I flashed openwrt onto one of these dongles:
https://wiki.hackerspace.pl/projects:zs … ard-reader
and after the successful flash, it came up with the usual defaults and with the wireless SSID set to "OpenWRT," no encryption.
So I logged into the luci console, set a root password, and then reconfig'd the wireless to a different SSID with WPA2 encryption. After rebooting I see the new SSID, but cannot connect with the configured passphrase. Maybe I made a mistake in typing in the passphrase, but if not, I don't understand what is happening.
A reset won't be easy, I'll have to remove the plastic case to get at the pins, set up a serial connection, etc.
Any ideas for an alternate approach which is less drastic?
Fun gadget!
