I have one of these routers I attempted to upload firmware from the gui and now I cannot access it and no wifi networks show up.
I can access the serial console and attempted to run a TFTP server from my pc in order to re-flash but it just times out when I try to load the firmware from the server.
I have the IP of the server set to 0.0.0.0:69 when I try to set it to 10.10.10.3 (per the wiki) The server on my pc won’t start and gives an error. I know it’s probably a network setting that won’t let me set the correct ip address, just not sure where to go from here. Any help is appreciated.

    The service is tftpd-hpa on Ubuntu. I did get 10.10.10.3 to work by putting :69 at the end 0.0.0.0 accepts all ip addresses attempting to connect to the server, not secure, but fine for a one off like this. I still can’t get the thing to connect to the server, but I did something at least.

      Oh, wait, yeah, you’re right, and in fact a number of packages do take that when binding to an address. Sorry, that’s on me.
