[edit] Unlocking

You want to SSH to your Fonera+ to start building some nice addons then this is the procedure to follow.

[edit] Prerequisites

  • Linux (libpcap installed)
  • Fonera+ (model 2201)
  • Working redboot
  • Our unlock file

[edit] method

  • get the file & unzip & give it execute rights
wget http://download.moliets-bastide.info/download.php?file=2201-unlocking.zip
gunzip 2201-unlocking.zip
chmod +x 2201-unlocking
  • now connect the LAN side of the fonera to your pc and connect the WAN side to your internet modem
  • We assume your network (LAN) is located at eth0
  • surf to http://192.168.10.1 or http://169.254.255.1 and change the public SSID in : FON_UNLOCK
  • Now execute the following:
  • ./2201-unlocking eth0
  • remove the powerplug for a few seconds on your fonera+ to reboot it (Power Recycle method)...
  • the unlocking should start within 3 seconds when powered up
  • Unlocking should take 2 minutes (it's not reflashing! it's unlocking)
  • The POWER& WIRELESS led will be blinking one by one when finished (Youtube movie)
  • You can perform the "power recycle method" once again
  • As soon as all leds are green perform the following
sudo ssh -pwd admin root@192.168.10.1
  • You should get a nice linux prompt on your fonera+

[edit] others commands available

Use the same method as described above, just change public SSID name to:

  • FON_REGISTER : change the registration status logo on status page to "Your Fonera+ is registered"
  • FON_DIAG_PAGE : install the diag page to advanced menu tab on fonera+
  • FON_REINIT : this will erase the JFFS (including SSH access). At next boot fonera+ parameters are restored to default factory settings

[edit] Debricking - Full reflashing

something went wrong? some firmware issue? reset button not working? some kind of strange ssid?
Then using this method will bring back the original FON-firmware to your fonera+

[edit] Prerequisites

  • Linux (libpcap installed)
  • Fonera+ (model 2201)
  • Working redboot
  • Our debrick file

[edit] Method

  • now connect the LAN side of the fonera to your pc
  • We assume your network (LAN) is located at eth0
  • Now execute the following:
  • ./2201-full-restore eth0
  • remove the powerplug for a few seconds on your fonera+ to reboot it (Power Recycle method)...
