Hi, I was running into an odd problem and was wondering if anyone had seen this before.
I was returning an R7800 from kong back to stock (which i've done on at least 2 other R7800 units without issues).
For some reason on this one, the wireless will not transmit once back to stock (no visible or hidden ssid).
i flashed over to brainslayers build and the wireless works there too.
i tried erasing manually in ssh
erase linux
reboot
then in tftp i put the netgear firmware back on
that way didn't work either.... so i wasn;t sure what to try next
(on the other 2 that reverted back to stock fine, the web gui with kong dd-wrt-to-netgear worked fine).
wireless starts working again if i reflash dd-wrt... but every time i take it back to stock it stops functioning (everything else seems normal).
thanks for any help.
Hi. I've been testing Kong's DD-WRT in my R7800 and when I turn back to stock firmware I have encountered the same problem.
I think that some var in nvram is corrupt, but I don`t know what.
If I find the solution, I put here.
Bye.
That's the trick:
After returning from DD-WRT to stock firmware:
1) enable telnet: http://191.168.1.1/debug.htm
2) format overlay partition: mtd erase overlay_volume
3) hard reset

Thanks to lobyte!!!
Enable telnet: http://192.168.1.1/debug.htm
Nowadays, such situations occur, you have to get used to it.
