The ath11k-firmware package must therefore point to the new repository
before the old one is no longer accessible.

An populated serial header is onboard, format is
1.25mm 4p (DF13A-4P-1.25H)
RX/TX is working, bootwait is active, secure boot is not
enabled.
The root password of the stock firmware is unknown,
but failsafe mode can be entered to reset the password.
Installation Instructions:
- obtain serial access
- stop auto boot (press "4", Entr boot command line
interface)
- setenv active_fw 0 (to boot from the primary rootfs,
or set to 1 to boot from the secondary rootfs
partition)
- saveenv
- tftpboot the initramfs image
- bootm
- copy
openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-netgear_wax214-squashfs-factory.ubi
to the device
- write the image to the NAND:
- cat /proc/mtd and look for rootfs partition (should
be mtd11,
or mtd12 if you choose active_fw 1)
- ubiformat /dev/mtd11 -f -y
openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-netgear_wax214-squashfs-factory.ubi
- reboot
Note: the firmware is senao-based. But I was unable to build
a valid senao-header into the image.
Maybe they changed the header format and senaoFW isn't
working any more.

OpenWRT Installation
1. Simplest way is just do upgrade from webpage with *factory.img
2. You can also do it with standard tool for Netgear's debricking - NMPRFlash
3. Most advanced way is to open device , connect to UART console and :
- Prepare OpenWrt initramfs image in TFTP server root (server IP 192.168.1.10)
- Connect serial console (115200,8n1) to UART connector
- Connect TFTP server to RJ-45 port
- Stop in u-Boot and run u-Boot command:
> setenv serverip 192.168.1.10
> set fdt_high 0x85000000
> tftpboot 0x83000000 openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_lbr20-initramfs-zImage.itb
> bootm 0x83000000
- Login via ssh
- upload or download *sysupgrade.bin ( like wget ... or scp transfer)
- Install image via "sysupgrade -n" (like “sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_lbr20-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin”)
Back to Stock
- Download firmware from official Netgear's webpage , it will be *.img file after decompressing.
- Use NMRPFlash tool ( detailed insructions on project page https://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflash )
Open the case
- Unscrew nuts and remove washers from antenna's conectors.
- There are two Torx T10 screws under the label next to antenna conectors. You have to unglue this label from left and right corner to get it
- Two parts of shell covers will slide out from eachother , you have to unglue two small rubber pads and namplate sticker on bottom to do that.
- PCB is screwed with 4Pcs of Torx T10 screws
- Before lifting up PCB remove pigtiles for LTE antennas and release them from PCB and radiator (black and white wires)
- On other side of PCB ,in left bottom corner there is already soldered with 4 pins UART connector for console. Counting from left it is +3,3V , TX , RX ,GND (reffer to this picture: https://i.ibb.co/Pmrf9KB/20240116-103524.jpg )

Before you flash, please check your mtd partitions where mtdX is the right mtd rootfs partition.
# cat /proc/mtd (To check MTD partitions)
# ubiformat /dev/mtd19 -y -f /tmp/openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-netgear_wax620-squashfs-factory.ubi
10. Set active_fw to 0
# /usr/sbin/fw_setenv active_fw 0
11. Reboot the AP and your done
# reboot
```

The ZTE MF287 requires a different board calibration file for ath10k than
the ZTE MF287+. The two devices receive their own DTS, thus the device tree
is slightly refactored.

* Power: 19 VDC, 3.1 A
Installation:
* Flashing OpenWrt is done in two steps:
a) Flash *-squashfs-web-ui-factory.img from stock UI (thanks to @wangyu-).
This writes an initramfs based OpenWrt image onto the RAX120v2
b) From OpenWrt flash the *-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin using LuCI or the commandline
* U-Boot allows booting an initramfs image via TFTP:
- Set ip of your PC to 192.168.1.100
- At the serial console interrupt boot at "Hit any key to stop autoboot:"
- In u-boot run `tftpsrv`
- On your PC send the OpenWrt initramfs image:
tftp 192.168.1.1 -m binary -c put openwrt-ipq807x-generic-netgear_rax120v2-initramfs-uImage.itb
Make 5G Aquantia phy work:
For the 5G port labeled 'lan5' to work a firmware is needed. This can be loaded in
u-boot by writing the firmware to the correct mtd partition.
The firmware file found in the Netgear stock firmware under /lib/firmware/ named
'AQR-G3_v4.3.C-AQR_DNI_DR-EQ35AX8-R-prov1_ID23888_VER1311.cld' is needed and has to
be converted to a MBN file.
The `mkheader.py` script used here can be found in the Netgear V1.2.8.40 GPL source,
under 'git_home/u-boot.git/tools/mkheader.py'
Convert the CLD file to MBN using:
$ python2 mkheader.py 0x44000000 0x13 <*.cld file> aqr_4.3.C.mbn
This MBN file can then be flashed to the MTD partition to be used by u-boot.
The necessary files can also be found in
https://github.com/boretom/openwrt-fork/tree/rax120v2/aquantia-firmware
* Write MBN file to MTD partition to be loaded automatically by u-boot:
U-boot automatically tries to load the firmware from nand at address 0x7e00000 which
corresponds to `/dev/mtd25` in OpenWrt.
- find ETHPHYFW partition while running OpenWrt (expected: /dev/mtd25)
$ fgrep -i 'ethphyfw' /proc/mtd
mtd25: 00080000 00020000 "ethphyfw
- copy mbn file to /tmp/ folder of the router
$ scp aqr-v4.3.C.mbn 192.168.1.1:/tmp/
- write mbn file to ethphyfw partition
$ mtd write /tmp/aqr_v4.3.C.mbn /dev/mtd25
Revert to stock firmware:
* Flash the stock firmware to the bootloader using TFTP/NMRP.
