Today, I am getting my second TP-Link MR3020 Router (obviously, I bricked the first one
).
To prevent bricking the device again, what are the steps that have to be taken?
1. Connect router to PC and connect with IP 192.168.0.254
2. Flash router with openwrt+ cgminer from technobit website( 0.1.5 release)
3. connect tp-link router to my homenetwork router( IP range is 192.168.0.0 - 255)
4. Connect to tp-link via 192.168.0.99 and set a userpassword. Save and Apply.
5. Set all parameters in cgminer window which are necessary. Save and Apply
6. Connect Hex16a2 boards with powerd usb hub to tp-link and start cgminer.
Is this right?
The reason I am asking is, because I can not really explain why my last router bricked, that's the reason for the dumb question
Thanks in advance!
1. It's the best to set you PC ip to static ip like 192.168.0.50
2. open web browser & type 192.168.0.254
3. flash the router with new 0.1.5 factory image
4. wait until the router restart( LED off & on again)
5. do not move your router yet
6. open web browser & type 192.168.0.99
7. Set password, time
8. setting the ip as you desire
9. Set cgminer
I see that your point number 3 is dangerous. You don't need to do that yet.On your point number 6, cgminer is auto start. So if all cgminer & network setting ok then cgminer will start even if there is no miner connected.
