A physical test would be nice, to be sure that it actually works. Maybe someone could do a little youtube video of this? GLi marketing department perhaps? (hint hint, nudge nudge)
i´ve bricked my device by using this method! totally bricked .
u-boot doesnt respond and leds are not blinking …i´ve totally broke my device
i´ve pulled down gpio16 to ground and inserted a fat32 usb flashdrive with a file called “latest.bin” … first the leds come on fine and after a few minutes i´ve rebooted my device and now… i dont have a gl-150 anymore
alzhao is there a way to claim warranty or could u support me in any way? i know i´ve made the mistake but could we arrange some solution ? i´m not good at soldering and i doesnt have a flash programmer
Using GPIO16 and USB disk to debrick the device is not tested by us. We suggest not to do it.
I will test using Domino Pi board to see if this works.
To flash the firmware, just do it from our stock firmware or using uboot web UI. Overview - GL.iNet Docs
@rene, where are you located? Seems the only way is to solder down the flash and debrick. Let me check if there is anything we can do. If possible, you can mail the defective one back and we send you a new one.
I’m happy to hear that it was a power issue and that the device works again.
I’m going to order a few more AR150’s to test with. I will make a note that this procedure is not yet working and under review.
Seems need to pull up/down another GPIO to trigger the USB mode. I tried on Domino Pi before but cannot make it work. It can trigger the USB mode, but because it is undocumented, I cannot figure out how to go ahead. Now time goes on and I didn’t have time to try again.
