Took a couple of attempts, First go round I was getting "SQUASHFS error: xz decompression failed, data probably corrupt" over and over in the serial console after installing, but started again from scratch and its good now. Thanks.

I conecct the putty but nothing happend

for me it freezes on the puTTY part, when I plug the power cable all lights on the back of the router start flashing, and it keeps doing that indefinitely

I bought a PL2303HX usb uart adapter with 4 pins. when i connect it to the pins of my meraki and i try to start the boot process from putty interrupting it with a key, it doesn't show me anything. Can someone help me??

Anyone managed to get luci installed on mx64? I'm having major issues

Hi friend, how are you???
I was seeing the video and i see that you have option S2M on Putty, how can i get that option on my putty???

[davidanderson]

been trying to flash this MX60W today, and I can get to the openwrt prompt, but no further cannot get into Luci to finish the install - found the steps on the openWRT pages to be incomplete, your gets me a bit further, but I am still missing something

Hi, do you have the link to buy the UART Adapter???
