Thank you, but I am quite capable of using binwalk myself. The file system is not encrypted.

A few days ago I was reading the Wikipedia article on LZ77 compression, and I suspect that may be what's used on the config files. Even if I am correct, I still don't have the time to do the necessary work, and if it's going to encourage more people to actually use TP-Link routers, I'd rather not bother really.

i tried to compress in LZ77 and the file obtained is very small (7KB), similar to that generated by the router, but the the router don't accept it, says "file not valid". However Tplink release me the GPL code for vr2800v at this link http://static.tp-link.com/resources/gpl/GPL_VR2800vV1.tar.gz
it can be useful?

The GPL source code released does not include the source code for various proprietary software components, including most of the custom TP-Link software. So no, it's not useful, it does not contain the source code for the part you are interested in.

I have resolved the mistery...the problem is checksum!!!
I tried to modify the md5 hash of the original bin with this software http://imristo.com/hash-manager-change-the-hash-of-any-file/ and i take, on the original bin file, the same error (file error) of the bin modified!

Sorry to bump an old thread. Did your last post mean you got it working?
