disclaimer: the builder/mantainer does not take any responsability from you installing/using his work.
That's it.

But its pretty safe (official Gargoyle and ipsy builds).
I'm currently using ispy lastest build (15 march), no problems so far.
Same router, TL-WR1043ND 1.9

ispy build (from march 15) its based on r39928, which has (potential) fixes for https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/9654 and https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/14767 among other that affects TL-WR1043ND

Current official Gargoyle 1.6.0 its based on r38347, no it has no fixes for our problems just yet.

Can report that with the latest ispy build my wifi problems are resolved on a TP Link 1043nd v1.1. Three days and no issues.

Yeah, that's the one.

I'm now at 4 days and the problem has yet to rear its ugly head.
