    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    I got the power run to the heatermeter still getting crashes on the web interface. I tried without the heatermeter connected and got same results. SSH and TFTP still connect; just web interface is down. I was able to reflash the router this time over ssh with the trx file. Same results after...

    Hrm, I think I killed it by using the BIN. I am used to DD-WRT and they are all bin files. I'm gonna have to find another wrt54g </div></BLOCKQUOTE> No there is really no such thing a bricking your router in my experience. You will need to do some very specific things to get it back. I...

    should i be using the TRX or the BIN? </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Flash the Trx from the command line using Putty. Wait a while then unplug and plug back in. Works everytime.

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    Still looks good small! I can understand how it would be a pain to maintain even more code. I have been looking through the code to see how the serial data is handled by the Linkmeter code. Am I correct to say that the serial data is received and stored in a "circular buffer" via the...

    No better idea for the on/off...sound good to me. As for the webpage: GUI's have to be the most difficult thing to make work...especially when you are targeting large and small screens. I am not sure how much space these web pages take up and I know we are limited on space on the router. I...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    HAHA...this is why I was interested in a button. I am never going to smoke when it is windy again! The wind would gust 20-30 MPH and drop the temp by 5-10+ degrees. I guess this just highlights my inexperience. It made me so mad. Since I don't have an LCD on my current version...I couldn't...

    So this isn't the fan in the part list? I haven't had any problems with that fan at all.

    Yes, be careful with your probes. This came straight from an e-mail exchange I had with the great folks at Maverick: "For the probe that came with the unit, if it is giving you high temperatures like you stated, then that means your probe shorted out. This is due to coming in contact with...

    No it looks great on my Galaxy SII. I just have to scroll down to see the chart. No big deal really. You probably couldn't squeeze the chart down for mobile phones and make it look good. It would be nice to see a button on the main page to allow you to toggle lid open off and on(maybe near...

    Nope...I must have read over that part. I am smoking a chicken right now but just as soon as it is free I will flash the bootloader with the Uno board selected and report back. What is the difference? UPDATE: Is this what you are looking for?: root@OpenWrt:/tmp# ./hmdude -P/dev/ttyS1...

    I am thinking it didn't work. I had an old version of HM on my chip (201110310) and that does change to the new version after doing the above procedure. It could have worked and I just don't understand what I am actually doing. It is all very interesting to me. Here is the output which is...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    No check box...just says: "The hardware is not multi-SSID capable and existing configuration will be replaced if you proceed." Maybe this is why I was having trouble doing this when I tried originally. Yeah...I noticed your pages run much more quickly than any of the stock OpenWRT. I can...

    I do see a Syncing OK...so I hope this helps. It is driving me nuts! I did test this on three separate 328 chips. Flashed bootloader using Duemilanove, USBTinyISP, and Arduino 1.0, uploaded sketch via same Duemilanove, put chips into v3.1, and followed your instructions. This is the output...

    It is the greatest thing since sliced brisket! It certainly makes it more usable. You act like you do this for a living!!! If someone needs a WRT54GL...there is a guy on craigslist Seattle that is selling his for $20 or 25. I see a couple a week on there.

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    I was bored today so redesigned the board a bit so I could fit it in my WRT54G v3. I sent it to DorkbotPDX and it will go out tomorrow. This should fit insider some G, GS, and N models that don't have the L-shaped board (don't quote me on that yet). I removed the LED components from the board...

    Bryan, How can I connect the Linkmeter router to my main router so I can use the internet connection with out plugging a cable into the back of the Linkmeter router? I tried a couple times to add another wireless radio but I can't seem to get the settings right. I want to open a port on my...

    It does this when I do the hold reset>execute avrupdate>release reset after "Stopping LinkMeter OK". Yes. Yes, it also does this. I did this a bunch of times and this is the output: Stopping LinkMeter OK avrdude: Version 5.8, compiled on Jan 5 2012 at 12:06:07 Copyright (c)...

    LinkMeter v2 Homebrew BBQ Controller - Part 1

    I assume it turns off when I hit the reset...not really sure how to tell. I have tried to reset procedure about 100 times with pretty much the same result. The LED blinks twice then there is a couple second delay then then the LED blinks twice again. If I press the reset button after the...
