Thank you for the translation, but 3 doesn't correlate with 'dutzende',
or you have another, undisclosed source for your information?
8-) i'am involved in this special case, so i know the real situation.
(somebody tends to hype here) this is a very funny thread,
especially for the non-germans i think 8-)
bye, bastian
i can recommend this stuff ->
i'd simply recommend not soldering at all;
you can build your serial cable with pins at the end (the same square
metal pins you've been soldering all this time) and insert them into the
holes on the PCB.
that gets very interesting when you have more than a couple of routers.
in that case, you can even build a dumb cable (just pins on each side,
no serial-to-usb circuit) and use it to connect two routers (i.e. one
bricked, and one alive with package 'screen') , GND -> GND / TX -> RX /
RX -> TX
and then you don't even need the serial-to-USB converter, you can see
the console using "screen /dev/ttyS0 115200" for example
(you might have to remove an /etc/inittab line to prevent the ash
--login command taking control of the serial)
Cheers!
