Contrary to the DD-WRT router database , the Belkin F5D7231-4 v2000 cannot be flashed with TFTP . When I followed the TFTP procedures, I always got TTL=64 , never TTL=100 or TTL=128 , which is supposed to indicate that the router TFTPd is ready. I got network timeout when I tried to send the bin file anyway. The right way to flash the Belkin F5D7231-4 v2000 is to use the binary and Sercomm Utility provided by eko. Simply: Put the router in upgrade mode: unplug router, press reset button and keep it pressed while plugging in the power. Release it when lan leds turn off. Power and Connected led must blink . start the Sercomm Utility select the network interface connected to the router select...

The normal 30/30/30 reset does not work for the TP-Link TL-WR1043ND running OpenWRT. OpenWRT provides a failesafe mode from where you can recover any configuration mistakes. For the TP-Link TL-WR1043ND:
Power up the router
When SYS button starts to blink, press and hold the QSS button till SYS starts to blink faster
Telnet to 192.168.1.1. No password needed.
Erase user space data with
mtd -r erase rootfs_data
or mount the jffs2 file system with:
mount_root
and start fixing things.

The DHCP client packaged with BusyBox is udhcpc . It negotiates a lease with the DHCP server and executes a script when it is obtained or lost. There are four possible arguments to this script: deconfig : The script should put the interface in an up but deconfigured state. bound : The script should configure the interface and set any other relevant parameters. renew : This is used when a lease is renewed. IP address does not change but other parameters may change. nak : This happens when a NAK packet is received from the DHCP server. Network parameters are passed to the script via environment variables. Ubuntu documents that the default script is at /etc/udhcpc/default.script . For OpenWRT, it is located at /usr/share/udhcpc/default.script ....
