How can I enter U-boot on the B1300? No clear instructions in the documentation
How do I open the router’s case (as I probably need to access serial to flash latest LEDE build?) Any pictures there? the top part seems to be attached using screws but can’t directly see how to access them
Is the mesh that is builtin done using 802.11s? This option is not available in Luci by default, although it should be supported by ath10k with a specific firmware combination
Also I wanted to setup the router in STA+AP configuration (using STA as WAN interface), but this does not work. For some reason the wifi interface keeps displaying an invalid mac address, and it doesn’t fetch any IP either, although it does seem to be associated with the AP. Any ideas if this is supported by the stock firmware? I want to upgrade to latest ath10k to make sure this is not a driver problem
Is it the latest firmware on the gl.inet site? I installed the ‘clean’ version I found there and still seeing these issue. So in this case I need to try the modified one?
Yes would be nice if I could test the new firmware. Is it based on LEDE? What is the status of the latest LEDE trunk ? Does it work well on the modem or are there features missing?
I tried to flash the latest ‘clean’ build from your site, but in fact I can’t flash from the web interface (it says I’m trying to flash an invalid image). Instead I was trying to use sysupgrade -F but still the upgrade doesnt work (seeing it’s still running a kernel built in decemeber 2017.
What is the procedure exactly here?
Is this build containing any patches that are not in upstream LEDE yet? How is this process managed exactly? You first test some mods and then make PR for the LEDE project?
I managed to flash to latest openwrt build, this solves the issue with STA+AP already. Will try to test whether it supports 802.11s properly but I guess it will.
Thanks for the reply!
And I searched and consulted this doc Advanced Uboot - GL.iNet Docs
However this doc demonstrates how to update GL-AR150/GL.iNet6416/GL-AR300/GL-AR300M via uboot, not B1300.
I would like to know the uboot commands to flash B1300 firmware, not other models…
Maybe I am reading a wrong doc? Could you paste your doc URL please? thanks
