v3.3.6 — the WAN port stays out of the LAN, WAN Ports replaces the Dual WAN tab, a quieter Traffic Analyzer, real Site Survey security names

• Auto WAN port detection no longer bridges the internet port into the LAN at every boot and link
  drop (owner). Stock detection finds the port by adding every candidate to br0 and running a DHCP
  client on the bridge; the closed restore_auto_wanport() redid that at each boot and each WAN link
  loss, so the ISP port carried LAN traffic for ~35-45 s every time (only DHCP and RS/RA were
  filtered). Now the first port that carries the WAN is pinned (reaper_wanport): the restore calls
  are skipped, wanduck stops relaunching the search, and _eval refuses a brctl addif of that port
  while Auto is on and Dual WAN is off. A fixed port clears the pin; Detect again (or
  service start_reaper_wanredetect) runs one search. Dual WAN, AP mode, IPTV, bonding, static WAN and
  MAC clone are untouched (stock is_auto_wanport_enabled() gate); a new or reset router still
  starts on Auto. Host test test_wan_pin.py.
• WAN > WAN Ports replaces the Dual WAN tab. The only place to pick the WAN port was the Dual WAN
  tab, and nothing said Auto searches several ports even with Dual WAN off. The native page shows the
  ports (Auto with its explainer and the pinned port), Dual WAN, monitoring, Load Balance rules and the
  ISP profile; the stock page redirects to it and is unchanged. Its apply is a port of the stock
  applyRule(): a mock parity harness drives both pages through 28 scenarios (incl. three refusals)
  and finds the same nvram changes. One deliberate difference: a legacy single-WAN lan on the combo
  port shows that port instead of silently selecting Auto. RWAN_1..22 in all 25 packs.
• Traffic Analyzer stays quiet on a busy conntrack table (field, RT-BE88U: rtrafd at about one core
  with ~10.7k entries from a LAN DHT crawler). The conntrack pass is paced by its own measured cost
  (near 3% of one core, 2 s floor, 30 s ceiling, one log line per change), every rate and staleness
  figure uses the measured interval, and the connection health probe counts inside the same pass
  instead of a second full read. Host test test_rtrafd_pacing.py.
• Site Survey shows real security names (field: WPA2/WPA3 networks read "WEP"). This platform's
  wl prints the privacy bit as WEP on every protected network and the RSN header as
  RSN (WPA2):; the parser matched only RSN:. Both forms are read now and the AKM suites fold into
  one name: WPA2-Personal, WPA2/WPA3-Personal, WPA3-Personal, WPA/WPA2-Personal, WPA2-Enterprise, OWE.
  An empty band (6 GHz with no network in range) reads as empty, not as a refused scan, and the list's
  heading row stays in view while it scrolls.
• Audit 2026-10-06 fixes. The stock download row for the WireGuard client configuration image
  (wgs_client.png) needs a login (it carried a client's private key); rdnsmapd accepts DNS replies
  from LAN bridges only, so nothing on the WAN side can plant Flow Explorer names; strongSwan carries
  the 6.0.6 security set. See REAPER-FIXES.md.
• Flow Explorer: the Advanced detail panel glides to the reader with one measurement per frame
  instead of jumping on every scroll event.

Images & checksums (GT-BE98)

Two flashable images: + AI Advisor (default) and Standard (noMCP, all AI components compiled out entirely). Flash the *_nand_squashfs.pkgtb via Administration > Firmware Upgrade.

This is a beta release. Its filename carries _BETA and the router reports the same string on the dashboard and the About page, so you can always tell which channel a flashed image came from. Stable releases carry no marker.
