Installed 4.6.14.3 last Saturday and it's been pretty lackluster since. I did a "Very Dirty Install" just to see and I turned on all the unnecessary toys that one would want. So far nothing out of the ordinary; IPv6 has been up and running the whole time; while adding many WiFi Switches and Dimmers, re-initializing streaming devices I have noticed that clients that could utilize IPv6 addresses, are. When using a third party networking analyzer app I am seeing the IPv6 addresses are presented first and foremost. I did notice that on-boarding all the WiFi Clients was fast and easier than normal.
One thing that was wonky were the logs. Not eMailing as they should. Clearing daily though. Todays' log was just short of 106,000 characters. Mostly:
[email failed] * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE NAMESPACE LITERAL+ Friday, Dec 09,2022 18:23:08
Mixed with clients, mostly those on the Guest Network, which I am using as an IoT network, on and off-boarding every fifteen minutes or so.
Other than that, things are good . . . so far.
Mines be up for 5+ days solid:
2x RBS wireless connected. Power set to 50%. .100 to .150 DHCP IP address pool size. CAX80 in modem only mode using the 2.5Gb WAN port to RBR.
Email and all Logging disabled. Wonder if a factory reset maybe needed to check the email logging not working for you? FarmerBob1
FURRYe38 I was checking out your statistics and comparing to mine. My 2.4ghz status is 573.5, half of your 1147. Any idea why that would be? I thought it might be since I have my 2.4 band set to 50%, but was under the impression that only affects signal strength, not the bandwidth.
My 2.4 Ghz status is also 573.5. My 2.4 Ghz transmitting power is set to 25%.
LAN ports have a constant uptime since the update (4 days now). No resets to zero.I found it....I unchecked off the 20/40 MHZ co-existence and it went to 1147. I guess I will see if all of my older devices work now.
