Firmware 4.3.7 on the AR300m is missing the kmod-mtd-rw package

Then how do I update the uboot code without having a serial cable and taking apart the unit?

It looks like it was in the code at one time from this old post:

GL-AR300M Unable to flash NAND

@alzhao I have figured this on my own and I will share it here how as the support team might be too overloaded to think all the ways to approach this for every customer . So I got the art backup file , let’s call it " originalart.bin" and then I went in console thru UART and did the following : type “cat /proc/mtd/” to look for the partition name ( in my case mtd6 ) make a backup of it just in case ( though not much point for me but still) “dd if=/dev/mtd6 of=/tmp/art.backup” SCP in the rout…

Maybe I need to beg for Firmeware 2.20?
