Installation
→ Install OpenWrt (generic explanation)
Apply factory image via http web-gui or via JBOOT recovery service.
To revert changes, please upload stock firmware via JBOOT recovery service.
JBOOT recovery service
- Push the reset button and turn on the power. Wait until LED start blinking (~10sec.)
- Upload original factory image via JBOOT http (IP: 192.168.123.254)
- If http doesn't work, it can be done with curl command:
curl -F FN=@XXXXX.bin http://192.168.123.254/upg
where
XXXXX.binis name of firmware file.
