Starting the 11$ WiFi AWM002 OpenWRT board

Finally I got my 11$ WiFi OpenWRT board ( AWM002 ) with largeboard and Tiny Boards.

So here is first boot up of the AWM002 module with Large Base Board.

Hardware needed

• Large Base Board & AWM002 module
• Decent 12V supply
• USB cable to connect to PC (optional: for serial port access to AWM002 module)
• Not optional, in case you do not connect AWM002 to your LAN 

Setup (HW)

• Connect Large Base board with 12V socket
• Connect LAN cable 
• Connect USB cable to computer (for serial port access)
• Power on (white switch)

Setup (SW) in Linux box

• First create a virtual interface in Linux to connect to AWM002 for following command as root-user
• ifconfig p10p1:0  10.10.10.1
• Where p10p1 is my NIC-name (in Fedora, in your case it could be 'eth0')
• 10.10.10.1 is the IP address of   p10p1:0
• BTW, 10.10.10.254 is address of AWM002 by default (see in above AWM002 link's Updates-tab)
• Ensure that you have created the interface
• Run ping command to check AWM002 is up
• ping  10.10.10.254
• If the AWM002 is up then try for telenet login using following credentials
• user: admin, password: admin
• BTW, admin is having uid/gid as '0' -- admin is su :)
• In case you connect PC via USB cable, ensure that Linux box has created /dev/ttyUSB0
• check via 'dmesg' command to see exact serial device name
