VaKo Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Sounds like you fubar'd the chip by shorting the wrong pins. Have a look in the openWRT, DD-WRT and Hyper-WRT forums for dedrinking guides, but I'd hit ebay and get another one. Probally won't do jack, but try just leaving it off for a day or so, sometimes the voodoo gods smile on dead hardware... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spektormax Posted June 18, 2006 Author Share Posted June 18, 2006 yeh, I was runngin alchmey on it, all those debrickers, involve a seral iinterface to router, and I dont feel like solderign and dont have any cabbles to do ti tiwth. I May have fried teh nvram, and I guess the kernel defaults to just runn alll packets as a bridge. Donno, I might just get a new one, ill probly have to ntohing esle I cn do.

If it's bricked and not covered by any store guarantee or anything then you don't have much to lose so you might aswell try soldering on a serial cable, can't brick it too much more... :P Or find a bored techie and insist he debricks it for you.

stingwray Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Why on earth would you want to overclock a router like that? I'm sure it is performing just right for what its supposed to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 I would like my router to have a faster CPU. I have a AG241 (as far as I can see not paticulaly hackable), however, if there is alot of traffic (say I have bittorrent open) it can take quite along time to proccess each setup page. This is presumably becasue the router has to run each packet though it's CPU and relable them with the correct IP address, port and MAC address.

stingwray Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 I doubt it is the routers CPU that is being overloaded unless you are on some very high speed internet connection, over 50Mbps. You probably need to look into QoS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Yeah... just QOS all ports below 1024 to highest priority and lower the bt ports, also keep your connections limited to around 300 globally in the BT client, 150per torrent and only torrent one file at once. Otherwise the bt traffic just swamps your router. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you going to get something out of it, even knowledge or experiance is very good. But if your not getting anything out of it then you are wasting your time.
