The mtu values i provided earlier are the max values each interface supports (Excluding br-lan and wwan0)
I noticed that i forgot to include eth2 (it also uses 2022 which is why i set br-lan to that)
But again i’m using 1500 now on all interfaces since changing the MTU causes the issues i described earlier to happen.
Hi @frank-w newbie question here, I flashed the old OpenWRT image on a SD-Card. Does [wed_task0] and [wed_task1] and mtk_ppe_dev_register_hook mean WED is working ?
Fair enough Frank, I was delightfully surprised these were active already myself. Hopefully they hurry up and update the wirelessreg.db / regulatory.db to reflect the ratified 6Ghz channels because It is still not updated from last year.
Where should it be updated? I do not update older posts when such information changes. My wiki should be up2date for this. But i remember that something took more time to be 4gb ready (afair ppe)
Good catch edited that out. Speaking of , do you have any examples of even better hardware offloading performance ? Those were enabled out of the box maybe I could achive even better with good documentation.
Nice do you know if WED works on other distros ? I didn’t even know I could run other distros on banana pi that work around the Mediatek MT7996 WIFi7 development issues.
Yeah,but sdk changed to an larger driver with debug parts. So not upstreamable and i found no time yet to analyse differences in core. For upstream openwrt and mainline linux we have to first get ethmux (phy port series from maxime as base) complete.
I haven’t checked. You’ll probably be using frank-w’s kernels in that case so feel free to check the commit log for the WED patches.
I use mine as a wired router, which is also what I recommend to others, so I simply haven’t cared enough about WED to check what patches are needed for that feature.
I don’t want to spam the PR comments on GitHub, but could you please share with the community and everyone waiting what stage this PR is currently at? Are there any specific issues or blockers you’ve run into, and is it expected that the WIP/draft label might be removed in the near future?
We really appreciate all the work you’re doing on the mainline branch and are keeping our fingers crossed
Don’t expect that to be merged and hence have mainline openwrt support earlier than June.
There are critical missing parts in the Linux kernel that will take time to be developed and than back ported. So take a seat an stick with the sinovoip or mediatek code/builds
Hello, Back again.
Just put my entire home lab through extensive testing and i’m happy to see the bpi r4 pro maxing out it’s internal inband USXGMII 10 gigabit connection without exploding.
However…
This is only through the maxlinear switch.
If i connect my PC to the 10 gigabit rj45 port then run a simple iperf3 test the bpi completely craps out and only does a few megabits/s if any
That can be “fixed” by setting scatter gather off on eth2, Then the bpi can do up to a gigabit of TX throughput and link speed RX (In my case my pc has a 5 gigabit port so 5 gigabit)
That sadly has the downside of completely nuking any high bandwidth traffic on the maxlinear switch
Any ideas?
I wanna put the blame on the fact my PC has a 5 gigabit port and the 10 gigabit port on the bpi is running at an unsupported/unadvertised speed, Could be wrong though, Lmk
