NEW OPEN WRT SUPPORT FOR TP-Link TL-MR10U

Hey Matthias,

I ordered the TL-MR10u says on the back it is ver 1.

I haven't tried to push the reset button yet but I suppose that the flashing lights that is on the other models may be the same here ??

Thanks,
Robert

Hi Robert,
I don't know yet. I assume it, because it should be the same part of the operating system (compared to the mr3020).

I have a MR10U here too, but no time to test it yet


Matthias

Updated the images under: [stable.openwrt.piratebox.de]

Will check today if i have time very busy this week

after a long hiatus and testing jochen's android piratebox i got my unfinsished tl-mr10u install and started to figure out how to make it failsafe

i tried the following
turning the device on and off

and also this... see video below:

video description:

How to access failsafe mode on TL-MR10U

Switch on device, it will blink for a few seconds and stop blinking

after stop blinking use a pin or toothpick to press the reset button repeatedly until the frequency of blinking light increases (blinking faster than normal).

if you have original firmware for TL-MR10u please post it on the comments below.

Hi Mathias or anyone,

EDIT Latest:

Looks like i bricked the mr10u bigtime hahaha, now i will order TL-MR3040 or just use my PirateBox android.

after testing failsafe mode i was only able to go up to this point:

after mount_root i have changed my password thru passwd

i have also found the bin file for the said firmware for tl-mr10u v1

i cant winscp the bin file to /tmp as it is being revoked thru scp connections i also tried ftp



any ideas how i can go from here?

Hi,
why do you think it is bricked now?

Matthias

the led is only flashing twice when switched on

Ok, that isn't very well
Maybe you can fix it with using serial interface... :/

Any news for this device? working with PB 1.0?

Yes, see: [piratebox.cc]
