Hi!
While trying and trying to solve the problem of the unwilling wlan WRT54G I tried a lot of things. And I enabled successfully the hidden 16MB of RAM, lucky me :-)
But now I tried something stupid. I flashed OpenWRT and tried and tried. But I was not successfull with that software so I flashed back to DD-WRT... Outch!
Not the router is booting with flashing lights, enabling switch, stopping the blinking power LED and then starting up wlan. But I cannot access the router in any way. No wlan, lo lan, none of my personal ip work and no standard/default ip addresses let me in. TFTP doesn't work, nothing, nothing, nothing.
So I did a flying wire attach of a serial port mod to ttys0 and found the following coming out:

Looks like it is sarching for a dhcp lease but cannot due to a misconfiguration of the network interfaces. If I read that right the network IF are not started.
So I tried 30s reset, before while and after powerOn. None worked. What to do next?
Help, please

Ok, I don't know what I did, but I found out ( whoha, what a dummy user I am...) that I have full console access via serial. May be it needed a while until it reacted, so I didn't found that out directly when I first posted this thread.
So I am in and I totally reflashed the box with the lastest snapshot.
I have set up everything and can access the router via web, ssh and serial console without any problem. But ...
I still have the problem I ever had before. It tells me hundrets of correctly TXed packets and none received ones. Funny thing is, that the other WDS router is telling me he's seeing it and it has a better SNR than the one I am actually using for the connection.
So what I can see is the following in the console that makes me stunning:
| Code: |
Action wireless_2
function stop_guest_nas not found
bridge br0 is still up; can't delete it
eth1: Invalid argument
eth1: Invalid argument
device br0 already exists; can't create bridge with the same name
br0: No such file or directory
br0: No such file or directory
eth1: Invalid argument
eth1: Invalid argument
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
lo: File exists
submit_button=[Wireless_Advanced] service=[wireless_2] sleep_time=[0] action=[3]
nvram_commit(): end

And I have a lot of:

What I mean are those 'SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device' messages, that I don't understand.
Any help?
Thanks in advance
