Gluon 2025.1.2

Important notes

The OpenWrt Base of Gluon has been updated to the latest version of openwrt-24.10 introducing various security related bugfixes.

Added hardware support

ipq806x-generic

  • Extreme Networks

    • WS-AP3935i

Bugfixes

  • Fix wireless htmode selection on devices with channel widths smaller than the site configuration (#3797)

  • Fix wireless bandwidth selection logic sometimes prioritizing lower rates (#3797)

  • Adapt sysctl parameters for 64M RAM devices to improve performance and stability (#3802)

Known issues

  • The integration of the BATMAN_V routing algorithm is incomplete.

    • Mesh neighbors don’t appear on the status page (#1726)

      Many tools have the BATMAN_IV metric hardcoded, these need to be updated to account for the new throughput metric.

    • Throughput values are not correctly acquired for different interface types (#1728)

      This affects virtual interface types like bridges and VXLAN.

  • Default TX power on many Ubiquiti devices is too high, correct offsets are unknown (#94)

    Reducing the TX power in the Advanced Settings is recommended.

  • In configurations without VXLAN, the MAC address of the WAN interface is modified even when Mesh-on-WAN is disabled (#496)

    This may lead to issues in environments where a fixed MAC address is expected (like VMware when promiscuous mode is disallowed).
