Option globesurfer III, 09:15 PM. Have a router that doesnt power up it's stuck in initialization message. Was working fine and didnt do anything to it. Below I have outlined the primary firmware update that is being installed – it is an ADSL Modem fail-over facility (aka disaster recovery for fixed line broadband. Upgrade the Globesurfer II firmware to R2C25 or R2C27 before attempting to unlock the GTM378 module as these upgrades also update firmware in GTM378 module and allow it to work with the OPTION drivers for Windows you need to use when the module is in your laptop.

Berhubung banyaknya permintaan untuk melakukan installasi OpenWrt di router mungil Option GlobeSurfer X.1 dan sejenisnya (logo lain, misalnya STC), maka saya coba tulis tutorialnya sesederhana yang saya bisa. Mohon maaf kalau ada bahasa yang kurang jelas, harap dimaklumi ya. Nah, langsung ke pokok acara saja, jangan terlalu panjang dan lebar (nasihat pak ustad dari provinsi sebelah kepada saya: kalau terlalu panjang ibu-ibu nanti menjerit, dan jika terlalu lebar pula nanti bapak-bapak pada ngeri).
Maaf beribu maaf, ngeBRICK saya tidak tanggung ya bos. Persiapan:.
Software TFTP Server. PuTTy atau Terminal dengan Minicom. File OpenWrt GSX1 ( untuk versi huntsman). Kabel USB TTL. Kabel LAN. Obeng Plus. Air Putih (barangkali haus) Baiklah, setelah persiapan, yuk kita mulai dengan membongkar router menggunakan obeng.
Cari dan temukan letak 'sekrup' di bagian bawah router, tepatnya seperti foto berikut ini (maaf kalau fotonya kabur, cuma 3MP kameranya): Letak sekrup Option GlobeSurfer X.1 Setelah itu, buka casing dan cabut kabel ke USB. IP: 10.10.10.3, Netmask: 255.255.255.0, dan Gateway biarkan saja kosong. Saya pilih IP ini karena IP itu default dari bootloader ralink. Boleh saja dirobah dengan mengetikkan IP sesuai kemauan masing-masing, tidak ada yang larang kok bos.
Eh, jangan lupa matikan dulu routernya ya setelah test PuTTY tadi, konekkan kabel LAN dari PC ke router. Buka lagi PuTTY (jika sudah keburu ditutup), saya pake Terminal+Minicom saja.
Hidupkan router, dan perhatikan ada tulisan 'Please choose the operation. Bla bla bla', segera tekan angka '2' di keyboard untuk memilih 'Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP'. Silakan menunggu sampai router reboot dan sukses dengan firmware baru yaitu OpenWrt GSX1. Selamat mencoba dan semoga sukses. Mohon maaf sekali lagi, resiko gagalnya adalah ngeBRICK seandainya salah pilih angka pada boot awal. Perhatikan pilihan berikut ini: Please choose the operation: 1: Load system code to SDRAM via TFTP. 2: Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP.
3: Boot system code via Flash (default). 4: Entr boot command line interface. 7: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via Serial. 9: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via TFTP.
Harap diperhatikan dengan sebaik-baiknya, jangan sampai memilih angka yang berisi baris 'Load Boot Loader.' Karena itu adalah untuk mengupgrade bootloadernya. Jika bootloader rusak, maka router akan brick total (sepertinya belum ada cara yang mudah untuk mengembalikan router ke posisi normal selain via SPI Flash). Sekali lagi, harap berhati-hati.
No notes for slide. When interacting with the physical device, the left most “Function” button allows the client to ‘toggle’ through the features. These are:Signal StrengthText Messages ReceivedTelephone Calls ReceivedNumber of Connected UsersUSB Device ConnectedOnce a function is selected, the icon will invert or animate and the screen will be populated with the details relevant to that function.
If a delay of a few seconds occurs without activity, the screen will return to the ‘Home’ position (showing stats of use/connectivity), and a few seconds later, will revert to the Time based screen saver.The right hand button powers the device on and off, but also ‘wakes’ the device up if in screen saver mode, and also manually connects/disconnects. One of the most exciting new features of the GS3 is the client ‘Notifier’.
This applet is intended to ‘talk’ to the client, and alert them when events occur. These events could be:Text Messages receivedPhone calls being receivedOperator InformationError messages andOther useful device based details.If the client misses a Notifier event – the ‘task bar’ will show the Notifier icon animate (or illuminate), attracting the clients attention when they return to their PC.The Notifier is especially useful when the GlobeSurfer is positioned out of eyesight – in another room for example. Other competitor devices require the client to take the initiative and check their router to see if they have missed anything – this is both time consuming and impractical, as it is not in a persons habit to check a browser randomly.
The fact the GlobeSurfer takes this hassle away from the client is testimony to the GS3’s client focus, and it’s goal of making communication between the device and the owner as streamlined and intuitive as possible. Contact with the GS3 is now through a revised and re-designed web browser. The browser has been sub-divided into “Basic” and “Advanced” segments so clients who only require the basic features such as SMS, Telephone, Quick Set-Up and Security can perform all these tasks without being consumed by the power user functionality that exists within the Advanced section.All the high end technical capabilities of the GS2 remain within the GS3 – but these are taken to new levels of sophistication.
Firmware updates and Software updates can be dropped onto an FTP site which the GS3 looks at when connected. When a new Firmware or Software release comes out, the GS3 will alert the client (via Notifier or Browser message), who will in turn be able to take appropriate action.The Browser is also client customisable.
