Hi guys,
I'm trying to install OpenWrt 19.07.2 on my TP-Link TD-W8970v1 ADSL Router and need some help.
I am following the official guide here. I am following the web interface hack as I do not have access to a serial connection.
I have access to machines running Windows 10, Mac OS Mojave and Linux (Lubuntu 18.04).
Other useful information:
Reported TP-Link FW Builds this approach has been used successfully:
D-W8970 V1: 140613 (This is my router model and current firmware)
Found further instructions but not sure how to proceed with them.
I've read some posts that say "Rumours are that with the recent OpenWrt that you need to take care that the image you write to mtd2 needs to be extended with 0xff characters to the end of the partition" What does that mean?
Thanks guys! Let me know if there is any missing info.
