Amazing, I am able to scp to the /tmp/ folder, for some probably logical
reason I wasn't allowed to scp to the / or sshfs the / to my laptop.
I've tried running the sysupgrade with the latest LEDE you pointed me to
Aaron, but I get a response of `invalid image type` then \n `Image check
'platform_check_image' failed`
I reamed the long filename to firmware.bin because I thought that maybe
the error was similar to this thing marked in
https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr1043nd#installation but it's
still causing trouble.
Aaron, were you able to sysupgrade that .bin directly?
Thanks a million,
C

Thank you both Aaron, Frank, I will try to put LEDE instead. Do you know if
this release includes luci? I'm keen to learn more about network
configuration, but an interface would help me to see what kind of
possibilities are available.
Meanwhile, my router has a snapshot of OpenWrt from
https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/ar71xx/generic/ but I'm unable
to establish an internet connection, so no opkg or anything. I want to
transfer the the LEDE .bin as it looks more advanced, but I can't sshfs for
some reason. Any ideas as to how to get the new .bin file on to it? I can
flash an imagefrom within openWRT if I recall properly? In failsafemode?
Correction, there was a new release to fix the Krack wifi bug. It is
at:
https://downloads.lede-project.org/releases/17.01.4/targets/ar71xx/generic/lede-17.01.4-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr1043nd-v4-squashfs-factory.bin
I am not sure what you mean by sshfs. From Windows, I usually use
WinSCP to copy the .bin file to /tmp/, then run sysupgrade (ie:
sysupgrade /tmp/lede-17.01.4-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr1043nd-v4-squashfs-factory.bin
)
The release version linked above includes Luci, the nightly snapshots do not.
There are some directions on recovering from a bad flash at:
