I'm just fascinated by the fact that it's straight up rejecting the usb storage device. That has to be by design, right?
See attached file. It seems to be for mounting devices to be used with SMB, however I cannot seem to get such a function to work properly, even with my USB in NTFS.I notice that there is a shell script called "storage.sh" in /usr/sbin
I suspect that there is a udev rule that is executing it, and that this shell script is doing something dickish, like ejecting the usb device. Not 100% sure, but that is the suspicion.
There is no default share (no /etc/smb.conf). However, running "samba_add_dir.sh" with its default parameters creates smb.conf and an entry within it.I want to see what samba has for a default share. We have smpasswd, so we can set the samba password to whatever we damn well please, so that is not an obstacle. We just need to know where it expects its storage. We will provide it some, then see if the daemon is running. If it is not, we will start it.
[media]
path = /media
valid users = admin
browseable = yes
writable = yes
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775

I've tried killing and then restarting smbd, but I can't see the server on other devices.
They didn't install ubootit's a mode where only uboot is loaded, you find what IP address the router is looking for, then you set that ip to your ethernet port.
Actually, it turns out I can see another device, under the name "ZLMNET". I've tried "admin" as the username and password, but it won't let me access it.
Hell yeah @Wierd_w, it worked!

Now, before I fuck anything up... Just copy the firmware.bin and uboot images to the share, and follow the installation process like normal?
what device was that?@Wierd_w Fuck yeah! It worked! Thanks so much for all the help!! How absolutely convoluted a setup, but it actually did work! Huzzah!
but he could atleast link the device he bought and show a image, did he say if it was a 3G/4G wifi Router or something elseNot a clue.
We might start having to ask for output of
uname -a
on these "I gots troubles in my dongles!" exchanges, so we can then positively identify factory firmwares, and their quirks (like this USB horse-shit), and work-arounds (like this tmpfs + smbd kludge method)

The same one shown here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/fusee-lede-dongle-6-payload-injector.508750/page-5#post-8119274what device was that?
