Info update: WL-700gE

[Kamilion]

Hi,
I just bought a WL-700gE recently. Due to a bug in the original firmware, I was able to telnet into the router. I could login as root and was even able to install asterisk on it. I eventually want to install openwrt on this device, but I don't think I know enough to do it. As far as I can tell, the firmware contains 3 sections, kernel, mini root, real root. kernel and mini root will be written to flash (2MB) real root system will be written to the HD. It looks very like what is described here http://www.openmss.org/Hardware/MssExtractFirmware (as they have the same CPU and design).
My question is what should I go next in order to run openwrt or oleg's firmware on this device? I can post more information from the router if that will help.

Thanks a lot !

Does anyone know what this telnet bug might be? I don't mind running old firmware if it gets me a look inside the box, and access to the root filesystem on the drive; I can shove a shellscript in there somewhere to run dropbear...

Can you try to make a download with the Download Master software of a file lager 2 GB with FTP and BT.
If itry this the Download Master software tell´s allways a filesize of 2.0 GB but the file is lager. I use the firmware 1.0.4.1.
Please tell me your results.

I wait of a answer from Asus support about this problem.

What is with your disk ? Did it spindown or is it allways on ?

I've got the same firmware from the start.

Well at the moment every BT download seems to fail, resulting in files (which funny names) in the Incomplete directory which I'm not able to delete. Until I find a way to delete these files I am not gonna test BT anymore if you don't mind

I be able to delete the files.
The disk of the wl-700ge is maped as a NFS to windows.

Can you test FTP about the filesize problem for me ?
