I’m having some issues with shadowsocks with GL-inet’s firmware so I wanted to try installing the stock OpenWRT distribution. I flashed the router with the following file, as per the OpenWRT wiki: http://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.4/targets/ar71xx/generic/openwrt-18.06.4-ar71xx-generic-gl-ar750-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
After waiting a few minutes, I try to connect to the router via ethernet cable but I cannot access either SSH or web interface. I tried multiple IPs including 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.8.1. I can however ping the router.
In the end, I had to follow the Debrick via Uboot instructions to revert back to the Gl-inet firmware.
Did anyone else try this? Did you manage to make it work?
