Wow.
I wonder how you could have figured this out (except via folklore).
Since it is a kernel module that is missing the nls-* modules, the only ways of reporting the problem are: EWHATEVER return code (rather non-specific) or logging (would have to be rate-limited). I guess neither of these were used.
Can you fix the web page that gave you the first hints to include the lore about nls-*?
I remember going through this very same series of events as Giles. It was a few years ago with the TP-Link MR-3020, which I was setting up as a portable PXE boot server. I was going through various parts of the wiki on that, but found the need information was covered in comprehensive document. Ah yes, this looks to be the one. http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/storage Also relevant, but assumes ext a linux-ish file systems, so doesn't mention VFAT or it's NLS needs. http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/usb.storage -- Scott Sullivan
