Hi Everyone... I have recently installed the open wrt on my Tp link MR3220 v1.2, well i can access to the router by SSH, but i cant connect to network, it can recognize usb devices, but i have not the usb modem switcher, and i cant find the way to install anything on it.. it dont have the web interface, the wifi dont starp up, i have listed the packages installed and this is what it shows..

RTFW!

Well ive installed the firmware for the MR3220 from this link

http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … actory.bin
Ive upload iy by the default web interface of the router... Now ive running the OPEN WRT, but i really dont now waht to do... I cant do anything with it.. I cant connect to the internet by the 3G Modem, cant use the wifi, the only way to handle it is via SSH, but a cant install any package because there is no way to do it.... I cant from wget because i cant connect to the internet, i cant from the USB because i cant mount the drive.... i just want to now how to make it work Properly------

Hi lordex,
i have installed openwrt bleeding edge r25661 on tplink mr3220(not sure if v1 or v1.2) few months ago and it works like a charm.
I use it as the AP and MJPEG streaming server(1280*800@5fps) with Logitech B905 usb webcam connected.

oh man thats sound awesome.... thats great.. but my problem right now is that im not able to comunicate with the router by any way.. so i cant upgrade the firmware, download by "wget" packages because it cant connect to network, and it has not web interface it just accesible by SSH.... Thats the situation.. but I really thank you.... I will try to make work..

lordex,
ok, you have less trouble than you can think....
As you have written......it just accesible by SSH........<- this means you HAVE a network connectivity. Even only in local network(LAN).

Please edit your /etc/config/network according to my configuration above, you just have to set following values:
config interface lan
        option ifname   eth0
        option type     bridge
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   192.168.1.16
        option netmask  255.255.255.0
        option gateway  192.168.1.1 #<----- gateway, the only way to connect to the other networks in the Internet
        option dns      192.168.1.1 #<----- DNS settings, needed for proper name resolution, used by wget, ipkg, etc.

As you can see, your wifi is not working because it is disabled, by default.
You have to edit /etc/config/wireless according to the example above and set the option disabled to 0, or delete that line.
# REMOVE THIS LINE TO ENABLE WIFI:
        option disabled 0

After the restart, check if the changes are persistent, and if so, everything should work(internet connectivity and wifi interface enabled).

Important notice> THERE IS NOT ANY GUI(web interface) DUE TO THE MEMORY RESTRICTIONS. So you have to work in the shell. But even from the shell you are able to upgrade firmware,etc. Just try to browse through wiki

Best regards,

Peter

bro Lordtrex.
I'm use TL-MR3220
solution is:
install winscp for edit file on router, or it can upload packet (file ipk) to router
http://ilmu-musafir.blogspot.com/2010/0 … inscp.html

1). upload file to router:
- set winscp host: 192.168.1.1 user: root pass: (yourpass), protocol: scp , login
- there are 2 windows. right is openwrt, left is PC
- download file below by your PC
http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … /packages/ , 
   1    blkid_1.41.12-1_ar71xx.ipk
   2    chat_2.4.4-17_ar71xx.ipk
   3    comgt_0.32-9_ar71xx.ipk
   4    kmod-usb-core_2.6.39.6-1_ar71xx.ipk
   5    kmod-usb-ohci_2.6.39.6-1_ar71xx.ipk
   6    kmod-usb-serial-option_2.6.39.6-1_ar71xx.ipk
   7    kmod-usb-serial-wwan_2.6.39.6-1_ar71xx.ipk
   8    kmod-usb-serial_2.6.39.6-1_ar71xx.ipk
   9    kmod-usb-uhci_2.6.39.6-1_ar71xx.ipk
  10    libblkid_1.41.12-1_ar71xx.ipk
  11    libuuid_1.41.12-1_ar71xx.ipk
  12  usb-modeswithch_1.1.7-1_ar71xx.ipk
  13  usb-modeswitch-data_20110227-1_ar71xx.ipk
- copy file above to "/tmp"

2). install packet above, you login with putty to router
  root@OpenWrt:~# cd /tmp
  root@OpenWrt:/tmp# opkg install *.ipk
  root@OpenWrt:/tmp# reboot

3) plug your usb modem, login again with putty, type "dmesg"
- root@OpenWrt:~# dmesg
find this:

option 1-1:1.3: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB2

ttyUSB2 is defend your USBmodem maybe ttyUSB1, ttyUSB3 or other..

so..... modif file  "/etc/config/network" using winscp like this:

config interface loopback
        option ifname   lo
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   127.0.0.1
        option netmask  255.0.0.0

config interface lan
        option ifname   eth0
        option type     bridge
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   192.168.1.1
        option netmask  255.255.255.0

config interface wan
        option ifname   ppp0
        option proto    3g
        option device   /dev/ttyUSB2 #defend your usb modem
        option apn      yourapn
        option service umts
        option username yourusername
        option password  yourpassword

4).  your modem still plug, and reboot.
5). check your internet with command "ifconfig"

if conect, you can install web interface with command

opkg update  
opkg install luci 
/etc/init.d/uhttpd enable 
/etc/init.d/uhttpd start

check in your browser http://192.168.1.1

good luck

hi,
I was tring to install usb pendrive on the same router but some how i am unable to do so. it gives some error when i try to install the packages mention in the wiki. has any one been sucessful or found an easy tutoruial to help me out.
Also i want to leant openwrt in detail so that i may contribute as well does any one know what and wher to find all the detail i might need.
Thanks in Advance!!!

after a bit of reading and configuring, i was indeed able to install some of the packages but it give an error saying that no free space. so wanted to know is there any way out like may be to boot the os out of the pen drive.

Thank you so much Mang.... I really apreciate your answer.... It will helpful for me... Now i love this router.... Because i can connect Usb drive to it, a webcam, and even a printer... thats is really wonderfull....
Well, its realy interesting, when the first time ive installed i found everything difficult because theres no many tutorial for extremely newbees.... MDR----
By now im using the Tl mr 3220 without WEB GUI... And i love to use the console....
Now im working on an application, but i did not yet compile it to ar71xx from source.. and I really get very confused....

Floydprime, theres a tutorial to make usb drive as rootfs, but Im afraid that dont work on Ar71xx platform, i dont know very well, but it seem like that the bootloader dont support or something like that... maybe im wrong... but that is a  problem for me too.... Space left is really lack of expected.. but theres no other by the moment...

overcome the shortcomings space
use the external root
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/extroot

I just picked up one of these routers the other day. I keep trying to get a usb drive to work with it but am having no luck. I cannot get it to show up in /dev at all and I don't know what I am doing wrong. I've installed all the required packages and typed in all the commands as described here http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/usb.storage and nothing I do works.

I've tried 3 different flash storage drives now, nothing shows up. Dmesg shows that the usb appears to be working, no errors.

Any help would be greatly appriciated!
