You tickled my brain about something I'd seen a while back (by which I mean
a month or two ago... I have PC-XT kinds of memory...) that might be
helpful to you... dunno...

oo that's a throw-back :)

what's the actual chip IC number and is it a bare IC or already on a
DIMM? some of the 32mb / 64mb DDR1 SDRAMs are still used by the
MIPS-based routers (including this RT5350) - it just depends what it
is.

ha ha very funny.... it actually turns out that all you need to do is
XOR some pseudo-random "garbage" over the packet and the Great
Fuckwall of China's real-time deep packet inspection can't do jack
shit.

... so i *haven't been able to use that little VPN* because the
moment i switch it on, the GFW will go "oh look, that's openvpn
spanggggg" and that UDP or TCP port is blocked for about 24 hours.

the main problem isn't actually the blocking itself, it's the
un-fucking-believably-slow speed that totally fucks *everything* up.

the actual underlying problem is the timeouts and errors that occur
(interference with HTTPS traffic due to brain-dead substitution of the
contents of packets... *even* over a VPN) - i explained it in a
cluster-fuck bug report on bugs.chromium.org:

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=675411

... :)

I remember that it was originally supposed to be April this year I think. Is that still true? Pretty excited but I understand of course if there have been delays.

Its my understanding that they will be shipped soon after multiple working prototypes have been achieved.

yep. this question has been answered a number of times, now, both in
updates and multiple times on the list.
