pre-release2 hours ago

v3.6.4 — Guest Network Pro through an OpenVPN client has Internet, Rule Status reads VPN routing, device pickers on VPN Director and DHCP reservations

Everything in v3.6.3 is included. Both lines carry the same changes: RT-BE96U, RT-BE86U, RT-BE88U and GT-BE98 Pro on
3006.102.10; GT-BE98, GT-BE19000, BQ16 and BQ16 Pro on 3006.102.8.

  • Guest Network Pro: a network sent through an OpenVPN client has Internet. Field report (RT-BE86U, v3.6.3): a
    Guest Network Pro network bound to an OpenVPN client from the Network page had no Internet, while a VPN Director
    rule for the same subnet worked. Routing, firewall and NAT were right; the network's DNS was not. Its dnsmasq asks
    the VPN's resolvers from the router itself, and nothing sent those queries into the tunnel (only the WireGuard path
    installs that rule), so they left by the WAN, or down another tunnel whose resolver had the same address. Each
    resolver is now bound to the client's tunnel in the network's servers file (server=10.9.0.1@tun13), and dnsmasq
    keeps the capability that binding needs when it reads a servers file.
  • Rule Status: a guest network sent through a VPN is a note, not a red G2. Same report: the check went red at the
    FORWARD tail for that network although its forwarding was right - its Internet path is the routing table its
    ip rule selects, which the check does not read. The walker (v1.11) now reads each rule's input interface: a bridge
    an unconditional rule sends to a table of its own is reported as policy-routed, with the rule, the table and its Kill
    Switch partner named, and is not judged against the WAN path.
  • VPN Director: picking a device fills the Description with its name. Only while the field is empty or still
    holds the last name filled in, never over typed text; characters the description refuses are dropped.
  • LAN > DHCP: a device list when adding a reservation. The MAC field offers this LAN's connected devices that
    hold no reservation yet, name and address, sorted by address; picking one fills the address and shows the device's
    name as the host-name placeholder. The stock add row had such a list; the Reaper page did not.
  • Diagnostics v1.3.53: two address-shaped names stay readable. The report's sanitizer masked the speed-test
    engine's four-part version and a WDS link's interface name (wds1.1.1.0) as external addresses; the version
    prints as "v3.8.0 build 235" and WDS names are kept.

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.
