      @stephenw10 Thanks, what is good news is the new 2100-MAX ships with 128GB SSD over the 32GB SSD in 2019.
      So essentially the 2100 can use the SWAP now off the SSD. Again I have it enabled running it works, I am running clamAV and it uses 3% has been running for a hour or so now, as soon as I load the wifi card I get system cashes, but no crash data. It is like there is no linker file pointing to that folder or something. Good news is the swap functions very well I no longer have to disable clamAV when Snort updates it just works without killing snort. Historically it would kill the snort process each and every update of the database. This time it started to use the SWAP when it ran out of memory. So it does function as designed with memory exhaustions. It has to be something simple like pointing a linker file

        Yeah OK it's because manually editing the fstab it's easy to omit the required new-line character at the end of the additional line. That then trips up the rc.dumpon script so it never gets enabled at boot.

        So make sure your fstab looks like:

        [24.03-RELEASE][root@2100-3.stevew.lan]/root: cat /etc/fstab
        # Device                Mountpoint      FStype  Options         Dump    Pass#
        /dev/msdosfs/EFISYS     /boot/efi       msdosfs rw,noatime,noauto       0       0
        /dev/msdosfs/DTBFAT0    /boot/msdos     msdosfs rw,noatime,noauto       0       0
        /dev/ada0s3b            none    swap    sw              0       0
        [24.03-RELEASE][root@2100-3.stevew.lan]/root: 
        

        And not:

        24.03-RELEASE][root@2100-3.stevew.lan]/root: cat /etc/fstab
        # Device                Mountpoint      FStype  Options         Dump    Pass#
        /dev/msdosfs/EFISYS     /boot/efi       msdosfs rw,noatime,noauto       0       0
        /dev/msdosfs/DTBFAT0    /boot/msdos     msdosfs rw,noatime,noauto       0       0
        /dev/ada0s3b            none    swap    sw              0       0[24.03-RELEASE][root@2100-3.stevew.lan]/root:
        

        Then run:

        [24.03-RELEASE][root@2100-3.stevew.lan]/root: /etc/rc.dumpon
        Using /dev/ada0s3b for dump device.
        

        Or reboot.

        You should then see that enabled:

        [24.03-RELEASE][root@2100-3.stevew.lan]/root: dumpon -l
        ada0s3b
        

        If you then trigger a panic you should see a crash report. You can manually trigger one as a test using: sysctl debug.kdb.panic=1

          Thank you that fixed it!!

          Amazing to see this run on the SG-2100 with that 1 million hr SSD with self leveling it should be fine to use a swap area..

          Screenshot 2024-05-07 at 14.22.50.png

          I manually triggered the crash and it works now.

          So it was missing a carriage return is all it was to cause that issue weird one.

          Does a Redmine need to be open to enable this for other 2100-MAX users that have the large SSD installed? It should be auto enabled right?

          I would upvote you but I ran out of upvotes today I used them all on your posts helping me I will upvote it tomorrow.

            Yup, that was puzzling! (thanks @jimp) But good to know.

            Lets see if all your crashes are the same now.

                      Yeah that looks pretty much the same. More is useful though just to be sure.

                      You have a bunch of ath tunables if I recall? Have you tested without those?

                        @stephenw10 I removed all of them a while ago once it started working normally before the GB fiber

                        The only one I have left is

                        vfs.read_max Cluster read-ahead max block count = 128 for Squid

                              That's not ath specific though, should be fine

                                @stephenw10 I wonder if I set channels wrong or something on the config side I have it set to 802.11a/n channel 151 or something and I think 11 for FCC with anywhere set and 60second for rekey and 3600 for group that was default values I have BSSintra communication set to no I just don't understand why it worked perfectly with the DSL and won't work now, I also use a traffic shaper for limiters CODEL with it set to 1000mbps to match my fiber line with 5000 for the length same thing reboots when I use that card

                                    Yup, it probably is. And it could well be specific to aarch64. There can't be many people using that combination.

                                    Do you have several full crash reports yet?

                                      @stephenw10 They wanted it submitted with the chipset info so they have what they need I guess.. I am confused as why it worked with 6mbs but not with the full speed that one report we got to them worked for finding the issue

                                        You opened a bug? A ticket?

                                            Ok cool. It's specifically the Compex WLE200NX right? You should add that info to the bug.
