WE826-T2

Post by JohnnyChristo »

Hi all
I have a WE826-t2
I want to access hotel portals through it so my othe devices can access it without logging into the portal. Any thoughts would be welcome.
I believe the ravel package to be ideal but i cant locate the firmware upgrade.

Do you mean to setup your wifi as a WAN client bridge? Look up WiFi as WAN for openWRT. I've done it, but it's not super straight forward. I had to follow a step by step tutorial. Basically you select the wifi and change it to a client instead of access point, I think, then you can use it to look for other wifi signals and log into them.

First thing I would do is make sure that my web browser is cleared of all cache and then only use a private/incognito tab in the browser for all router settings and operations in the webUI. The web cache of all browsers does some dumb stuff when these routers aren't acting right.

Second thing I would do is flash it with firmware recovery, then flash it again. Then maybe again.

It sounds odd, but its what I always do.

Also, when issues arise always use ethernet to troubleshoot, and never wifi. You say you cant use the wifi, so Im sure that's what you are doing, but I have to say it anyway.
