Hi

I have ASUS 520GU router.

Which OpenWRT firmware ( backfire or kamikaze ) should I install on it as I could not find the firmware for this model from  http://downloads.openwrt.org



Thanks

openwrt-brcm47xx-squashfs.trx for AA 12.09 would probably be best.  I wouldn't use the older backfire or kamikaze versions.

Hi

Pls provide download link

Go to http://downloads.openwrt.org/

Choose Attitude Adjustment

Choose 12.09

Choose brcm47xx

Choose generic

Choose openwrt-brcm47xx-squashfs.trx

That's how you navigate the openWrt downloads tree to find the file you want for the release and architecture you need.

Hi


How can I upload .trx (openwrt-brcm47xx-squashfs.trx )  firmware to ASUS 520GU router.

Should I rename .trx to .bin

Thanks

@maurer--Can you provide a more specific link for problems with AA & 16 MB ram devices.  The link given has links to about 80 issues, and at a glance, they don't obviously apply.

I think it may depend on what you want to do.  Based on limited testing, trunk and 8mb ralink devices work ok for usb/serial control of microprocessors--with wifi on.

The discussion might have continued from here.
