Flashing Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH
Hi, I dont know how to SSH to this router.
I tried putty with settings Host-192.168.1.1 port 22.
The router is currently on dd wrt
when I finally be able to ssh, it appears as below
"login as:"
what should i enter here?
i tried "admin" which the router's username. then it appears :
"admin@192.168.1.1's password:"
here I cannot type anything.
I just tried entering the routers password eventhough nothing appears and this happens
"access denied"
please help me. I think i am stuck at a very easy point

Re: Flashing Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH
If you setup DD-WRT on that router, it should be the user and
password that you setup when you first configured the router.
Just enter the Username and Password you entered right at the
start after flashing DD-WRT to the router.
If you cannot remember what it was - you will have to reset it
or re-flash DD-WRT and then re-configure again.
Don't forget the User/Password combo you entered in!

For DD-WRT you have to use "root" as login if you don't log in at the web GUI.

Re: Flashing Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH
Same thing on mine. My understanding is that those have to be programmed in the firmware, just like the buttons (reset, usb eject, etc...). I really don't care about the lights, myself.ducky wrote:Have successfully installed Gargoyle in my WZR-HP-G300NH. Everything is working except Security LED and wireless LED not lighting up.

Re: Flashing Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH
Actually, I'm very surprised how easy to flash this. I already have DD-WRT running on my Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH and below is what I did.
- I downloaded http://www.gargoyle-router.com/download ... pgrade.bin and saved it on my PC.
- I used http://winscp.net/eng/download.php#download2 to connect to the router and just copy the bin file using binary transfer mode to /tmp folder on the router.
- Then I connect to router using putty (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgta ... nload.html) and navigate to /tmp folder on router and typed in the following command and that's it.
mtd -r write gargoyle_1.3.12-ar71xx-wzr-hp-g300nh-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin linux
This method suits for those who want to do it offline like I did. Just be aware that after reboot with gargoyle, the new IP will be 192.168.1.1 so if you fixed your PC with 192.168.11.x then you'll need to obtain new IP automatically to be able to connect to the router.

Re: Flashing Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH
To get the lights working, you will need to edit a file. This is slightly involved but in no way too difficult. I'm assuming minimal experience doing this through the router's command line, so I'll be thorough in my explanation. Forgive me if this is too "dumbed down."
You will be adding a section to the /etc/config/system file. I find the editor Nano to be fairly easy to use. However, it is not installed by default. This tutorial includes the installation of Nano.
1. SSH to router and log in. ie. ssh root@192.168.1.1
Username will be root. Password is whatever you set. Password is typed blind from command line.
2. Enter following commands:
opkg update
opkg install nano
cd /etc/config
nano system
3. You have now opened the /etc/config/system file in Nano. Add the following to the bottom of this file:
config 'led'
option 'sysfs' 'wzr-hp-g300nhsecurity'
option 'name' 'Security'
option 'trigger' 'netdev'
option 'dev' 'wlan0'
option 'mode' 'link'
config 'led'
option 'name' 'Wireless'
option 'sysfs' 'wzr-hp-g300nh:green:wireless'
option 'trigger' 'netdev'
option 'dev' 'mon.wlan0'
option 'mode' 'link tx rx'
config 'led'
option 'name' 'Router'
option 'sysfs' 'wzr-hp-g300nh:green:router'
option 'trigger' 'netdev'
option 'dev' 'eth0'
option 'mode' 'link tx rx'
4. Press Ctrl+o (this saves the file)
Press enter (confirming the filename)
Press Ctrl+x (exits nano)
5. Exit from ssh session.
6. Reboot router.
Hope this helps.
