the attached tool allows you to reconfigure redboot, even if you dont know its ip, or if the ip is just not configured (0.0.0.0)
its based on the fonera flashtool sources by Sven Ola and i want to provide it here at this place to help people with EOC device flashing problems.
the tool will simply use a bug in redboot, to enter it and to configure its ip to 192.168.1.1
before using the tool, please ensure to install winpcap. a linux and macosx version will be provided later.
consider that it will work with any redboot based device
sometimes you will need several tries until it works, but for me the maximum was almost 3 times _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s

hi all,
sorry if this stupid questions. i tried to install dd-wrt to engenius 2610 but i can't find redboot, trying hundreds time and follow the procedure (^C and enter) but still can't make redboot appear. please help!. will using dd-wrt with adhoc for 100 mining trucks!

:-)
Download putty.exe to c:\
create a file on c:\ called redboot.txt, with the following content:
^C
create a file on c:\ called redboot.bat with the following content:
rem echo off
:start
rem ------------------------------------------------
ping 192.168.20.81 -n 1 -w 1 >NUL
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 goto start
rem putty
rem ------------------------------------------------
break
putty.exe telnet://192.168.20.81:9000 -m redboot.txt
exit
Start the redboot.bat file and power on the router.
You should get the Redboot prompt within 5 seconds or so.
Good luck

I would like to say a very big thanx to the author of this tool, it saved me, when I was thinking that there was nothing to do anymore as I bricked my la fonera, this was the only real solution that worked. For me the serial cable didn't work either, so thanx again.
I try to fix (DIR-300DD-WRT working normaly but i can update firmware only over web interface) and what I got
C:\>redboot-fix.exe \Device\NPF_{26AFCAA8-DEE7-4BB9-8A12-FB6F980194D8}
No packet.

Hi all - I have 2 2610s. I used the wrong script to flash the first one and then tried a revert, now redboot sends out an arp request asking "who has 0.0.0.0". So I am assuming it needs an IP address and I want to try to use the tool BrainSlayer mentioned, but I can't find the link! Can someone re-post it?
