Everything is up and running on the board and menu. For some reason my little cheap 390 1/4 watt 5% resistor works with my wishield implementation but not the Linkmeter v3.1 board. I put in a 1% and it works again. I am sure there is a good reason for this?!? Yeah I was able to read from...

I got stuck here for over a week. I don't think I could ping it so I wouldn't focus on that. It wasn't until I hooked up the serial port that I figured out I was in failsafe. It does sound like you are in failsafe. Assuming you are using a Linkmeter build, once you get into failsafe, use Putty...

Ehhh...I don't think it is the actual LCD. I tested all aspects of the LCD and it works great. Maybe there is something wrong with the buttons. They worked in the old code.

I used USBTinyISP with the ICSP pins on my Arduino. Easy and worked right away. I used the latest optiboot boot loader from here http://code.google.com/p/optiboot/. I saw Bryan say something in an earlier post about this boot loader. I looked at the schematic and the LED on the v3.1 board...

Okay so everything is wired up and mostly working. For some reason, the menu isn't working out of box with the build in the git. I don't see anything on line 2 of the LCD. I can toggle the lidopen mod. The board is not connected to the router or a WiShield. I could probably figure this...

I tried using the serial port again on the Arduino and it worked! It works on my laptop but not my desktop. However, I can only read data on the console using the TX pins. When I hooked up the RX the data gets garbled...presumably because there is some issue with the voltage. In any case I was...

Both boards sold within a minute of each other lastnight. I have used my Arduino to program an Arduino on a breadboard by pulling out the atmega. I tried to read the serial data using the Arduinos ftdi chip with no success. I tested the header pins on the router and I am getting 3.3v signals...

Good to know on the shipping. So, $9.22 for the board plus a first class stamp. No one has asked yet. I am actually trying to flash the linksys firmware back. I have tried tftp2 and the command prompt tftp. It says it successfully flashes but I can't get it to ping or load the conf page...

I am slowly populating my board as I get time. I am still waiting on two parts which should get here this week. I figure I will be done with it by the board by this weekend. I got a new WSM for my birthday so I need to rig up a blower attachment somehow. I came up with a little design in a...

Dave when did you put your order in? I got mine in on the 24th, just curious. thanks, dave </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Same order. I live in Seattle and they ship from Portland area (3 hours away) so I got mine quick. You will likely get yours tomorrow or Wednesday. He shipped them on Saturday.

Hi guys. I got my boards today from DorkbotPDX. Wow these are great quality! Well I only need one so if anyone is interested I will sell them one. My cost was $9.22 per board. I will sell it to you for cost plus shipping. I assume shipping will be cheap since they are small and light. Just...

I found that on certain components you can get muh better deals on eBay directly from China. Most LCDs are $11-15 if you buy them from the usual online retailers. You can get a nice 16x2 LCD in two weeks from China for $3 with free shipping. They are as good as the ones from...

Bryan...I have learned more this weekend than in the 4 years since I got out of graduate school. Thanks for the education. My wife is a bit ****ed at me so I will have to put the project down for a couple days or risk certain death. I ordered 3 of your boards from Dorkbot. I don't have the...

Boy it was a bear to fix this one. For anyone who happens to flash the Linkmeter bin to the WRT150N, these are the step to uninstall: 1. Make sure you the router is connected to the internet so you can use SSH to execute a wget command. 2. Download Putty (SSH/Telnet tool). Make sure SSH is...

Bryan...thanks again for the help. My dad designs networks for a very large bank and my mom is a retired computer programmer so I have been around computers and the internet my entire life (I am 30). Too bad they live 4000 miles away. I would say I am above average but I really just started...

As expected...I got yelled at this morning and was directed to fix the problem. Here is the breakdown: WRT160N...checked the packet source in wireshark...all are coming from my PC Lan card...none from the router...looks like I need to go find a FTDI cable WRT150N...I can access the Openwrt...

Your suggestions worked and I can see the web page on my WRT150N...pretty sweet. The only problem is that I haven't been able to manage to get the wifi to work on the WRT150N. There is some guidance on fixing this issue using a package in kamikaze. In the process of trying to get the wifi...

Hi Bryan...I have been following these threads since Bob first posted back in 2009. I have a working Heatermeter with the WiShield...thanks for all the effort you and all the others have put into this! I have had a great time and have learned a lot. I appreciate all of the time you have put...
