3 Fix 2, found elsewhere

Motivation:

  1. Mikrotik support sold me that Hilink mode sticks will be supported in RouterOS version 7. Given that all sorts of forum authors have asked Mikrotik for the General Availability ov v7 and nobody was able to tell, I decided to wait no longer.

Since an easy mode switch only seems to work with devices in stick mode, and as I had a more recent device with a more recent firmware, I needed to take a more complicated way. But no, it is not complicated. See by yourself:

I followed the instructions given here:

3.2 Open the case

The stick can be opened using a TX5HF screwdriver. You just need to unscrew both screws near the USB plug.

Use a flat screwdriver to carefully remove the rest of the case.

3.3 Set the stick into an init mode

Use a crocodile clamp or something else and connect the plug's ground to the first of the round contact pads. This will shorten your stick and set it into a boot mode.

The Russian guy explains how to do that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RsFQH-lAQg&feature=youtu.be

You will now have a serial device at /dev/ttyUSB0

3.4 balong-usbdload

Now flash the first part. I guess, it erases the stick.

I don't spear Russian, but this looks like success.

Your Stick will now create three serial interfaces:

  • /dev/ttyUSB0
  • /dev/ttyUSB1
  • /dev/ttyUSB2

Now flash the new firmware to the stick. Try with all three devices. I was successful with /dev/ttyUSB2 (the last I tried):
