Will try, that sounds bothersome. This will be first time ive flashed anything if I can manage to connect to IPVanish so I can get american Itunes and be able to subscribe to hulu through it, its done its job will get put on Ebay and then back on normal Sky Router. Was considering buying a linsky yesterday off ebay, guy would set it up for me too but wants my ipvanish username and password so thats put me right off!! Will try it though and get back to you thanks for the link!

Hi !

I've got a 2.1 has well.
But instead, I've decided to use openwrt, which seems to be more stable on this one.

It's working fine for me on 14.07-rc3.
http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr1043nd#installation

Just need to flash with the factory image.
http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07-rc3/ar71xx/generic/openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr1043nd-v2-squashfs-factory.bin

Login into telnet and set password (passwd).
Login into ssh.

Then install and start LucI (WebUI)

Quote:
opkg update
opkg install luci ip
/etc/init.d/uhttpd enable
/etc/init.d/uhttpd start


I also needed to change my ip settings to have internet access before installing.
Quote:
uci set network.lan.ipaddr=192.168.0.254
uci set network.lan.netmask=255.255.255.0
uci set network.lan.gateway=192.168.0.1
uci set network.lan.dns=8.8.8.8
uci commit network

and then reboot.
