Re: EA7300 stuck on "Waiting..."

Glad it helped you. This method was discovered by a live chat representative, who logged detailed information about this issue, including:

Router model
OS/ISP of connected modem
faulty firmware version
previous/working firmware version
whether being wired, or wireless made a difference
whether rebooting/power cycling alone made a difference
whether the mobile app could handle firmware updates
Whether device OS made a difference
Whether browser made a difference

in the end, on the last attempt before following the steps I gave above, the UI did flash for literally maybe half a second, before going back to the "Waiting..." screen. My guess is that is what made the tech suggest the above steps.

Sounds like your ISP is a WISP or Satellite. The wireless\sat signal is probably too weak to handle rain.

Hello, victorj,

 

We'd like to check on this. May we know the Linksys device that you have? Also, what is the VPN server you are using?

 

 

Regards,

Just my 2 cents.  Linksys has not done a good job updating the firmware for the ea9400 router.  If you can, return the router and get another brand such as Netgear or Asus.  I doubt Linksys will update the firmware for this router.

Good morning,

 

Thanks for your response, I have a Linksys WRT1900ACS V2 with Firmware version: 2.0.3.201002

 

In all my OpenVPN that I have, I use this client: Here: OpenVPN.org that I understand, will be the most standard, extended and recognized.

 

I've been using OpenWrt for 3 years now and when I saw that 3 updates have passed since I didn't use your original software, I decided to try it again and I saw that you are unable to solve this problem that has been going on for more than three years. (There are more users commenting this problem).

 

According to all the observed, it is solved adding three lines in the configuration file of the client and one in the one of the server (I do not know if having to install openvpn-openssl and openvpn-easy-rsa because I do not know how you have it mounted underneath to have such a weak algorithm).

 

You already know that the router WRT1900ACS with OpenWRT can create for example, a 4096 RSA and the microprocessor can with the generation of the algorithm (2048 is enough). Why use weak algorithms with 64bits?

 

Thank you very much, I await your response.

Curious as to why removing the outbound router connection is the variable rendering the UI unresponsive.

WRT3200ACM Network Map display question 1

I recently removed the hard drive from an old computer that was connected wirelessly to my router and will sending it to electronic recycling center.  The router network map shows that laptop coonected via LAN.  It is not connected to the network but I can't figure out how to get it removed from the network map.  How do I do this since there is no remove option when I click the image on the network map.

Why does my Samsung cellphone show up on the network map as both a LAN device and a 5GHz device?

 

Why does my Linksys range extended show up on th network map as both a LAN device and a 5GHz device since it only connected to network wirelessly?

Why does my standby generator show up on the network map as a LAN device when it connected wirelessly?  There is no hardwired connection from the router to the generator.

Re: EA9300 Router loss of network, slow wifi speeds

I have a similar problem with EA 9300 starting a week ago. My laptop can't connect directly to the 5Ghz, the router doesn't want to give IP address to it. But, if I turn on my LG phone hotspot and share the wifi from my router, the laptop would be able to connect. My laptop is HP envy with ax 200 wifi adapter.

Please help this is annoying!!!

Hello,

 

yes I tried to enter the whole (not collpased) address, but the message was the same.

 

My ISP is planning to deploy IPv6 in the second half of 2021.

 

Thanks everyone for ideas.

Hello,

 

After my changes, some things have been fixed but changes are still needed on the server side:

 

  • Wed Jun 03 09:47:48 2020 WARNING: 'link-mtu' is used inconsistently, local='link-mtu 6057', remote='link-mtu 6041'
    • I have it at 6000 mtu, I don't understand
  • Wed Jun 03 09:47:48 2020 WARNING: 'cipher' is used inconsistently, local='cipher AES-256-CBC', remote='cipher BF-CBC'
    • this makes me downgrade to insecure encryption
  • Wed Jun 03 09:47:48 2020 WARNING: 'keysize' is used inconsistently, local='keysize 256', remote='keysize 128'
    • downgrade again
  • Wed Jun 03 09:47:48 2020 Control Channel: TLSv1, cipher SSLv3 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, 1024 bit RSA
    • 1024 is very unsafe....
    • #openssl dhparam -out dhparam.pem 3072 (f.ex.)

In this forum: https://forums.openvpn.net/viewtopic.php?t=11913#p26702 in 2013 already advised:

 

  • use AES-256-CBC instead of blowfish
  • use SHA512 (auth directive)
  • use larger keys (2048bit) (on 2013!!!)
  • use tls-auth directive

 

And 7 years have passed, today DH is unsafe and it doesn't matter to put 2048 than 4096, but never 1024 and use BlueFish (BF-CBC) https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/SWEET32

 

The following ciphers are affected, and should no longer be used since 2016https://sweet32.info/:

 

Thanks,

WoooooHooooo!

 

Many Thanks Chadster!

 

I was able to get to the Marvell prompt by connecting the TTL cable immediately after turning on the power to the router and spamming the space bar.

 

Another problem I encountered was that PuTTY was attempting to load but was giving...

 

T  T  T  T  T  T  T  (etc.)

...and then timing out.

 

I found that I had to start TFTPd64 AFTER I was at the Marvell prompt.  It might have been obvious to some, but I didn't realize that without power to the router when TFTPd was initialized, no connection was made when TFTPd was started.

 

Some other helpfull hints that worked for me were listed in the comments section of Zach Stabile's guide.

- make sure the Settings in Tftpd are also correct:

* in the GLOBAL tab only the service "TFTP Server" needs to be checked. All other services need to be unchecked

* in the TFTP tab:

-> set "TFTP Security" to "None"

-> check the option "Bind TFTP to this address" and make sure you select the IP address of your ethernet port

- make sure the settings in Putty are correct. If you can't type in anything in the console, you need to change some settings, first. To do that, right click at the top left of the Putty console window, select "Change settings". Then click on "Terminal" and set "Local echo" and "Local line" editing both to "Force on".

- make sure you connected your computer with your router by pluggin in an ethernet cable to your computer and in one of the ports of your router (NOT the "INTERNET" port).

- make sure your TTL Serial to USB Cable is still connected to the router once you give the run command. I had to hold mine to the pins to prevent the cable to detach itself.

 

Thanks again!!!!

 

Smiley Very Happy

Re: EA8500 2.4Ghz dropping connection on latest firmware

As far as I know it has not.  No new firmware has been released since 1.1.9.192968 so why this thread is marked as solved is beyond me because it is not.  My ea8500 still suffers from the dropping of 2.4ghz devices.  The only way to get it back is to switch channels or reset the router.  But eventually issue comes back.  Unfortunately as it's been more than a year and no new firmware I'm replaceing my router.  Too bad becuase if that issue had been resolved it's a great router.

Is there any updates to this and other problems with this router?
1. USB port problems mentioned before
2. Wifi weakness
3. last Firmware upodate was in 2018, and this router is not that old yet, has it been relegated to the "legends" or "outdated" portion yet?
If so, time to replace my EA-8300 AND EA-9500 with another manufacturers device.
