Can't access piratebox after enabling it for getting internet access March 21, 2016 09:48PM |
Hi all,
I'm a webdeveloper and now a bit about technology, however I'm a bit stuck.
Last week I started experimenting with a TP-Link 3020. Following the standard instructions everything went fine. But then I went on doing more special things and I ... failed
.
So I tried the "Enable your box for getting internet access" -> see [piratebox.cc]
Then I tried [piratebox.cc] but opkg -d ext install extendRoot-php lighttpd-mod-fastcgi failed, probably because I had connected the 3020 via ethernet to my mac rather than to the internet.
Fast forward a couple of days later and I don't have the original usb stick anymore. (but that should not be a big problem? right? I just created a new usb stick with the standard pirate box installation file).
When I boot the the piratebox, I still see the wireless network appear but can't connect to it anymore (also not through the cable). I tried the failsafe method, and the tftp method but either failed (or I'm doing it wrong).
Does anyone have an idea how to reset my 3020, or just to get a connection again? The issue is that I need to get into it via ethernet but that that part is reversed currently. right?
