Omega2 firmware V0.3.2 is changing MAC address of wlan0

@an-arshadali the MAC address is not changing, there's just different MAC addresses for the 3 different network interfaces (WiFi AP, WiFi client, and ethernet). So each Omega2 device is allocated 3 sequential MAC addresses at manufacturing. See more details in the blog post on this topic and in the App Note on MAC Addresses & Unique IDs.

@Lazar-Demin Thank you

[resolved] Bricked Omega2+ installing firmware 0.1.10-b163; now won't install firmware from USB via Expansion dock

RESOLVED: After reading https://community.onion.io/topic/1762/omega2-flash-omega2p-v0-1-10-b162-bin-break, I copied the firmware to a 1 GB flash drive I had in a drawer (instead of the 64 GB one I keep with my computer). It is now going through the restore process as expected. @Global-Moderators you guys really need to pull firmware builds that are known to cause bricking.

This might be also a interesting question: https://community.onion.io/topic/1804/

USB pivot-root always reset after firmware upgrade

Is there anyway to prevent this from happening? Just a bit annoying having to continually re-jig the file system after a firmware upgrade.

Sooooo, apparently running setup for the 10th time did the trick and console is now up.

Updating to latest firmware reset my device!!

@Luciano-S. Yep, it's in the Documentation section of the Wiki: https://wiki.onion.io/Documentation/Firmware-Changelog It's now also mentioned on the Wiki Homepage

Firmware Upgrade 0.0.4 to 0.0.5 hangs

Should be possible with sysupgrade command... It's described in the cross compile tutorial. sysupgrade openwrt-ar71xx-generic-onion-omega-squashfs-factory.bin If you wish the system to try to preserve modified files in /etc directory, where most of the configuration is kept, add the -c flag: sysupgrade -c openwrt-ar71xx-generic-onion-omega-squashfs-factory.bin If you wish to overwrite all configuration changes and restore the original image setting, add the -n flag: sysupgrade -n openwrt-ar71xx-generic-onion-omega-squashfs-factory.bin
