What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. switch on TPLINK 3040 wireless router
2. switch on camera D7000 (connected by USB cable to router)
3. make wireless connection between Nexus7 and router (successful)
4. launch DD on Nexus 7. 
5. long-touch the 'connect to OpenWrt' button to bring up IP confirmation 
box(tapping used to work but suddenly not now!)
6. Tap OK to accept IP address 192. 168. 1. 1.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

-Camera should enter LV mode (mirror should slap up), LV image should appear on 
tablet surrounded by all the DD user interface.
-IP box is dismissed. Camera does not respond. Screens remains as when DD first 
launched.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I do not know where to find the DD version number.
Android 4.4.2

Please provide any additional information below.

When I tap OK in the IP confirmation box, the LEDs on the router flash as 
follows: Internet LED x 1, WLAN LED x 6 (2 groups of 3 flashes)

The lates DD version (0.30.33) requires a firmware update for the MR3040.
You can find the new firmwares here:

Thanks - how can I check what DD version I have?

I'm guessing that it is the openWRT sys *upgrade* file that should use for my 
V1 router?

I am also guessing that I have the latest version of DD and that 'auto update' 
upset the functionality. :( Still, once working again, it may be 
bigger/better/faster!

Yes you need the 'sysupgrade' image. If you have a V1 MR3040 the you need the 
V1 one (ddserver_openwrt-tl-mr3040-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade_0.12.bin).

Connect the MR3040 with network cable to your PC or laptop.
Access the OpenWrt web interface ( http://192.168.1.1 by default)
Go to 'System->Backup/Flash image'
Press the 'Perform reset' button (this will reset OpenWrt to it's initial state 
and reboot the MR3040)
Once it reboots go to again in 'System->Backup/Flash image'
Under 'Flash new image' uncheck the 'Keep settings' checkbox
Select the 'sysupgrade' image that you downloaded.
Press the 'Flash image' button. (this will upload the firmware to MR3040)
Press again the button to perform the flash.

Wait 2-3 minutes, the MR3040 will reboot.

Be sure that the MR3040 battery is full.

After that you can access it again with http://192.168.1.1
The wireless is enabled by default, the SSID is 'DDServerAP'

Here's a temporary fix for above. Hopefully this will save a few hours for 
someone else that may run into this problem until the genius that is Zoltan 
Hubai gets time to fix it , and looking from this thread he's enough on his 
plate. Kudos to you man this is excellent software . Had the same problem as 
above , updated the DD app to the latest version v. 0.30.33 , and then it 
wouldn't connect my d7000 to the tp-link (As soon as you try connect using the 
openWRT button nothing just blank. Although I could open a browser on my 
android tab and open up LUCI on the OPENWRT router to check that I at least had 
a properly working WIFI connection. I also checked the syslog (on openwrt on 
the tplink)and it showed that the tplink had registered the usb port with the 
camera. I did the sysupgrade recommended for the TP-link to bring its firmware 
up to speed but still no joy. The only fix I had was to install the v0.30.30 
version of the android app and hey presto, it all worked again.

Not sure what should I fix. The V0.30.33 will only work with the new V0.12 
OpenWrt firmware. In post #1 there is a link for for the MR3040 OpenWrt V0.12 
firmware. For both V1 and V2 routers.

Answer #5 is for V1 and V2 user. If you have V2 router then you need to 
download the V2 sysupgrade image.
this one -> ddserver_openwrt-tl-mr3040-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade_0.12.bin

And then follow the step in post #5.
