    Root user?

    This quick-and-dirty fix should also work: nvram set http_username=root reboot

    No USB3 hub on RT-AC56U

    And what would it take to implement the functionality?

    [RT-AC56U USB] Permissions set to 0777 after reboot

    Wow, finally solved it. Basically, when I was installing optware through downloadmaster, the installer was executing some scripts in /usr/sbin/app_* that were calling some nasty chmod 0777 $PATH_TO_MY_OPT. Had to change those scripts and eliminate all chmod calls. To me, it seems a really...

    [RT-AC56U USB] Permissions set to 0777 after reboot

    Ok, this issue is driving me crazy, no idea what's wrong. So my setup is: - "SanDisk Cruzer Switch" 8GB flash drive, tried formatting it as both ext3 and ext2 - RT-AC56U, firmware 376.49_5. Tried plugging it in both USB2 and USB3 port. - I also have a script in /jffs/configs/fstab that...

    [RT-AC56U USB] Permissions set to 0777 after reboot

    Ok, thanks for the prompt answer. What about the 0777 permissions, has anyone encountered the problem?

    [RT-AC56U USB] Permissions set to 0777 after reboot

    Hi, I have an USB stick (formatted as ext2) connected to the wireless router, on which I just installed optware. Can anybody please explain to me why do all permissions reset to 0777 after rebooting the router? Also, two other related questions: 1. Apart from the RT-N66U, is there any other...

    Yes, /opt/etc/ipkg.conf.

    Bricked router?

    Thanks. After repeatedly holding the reset and WPS button pressed, it did boot eventually.

    Bricked router?

    Ok, how else can I diagnose what's wrong? I disabled telnet login, as it was unencrypted.

    Bricked router?

    Well, the actual question is: What scripts are executed by the OS before /jffs/configs/services-start? Which of these scripts source any other script mounted in /opt? I only know of /etc/profile that sources /opt/etc/profile if it exists. What I have to do is create /opt/etc/profile (or...

    Bricked router?

    Hi, As I was playing with my RT-AC56U, I was following this tutorial: http://forums.smallnetbuilder.com/showthread.php?t=15528 to run some stuff in Debian chroot at startup. Unfortunately, at reboot, it seems that my router executes /jffs/scripts/services-start, but never gets out of it. If...

    Exclude the following drives from spinning down, sda to sdi, which is which?

    I think "exclude from spinning down" is pretty self-explanatory: only tick the hard drives that you DON'T want to stop spinning. If you don't want both to stop spinning, then issue the following command while logged in through telnet/ssh on the router: blkid This should give you a list of...

    Multiple users for Asuswrt?

    Also, I think I have tracked down the reason I can't use sudo. I couldn't find an Optware package that included it, so I foolishly added an Optware repository called "syno-x07" in my ipkg.conf file, just because it had a package for sudo. Long story short, I did install sudo on my router, but it...

    Multiple users for Asuswrt?

    I have successfully chrooted to Debian, but I still have to link those user accounts to what the firmware (including vsftpd and the web interface) needs and sees, which ultimately boils down to linking the users to the NVRAM variables somehow. Because at the moment, my problem with user...
