In this post, rather than the other one you're helping me in, I'm asking for:

Does anybody have a copy or link to documentation for the hardware?

... If a serial cable can do that for me, I'd pay good money for it! ...

Cheers for the warning ispisail. As I use 64 bit Linux, would that still be the appropriate cable?

Hey ispyisail, thanks for the advice.

I believe I'm heading that way, but I'd have to buy one first.

I'm holding out a little hope that there's a special feature of the Hornet UB that I'm not aware of that may yet save the day..

google "openwrt failsafe reset" Thanks for your response ispyisail. Unfortunately the link and search you posted don't provide a manual for the GPR02 or a description of what the hardware button actually does. For my attempt to put my GPR02 into failsafe, see my other thread: https://www....

Mostly it is Power LED Thanks RomanHK. I've seen the power blinking behaviour before. In fact, I've actually managed to recover my Dir 835 using fail safe mode a week back... Unfortunately I may have messed things up using the button yesterday. Today, no button blinks the same way I've seen it on m...

The GPR02 was (is?) a router that was on-sold by gargoyle-router.com with Gargoyle pre-installed. It used the Alfa Hornet UB board (https://openwrt.org/toh/alfa_network/hornet-ub). I have one, and was very happy with it until I messed up its configuration (refer my concurrent post). Does anybody hav...

Thanks RomanHK, I had a read through.

It appears that I'm only left with the expert options to get into failsafe mode. I'll try them if that ends up being my only means forward...

Ok, I had a shot at entering the failsafe mode that both RomanHK and Lantis suggested. Unfortunately I don't see the LED pattern described and shown in the YouTube video. Instead I see the following pattern immediately after I power on: Power [Stays On] ~ 1s LAN ~ 3s WAN ~ 5s LAN ... with no further...

A follow on question from RomanHK's advice...

Does the GPR02 have nothing similar to more common home routers?

That is, carry out a magic sequence of button pushing and power cycling and the device resets to defaults?

Thanks RomanHK, I'll give it a shot...
