Hey guys;
I bricked it by messing around with internal routing via OpenVPN server config. Now I can access its GUI nor ping it; on top of that, its reset button is disabled.
Is there any way to stop the start-up script from running at boot-up? I think "boot wait" is enabled.
Thanks. _________________ Michael

See the specific notes about your router in note 1 of the peacock announcement, and the general info on bricks in note 6. _________________ SIG:

Would the "30/30/30 hard reset" work even when the button is disabled?
that wasn't the part you needed to read...read the part about gs v1.1 _________________ SIG:

Just an observation...
I have been looking for some specific gpio..
If you disabled your reset button...
Use telnet.. It seems the reset button is either gpio 4 or gpio 7 on most (all that I have been able to test)
So.. using telnet:
gpio enable 4 [enter]
or...
gpio enable 7 [enter]
that'll push the reset button even if it is disabled. once you see the power light blinking.. let it blink for a few, then power cycle.. Back to defaults _________________ [Moderator Deleted]
