I have the same device. I put firmware on it and started to use OpenWrt. It was very nice first round, However later I wanted to put another firmware which I understood updated snapshot (openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-tplink_re305-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade) and device didn't like i.t It started continuously rebooting when I put in plug, there is no connection on http or telnet etc.
So I feel I messed up firmware/flash room things..
Now, want to fix it, I have a Raspberry Pi 2 and v 3 and some little cables.... Also windows machine and if necessary I can buy usb 2032 things too..
thank you for your answer. I'm not able to connect to device with http telnet ssh etc. after second firmware update, device crashed & restarting continuously... I'm looking raspi serial connection and reinstall first firmware again. However I really don't know which part https://forum.openwrt.org/uploads/default/original/3X/5/c/5c12b2e154ee0cf7e352376c1e43f5af9fab3b93.jpeg I need to connect as a TX, RX, Ground... do you have any suggession?
Hello. Has anyone found a solution about re305v1. I bricked mine and dont know how to unbrick it. Found out that tftp server is not supported on this device..so the only way is to instal the firmware by serial??
Hello there again.
I have this repeater and bricked maybe bios chip
If I will buy flash programmer to fix it;
I don't have knowledge from this...
DM to help me please.
Do not replace the radio calibration data on the flash as that is device specific. Back it up and integrate it into the flash dump if you're overwriting the flash completely.
I've flashed petitess's flash file to my RE305 and it's working again, but I can't connect to either Wi-Fi or SSH over ethernet. What config did you set up for it? Tried digging around in the bin file to no avail.
