Topic: TP-Link WR703N (1.6 chinese version) problem with flashing

The content of this topic has been archived on 11 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

I've flashed the original chinese version to an english version, but something went wrong...

I can't access the router with browser and it doesn't appear on my wireless connections.

I can only enter the router with telnet.

This are somethings i can show you about the router:


telnet 192.168.1.1
Trying 192.168.1.1...
Connected to 192.168.1.1.
Escape character is '^]'.

=== IMPORTANT ============================
  Use 'passwd' to set your login password
  this will disable telnet and enable SSH

Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

Probably i screwed up installing a wrong version...

Someone can help me put the router running please!!

Thanks!

That is OK.
You need to read about openWRT.
It is normal behaviour to only have telnet after flashing.
You need to set a password with the passwd command, and telnet will be disabled and ssh enabled.
Because you flashed Barrier Breaker rather than Attitude Adjustment there is no Luci installed by default.
Read the WiKi

Thanks a lot, is the first time i use OpenWRT, so i was wondering if i did something wrong.

The discussion might have continued from here.
