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.

    You need to set up your PC to be on that IP address first, TFTP doesn’t magically listen to a particular IP, you need to configure the PC with that IP.

    ip link set eth0 up
ip addr add 10.10.10.3/24 dev eth0
ip addr add 10.10.10.1/24 dev eth0

    Then you can start the TFTP server on the interface:

    dnsmasq -d --port=0 --enable-tftp --tftp-root=/path/to/tftp/root -i eth0
