Factory Reset
The 3-seconds repair does not work
GL-iNet, in their documentation, talk about a Repair procedure: keep the reset button pressed for 3 seconds (the power LED starts flashing slowly). This should repair the network config, but in our case it did not work.
The 10-seconds reset
Press and hold for 10 seconds the reset button (the power LED starts flashing quickly) then release to reset the router to factory settings. All user data will be cleared.
Configuring the switch from the command line
The GL-AR750 contains a switch with 5 ports (numbered from #0 to #4) capable of VLANs: two ports are exposed to the to the outside as the LAN 1 and LAN 2 ports, the same switch has the port #0 internally connected with the CPU eth1.
| Port | Connection |
|---|---|
| 0 | Connected to CPU eth0 at 1Gbit full-duplex. |
| 1 | Connected to LAN 1 external port (toward the power socket). |
| 2 | Connected to LAN 2 external port. |
| 3 | Not connected. |
| 4 | Not connected. |
The switch can be configured through the LuCI interface Network ⇒ Switch or using the swconfig tool from the command line. See the OpenWRT documentation about swconfig.
