i think this has been answered elsewhere, but its possible to go back to 1.12 from 1.13 or higher right?
Cool, gonna flash this tonight and will report back after some time monitoring
Waiting on information.
Does the DMZ and DDNS seem fixed to you? How about PE_Loop logs entries? Any duplicate icons?
The PE_loop log entries are still there.
Jan 27 21:23:12 (NOTICE): pe_loop: add_msg returned 0.
Jan 27 21:23:12 (NOTICE): pe_loop: Got add message
I have been running the 1.13B04 Beta for about four days now. No duplicate icons that I can see. I don't use DMZ or DDNS so I don't know if those problems are fixed. I haven't run across any other issues yet. The router has been really stable for me since going 1.13 with no random restarts.
I went from 1.12B05 to 1.13B04.
ABE not working for me either and it was working on 1.12B05. It now gets stuck on testing, and I suspect the down/up values that are used are merely the last successful ABE result or whatever was last manually inputted/interally speed tested and saved.
wxstorm, do you think this is correct? Maybe you could change your values to round numbers, turn ABE back on and see if they change despite the neverending testing? This should confirm whether or not its as I think it is.
On 1.12B05 I had no icons in the my network screen after a few days, just the internet and my router. Hopefully this won't happen in 1.13B04.
Haven't done any gaming but web browsing was as responsive as before. Seems okay so far. No http errors (500, 413, etc.)
mrjezza - I think the ABE speeds are probably a bit high based on all the testing I did today. I would get on average 44mb/2.75mb during the day with little traffic on my network. I turned off ABE and will be discounting everything from the router overnight to see if those speedtest request I was seeing on opendns were from the router. I will try entering in my own values next and see what happens. It is really hard to troubleshoot we all those "pe_loop: add_msg returned 0" in the log. There is usually entries when I reboot to say that ABE is testing the bandwidth but if I don't check it in the first 10 minutes its gone. I haven't seen any logs entries after that to say that ABE tests again. Not sure if there is suppose to be a log entry for each ABE test either. Maybe Furry knows. I will play around here and let you all know what I find.
So turned off ABE but left SB on last night through today. From midnight to 630am only one computer was connected to the router. There were no requests sent to any speedtest related site during that period. In fact not one request has been sent to any speedtest site today even with all my other devices turned on during the day. I also noticed that there were no requests sent to *.in-addr.arpa (which is a reverse dns lookup request according to OpenDNS). I would see on a daily basis anywhere from 350,000 to 13,000 request to that address when ABE is on. I honestly don’t know if that matters as much as the average 8,000 speedtest request a day but I figure I would share it. It appears the router with ABE on is sending http requests to speedtest.com. I will let it run for another day with ABE off before I manually set the speeds and turn ABE back on to see if they get updated. I wish I could know when the speedtest request are happening but OpenDNS doesn’t save the time of each requests (at least not in the free version). Only the number of requests. Let me know if there is something else you want me to try.
Furry if you were asking me, I am using the Motorola SB6141 modem.

DynDNS hasn't worked for me on any of the 1.13 series beta FW. It was working fine with 1.12B05 FW. I use NoIP.com as the DynDNS provider. I did a full factory reset and input all settings by scratch when updating, as I do with all FW updates. Doesn't appear that Port Forwarding is working either. I am going to do another factory reset and try again.
Just wanted to give my 2 cents about this FW as I usually don't flash beta OEM but usually go with 3rd party FWs for my routers and access points. I flashed this FW earlier today and everything seems nice and stable. I'm streaming 2 Netflix movies, have the kids downloading apps on their devices, daughter is watching YouTube, and my World of Warcraft ping increased by 6ms. This is 100% why I purchased this router is to do just this.
I have SB on and ABE off currently but wasn't having an issue with ABE when I turned it on this morning and left it on for a few hours. With SB off I ran a speed test and got speeds of 20 down and 12 up. I turned SB on and manually set the speeds to 20 down and 12 up to match and am getting 80%-85% of those speeds as I expected for QoS.
Coming from FW 1.12 b05, the My Networks > Priorities area is now working flawless for me. In FW 1.12 b05 it was overlapping each line so it was unreadable when in Safari.
With FW 1.12 b05 the Admin GUI kept slowing down after about 6 hours of up time and I would have to restart for it to become usable again. I am happy to say that is no longer the case with this FW. About 12 hours uptime now without any slowdown.
The PE_Loop log messages persisted. I unchecked 'System Activity' under Status > Logs to hide them.
Note: For reference I don't have a usual setup. I am using a TP-Link R470T+ to load balance 3 ISPs, TL-SL2210 for the home office, DGL-5500 for home internet, and a UniFi UAP-LR Access Point for those long range connections and to limit guests access with limited speeds. The UAP-LR and the DGL-5500 play very nice together with no issues.

Overall i'd say i'm extremely happy with this FW and it has made my DGL-5500 more stable. I was considering flashing OpenWRT however now I really don't see a need to as this FW fixed some of the annoyances I was experiencing in 1.12 b05.

Does the SB test complete for you?

I am located in a rural area in Colorado. The only ISPs I get in the area are WiMax, no DSL or Cable. The ISPs I use are;
Diverse Datum - WiMax - 30 Down / 30 Up
Kellin Communications - WiMax - 5 Down / 2 Up
Skybeam - WiMax - 20 Down / 4 Up
All 3 are plugged into my TP-Link R470T+ with speeds allocated to the DGL-5500 of 20 Down / 12 Up. The rest of the bandwidth is allocated to my home office.
I have SB & ABE on and the ABE Status is stuck at 'Testing'. It has not completed (read my note below). When doing a speed test with ABE on I am getting consistent speeds of 15 Down / 10 Up which is about 80% of allocated bandwidth.
With SB on and ABE off the 'Test Bandwidth' button works just fine. Manually entering in my speeds of 20 Down / 12 Up nets me 17 Down / 10 Up which is exactly 85% of the entered speeds.
NOTE: I am also monitoring bandwidth from the TP-Link R470T+ with an external monitor and am not showing ANY connections to any speed test sites with ABE on from the DGL-5500 nor am I seeing any notable bandwidth usage coming from the DGL-5500 itself other than the clients that are connected. So it seems as even though ABE is turned on and the status is 'Testing' it's actually not testing or doing anything.
On the TP-Link R470T+ 'Traffic Control' allows me to do manual QoS or, in my case, allocate a certain amount of bandwidth to certain devices. I have 20 Down / 12 Up allocated to the DGL-5500 with no QoS being done. It balances the 3 connections in a round robin style. A speed test from speedtest.net is a multithreaded test so it allows me to test my load balancing correctly and more accurately from the DGL-5500 as single-threaded test will only show me speeds from a single ISP. Anyways, thanks again for the FW as i'm very pleased with it! ;D
So far so good for me on 1.13B04

This version of firmware is the best for me, so far, thanks for that.
I am wondering if/when we will get proper classification of data. Xbox one does not get classified (I think it gets classified as bittorrent), call of duty comes up when I am playing a different game all together. Watching an Amazon video it gets classified as both Amazon video AND web video, not sure that is necessary. Also, gets classified at "Best fit" even when the device it is playing on has been listed as top priority.
If the prioritization of devices does not mean anything, I would like to have the ability to prioritize protocols or applications myself. I don't know if that is possible, but I thought I would throw that out there.
My router has actually been up for 8 days and I have not seen any other issues.

Here is a better shot. It was a 30 min show. Also there is the bit torrent and Call of Duty, I was playing Destiny all that time :-[.

Edit: Just noticed that under web there is a Green section matching the videos. Now, I wonder if it is getting classified 3 times. Sheesh. Just to reiterate, the video is the only thing going on at that time. No one on xbox or watching another video.

One of the other problems I had involved the priorities randomly changing themselves after awhile. This error is hard to pinpoint but seems to happen after a couple hours of runtime. I have no idea what is causing it and it is just easier at this point to shut off SB. Something tells me it is just a freak thing and will be ironed out when the official comes out.
Other than that the firmware is solid. Pretty darn spiffy for a beta. Can't wait for the real deal.

Have you tried going back to v1.01 to see if there is any differences?I'm sorry but that is not an option. I'm sure the hardware itself is ok considering the significant drop in errors with SB disabled.
What happens with SB and ABE enabled on v1.13?
Well as a test you can enable SB and ABE for a while and test to see what you find out. Then disable SB and ABE afterwards.Bungie has pushed a new update for Destiny. The details are at https://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=12607. It says in the notes:
We don't know what QC does and will do. You could attempt to contact QC directly to see if they have any information regarding this particular problem and see if they can give you any help.
The more they know the more they are apt to do something. We need to be proactive in helping D-Link and QC in any final problems so that they can correct them before any and all development stops and D-Link moves on to other things. I know that QC should be supporting Sb updates till 2017 from what is displayed on the router. After that, I don't know what will happen. Over all, I agree that it's not been a great ride for everyone, including D-Link. We all had high hopes for a great follow on to the 4500, and everyone already knows, the 5500 may not not quite lived up to expectations on certain levels. It's been a crazy ride.
Let us know how it goes. I presume anything that Bungie does only effects there games and may not effect SB or anything related unless Bungie and QC have development ties.Skipped ABE and manually entered advertised speeds considering I average over 10% above those speeds. (Sorry, Furry, ABE is just not going to happen here!) Stability was just as good with SB as without. There were some issues but there were way too many variables to blame SB. My speedtests were going to Chicago instead of to Atlanta which led me to believe that inclement weather was a factor. I was also experiencing a little over 1% packet loss. Combined with the extra resets and firmware flashes it's very hard to nail down the source of the improvements. I also did a modem reset as well. Pretty much the entire laundry list of troubleshooting. I even checked the connections to make sure nothing was wrong there either. I can only guess that the recent patch(es) to Destiny changed the packets coming in and SB was able to better identify the traffic coming in to route it properly. I still get bittorrent traffic when I check the activity log as well as COD traffic. The majority of the traffic identified was game followed by web then bittorrent. Maybe XBone has some sort of peer to peer traffic? Who knows.
Please test with ABE enabled first then disable it after testing and compare notes. Let us know it goes.

Overall I hope D-Link and Qualcom continue to work together to improve the 5500 and SB in particular. It really sucks being an early adopter of D-Link's gaming routers considering how shoddy the firmware is initially but there is no denying that once they work through the initial bugs and kinks that these routers are very solid.

Yes, as well as Destiny. I tried to reach out to Qualcomm about it and did not get a response back. I fear they have given up, and combine that with your thought of end of dev life for the 5500, I feel that it is a lost cause anyway. D-Link stabilized a lot of things in the last update, so we can be happy for that.
Thanks,
