Hello! can somebody help me?
i need to add wlan0 (wifi) interface to miniDLNA
it must be added over ssh in /etc/init.d/minidlna
but i can't found instruction for this.
can some one understand me how to do this?

 

a more easy way is to setup FTP and navigate to /etc/init.d/minidlan and user a texteditor ( like notepad++) to edit/save. Then reboot box.

setup samba(ignore in your case) + FTP :

 

ok. but what and where i should add to minidlna?

not sure you have the right info, in etc/init.d/ its the start script, not the config file, you probably need to search in /etc/ or in /etc/config/ , for the config file and edit that.

Hello, can I use aria2 with some premium account like wickedcloud? I'm looking ro try a guide who explains how configure an rapishare account, i tought it's the same, but i can't know the commands shell in openwrt. I don't understand why i have insert "sleep 60" like the first page of this guide. My purpose should be to modify /var/etc/aria2/aria2.conf or make a copy. Can someone hwlp me?

 

the sleep 60 is there to force aria to start later ( after HDD initialization )
you edit/make a copy like you do in a normal linux environment using the console, google it.

 

Ok, thanks, i'll try it. When I use ubuntu distro and i have to edit a file .conf by the shell usually i use "nano file.conf" but in this case i can't...i'll looking for a solution...

 

Because nano is not installed. Use "vi" comand

 

@HaoSs i put my problem about X10 on X6 becase i could not access to anyone forum pages apart that. Now there isn't this problem. I dont know about it depended.
About Aria2 i tried to "add a task" i added http:wickedcloud.file but it download just a web page, and I can't recognised where directory is. Sda1. I can see it on putty but i can't know what is in zidoo dashboard i don't find that file in no way. So i removed from Putty. From I can see an usb hd external, but if i want download on internal disk what is the correct directory?

 

why dont you use the web interface ? just access the openwrt , turn aria2 on, refresh, should have a new button that lets you open the aria2 interface

 

Yes, I did it. In the new tab 127...../yaaw i click on add--> open window where i can put http,ftp,...links: here i paste (for example) http://www.easybytez.com/xxxxx aria2 download web page and not the file wich webpage points. To be clearer: in jdown you can insert link container and it download every file to every link pointed to. Maibe it is not possible with aria. The great problem is that i'm looking for a wiki or guide (complete and clear) about this program but i cant find nothing (apart official wiki that explains line command options)

 

jdown is not the same as aria2. i think link should be like : blabla.com/downlaod.rar/exe ,for aria2 to download it

 

oook thanks, i had need two days to understand that this program can't me help

 

try with this link : http://www.mediafire.com/file/1s6dx18oi328e8o/OTA-X10-v1.4.12-201708191058.zip , should work in this format

 

Yeah i'm sure it will function, but it's not im looking for (like functions program)

 

Hi again I'm trying to configure samba following tips &tricks guide video. But as soon i have stopped me. In the video he can access to open wrt by computer inserting 192.168.1.x, i can't. I can having access just on zidoo from settings openwrt-->advanced settings and ip page is 127.0.0.0. Then, if i go to Mount Point, i can see just Usb Storage attached to zidoo (that are yet shares, i can see them on ubuntu) but i can see sda1(internal memory). Can anyone help me, explaining to me what setting is wrong in my actual configuration? For example: when i try to download with aria2 i had the same problem in the shell: i cannot see internal memory so i downloaded forced on usb attached
Ps sorry sincerely for my english
