Reboot hanging TL-WDR3600 (HW V1.5)

Post by alien8 »

With the TL-WDR3600 (HW V1.5) and Gargoyle Version 1.6.2 the router hangs sometimes after a reboot command and a power cycle is required to get it back to life.

It is a known problem with openwrt AA https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/17839

Pach in comment:58 seems to work.

Any chance of adapting gargoyle with that patch ?

Thx.

I hope for the patch too eventhough I don't have this issue since my TP-Link TL-WDR3600 v1.5 using older RAM chip by referring this:

Devices having reboot issues is equipped with Zentel A3R12E40CBF ram chip. Devices without reboot issues has SKhynix H5PS5162GFR ram chip.
Devices without reboot issues has Winbond W9751G6KB-25 ram chip.

It seems SKhynix and Winbond were for older production lots (serial # starting with 13B, 13C, 2141)
Zentel was used for serial # starting with 2143 and 2145

Mine starting with S/N # 2141. Not sure which RAM chip type 'coz I don't open the box yet.

Now using beta firmware from Barrier Breaker Progress post compiled by ispyisail and reboot seems to work well.
