MR3020 Not Redirecting to PirateBox Homepage
February 14, 2017 04:13AM
So I stumbled across this idea a week or so ago when looking for a new project. I picked myself up an MR3020 and a large flashdrive. I sat down one night and set to work setting up my new piratebox.

I got the box up and running and a new network appeared on my wifi connection screen. I successfully connected to the network with the SSID, "OpenWRT" but upon opening www.google.com and refreshing many times I was not redirected to the piratebox homepage.

I spent a week or so browsing the forums looking for similar situations to my own. I found many posts with some commands to output to make your lives easier so I've put those at the bottom of this post as well. I'm not too familiar with OpenWRT so please excuse my "noobyness".

Like I said I don't really know much about OpenWRT but I'd assume that the issue resides in the absence of the /mnt/usb/PirateBox, /opt/piratebox, /opt/piratebox/version smiling smiley Although, I don't really know how to go about getting those files.

If I missed any commands please let me know as I'd be happy to post them. Thank you all for your time and for the read. Have a wonderful rest of your day!

Hi,
did you use the OpenWrt image from our website?
We have customized it.. but according to the posted output, it looks pretty close...

please give me the output of the following commands:

 cat /etc/pbx_custom_image
 cat /etc/openwrt_release
ls -l  /mnt/usb/install
tail -n 100 /mnt/usb/install.log

If you already had a first try and then reflashed: please place a fresh copy of the install folder.
Or you might try this method: [forum.piratebox.cc]

sorry for my late answer,
best regards
Matthias
