Hi Chris,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for sharing!</div><div><br></div><div>I can confirm OpenWRT Kamikaze works fine on Fonera 2100 and other ath5k units from using ROBIN mesh firmware (which is still based on Kamikaze).</div>
<div><br></div><div>I see you are telnetting in to 192.168.1.20, rather than the 192.168.1.1 that I was accustomed to for newly flashed OpenWRT backfire units. Is this is change that you applied yourself before compiling?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Also, would you be willing to share the kernel config you used to compile these images? It could possibly help diagnose problems encountered flashing ath5k units with Backfire 10.03.1+<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

I'm not active in developing for Commotion, but have built a couple images for Foneras with Commotion feeds included if folks want to try them. They are running OpenWRT Backfire 10.03 rc 5 or 6. <div><br>The compiled binary image and kernel can be downloaded here:

The Commotion setup script also doesn't set the hostname of the device completely, so there is some debugging that would be necessary for this platform.</div>

I did:<br>
<br>
sudo ./ap51-flash-1.0-42 eth1 openwrt-atheros-root.jffs2-64k \<br>
openwrt-atheros-vmlinux.lzma<br>
<br>
And it flashed successfully, but I can't find a way to connect to it<br>
now. I've tried over their ethernet 192.168.1.1, 192.168.0.1,<br>
169.254.1.1, 169.254.0.1. No luck. Also, it doesn't seem to showing<br>
any wifi networks, and the wifi light is off.<br>
<br>
Am I doing first contact right on this box?<br>
