Avoid 88W8964 firmware 9.3.2.12 for Wi-Fi instabilities it causes on Linksys WRT3200ACM & WRT32X until fixes on master branch are backported to openwrt-21.02.
A lot of users, me included, with Linksys WRT32X & WRT3200ACM devices experience often Wi-Fi cutouts on OpenWrt 21.02.0-rc3. Here are people who had issues with 9.3.2.12 on WRT3200ACM. They no longer have the issue after installing OpenWrt 19.07 or downgrading to the 9.3.2.6 firmware. https://forum.openwrt.org/t/pre-compiled-updated-mwlwifi-drivers-for-stable-releases/3262/682 https://forum.openwrt.org/t/pre-compiled-updated-mwlwifi-drivers-for-stable-releases/3262/688 https://forum.openwrt.org/t/connectivity-issues-with-wifi/79003 https://forum.openwrt.org/t/users-needed-to-test-wi-fi-stability-on-linksys-wrt3200acm-wrt32x-on-openwrt-21-02-0-rc3/101700/2 https://forum.openwrt.org/t/users-needed-to-test-wi-fi-stability-on-linksys-wrt3200acm-wrt32x-on-openwrt-21-02-0-rc3/101700/14 https://forum.openwrt.org/t/users-needed-to-test-wi-fi-stability-on-linksys-wrt3200acm-wrt32x-on-openwrt-21-02-0-rc3/101700/16 I can confirm downgrading to 9.3.2.6 fixed the Wi-Fi cut-outs on my WRT32X. https://forum.openwrt.org/t/users-needed-to-test-wi-fi-stability-on-linksys-wrt3200acm-wrt32x-on-openwrt-21-02-0-rc3/101700 Signed-off-by: Arınç ÜNAL <[email protected]> --- package/kernel/mwlwifi/Makefile | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/package/kernel/mwlwifi/Makefile b/package/kernel/mwlwifi/Makefile index eb986dca03..0d0ac701d9 100644 --- a/package/kernel/mwlwifi/Makefile +++ b/package/kernel/mwlwifi/Makefile @@ -15,9 +15,9 @@ PKG_LICENSE_FILES:= PKG_SOURCE_URL:=https://github.com/kaloz/mwlwifi PKG_SOURCE_PROTO:=git -PKG_SOURCE_DATE:=2020-02-06 -PKG_SOURCE_VERSION:=a2fd00bb74c35820dfe233d762690c0433a87ef5 -PKG_MIRROR_HASH:=0eda0e774a87e58e611d6436350e1cf2be3de50fddde334909a07a15b0c9862b +PKG_SOURCE_DATE:=2019-08-18 +PKG_SOURCE_VERSION:=747796b2f126df01c3c5442c607b4ea0497b1c6c +PKG_MIRROR_HASH:=11985b8132edd1db1001748b0fc6d915205b7bcaf2a7512a4befb5ef3cc83bb9 PKG_MAINTAINER:=Imre Kaloz <[email protected]> PKG_BUILD_PARALLEL:=1 -- 2.25.1 _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
