Hello,

I have a WR703n and I'm using one of Maddox's awesome images, I'm not sure which (was from a long while back).

I only need to use it as a wifi AP, so a simple config.
However when I reboot it, it revert back to default Openwrt settings.

Should I need to do anything more than save and apply via Luci?

Thanks

Matt

Matt, one of those older images was a bit too right in terms of space and doesn't properly load a writable partition.

Try using a new image!

Tim.

What Tim said :)

If you click System/Software and see you have a lot of free space then you know it was a crappy image that I recalled very quickly :) Use another one from my page now :)

Thank you gentlemen, I have switched to a more recent image.  All fixed.

One a side note, does anyone have a spare one of these routers that they can sell to me on Saturday?

And how much for it? ($10-20)?

Depending on what time you will be there, I might be able to drop by and give you one for $20? Do you need case and charger or happy with base unit? What about a preflashed unit?
