Error /dev/mmcblk0 Does not matter what and how I will do. But. OpenWRT is working. You messed on production with class like never before. Any solution how to fix it. Fix not send anywhere. Because this post is to find solutions for people which bought device for VPN purpose. They can not just buy ticked and fly few 1000 km to fix device after GL-Inet push miracle update.

Thanks for the update, shame that it errors out. It's infeasible for me to do the UART at this time anyway, i don't even have the screwdriver to pop the case off. Raspi 4 is giving me better speeds. I hope GL.inet is more careful with their updates in the future. When things work, it's a good product. ---

This is the topic i was looking for. I have two pieces, one that is still older version and working (v4.2.3). The other one is my vpn that i use on occasion, that has suddenly failed and was in 4.6.2. I'm willing to ship this one piece wherever so you can examine it? Unless there is an easy unbrick solution by now, because i'm not familiar with UART. The snapshot on openwrt will not help me either without luci. I tried downgrading to 4.2.3 as well but that didn't help... ---
