Reflash wrt54gl with linksys firmware.
Here's what I was told. I worked with my WRT54G.
"Download the firmware from the Linksys Web site. (http://www.linksys.com/us/support/)
If you have not already done so enable TFTP on your computer. To enable TFTP open Control Panel > Programs and Features > click Turn Windows features On or Off in left side > enable Client TFTP then click in OK.
Disable the WIFI on your computer.
Set the LAN Port on your computer to use a static IP in the 192.168.1.xxx range. Do not use 1, 2 or 20 for xxx. I normally use 100.
In order to keep the LAN connection open on the computer it is best to use an Ethernet switch between the node and the computer. Connect a Cat 5 cable between a LAN Port on the node and the Switch and a second Cat 5 cable between the switch and the LAN Port on your computer.
In windows explorer navigate to the directory where you placed the firmware file. Right click on the file name and select properties. Highlight the file name and type control-c to copy the file name to the clipboard.
Open a command prompt (Start, All Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt) on your computer.
In the command prompt window, type but do not press enter TFTP –I 192.168.1.1 put
With the cursor in the command prompt window right click your mouse to paste the name of the firmware file into the command. (Be sure to get the full path to the file.) Do Not Press Enter yet.
Here is the tricky part. Remove the power from your node, wait a few seconds and plug it back in. About ½ second later, hit enter on the computer to run the TFPT command. You are trying to hit about a small window in the boot up sequence that is about ½ second long. If the TFTP command times out, repeat steps 8 -10 waiting just a little bit longer or shorter to hit enter.
Once you hit the window with TFTP command, the node will upload the new firmware and reboot. It should come back up with the factory firmware on it."
I have done this to both restore the factory firmware and to reflash the mesh firmware for a forgotten password or buggered configuration issue.
YMMV Good luck. |

Topic :
Node does not accept username and password
I'm trying to set up a mesh node. I have a Linksys WRT54G v 3.1 router. Following the online directions, I flashed it with the file 'bbhn-3.1.0-wrt54g-2.4-squashfs.bin'. Everything seemed to work as advertised. When the router came up as a mesh node, I did the initial configuration with a username of WA7SKG-100 and a password that contained a number and an "@" sign. It accepted that and rebooted as the instructions said it would. However, after the reboot and it identifying itself as WA7SKG-100, when I try to go into setup, a popup window asks for the username and password. When I enter it, the box just blanks and asks again for U/P. At first, I thought maybe I forgot what password I set (I did break for dinner). I finally reflashed with tftp and started over. This time I wrote down the password. Same problem. Reflashed again and reconfigured, this time using an alpha only password. Same problem. I cannot get in for any further configuration after setting a username and password. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? I need to get this going for Field Day.

Ubiquity "error saving Setup"
Seems that if you follow the following instructions you can unbrick the unit back to the Ubiquiti firmware..
https://community.ubnt.com/t5/airOS-SDK-Custom-Development/AirMAX-Device-Firmware-Recovery-Procedure/m-p/1499583#M2499
you will need to open the unit and use a ttl to usb adapter |

ubiquiti restore EdgeMax OS
I have a need to completely restore from HSMM meshnode. I can connect, but of course, when I try to re-flash the .bin file I get an error. I was able to SSH to the antenna, but I dont know what commands to run, or how to upload the bin file via SSH. I can't seem to TFTP either.

TENNESSEE EASTERN TENNESSEE MICROWAVE SOCIETY
Hello everybody, I live in Greeneville, Tn and just flashed a wrt54g v4. I have a TP Link 24dbi antenna and a biquad at the focal point of a 3' dish that is a strong performer. If that isn't enough, I have a 10w 13cm shireen model 24601 amplifier.
I also have 4 Deep cycle batteries, 2 100 watt solar panels and a charge controller. I live in the mountains and have access to a tall peak and would like to set up a node but I'm not sure if there is anyone close enough. I did see that there is a node in Knoxville, and another in Johnson City. I am about halfway between the two. (about 5 miles north of exit 30 on i81 on 70)
Is it feasible that i could link between the two? Thanks for any suggestions or info. 73 KN4AYP

Case Closed. After reinstalling RasPBX after asterisk had a meltdown for unknown reasons and reloading all my files back in the TFTPBOOT dir, then adding all the extensions back... It ALL WORKS.. I can call to and from all three phones (each on a separate node).. I still don't know what I did wrong with the first setup..But it's working now.. and I'm happy. Thanks to all that offered suggestions and help along the way... And just a side note...if anyone gets any Polycom IP450 phones, and needs help getting them to work.. I can help... |

Polycom IP450??
With some help from the Facebook group I found a setting I switched per Polycoms instructions. Set that back to the default and can now call from phone to phone (7940-IP450) on the same node. But calling a phone on a remote node is still not working. |

Can you post some screen shots to the group of the settings within Asterisk - the extension and user screens, and the phone gui, the Line and SIP screens - (assuming the Polycom Screens are similar across models)
I fought with one today that finally registered for me after resetting the phone to factory defaults and removing the assigned extension and user in Asterisk then rebuilding. |

OK. Got the phones to register with FREEPBX/ASTERISK. Even got them to update to the latest firmware from Polycom (whew)...
Now the only issue I have, Busy signals.. I can pick up any line, dial another line, and get a busy signal. Doesn't matter if I'm dialing one of the IP450s from the 7940, or visa versa...
FreePBX shows all three lines registered.. and ready for use... What have I missed?? My brain is mush, I've got about 20 hours all told getting 2 phones to work.. and have one more IP450 to go.... |

I got a heck of a deal on some Polycom IP450 phones.. Followed the directions located in another thread for a different Polycom model and think I have gotten close..
Has anyone gotten these to work? I have them loading sip.ld from my asterisk server, but keep getting "Line not Provisioned" alerts on the phone..
Any help accepted and appreciated..
