Topic: selling 1 linksys e4200 v2 router <BRICK> (Read 929 times)
no problem i have all the tools to do that type of stuff. I just never bought any NAND programmer interfaces because i never had a need
another option would be to find some one that can flash a NAND with the firmware of that router and send you the chip in the mail. then i can lift the bad chip and reinstall the new chip.
hmm i'll keep that in mind.. and if anyone actually reads this and can do such a thing please PM
your my hero winter

no that will not work.
what i would have to do is remove the NAND chip from the router then inplant it to a device like this : http://www.ebay.com/itm/MCUmall-Canada-GQ-Brand-PRG-120-GQ-5X-NAND-Flash-High-Speed-Programmer-TSOP48-/121632222595
they do have option devices i was just showing the type of device it is.
the $5 ones are just JTAG programmers that u need to connect to a JTAG and u need JTAG commands to talk to the chipset. due to the chipset not having that jtag you cant just connnect that device.

yea thats more than i paid for the router.. i'd have no use for it after u use it.. i could subsidize one if you decide to get it, but i doubt thats the case
anyways thank you very much for the insight.. i'll go do some stuff with my brand new brick.. maybe smash some things

theres a bunch listed for under $10 but i dont know if they are the right one

edit: nevermind i think only xbox ones are cheap.. last i checked we're dealing with a brick but idk
u have a link for this $5 device
i could also remove the chipset and replace the chipset. But i do not have a flasher for the chipset to put firmware on it
i dont have a nand reader/writer

apparently their $5? if i grab one could i possibly meet you and fix this?
i would reward your efforts of course

depends on how bricked the router is.
have you tried to do any of the tricks to get it to reply to pings.
If you can get the unit to talk to a pc via ping then u might have a option to save it

no.. it refuses to be pinged
but then again my pc is all nutso with its network configurations, so it might just be my end thats the issue
I myself had a 4200 v2 and i bricked it but was able to get it to ping i then fixed it but after messing with even more i bricked it 100%
SAME
first was a new hope
now we're on episode 2.. the return of the brick

i see... im not the most literate person when it comes to this stuff, but is ssh or telnet a viable option?
because the chipset is a Marvell
they seem to have no jtag for it.
If they did have jtag i could USBJTAGNT it and reflash the firmware for you but that is not a option

so its seriously bricked?
im not familiar with jtaged

i'm pretty sure the v2 cant be jtaged. if it could then i can fix it for you in NYC
i bricked this router and i cant unbrick it.. its just waiting to be used in construction of your new house or patio or whatever. or you can unbrick it and enjoy some wifi.. the choice is yours!
shipping from nyc.. asking for 0.06btc w/ domestic us shipping
pics on request
i can also offer 0.06 btc for someone to fix it .. i can provide shipping both ways
