I followed these steps, and have been met with no success.
The payload is not injected on boot, and the SSID is not being broadcast anymore. I seem to have simply bricked the tiny thing. Any ideas? I don't have an ethernet port and don't really feel like dropping cash on an adapter on something that might not work.
If you flashed uboot you can put one of the later firmwares with wifi enabled on a FAT formatted flash drive, insert it into the dongle and turn it on while holding the reset button. It might take a few tries but eventually it should reflash it.

So, I just tried that and have some fun flashing LED lights but unfortunately the guide that came with it is entirely in Chinese.
I think I flashed uboot successfully; it did and said exactly what the guide told me. But ever since I rebooted it, it does not want to broadcast anything.

Huh, while I was typing the above paragraph some new stuff happened. Now it's broadcasting "3GWIFI_XXXX" (like, it actually has the Xs, it's not just a placeholder) but the password thats printed on it isn't working. I used your most recent firmware.bin. Do you know what it is?

Glad it's working. :) Enjoy!

I refreshed your firmware and while the password still isn't working on my laptop, it did work on my phone. But when I try to telnet into 10.1.5.1 it is refusing the connection.
Lede uses SSH instead of Telnet so you need to switch to an SSH client. At this point you don't need to though. You can switch payloads using the usb method or by connecting to the SSH port with an SCP client.

Alright, I SSH'd in as root, changed the payload, tested it on my switch (it worked) and then...when I disconnect the router from power and reconnect it to power, it doesn't boot again, like before. argh.
Any ideas?

EDIT: When it boot loops like this, both the red and blue lights are on, fwiw

This is new behaviour to me, must be a quirk or fault with your device.

OK, so I screwed up, I edit the config files manually from h t t p s://github.com/ijuintekka/fusee-a5 but wired access no longer works for me. I think the easiest way for me to sort this is just to flash the firmware.bin.
I put it on a usb stick and inserted it into the unit, but I can't see it anywhere what's the easiest way to reflash the firmware?

I've got access via wifi and can ssh from there just fine :)

[edit] I should also add that I'm shit with Linux so instructions for an idiot would be good ;)
