Installed on my Archer C7 V2. Configured from scratch (well, mostly, copied over dhcp config and hosts), but am running into a problem with the firewall configuration. I want to block some devices, but if I do so, save the setting and open it up again for editing, it switches back from "nothing...

I did issue the firstboot command, which didn't finish. After that, I tried mounting /dev/mtdblock3 to overlay but was lacking the necessary "-t jffs2" parameter. Adding that one, the partition is mounted but seems to have been erased as announced by jffs2reset. Okay, will try another reb...

mount_root takes a second or two, but seems to do nothing. Yes, it just happens, but the command will be executed in the background. a) FAILSAFE MODE is very limited. b) mount_root gives you access to the "/overlay" folder (in this directory is all configuration) after entering "moun...

O.K. step by step: 1. Turn on the router 2. when the LED is blinking, press reset = LED will blink even faster. 3. You got into "FAILSAFE MODE" and in this mode connect with ssh/telnet (you have already got there once) 4. Run the command: mount_root rm -r /overlay/upper/usr/data/* &&a...

So to understand and summarize, do you still have a USB drive connected and use it as an extroot? And when you disconnect a USB drive, will the router normally boot up? No, no and no. The drive is currently connected to my Linux PC. It contains two partitions, a big one for Data and a small swap. I...

Something fishy has been going on here... I've attached the external drive to my Linux PC. Trying to backup it, I got an error message. Started e2fsck, and that one reports thousands of multiply-claimed blocks. I'll have to purge the affected directories, as there's no way to know which of the files...

Yes well that log is definitely from failsafe, but the first one (unless you cut out the failsafe text under the banner) is not. That's what I said, I was cutting too much text. I was only ever able to log in via SSH once the router was in failsafe. I don't know if it is really documented anywhere,...

That doesn’t look like failsafe. It looks like a fully booted device. And you’re saying that it looks like all your settings are now gone? It’s possible you triggered a firstboit by holding the button down too long. Maybe I did, Is this documented somewhere? The only thing I read everywhere is &quo...

Here's the first tutorial: https://www.gargoyle-router.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=10912#p52470 or If you get into ssh, run this line and the loop should stop. rm -r /usr/data/* && reboot -f This will erase the damaged bandwidth usage data and the use of the web pages. I can't get in...

Hi there, I've got myself a problem :cry: My production main router is caught in a boot loop. I was modifying some firewall rules from the GUI when all of a sudden the router would stop responding and I lost internet access. The rooter boots and immediately shuts down again, the uptime is too short ...
