1

Hi i am a new user and a noob don't know much about linux and programming, but advance user of windows and know lots about networking.

i have a router
KuWFi CPE outdoor


i have tried to load openwrt but it bricked i need to flash a firmware which i have already got that from there website but don't know how to do that in a manual way as like TFTP server

after researching everywhere i found some reference of


IP address for tftp is 192.168.0.141

as per procedure, i have tried through wan port
the flashing process, tftp server shows it ok and completed
but after rebooting it don't work. but the wifi and the blinking light is working
i am able to connect to wifi but stuck on obtaining ip address

there is a problem while flashing is i had to rename the firmware from (.ubin to bin)file
example upgrade.ubin to upgrade.bin i don't know what is the difference.
the stock firmware is upgrade.ubin but the device asking for only bin file

Is this step 7 of option 1 on the github? You are going to flash a release AP147 build. It is very important to confirm you transferred the file correctly (at the least do an ls /tmp and compare file size-- it would be even better to hash it with md5sum or sha256sum) before going to mtd flash it.
