Title: AntRouter R1 Firmware
Post by: JollyRoger514 on February 12, 2017, 09:46:19 PM
I made the mistake of buying the AntRouter without digging to see if it was a good product. Now I'm stuck mining on SOLO, does anyone know how to get it off SOLO or change the firmware to get it to mine differently?

You're right, you really bought it for nothing if it was for the hashrate, which is negligible. Try to sell it, or something.

You'll be lucky if you ROI 1$ on it.

I believe it's solely just set up to mine solo from the factory.

I havent heard of anyone reverse engineering them, but i am sure its a similar product to the TP Link 703N.... but ive never seen one in person... yet.

But it would make sense.  Plenty of sense.  That's the same thing they cloned for Wiiboxes, openWRT, etc.

I don't have any experience with R1 router/miner.
CrazyGuy has a custom firmware for R1, which I believe allows you to mine elsewhere.
When you have a moment, please take a look.
