tplink-safeloader
*****************
For creating 'safeloader' images for tp-link devices.
These can be flashed to the device using the firmware update feature
in the TP-link web UI or the OEM bootloader recovery: Use something
sharp to hold the 'reset' button while turning on the router until
only the orange LED remains lit. The router will assume IP address
192.168.0.1 and expect you to take 192.168.0.5 on one of the LAN ports.
On NixOS, use something like::
networking.interfaces.enp0s20f0u1c2 = {
ipv4.addresses = [ {
address = "192.168.0.5";
prefixLength = 24;
} ];
};
networking.networkmanager = {
unmanaged = [ "enp0s20f0u1c2" ];
};
This connection is rather somewhat temperamental, it may take a couple
of attempts, possibly re-attaching the USB dongle and running
``systemctl restart network-start.service``. The web interface does not
give accurate feedback (the progress bar is a lie), so you may want
to upload the firmware using ``curl -F firmware=@result http://192.168.0.1/f2.htm``.
After this shows a 'success' JSON, the image still needs to be
transferred from memory to flash, so be patient.
