Reply To: Converting DSL-AC68U to RT-AC68U for use as AiMesh Node – Solved I’m sure there were a series of posts on the old forum about hacking a DSL-AC68U to make it into an RT-AC68U. Sadly those posts are lost and not cached…

A follow up – i finally got the two DSL-AC68U’s set up as an Access Point & a Node

In the end i needed to convert both of the DSL’s to RT’s as per the instructions in the post and bingo it finally worked after every other combination i tried didn’t.

A couple of points

1. I needed to use the RT 300438640558 Firmware to get the initial firmware restoration to work
2. The last line of the nvram commands says nvram commit=1, but this wasn’t valid, but nvram commit seemed to work

Thanks for your help UK Sentinel!
