I'm new to all this and a bit hesitant to DIY'ing my own serial cable, but I'm also slowly giving up on TP Link support and engineers ability to help me make my device work for my SIP provider.\r\n\r\nI have to questions / suggestions...\r\n\r\n1) ~I gather that the header that needs to be stripped off when *restoring* original firmware via serial connection is the same header that holds a signature to verify firmware files when uploading and installing through the web interface? Has anyone tried copying and applying this header to an OpenWRT image?~ Nevermind, the question was stupid, I can read clearly from your description that this is exactly what the whole deal here is about :)\r\n\r\n2) Can TP Link supply a patched version of their firmware that DOES NOT verify the header of new firmware? This would allow us to release OpenWRT and install through the web interface, right?\r\n\r\nThanks :)\r\nBen"}}
