00:23 <slh> \x: Xiaomi be6500 is probably quite similar (~160 EUR inkcl 19% VAT delivered from aliexpress), if the seller specs are to be believed

00:50 <\x> slh: acwifi has a teardown of be6500, sadly no expandability

00:51 <\x> but ofcourse the question here is, "does usb matter?" for me it does, im one of those "no usb no buy"

00:52 <\x> btw heres acwifi teardown of be6500 https://www.acwifi.net/27123.html

00:52 <\x> castiel652: thats good, ehemm any /proc/cpuinfo dump? they likely are using recycled kryo mobile cores again

01:07 <mrkiko> however, ipq4xx drivers in FB7530 do exhibit broken behaviours sometimes, atleast that is on the unit I am using with my setup

01:07 <mrkiko> *ethernet-related drivers*

01:07 <mrkiko> interposing a switch between the device and the rest of the network fixed issue for me

01:30 <slh> \x: thanks, USB is something I'd really like to have - but sadly not a hard requirement (as that would disqualify half of the devices on the market)

01:33 <slh> SOC, RAM size, number of ethernet ports and their specs, as well as 6 GHz capability (yeah, that's not to be found in device for the Chinese market) take precedence over USB. it's great to have it though - and I do miss it, rarely, but when I do, I really miss it

02:02 <mrkiko> slh: out of curiosity - what was your use-case for usb on the router?

02:08 <slh> mrkiko: two things, printer(s) and some small storage space, be it for logs (rrd/ luci statistics) and a bit more custom, a small tftpd-hpa instance to serve the firmware- and configuration to my SIP phone(s) (Cisco cp-7962g, cp7960g)

02:10 <slh> small stuff: 15.8M /srv/tftp/, 1.7M /srv/rrd/, 756.0K /srv/nlbwmon/

02:40 <mrkiko> slh: got it

03:34 <\x> damn mrkiko did not ask me

03:36 <\x> mine is uhh yes nlbwmon + https://i.imgur.com/WMgFGzQ.png

03:37 <\x> i haz one of those smol usb ssds https://i.imgur.com/Gav1eN4.jpeg, evtran 256GB TLC on this one

03:38 <\x> would be nice though if nlbwmon supported remote logging amirite

04:06 <slh> I've never seen the point of mounting remote filesystems on routers, the router should always work - without depending on the rest of the network

04:25 <mrkiko> slh: well, it enables fun stuff I think

04:25 <mrkiko> slh: there shouldn't always be a point in any case

04:25 <mrkiko> \x: I can't see images easily but nice to know

05:13 <KGB-2> https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/openwrt/openwrt_kirkwood.html has been updated. (100.0% images and 100.0% packages reproducible in our current test framework.)

06:54 <svanheule> mirko: I've looked at the fan monitor line in the past, but never managed to figure out how it worked

06:55 <svanheule> mirko: it could also be that they're passing it through a low-pass filter as a "stall alarm" more than a direct RPM measurement

09:13 <aparcar> svanheule aren’t you the switch guru?
