    Rbr50v2 Conversion

    What do you hope to achieve you can’t do with the standard VLAN capabilities? The answer to go from V2 to V1 is “No”. They slightly differ in hardware. That’s why this thread exists.

    Rbr50v2 Conversion

    Cool you made the next step! I moved houses, had less spare time and most admit I lost interest a bit after I "solved" the initial problem. I dropped the ball, but very nice someone picked it up and ran with it. Kuddos to you!

    Rbr50v2 Conversion

    I'm now trying a different path. It seems the router firmware has all the elements on board of the satellite and that during boot is determined whether it should act as router or satellite. This idea is support by the existence of the document /tmp/orbi_type and the subsequent checking of its...

    Rbr50v2 Conversion

    I've experimented and bricked the v2 multiple times and had to restore it via the JTAG. Unfortunately no luck. Feels like https://xkcd.com/979/
