Installation method(s):
GUI OEM
Comment installation:
LuCI Web Interface/uhttpd (also ssh) may NOT be enabled across power cycling after installation, or hard reset. If not - can test by power cycling first, a hard reset brings it back - then ssh, enter '/etc/init.d/uhttpd enable' on the command line, then 'reboot' or '/etc/init.d/uhttpd start' before power cycling or backing up a configuration. Restoring a configuration from after this had been applied also solves the problem.
Recovery method(s):
see devicepage
Comment recovery:
nmrpflash response takes at least 4 min, so be patient.

Comments:
The port mapping on this device is backwards relative to the printed numbers 1-4 on the device. This can be important when configuring LEDE's switch features since Physical 1 --> LAN4, Physical 2 --> LAN3, Physical 3 --> LAN2, and Physical 4 --> LAN1.
