I HIGHLY recommend you install Attitude Adjustment in favour of Barrier Breaker. You can get the firmware image from here: https://github.com/Chadster766/McWRT/re … 2-128k.img

What's wrong with newest firmware ?
Barrier Breaker is being skipped, work is being focused on Chaos Calmer, which is in early beta's.

On a different note, yesterday I've received the new unit from Linksys, I'm working now on dumping its bootloader and transfer it to the old bricked one.

I hope you find a solution to fix a corrupted or deleted boot loader. Good Luck
Thanks, Chad! I'm working on it and am determined to get it done. I managed to dump the first partition and the dump corresponds to what @mmilburn has posted earlier. The problem is that this dump contains multiple images in one file and here comes the tricky part of splitting them. I am also in contact with http://www.denx.de/ and will keep you updated once I get it working.

Does either the "official" SourceForge firmware (OpenWRT) or McWRT v.1.0.5 for WRT1900AC support using a 4G-dongle for WAN-failover?
Will be getting a Huawei E3272 (4G/3G) modem and wondering if it will work.

Is there an OpenWRT driver for the Huawei E3272 dongle. If not then no but if there is I can try compiling it into OpenWRT McWRT for you.

Thank you very much (for your offer and reply).
Sadly there does not seem to be any support ATM, at least that is how I understand this post.
I have emailed Huawei though and asked for a Linux driver for the E3272 and will try OpenWRT and your McWRT and see if the modem is supported and report back. If not and regardless I'll happily make the driver available.

Keep in mind we need the driver source code.

Ah sorry, so I take it the source code is what the linux driver is built on (and not the same thing as requesting the linux driver)?

Most times they do provide the driver source along with a binary just in case you need to custom build the driver for a different Linux OS.

Run "make menuconfig", then go into Utilities and unselect xdd. I guess the package is no longer available.
It finally compiled i guess xdd isnt on up anymore

I have the file in my /dl folder and will commit it tonight. The package xdd is critical for AA package management.
SUCCESS!!!!
Got my bricked router up to the u-boot command prompt! After lunch will start writing the tutorial.

How can I upload the two files needed for debricking on your repo?

The E3272 should be supported by the usual set of 3G/LTE drivers. I'd guess either "cdc_ether" or "huawei_cdc_ncm", in combination with the "option" driver for the serial functions. You should definitely not need any driver from Huawei.
Note that all modern Huawei modems have multiple identities, and that referring to "E3272" is pretty pointless. It can mean a number of different things depending on the actual firmware installed on the modem and the mode this firmware is running in. Post the output of "lsusb -v" or "cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices".

Awesome nitroshift! Your timing is perfect. Just recently another user emailed me that he deleted his boot loader.
I have given you Collaborator rights to the OpenWRT McWRT repo.
Also I created an FTP account so you can upload files to the ProTechs-Online webserver for the Wiki.
Skype me for FTP details.
Do the new enhancements with AAv1.0.7, improve overall functionality? Or is it just to address the Openvpn issues?

It should improve overall functionality and will become the new stable release if no major issues are reported.
