Build for TP-Link TL-WR841N(D) [all versions]

@amq

Hi, I think that this could be interesting add to your builds: How to read TP-Link factory wireless pin from flash - art

It set factory SSID and KEY, the ones from bottom-label.

hi all,

Im new and kinda also new in flashing custom firmware. I understand the basic but would like to try the new lede project. Wonder will this custom build able to use it as a repeater? I am using dd-wrt and factory firmware but it seems the wifi will not last over 3-7days before it crashes. It works fine after reboot, so I would like to try lede to see if I can make my 841 a bit more reliable.
I have a 841 V9, any advice on flashing or patching would be greatful.

Would it be possible to include dnssec at least through dnsmasq-full? Unbound wouldn't work because of lack of space I think.
Thanks.

hello,
I tried to compile the bin file for the model wr841n V12 by following this tutorial : https://www.radiusdesk.com/docuwiki/user_guide/md_on_lede#adding_the_meshdesk_package
but without result !!!! all bin files are created except for that of the model wr841n !!!! Why !!!??? Can anybody help me please.
Think's

If images are not created during compilation, the reason is oftentimes that too many packages have been selected and the resulting image is too big to fit into the flash of your device. Since TL-WR841N v12 has only 4MB flash, this happens quite easily.

Start with a standard configuration, i.e. no additional packages selected at all. After compilation, images should be present.

After this, you can start to add packages, one by one (!!!), followed by a new compile step after each newly selected package. After each successful compilation, check if the images have been created.

think you tmomas i will try now .

Howdy, Would you mind uploading the version with adblock again? the dropbox gives a 404 :frowning:

Good afternoon. I wanted to ask you a question about a new lede for a tp link 841 v 8. You get to compile the firmware for the tp link yourself, and you do not accidentally have a fresh firmware for tp link 841 v8 ??? If there is a skinte, please I'll be very grateful.

Hello. Wanted to ask You about firmware for TL-WR841N-v8. Do you happen to have fresh firmware 17.01.4 that such functions if is throw off please the reference where I could download. I would be very much grateful, and sorry for my English. Sharing a custom build I've created for my own use:

  • LEDE Reboot
  • LuCI with https
  • IPv6 and PPPoE
  • MiniUPnP
  • OpenVPN with mbed TLS
  • QoS
  • DDNS
  • Wget with https
  • Reghack (WiFi channels 12 and 13)
  • LuCI''s Minified CSS and JS
  • Compiled with GCC 6.3
  • Removed kernel debugging
  • Nothing else has been touched. Basically, it is a 'make defconfig' + profile + the mentioned above
  • Free ROM: 76 KB
  • OpenVPN AES-128-CBC speed: 12Mbs/12Mbs (measured on v8 downloading ubuntu via a torrent)

I've built images for TL-WR841N v8 from 17.01.4 sources. Configuration is almost the same but compiled with GCC 5 (GCC 6 build process went to error in my case). Upgrade from OpenWrt 15 to this firmware tested successfully on my router.

@servent any chance you could do a build for v7?

8 posts were split to a new topic: 17.01.4 build for TL-WR841N(D)

is there a version with wireguard and ddns support?

Is there a version for WR740N v4 including reghack and 30db power hack? (I know its not real 30db and I won't put 30 anyway, I want max 23db).
Though reading in the topic I see the max with these builds are 20db, which is better than 16db (set to 18db max but shows 16db) I have right now.
