Hey tried to flash a gl-inet300m10-ext which as I understood it was/is on the supported hardware list. Got it flashed today and it seems that it claims its not supported?
flashed image: aredn-3.23.4.0-ath79-nand-glinet_gl-ar300m-nor-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

Ahhhhh I see my mistake now I did not use the correct firmware.... hmmm any advice on how to get out of this pickle? as I don't see a way to re-flash?
You might need to follow the Uboot tutorial to debrick your router.

Thank you the uboot trick did it for me. If anyone finds this thread via search in the future the key was to hold down the reset button while powering it on wait for the red light to blink 5 times and then set a static ip directions said 192.168.1.2 which got me into the web portal at 192.168.1.1 where I was able to flash the correct version of the AREDN firmware to the device.
