Is your wifi totally down, or in the webgui you see the wifi connection with a connection speed of only 1Mb ?ocaz78 wrote:I have a TP-LINK WR1043ND V1 router and the wifi is not useable, it cuts all the time.

speed is not great but that's not the problem, the wifi really goes down and on console you see this :sheriffy wrote:Is your wifi totally down, or in the webgui you see the wifi connection with a connection speed of only 1Mb ?ocaz78 wrote:I have a TP-LINK WR1043ND V1 router and the wifi is not useable, it cuts all the time.

OK that is a different problem with wifi i have with my wndr3700v2.
My wifi stays up but the RX speed drops to 1Mb, but keeps functioning at that low speed.
I thought it was related to the amount of data wich is transferred, but that is not the case. The problem is only with my foscam camera on wifi. If i connect the camera with wire to my wifi repeater wich can be configured as wireless client i have no problem at all.
So data transfer is not the issue, there seems to be something uncompatilble between te gargoyle / dd-wrt and some wifi devices.
It is not the wifi device in the camera because the same router with stock firmware on it functions problem free.

Re: wifi not usable on TP-LINK WR1043ND / 1.5.11
the only ugly solution i have found for now is to have a software watchdog restart the wifi every time there is a kernel error. i just can't believe that the problem is arround for at least 3 years and no one fixes it...
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/logread -f | while read line; do
echo $line | grep -q 'ath: phy0:' && (echo "$line RESTARTING WIFI">> /var/log/wifi.log; /sbin/wifi)
done

Follow the goo.gl link in my signature. That version has very stable wifi on my 1043ND's.
