Hi I bricked my WR740NV2 by modified its uboot.
Then I found flash dump to bring it to life, but now my WiFi is not working

Can you help me how I can change ART partition to enable WiFi?

I found this error in syslog

please help where can I change MAC

Try offset 0х1FC00 at uboot for MAC adres.

And check your ART partition.

The discussion might have continued from here.
