Cloudhub on Pi3B+

On the VirtualHere USB Server Changes (2.7.5 onwards)
I saw:

3.6.2 (19th April 2018)
------------------------------
* Pi3B+ - will automatically ignore in-built usb ethernet adapter on the new Pi3B+

So I ordered some Pi3B+. After they arrived I went to the cloudhub download page and saw:

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B cloudhub-pi3-sdcard.zip (note: not compatible with the new 3B+ yet...)

Any idea when/if cloudhub will work on Pi3B+?

Im away on holidays at the moment until mid July. When i get back home i will create the cloudhub 3b+ image

By that time im pretty sure the code is stabilized in the openwrt tree. Its very close now as i see in the last few weeks some important commits have been made.

The change i made a few months ago is not for the cloudhub image, it is for the normal vhusbdarm(pi3) build of the server

Im back from holidays and made a new cloudhub build with the latest openwrt for pi3b+.

The WLAN works both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz now on the 3B+

However the LAN does not work.

So it looks like another few weeks until it will be ready. I'll try again in a week or two to see if the LAN is fixed.

I posted the cloudhub image for the 3B+ to https://www.virtualhere.com/hardware . The ethernet wont work at the moment, but the wifi does so its quite usable.

Are there any new developments in this plan?

We get the following error after put-in certain number of USB devices in p3b +:

"ERROR :: assign_and_init_hc: 1408: assign_and_init_hc: Failed to allocate memory to handle non-dword aligned buffer case"

But installing VirtualHere CloudHub on pi4 can solve this problem.

Most of our licenses are pi3b +, so we will hope to fix this problem by installing pi3b + 's VirtualHere CloudHub.

No the 3b+ is not supported on cloudhub, it's best to use the pi4. It seems like you might be hitting a hardware limit on the pi3b+
