USB RS232 - FTDI designs and supplies USB semiconductor devices with Legacy support including royalty-free drivers. Application areas include USB RS232, ( USB Serial ), USB Parallel, USB Docking Stations, and upgrades of Legacy designs to USB. Use a hacked USB cable that takes the 5V and GND and put it into the external. The Arduino as a serial adaptor for accessing the console of OpenWRT routers. The Arduino has an FTDI FT232RL chip that makes the USB-serial interface.

Note: I'm using the latest built Now I want to control Arduino from my TL-WR1043nd router. So I update the FTDI driver & ser2net by using the following command. Opkg install libftdi opkg install ser2net & it install successful. My problem is I don't know how to load the driver & how to use the driver.

It seems working. It can detect the Arduino(c/w FTDI chip) & pl2303 converter when I execute dmesg. I notice that the LED indicator(pin13) of Arduino is blinking if I execute echo 'any text' /dev/ttyUSB0 smching DD-WRT Novice Joined: 11 Mar 2012 Posts: 5 Posted: Tue Mar 13, 2012 11:19 Post subject: I confirmed that TL-WR1043+Openwrt+Arduino Duemilanove is working. Below is the step on how to test the Arduino. Install Openwrt. Install USB driver. Install ser2net 4.
Add 9000:raw:0:/dev/ttyUSB0:9600 to the bottom of /etc/ser2net.conf 5. Run ser2net(it is better to load at startup) 6. Run realterm terminal software from windows 7.
Enter 192.168.1.1:9000 (this is my router IP) for port. Enter 9600 for Baud. Send ASCII text Ha!Ha! My Arduino is getting response.
I can control my Arduino now. Of course I will use Delphi socket programming for the client side since Delphi is my favorite programming language.

I will flash back to DD-WRT in the future to see whether I can control my Arduino from the USB port of TL-WR1043.

We have 5x 1043NDs running various revisions of DD-WRT and have setup the Opt-Ware on an ext2 4gb USB ( ). We have been unable to load the kmod-usb-serial drivers with errors being thrown as:. opkginstallcmd: Cannot install package kmod-usb-serial. xsystem: sh: Child killed by signal 11. pkgrunscript: postinst script returned status -1. opkgconfigure: kmod-nls-base.postinst returned -1. We flashed the one box again using 14929 and used - almost identical to the previous setup.
Still no luck. Is OpenWRT still the 'better' option for Atheros devices for optware?
If so, can anyone recommend a build? Note: We have spent the whole month (June) trying to get a DD-WRT build for 1043ND which works with USB Serial drivers and no luck. Display posts from previous: Page 1 of 1 - All times are GMT Navigation.
