installing on a SamKnows TL-WDR3600

Post by oliver »

My SamKnows commitment is nearly up so I'll have a TP-Link WDR3600 (v1.4) available.

I've telnet'ed in (by mashing the WLS button) and it's currently running OpenWRT AA r35093.

When operating normally, it only listens on port 2222 for ssh so there's no web interface

Am I correct in thinking I'll need to do the following?

1) telnet in
2) # mount_root
3) scp the 3600 sysupgrade bin file to /tmp
4) # mtd -r write /tmp/gargoyle_1.7.0-ar71xx-generic-tl-wdr3600-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin firmware

Is there any reason or benefit to start with the factory.bin file? Any reason not to try the 1.7 branch?

Thanks
