Asus RT-N13U B1 - DD-wrt thread
- Thread starter dinjo
- Start date
- Status
With encouragement from dinjo and the itch in my posterior, I took the leap of faith and tried flashing the B1 using TFTP. I have had success but took rather curious steps which I'm documenting here hoping it will help someone in the future. This is what I did:
1. As I wasn't able to use AFRU, I installed TFTP on my Ubuntu desktop.
sudo apt-get install tftp
2. Then I manually configured the desktop IP to 192.168.1.15 (yes, .15 is the curious part) and 192.168.1.1 as the gateway. I got the idea from this gentleman here (http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/asus/rt-n10plus). Don't ask how or why, it just worked for me. I was searching google far and wide and RT-N10+ had Ralink SoC and the guy was having problems with AFRU, yada yada...
3. Then I put the router in recovery mode. Tried pinging 192.168.1.1 with no success. Still connected with TFTP and did the following:
$ tftp
tftp> binary
tftp> connect 192.168.1.1
tftp> put asus-to-ddwrt.trx
Sent 6336512 bytes in 7.5 seconds
tftp> quit
4. I waited for 5 very long minutes (the power LED and the LAN1 LED were continously ON during this time) and kept the pinging 192.168.1.1. At first the ping gave Destination Host Unreachable. Here comes the climax...
5. After 5 minutes the ping came alive, I logged into DD-WRT web-interface and lived happily ever after
Like all good movies with a bittersweet ending, the power LED on the B1 seems to remain OFF after the router has booted successfully. I mean when I power on the router, the LED comes ON. But after the router has booted and the wireless LED comes ON, power LED goes OFF and stays that way for the rest of the session. I have done a basic test and the DHCP, LAN, WAN, wireless etc seem to be working fine. Seems like the router wants to play hard to get. Bring it on, I say...
Cheers

Anything above 192.168.1.10 + is safe does not have to be .15 that's the way tftp works just in case you are not comfortable there are several Windows GUI available for tftp just select firmware and upload,
Remove the LAN cable and power cable for 5 minutes then plug it again the power light would come up, if still can't flash the firmware again from DD WRT web gui.

hi dinjo,
I finally was able to flash my router with tftp method as suggested above. But now unable to mount disk and install optware. I have a 320Gb harddisk, I configured 2GB as EXT3 for optware and rest for NTFS (Though I know you suggest ext3 only, i need to be able to use NTFS).
So I configured the disk using VirtualBox + Gparted Live and it seeems all fine. I have attached the disk to the router, however I can't see the disc as mounted. I come from Windows background so please do not mind my newbie attitude towards this.

Perhaps my rambling post above must have confused you dinjo, but I had successfully flashed the router with DD-WRT and just wanted to outline the steps I took to get it done.
I tried unplugging the power cord for 5 minutes with LAN/WAN cables disconnected. Like I said earlier, upon starting the router, the power LED comes up and when the router is booted (say 5 sec after power on), only the power LED goes OFF and stays that way until next reboot. Other than that all LEDs are working fine. And everything else seems to be good too. Just seems like an asthetic niggle which I can live with. I have been using DD-WRT since y'day and there have been no reboots. I'm on r16994.
Thanks to your excellent guide, I have installed optware in no time. I'm using the direct FS method and have managed to connect USB hub with two drives on it. So far so good.
Cheers

Yes, I have created a 2 MB partition on my USB-PEN. Since, I have a USB hub, I'm using USB-Pen for /opt and USB-HDD for /mnt (since there is a risk of transmission thrashing my pen drive). Also, I needed the flexibilty of removing my HDD.
On the first partition on my USB-pen (2 MB one) I did a block copy of fs.gz. The second partition is ext3 used for optware. For now, this is how my startup script looks like:

/opt/bin/transmission-daemon -g /mnt/data/torrents/.config/transmission-daemonHi dinjo,
No matter what I try, I can't get second partition to mount. As per your suggestions I formatted to ext3 (instead of earlier ntfs).
The /opt gets mounted, but /mnt doesn't get mounted no matter what I do. I have deleted partitions and recreated atleast 3 times
. BTW disk is fine as I have tried it under Ubuntu.
Help!

Hi #dinjo
Really appreciate your helping attitude...
I use the same startup script that you gave in first post, and added "sh" command to run the fs.wanup :

got mixed. (sorry can't edit it as giving permission error), here's the startup script
Just to recap, my "opt" gets mounted, but "mnt" doesn't even though as per your suggestion, I changed second partition to ext3.
Hi #dinjo, Sorry I am in office right now, my router is at home. Are you online on saturday evening like 7-7.30 or so?
