LACP no longer working on RN516 running 6.7.5
LACP bonding no longer seems to work with my RN516 on 6.7.5, the switch shows only one interface up, as if the teaming is Active Backup, not LACP. The MTU keeps resetting to 1500 from 9000, as if th...

Hello Tonkinite,
There is no specific information on the release notes of firmware version 6.8.0 about the teaming/bonding on the NAS. The 6.8.0 firmware version had been already officially release you may want to try it and check if it will make any difference.

Changed the teaming mode to Round Robin, which seemed to allow the Jumbo frame MTU to stick, even after switching back to LACP, but the switch still only shows one line active (but the opposite one now).
Tried to manually install 6.8.0, it failed with "Unrecognized server error", even though it's a local install.

That one's new to me (and I haven't seen that error with my NAS). What browser were you using? At what point in the process did it fail?

It's not new to me anymore :smileyfrustrated: I just saw it when installing the firmware on my RN526. Though I didn't see it on the RN524 I upgraded yesterday.
fwbroker didn't generate that error though, so I used that.

Was using Safari. Switched to Chrome, FrontView (do we still call it that?) said the image was downloaded and asked permission to restart.
Network issue still there, Bonding appears even more finicky than in 6.7.5 (seems to take two tries to change the teaming mode).
Problem still there, sadly.
