The device is a wireless N router with
Note1: The TL-WR841N is identical except that the antennas are not detachable. TP-Link naming scheme is, that devices ending in a D have detachable antennas.
Note2: v5.2, v5.4 etc. are all v5, similarly for v7, v8, v9. The only difference is the firmware version they come with.

The port indexes in OpenWrt and in hardware (on the case) are mangled (at least in Barrier Breaker):
| Port | index in /etc/config/network |
|---|---|
| CPU | 0 |
| 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 3 |
| 3 | 4 |
| 4 | 1 |
eth0 is directly connected to the WAN port.
The port indexes in OpenWrt and in hardware (on the case) are swapped:

| 3 | 2 |
| 4 | 1 |
It is possible to run 802.1Q tags on these ports. As of Chaos Calmer mixed (tagged/untagged) VLANs are working, and can be configured via LUCI. The maximum VLAN number is 15
eth1 is directly connected to the WAN port.
The Barrier Breaker image already includes a GUI, you do not have to install it manually.
Note: Newest version of tp link firmware (tested on TL-WR841N_V9_150310 / 3.16.9) does not accept openwrt firmware filename, because they are two long ; rename it to something < 64 chars, ending with .bin.
Warning! in some cases after reboot you don't have web interface (GUI), only telnet and ssh access. You can install GUI, for details see: luci.essentials, but before install LuCI (GUI) you need to configure your router to have access to internet, for configuration see: internet.connection
For v8,v9,v10,v11,v12 TFTP install is much easier
Beware that this installation method needs a TTL level serial console usb to TTL like DKU-5 data cable or RS232-TTL level shifter like this: 
and a working TFTP server and should not be attempted unless you have experience with this sort of thing or are eager to learn.
This is taken more or less verbatim from https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=24203, thanks to dl3daz.

As most other current TP-Link routers this device can be flashed and debricked without serial access. Basically, the procedure is as follows:
192.168.0.66 (the router will have 192.168.0.86)
WARNING! For hardware version 13, it is very likely that u-boot will be erased while using this method, as most mediatek SOC models tend to! Therefore, do NOT flash sysupgrade image using TFTP! Instead, follow the instructions described here: tftp_recovery_de-bricking for the factory image, for OpenWrt image, you must append the bootloader using dd. If the bootloader gets overwritten, the only way out is to use a SPI flash programmer to reflash it.
TFTP server log may contain info about firmware image name that router requested. Something like:
Read request for file <wr841nv8_tp_recovery.bin> . Mode octet [21/11 09:45:27.574]
For details, see reset_button_method_no_serial_cable_needed
With the TL-WR842ND router, there is a catch: the stock firmware is obtained from the OEM: versions 1,5,7,8,9(versions v1 and v1.5 have same latest fw) and link for v3
The following method applies both for the V1 V3 V5 V7 V8 and V9 since the bootloader is the same size.
An example of an image file with the word "boot" in it is wr841nv9_en_3_14_4_up_boot(131129).bin.
Cut the first 0x20200 (that is 131,584 = 257*512) Bytes from original firmware:
dd if=orig.bin of=tplink.bin skip=257 bs=512
You should transfer the firmware image to the /tmp folder and revert back to original firmware (if available you can flash the firmware via the webinterface as well):
Via the safer method using sysupgrade:
sysupgrade /tmp/tplink.bin
Or you use the mtd method:
mtd -r write tplink.bin firmware
It is also possible to revert to the stock firmware using the method with tftp described in "TFTP install". (you still need the firmware images without the boot part, unless you're using v13, in which case refer to the instructions for TFTP flashing above).
OEM TP-Link firmware for the TL-WR841ND with the boot part removed or the original firmware if there wasn't a boot part to revert to the original OEM firmware:
telnet 192.168.1.1
If this didnt work check the ip adress on the PC or if you were too slow to connect during the failsafe mode. Still not working? Read this!
In telnet do the following things one after another:
passwdenter
yourpasswordenter
againyourpasswordenter
mtd -r erase rootfs_dataenter
firstbootenter
reboot -fAfter rebooting log in again just to check if the router is accessable. If you cant start again at the beginning.
Now change the network settings on the PC back to "Aquire IP adress automatically" and connect the router with the internet. Do a manual reboot by simply turning it off and back on again. The PC should now get an ip adress by DHCP. If this is the case you successfully resetted the router. If not repeat from the beginning or do this if you like.
Basically the router now works like after the initial flash to OWrt. Now you have to configure the internet connection and probably you want to install LUCI. After that open your browser, connect to 192.168.1.1 and log in with the data you entered via telnet.
Note: 30 dBm tx power can't be set if your wireless country is any that allow higher channel than channel 11 (i.e. Viet Nam). If you encounter this situation, I suggest you should change your country to 00 - World
1. First, install jow's reghack, follow those instructions (for ar71xx): http://luci.subsignal.org/~jow/reghack/README.txt
2. Flash this OpenWrt image with ART partition unlocked: https://goo.gl/InZONA
3. Download this hacked ART image: https://goo.gl/bz8oo1
4. Make a backup of your original ART:
dd if=/dev/mtd4 of=/tmp/orig_art.bin
5. Use SCP to transfer it to a safe place, then delete it from /tmp folder.
6. Transfer the hacked ART to the /tmp folder via SCP.
7. Run:
mtd -r write /tmp/artHACKED.bin art
8. Your router will reboot. After that, you will be able to set 30 dBm tx power.

Just be sure that the files are saved. To edit the files on windows, either use vi on the openwrt, check for a tutorial online, the basic commands are not difficult; or use winscp with a SCP connection and edit the files with an editor on windows. Then reboot the system and check for the wifi connection.
Remember that if the "client" wifi doesn't work, won't work also the repeater wifi network.
The default wireless configuration is different, for example
there is no: option path 'platform/qca953x_wmac' .
Further investigation shown that the wireless is able to provide an AP
if connected to whatever interface defined in /etc/config/network,
while for 'sta' mode (a wifi client) it is possible to obtain it only if
the interface connected to the wireless configuration is not using the bridge option nor having a relation to a switch with more than one port (for example if with eth0 we define a switch over multiple ports) Note: would be better to check this statement more thoroughly.
For example, with the configuration reported above for barrier breaker, the wlan is linked with the wan side, that is using no switch interfaces nor bridge protocol. This works too for 12.09.

If everything goes ok, you should see in Syslog not only the button events, but also succesful WPS authentication.
Read this howto to use buttons on TP-Link
Found in WR741ND wiki page and coppied. It works on WR841ND too.
(Thanks to obsy) Wifi toggle by QSS button Simply create a new file called 01onoff in /etc/hotplug.d/button/
vi /etc/hotplug.d/button/01onoff
and copy these lines inside (remember to push 'i' for insert)
#!/bin/sh
[ "$BUTTON" = "wps" ] && [ "$ACTION" = "pressed" ] && {

[ $SW == '0' ] && uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=1
[ $SW == '0' ] || uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=0
wifi

Getting serial console is pretty standard fare. You need a MAX323 or similar level-shifter. The pinout on the router is RX - TX - GND - +5V (Power connector).
If you do not have serial port on your PC, use Nokia CA-42 data USB cable.

Check whether eth0/eth1 are switched! In failsafe mode, you have to connect to the wan port.
Forum member pepe2k made a modification of U-Boot 1.1.4 for Qualcomm Atheros SoCs based devices (the project is still being developed, so new devices and SoCs will be supported in the future). Up to date information, sources can be found on official GitHub repository and binary images here.
This modification started from wr703n-uboot-with-web-failsafe project, but supports more devices, all modern web browsers, has a lot of improvements and other modifications (like U-Boot NetConsole, custom commands, overclocking possibilities etc.).
More information:
Tested on WR841n_v5.1
Attention. Firmware of TP-Link TL-MR 3420 is coming to WR841ND v7.2 - verified. (OpenWrt Firmware Attitude Adjustment (r28380) / LuCI Trunk (trunk+svn7612)) But working usb port has not been verified. Probably enough to use this firmware, but do not compile a new one :)
Soldering (wire with red accent means D+). R185 and R183 can be shorted then D+/D- will appear in J1.
To get working USB the new firmware build is required. Files to edit are listed below:
1. Edit file target/linux/ar71xx/files/arch/mips/ar71xx/mach-tl-wr841nd.c
Add line #include "dev-usb.h" after line #include "dev-leds-gpio.h"
Add line ar71xx_add_device_usb(); before line ar71xx_add_device_mdio(0x0);
2. Edit file target/linux/ar71xx/files/arch/mips/ar71xx/setup.c
Add line ar71xx_pll_wr(0x08, 0x00001030); before line ar71xx_detect_mem_size();
3. Edit file target/linux/ar71xx/files/arch/mips/ar71xx/Kconfig:
config AR71XX_MACH_TL_WR841N_V1
bool "TP-LINK TL-WR841N v1 support"
select AR71XX_DEV_M25P80

select AR71XX_DEV_DSA
select AR71XX_DEV_GPIO_BUTTONS
select AR71XX_DEV_LEDS_GPIO
select AR71XX_DEV_USB
default n
For newer version of trunk (as of 2013 March) 1.Edit file target/linux/ar71xx/files/arch/mips/ath79/mach-tl-wr841n.c
Add line #include "dev-usb.h" after line #include "dev-leds-gpio.h"
Add line ath79_register_usb(); after line ath79_register_eth(0);
2. Edit file target/linux/ar71xx/generic/profiles/tp-link.mk, add packages in the definition of TLWR841 as following.
define Profile/TLWR841 NAME:=TP-LINK TL-WR841N/ND PACKAGES:=kmod-usb-core kmod-usb2 kmod-ledtrig-usbdev endef
i.e L7805 with 470uF and 100uF can be used to obtain 5V from the stock power supply.
NOTE: in case of v5.1 sections for WR741N instead of WR841N_V1 have to be edited (Kconfig, mach-tl-wr741nd.c).
tested with WR841 v7.1 and trunk revision 30430. New patch for rev. 32461 available
Hardware mod is on pictures, nothing changed.
Kernel mod is different, because new kernel version is released in revision 30430.
Here is patch for kernel 3.3: http://mysicka.ics.muni.cz/openwrt/usb-patch-final.patch
Apply this patch and build…
I haven't tested this, but it appears to show where the USB D+ and D- pins can be found on the AR9341: http://ge.tt/m/2IKNi5l/
