I have run into what seems to be a re-occurrence of the WAN bug on a TPLink TL-WR1043ND v2.1 with the stock firmware labled wr1043v2_en_3_17_38 (140613). The WAN port works fine with the stock firmware, but is seen as down when I flash over the OpenWRT firmware. I have tried BBrc3, BBrc2 and trunk (r42429 from 7 Sep 2014). My initial flash was from the stock firmware to the "Factory" BBrc3 image. I then switched to the Sysupgrade rc3 image. I also tried both the "Factory" and the "Sysupgrade" images from rc3 and trunk. I have tried flashing with both "sysupgrade /tmp/tplink.bin" and "mtd -r write tplink.bin firmware" (after dropping the firmware into the /tmp folder with WinSCP).
I also tried flashing back to stock after using dd to remove the "boot" portion of the image (dd if=orig.bin of=tplink.bin skip=257 bs=512). When I did that, the WAN port started working again. Any suggestions on where to go from here? I can make what I need to do (setting up a trunk with a couple of vlans) work by splitting off a LAN port from the switch but it would be nice to use the WAN port for my "Uplink" and have 4 "LAN" ports available to plug in other devices. Any suggestions? Thanks Aaron Z
