Make sure you do not unload it in any startup script!
Otherwise trywengiCode:insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20/usb-storage.o
When I disable FTP usb-storage will dissapear after a restart
I will try an older firmware tomorrow!
Now using 1.9.2.7-7g
Why not using the newest firmware?
wengi
I am now using 1.9.2.7-7f with FTP enabled and it works again.
I will upgrade to 1.9.2.7-7g tonight also with FTP enabled. But you prescribe to dissable FTP, strange that it doesn't work. I'm happy with this option. My mission is to have a NZB Newsgroup download server and Torrent download server with my Asus router
1.9.2.7-7g is the newest one for WL 500g routers, isn't it?
Nope :eek: 1.9.2.7-9
http://oleg.wl500g.info/
wengi
IMPORTANT: This firmware no longer supports original WL-500g/b/bv2/WL-300g/WL-HDD units: hardware vendor no longer support BCM4702 CPU. Use 1.9.2.7-9 instead.Quote:

Very nice Wengi, it's working now! Thanx for the support
First of all: linux-knowledge is probably below average.. i learnt most of it using this tutorial and the freesco router I used to have.. so if my questions are rather stupid.. excuse me :rolleyes:
Because my HD was going crazy at times I decided to install the swap and opt on an USB-stick.. now this one will eventually wear out.. and that is my concern: would there be any way for me to backup the /opt so I could just insert a new USB-stick in the future such that all settings remain the same?
(also: a 2nd question. I did this yesterday.. and since I used this tutorial I now had 3 partitions on my harddisk
1: [previous] swap
2: [previous] opt
3: harddisk
When trying to mount the harddisk to the actual /tmp/harddisk in Fstab I failed. The device just mounted everything to disc0_1 etc. when I ran mount -a it was fine - that is the harddisk (discx_3) was actually mounted on /tmp/harddisk.. however this solution did not sound good to me so I just deleted partitions 1 and 2.. which did the trick.
Is there any way to actually mount that partition using fstab?)
Hi,
backing up /opt is simply copying the files with 'cp'. Maybe you should stop the services running from /opt before. It is not a boot partition, so no need to image it.
swap does not need to be backed up.
Mounting is working fine for me as it is described in the howto.
it mounts to disk0_3 and creates a symbolic link at /tmp/harddisk.
so no prob at all.
wengi
it's still working good!!
Hi!
First Thanx for the great tutorial! I've folowed all your instructions and everything works just fine. But now I have a little problem.
I've installed transmission with ipkg. After reboot I tryed to start transmission with the command transmission_watchdog but no command like that in my distro. I'm using WL500gp V1 oleg 1.9.2.7-9.
I've had problems with 1.9.2.7-10, it won't connect my ISP sometimes for some reason, but this version works just fine for me.
Please help!
Hello Wengi,
what can i do?
All worked perfect, my Transmission was working great!!
Till, for 3 hours ago, i saw my Transmission was not downloading / uploading any torrent.
i was thinking it was possible, but after 15 minutes, still no change!
Before that he was working great for about 1 month, i guess..
Now, i thought, i will reboot the router, so he will start all the stuff again, and it would be working again.
Problem..
When i go to my http://192.168.1.1:8008/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi
He couldn't find the page
Ok, i started putty, and logged in, ( yeah, i am in the root of the router )
i think the problem is, he cannot mount the HDD.
before that i could find my hdd with ( windows network places )
so, i think it is not the HDD
but before i enter this :)
i thought i will check before i press Enter
i
The HDD was turned on. ( i saw the blue led was burning )
I turned off the router, after that i turned off the HDD,
I turned on the HDD. But now, I hear he is going on, but after 20 seconds, i give a flash (<- the led is going on, and off.) And i hear the noise is going away, so he turned off.
Maybe is my HDD the problem, i don't hope so, i have much stuff on it, i would keep...
Maybe you can tell me what's the problem
thanks for the help

Solve some problems, but...
i solved the problem with the HDD,
the power problem was solved.
i tested it without connecting the usb cable.
and if i do that, the power light is flashing blue, and the hdd goes off.
now i can connect cgi-bin/transmission.cgi
i will see the screen, but he is not uploading or downloading,
when i push a torrent, i will see the next text:
/opt/share/www/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi: kill: 9: (3373) - No such process
i will look if i can find a answer to solve this problem.
if you can tell it my, i will thank you for that.

Maybe i am a stupid usesr ;P
but offcourse, i have to push pause first, after that push watchdog, and now he is checking files.
Still my question is there, why he was stopping uploading and downloading, but i think now he is working agian.
( it is possible i am stupid, but now i solved it myself, not because i have a great knowledge, but by trying something.)
Hi all,
@Valentin
You should have a look at /opt/sbin.Code:[admin@blechbuechse root]$ find /opt/ | grep -i transmission
