hi,
i have recently bought a TP-LINK TL-WR941ND and i installed the openwrt firmware. i wasnt familiar with the interface and i think that i turned all the LAN ports to WAN, or something like that.Now i cannot acces the router.i would  appreciate if anyone can help me.

Power up your router. When the 'SYS' light starts to blink, press and hold the 'QSS' button in the front-right until the blinking gets faster- this command is ok but i cannot telnet to the router.i am not sure if i have set right the static ip. i used this settings:
ip address:192.168.1.200
Default Gateway:192.168.1.10

Do i have to set somethinh for dns or just leave it blank??

yes,
ip:192.168.1.10
subnet:255.255.255.0
and im trying to telnet to 192.168.1.1 using putty

When the 'SYS' light starts to blink, press and hold the 'QSS' button in the front-right until the blinking gets faster"
only then connect the lan cable and try to telnet

Nothing happens...I cant telnetn into the router...the 192.168.1.1 is standard???if i changed it from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.2 for example, do i have to use the new one??

ok thnx for your time smile
