I have a MR3020 router that I want to tap as many GPIO's as I can and pass them outside of the router to be used for other things. My question is would I need to remove the led from the board before I can use the GPIO?
For example on the MR3020 the WLAN Led (Led 4) is on GPIO 0 connected thru Resistor R85. Could I leave the resistor/led alone and just tap off the GPIO location and read if the led is on or off from the outside world? ... or could I apply voltage from the outside world to the GPIO location (lighting the led) and also reading it's status from the router?
