Hi guy's
It seems its not my first time that happens, but sometimes after CLI flash i loose control over the router and cannot reboot or execute any other command...like shell is gone...47874>47893
I can use dropbear but no commands or GUI access..
apart of physical reboot is there a way how to reactivate shell via SSh?

Already tried reboot -f (force)?
10's giuliomagnifico as it came into my mind, i tried it too, but it seams for some odd reason, shell is down, it happens, sometimes...once in a while..
KP-69 noting in the shutdown script that will interfere...and if i have no physical access to the button or power switch, it's funny...have to wait...its a company router, where only i have control over it and its locked in the IT network room ...
In fact router is fully functional..
so, my idea was if i can break something, like shutdown/kill vital process via htop and force it to autoshutdown kind of...or a way to restart shell.. _________________ Atheros

Nothing to see here... you bricked one of these because your shutdown script hung the router, and I am not the one who said this in the emails

I'm sure there is a valid explanation for what caused this, but we'll never get it. I have a couple of these in service myself with DD-WRT and have no issues upgrading via webUI or CLI or using a reboot command via ssh. There's more to the picture than meets the eye here. Not trying to play rugby here or be rude, it's just pretty obvious that there is something wrong and it is user-induced.
it could be (not that you are rude )... up to a use err..
the odd bit... it happens on random basis...not only on my 1043v2 and not every time...for example with almost identical set up, it happened on 1 of the 1043v2 but not on the other 1043v2... _________________ Atheros
