I exchanged my device and so now I own the
TP-Link WDR4300
dualband router.
Again I compiled the firmware with luci already included and some other handsome linux commandline tools and packages. USB2, blockmount and ext3 + ext4 driver, etc. included.
The firmware is fast and stable.
You can download OpenWRT firmware TP-Link TL-WDR4300 v1 Barrier Breaker r37325 / LuCI Trunk (svn-r9868) with packages directly from google drive.
WDR4300.zip sha1sum: fb80a8bcbade4a7e0f32e3f477dee2fd3c0e73c7
If you need the firmware for any other device you can also download the prepared
virtualbox OpenWRT-compiler on my blog and make your own firmware fitting your needs.
Please watch out using the correct firmware.
Using the wrong firmware will potentially cause a brick!
Included is:
openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wdr3500-v1-squashfs-factory.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wdr3500-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

Hello for someone like me who is pretty much a noob in this sort of thing can i just download the image " TP-Link TL-WDR4300 v1 Barrier Breaker r37325 " and just upgrade my firmware from the factory GUI, and have all the options or will i have to do telnet stuff, ssh and all those things that look like greek to me? All i want to do is improve the wifi signal its bad even with tplink's latest firmware. Thanks
ReplyDeleteHello, yes you can use the factory image named "openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wdr4300-v1-squashfs-factory.bin" for the WDR4300 to flash via factory-webinterface.
ReplyDeleteAfter the flash you need to telnet into the device. Before set your
IP to 192.168.1.2,
gateway to 192.168.1.1,
subnet to 255.255.255.0
and at the prompt set you password twice.
After a reboot you can reach the webinterface (LuCi).
