| + | - Enable telnet server | ||
| + | * Log in to www interface, lets assume it is at address '' | ||
| + | * In address bar go to hidden sub-page: '' | ||
| + | * In input box enter: < | ||
| + | * Test if telnet server is working: telnet to the router | ||
| + | * Note: this hack may not work on all firmware versions, I have tested it successfully on 2.21b. (Does **not** work on 2.22f, 2.24g and 2.26c: A link to busybox exists, but busybox was compiled without this plugin). | ||

| + | |||
| + | ==== Notes ==== | ||
| + | In case of problems it should be possible to flash back to original firmware via tftp firmware restore method. | ||
| + | - Unplug power from Edimax | ||
| + | - Press Wps/Reset button, and hold it while plugging in power | ||
| + | - Manually set IP address on your PC.\\ <code bash> | ||
| + | IP Address: 192.168.1.2 | ||
| + | Netmask: 255.255.255.0 | ||
| + | Gateway: 192.168.1.1 | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | - download tftp utility [[http:// | ||
| + | * make sure you use binary mode (using text mode may result in infinite slow flashing of wifi led) | ||
| + | * perhaps waiting 5-10 minutes after firmware upload would be sufficient for it to flash | ||
| + | - after flash you may see your settings from prior OpenWrt installation restored | ||

| + | ===== Buttons ===== | ||
| + | To be able to control Wi-Fi with wlan on/off switch which is located next to antenna port, you have to make two scripts and put them into **/ | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | mkdir / | ||
| + | cd / | ||
| + | touch 00-wlan | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | Put this script into **00-wlan** (this script switches WIFI ON): | ||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | if [ " | ||
| + | if [ " | ||
| + | uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=0 && uci commit && wifi up | ||
| + | fi | ||
| + | fi | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | Now make the second script: | ||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | touch 01-wlan | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | Put this script into **01-wlan** (this script switches WIFI OFF): | ||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | if [ " | ||
| + | if [ " | ||
| + | uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=1 && uci commit && wifi down | ||
| + | fi | ||
| + | fi | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | Now you can switch wifi on/off with the wlan switch :) | ||
