Which JTAG cable from these ?
July 07, 2012 04:53AM
Hi
I have bricked my Pogoplug pink V2 E02 .
During jeffs install got errors in uboot and corrupt debs error , checked the thread http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,4323,page=1 then installed
using gorgone wget to install correctly , booted fine . Uboot had errors but it booted fine with the debian prompt . Tried installing new kernel 3.2 .

Errors in last command
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x00000000 -e 0x00000000 -n initramfs-3.3.2-kirkwood-dg -d initrd.img-3.3.2-kirkwood-dg uInitrd
that file not found , tried again but still same error .Knew was screwed so thought to update unboot atleast so i have a booting system .Installed the new uboot from the new kernel 3.2 thread , automated install and not manual version .It did not finish lots of errors , tried twice thrice but no luck .

Rebooted and as expected bricked , no lights , cannot find ip with ipscan , no ip is there
Got nokia ca42 and made the serial cable . Rebooted , luckily uBoot seems to be working, but uBoot environment is messed up .

printenv is
u-boot>> printenv

Got the rootfs from here http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,7806 and booted correctly to debian prompt . Thanks to davygravy , I came to
root@debian-kirkwood-wide login : prompt .
Installed rescue system http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?4,7915 from here . Arch number set was 3542 &untarred and installed the rescue system . Installed other apps like transmission , samba on working debian rootfs install
Till now not rebooted and after rebooted screwed and this is the error

Booted rescue and came to rescue:~#
here i tried to update uboot manually which again gave errors and did not finish manually ,rebooted came to the uboot prompt and it started becoming unresponsive that is not taking keyboard , tried 4/5 times didint work . Then added the serial cable jumpers again to check
it worked for 2 minutes , i cancelled auto boot came to uboot prompt , gave command version and after that it stopped taking keyboard
restarted and serial console is empty now , doesnt show the start up log . Well now its completely lost , no output from serial also , just blank putty screen
another thing when i give power to pogo the green LED has stopped glowing .When i switch it on and off then LAN and power LED glows and again off
All these steps were completely tutored to me by our member varkey . A big thanks to him and this would not have been possible without him .

Now the jtag journey starts . Now please tell me out of these which will revive my Pogoplug . They are available locally here and ebay will take minimum 20 days so want to buy from here .

I had made another thread asking if Pogoplug Wireless Extender POGO-W01 can be used with windows but it got trashed somehow . Was able to successfully use it in windows so updating it here

Pogoplug WIFI update
MODEL : Pogoplug Wireless Extender POGO-W01
DRIVERS : Ralink RT3572 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless Lan USB DeviceDriver
download page http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_support/support.php?sn=500
or
http://d10.devid.info/file/88/wl_3870_3.0.11.0_w700.zip if you dont want to download the 22MB package for the drivers only

Any one who has the pogoplug branded wifi dongle can use it on windows also with Ralink RT3572 drivers . It works like a normal WIFI N usb dongle . It took me 4 months to find the solution . This post will also help other users searching for the same .
Ralink config utility/GUI doesnt work with the Ralink website driver/Config utility . It will also not install the driver but has to manually installed from drivers available in the OS .The Ralink utility puts the driver in windows drivers but driver has to be selected and has to be manually installed . Once installed it works like a normal WIFI N dongle . Its a dual band dongle 2.4 and 5 Ghz both are available in the Driver/Advanced tab . I dont know its simultaneous dual band or selective dual band . I think the GUI is not working as the device ID has not been added in the GUI as it was only for Pogoplug so it refuses to recognize it but being the same hardware it was able to override it . Now if someone could tell how to add the device id in the GUI so that both bands can be used . I only have Samsung GS2 which has 5ghz and it showed only one network when i used it as AP in Win 7 x64 so my presumption its selective dual band and 5Ghz cannot be used till GUI is active
Any pointers ?

confirmed its selective dual band , my Samsung GS2 could see no network on manually selecting 5Ghz band only . Immediately connected on 2.4 ghz
