I am finding my experience with the new UI to be annoying. It used to be drop dead simple. I am running a Rocky Linux 8 desktop (because I want to for stability and long lifespan). Anyhow, trying to Linux version craps out requiring GLIB 2.29 when I only have 2.28-251, and probably can't get 2.29 for my system.
I have always just ran the Windows version under Wine or Crossover. It also crashes. I found all of this out after upgrading a couple of my routers to 7.17.2. It would have been nice to know before hand. I jumped on a Windows virtual machine and logged into one of those and now it will not allow me to login to it again--all of this because I wanted to upgrade my firmware.
I had turned on an ACCEPT all INPUT rule in the firewall temporarily to get updates. I only logged in to click disable on that. Now I appear locked out of that firewall and will have to physically visit the site to see if I can get in perhaps even by console. I hope that isn't a glitch in the beta software.
Maybe I can get used to the new UI, but it would be really nice if you would compile another Linux version that supports older systems with glib 2.28-251, etc for people like me. I despise when I have to completely redo my operating system just to get one application working again when it was just fine before.
UPDATE: At least I did upgrade from 3.4 to 3.41 and see that I can still attach that way. Thank you for that. Oddly, logging in to this router that would not let me in on the new interface does on 3.41.
