It's a 4G Cat.20 router used by Vodafone Italy (called Vodafone FWA)
and Vodafone DE\T-Mobile PL (called GigaCube).
Modem is a MiniPCIe-to-USB based on Snapdragon X24,
it supports 4CA aggregation.
There are currently two hardware revisions, which
differ on the 5Ghz radio:
AT1 = QCA9984 5Ghz Radio on PCI-E bus
AT2 = IPQ4019 5Ghz Radio inside IPQ4019 like 2.4Ghz
Device specification
--------------------

Button: 2 (Reset/WPS)
LEDs: 3 external leds: Network (white or red), Wifi, Power and 1 internal (blue)
Power: 12 VDC, 1 A
Connector type: Barrel
Bootloader: U-Boot
Installation
------------
1. Place OpenWrt initramfs image for the device on a TFTP
in the server's root. This example uses Server IP: 192.168.0.2
2. Connect serial console (115200,8n1) to serial connector
GND (which is right next to the thing with MF289F MIMO-V1.0), RX, TX
(refer to this image: https://ibb.co/31Gngpr).
3. Connect TFTP server to RJ-45 port (WAN/LAN1).
4. Stop in u-Boot (using ESC button) and run u-Boot commands:
setenv serverip 192.168.0.2
setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.1
set fdt_high 0x85000000
tftp openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-zte_mf289f-initramfs-fit-zImage.itb
bootm $loadaddr
5. Please make backup of original partitions, if you think about revert to
stock, specially mtd16 (Web UI) and mtd17 (rootFS).
Use /tmp as temporary storage and do:
WEB PARITION
--------------------------------------
cat /dev/mtd16 > /tmp/mtd16.bin
scp /tmp/mtd16.bin root@YOURSERVERIP:/
rm /tmp/mtd16.bin
ROOT PARITION
--------------------------------------
cat /dev/mtd17 > /tmp/mtd17.bin
scp /tmp/mtd17.bin root@YOURSERVERIP:/
rm /tmp/mtd17.bin
6. Login via ssh or serial and remove stock partitions
(default IP 192.168.0.1):
# this can return an error, if ubi was attached before
# or rootfs part was erased before.
ubiattach -m 17
# it could return error if rootfs part was erased before
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N ubi_rootfs
# some devices doesn't have it
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N ubi_rootfs_data
7. download and install image via sysupgrade -n
(either use wget/scp to copy the mf289f's squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
to the device's /tmp directory)
sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-...-zte_mf289f-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Sometimes it could print ubi attach error, but please ignore it
if process goes forward.

- LEDs/Keys : 11x, 6x
- UART : through-hole on PCB
- J1: 3.3V, TX, RX, GND from tri-angle marking
- 115200n8
- Power : 12 VDC, 2.5 A
Flash instruction using initramfs image:
1. Prepare TFTP server with the IP address 192.168.132.100 and place the
initramfs image to TFTP directory with the name "C0A88401.img"
2. Boot NCP-HG100/Cellular and interrupt after the message
"Hit any key to stop autoboot: 2"
3. Perform the following commands and set bootcmd to allow booting from
eMMC
setenv bootcmd "mmc read 0x84000000 0x2e22 0x4000 && bootm 0x84000000"
saveenv
4. Perform the following command to load/boot the OpenWrt initramfs image
tftpboot && bootm
5. On the initramfs image, perform sysupgrade with the sysupgrade image
(if needed, backup eMMC partitions by dd command and download to
other place before performing sysupgrade)
6. Wait for ~120 seconds to complete flashing
Known issues:
- There are no drivers for audio-related chips/functions in Linux Kernel
and OpenWrt, they cannot be used.
- There is no driver for MINI54FDE Micro-Controller Unit, customized for
this device by the firmware in the MCU. This chip controls the
following functions, but they cannot be controlled in OpenWrt.
- RGB LED
- Fan
this fan is controlled automatically by MCU by default, without
driver
- Thermal Sensors (2x)
- Currently, there is no driver or tool for CY8C4014LQI and cannot be
controlled. It cannot be exited from "booting mode" and moved to "normal
op mode" after booting. And also, the 4x buttons (mic mute, vol down,
vol up, alexa trigger) connected to the IC cannot be controlled.
- it can be exited from "booting mode" by installing and executing
i2cset command:
opkg update
opkg install i2c-tools
i2cset -y 1 0x14 0xf 1
- There is a connection issue on the control by uqmi for the WWAN module.
But modemmanager can be used without any issues and the use of it is
recommended.
- With the F2FS format, too many errors are reported on erasing eMMC
partition "rootfs_data" while booting:

Note:
- The primary uart is shared for debug console and Z-Wave chip. The
function is switched by GPIO15 (Linux: 427).
value:
1: debug console
0: Z-Wave
- NCP-HG100/Cellular has 2x os-image pairs in eMMC.
- 0:HLOS, rootfs
- 0:HLOS_1, rootfs_1
In OpenWrt, the first image pair is used.
- "bootipq" command in U-Boot requires authentication with signed-image
by default. To boot unsigned image of OpenWrt, use "mmc read" and
"bootm" command instead.
- This support is for "Cellular" variant of NCP-HG100 and not tested on
"WLAN" (non-cellular) variant.
- The board files of ipq-wifi may also be used in "WLAN" variant of
NCP-HG100, but unconfirmed and add files as for "Cellular" variant.
- "NET" LED is used to indicate WWAN status in stock firmware.
- There is no MAC address information in the label on the case, use the
address included in UUID in the label as "label-MAC" instead.
- The "CLOUD" LEDs are partially used for indication of system status in
stock firmware, use they as status LEDs in OpenWrt instead of RGB LED
connected to the MCU.

The image builds for Linksys EA6350 v3, EA8300, and MR8300 currently

these boards for now.
Signed-off-by: Sungbo Eo <mans0n@gorani.run>
The image build process was modifying the generated IMAGE_KERNEL to
append rootfs information (crc). This caused:
- sysupgrade & factory images to contain 2 times the root.squashfs
information due to both modifying the same IMAGE_KERNEL.
- the generated imagebuilder to contain an erroneous IMAGE_KERNEL that
contained references to an unexisting root.squashfs (the one from
previous cause). The RTL30VW wasn't therefore able to boot the
generated images as they contained checksums from non existing rootfs.
This commit makes sure to use a temporary IMAGE_KERNEL to append the
rootfs information for both factory and sysupgrade images.

Pakedge WR-1 is a dual-band wireless router.
Specification
SoC: Qualcomm Atheros IPQ4018
RAM: 256 MB DDR3
Flash: 32 MB SPI NOR
WIFI: 2.4 GHz 2T2R integrated
5 GHz 2T2R integrated
Ethernet: 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps QCA8075
USB: 1x 2.0
LEDS: 8x (3 GPIO controlled, 5 connected to switch)
Buttons: 1x GPIO controlled
UART: pin header J5
1. 3.3V, 2. GND, 3. TX, 4. RX
baud: 115200, parity: none, flow control: none
Installation
1. Rename initramfs image to:
openwrt-ipq806x-qcom-ipq40xx-ap.dk01.1-c1-fit-uImage-initramfs.itb
and copy it to USB flash drive with FAT32 file system.
2. Connect USB flash drive to the router and apply power while pressing
reset button. Hold the button, on the lates bootloader version, when
Power and WiFi-5 LEDs will start blinking release it. For the older
bootloader holding it for 15 seconds should suffice.
3. Now the router boots the initramfs image, at some point (close to one
minute) the Power LED will start blinking, when stops, router is fully
booted.
4. Connect to one of LAN ports and use SSH to open the shell at
192.168.1.1.
5. ATTENTION! now backup the mtd8 and mtd9 partitions, it's necessary if,
at some point, You want to go back to original firmware. The firmware
provided by manufacturer on its site is encrypted and U-Boot accepts
only decrypted factory images, so there's no way to restore original
firmware.
6. If the backup is prepared, transfer the sysupgrade image to the router
and use 'sysupgrade' command to flash it.
7. After successful flashing router will reboot. At some point the Power
LED will start blinking, wait till it stops, then router is ready for
configuration.

Adjusting dts will cause a rebuild of whole kernel as the buildroot
considers this a part of kernel source. It's a royal PITA when trying to
prepare support for new device, since this takes a lot of time on slower
systems. As it stands, buildroot itself, with own rule, also compiles
dtbs and the results are $(KDIR)/image-$(DEVICE_DTS).dtb. With setting
DEVICE_DTS_DIR to directory holding the device dts (similarly to some
other targets), buildroot doesn't consider changed dts as part of kernel
source and rebuilds only dtb. This really speeds up development. And
since the kernel built dts are no longer used, drop the paches adding
dtses to its build.

Notes
-----
There does not appear to be a way to trigger TFTP recovery without entering
U-Boot. The device must be opened to access the serial console in order to
first flash OpenWrt onto a device from factory.
The device has automatic recovery backed by a second set of partitions on
the larger of the two SPI flash ICs. Both the primary and secondary must
be flashed to prevent accidental rollback to "factory" after 3 failed boot
attempts.

Aruba deploys a BDF in the root filesystem, however this matches the one
used for the DK04 reference board.
The board-specific BDFs are built into the kernel. The AP-365 shows
sinificant degraded performance with increased range when used with the
reference BDF.
Replace the BDF with the one extracted from Arubas kernel.

with current images, the device is no longer booting.
It gets stuck in the bootloader with "Config not available"
and drops to the uboot shell.
|flash_type: 0
|Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0
|SF: Detected MX25L12805D with page size 4 KiB, total 16 MiB
|Config not availabale
|(IPQ40xx) #
This is because the default bootcmd "bootipq" will only read
the first four MiB of the kernel image. With 5.10 the gzip'd
kernel is slightly larger. So the part of the FIT image which
had the configuration is cut off. Hence it can't find it.
To update the bootcmd, you have to attach the serial console
again and enter the following commands into the boot prompt:
# setenv bootcmd "sf probe; sf read 84000000 180000 600000; bootm"
# saveenv
# run bootcmd
This will allow booting kernels with up to six MiB. This also
allows us to drop the DEVICE_DTS_CONFIG hack we had to use.
Note:
uboot doesn't support LZMA. It fails with:
"Unimplemented compression type 3"

eth0: Partition 0:CONFIG Offset: 0x0
eth1: = eth0 + 1
radio0 (2.4 GHz): = eth0 + 2
radio1 (5.0 GHz): = eth0 + 3
Label MAC address is from eth0.
The LED/GPIO controller needs a separate kernel driver to function.
The driver was extracted from the Teltonika GPL sources and can be
found at following feed: https://github.com/0xFelix/teltonika-rutx-openwrt
USB detection of the bluetooth interface is sometimes a bit flaky. When
not detected power cycle the device. When the bluetooth interface was
detected properly it can be used with bluez / bluetoothctl.
Flash instructions via stock web interface (sysupgrade based):
1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.1.100
2. Push reset button and power on the device
3. Open u-boot HTTP recovery at http://192.168.1.1
4. Upload latest stock firmware and wait until the device is rebooted
5. Open stock web interface at http://192.168.1.1
6. Set some password so the web interface is happy
7. Go to firmware upgrade settings
8. Choose
openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-teltonika_rutx10-squashfs-nand-factory.ubi
9. Set 'Keep settings' to off
10. Click update, when warned that it is not a signed image proceed
Return to stock firmware:
1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.1.100
2. Push reset button and power on the device
3. Open u-boot HTTP recovery at http://192.168.1.1
4. Upload latest stock firmware and wait until the device is rebooted
Note: The DTS expects OpenWrt to be running from the second rootfs
partition. u-boot on these devices hot-patches the DTS so running from the
first rootfs partition should also be possible. If you want to be save follow
the instructions above. u-boot HTTP recovery restores the device so that when
flashing OpenWrt from stock firmware it is flashed to the second rootfs
partition and the DTS matches.

* SOC: Qualcomm Atheros IPQ4019 (717 MHz)
* RAM: 512 MiB
* Flash: 16 MiB (NOR) + 128 MiB (NAND)
* Ethernet: 5 x 10/100/1000 (4 x LAN, 1 x WAN)
* Wireless:
- 2.4 GHz b/g/n Qualcomm Atheros IPQ4019
- 5 GHz a/n/ac Qualcomm Atheros IPQ4019
* USB: 1 x USB 3.0
* LED: 4 x LAN, 1 x WAN, 2 x WiFi, 1 x Power (All Blue LED)
* Input: 1 x reset
* 1 x MicroSD card slot
* Serial console: 115200bps, pinheader J2 on PCB
* Power: DC 12V 2A
* 1 x Unpopulated mPCIe Slot (see below how to connect it)
* 1 x Unpopulated Sim Card Slot
Installation:
1. Access to tty console via UART serial
2. Enter failsafe mode and mount rootfs
<https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/troubleshooting/failsafe_and_factory_reset>
3. Edit inittab to enable shell on tty console
`sed -i 's/#ttyM/ttyM/' /etc/inittab`
4. Reboot and upload `-nand-factory.bin` to the router (using wget)
5. Use `sysupgrade` command to install
Another installation method is to hijack the upgrade server domain
of stock firmware, because it's using insecure http.
This commit is based on @LGA1150(at GitHub)'s work
<a4932c8d5a>
With some changes:
1. Added `qpic_bam` node in dts. I don't know much about this,
but I observed other dtses have this node.
2. Removed `ldo` node under `sd_0_pinmux`, because `ldo` cause SD card not
working. This fix is from
<51143b4c75>
3. Removed the 32MB NOR variant.
4. Removed `cd-gpios` in `sdhci` node, because it's reported that it makes
wlan2g led light up.
5. Added ethphy led config in dts.
6. Changed nand partition label from `rootfs` to `ubi`.
About the 128MiB variant: The stock bootloader sets size of nand to 64MiB.
But most of this devices have 128MiB nand. If you want to use all 128MiB,
you need to modify the `MIBIB` data of bootloader. More details can be
found on github:

the SRS60 not. The RBR50 and RBS50 (sold together as RBK50) have a
different external shape but they have an USB 2.0 port on the back.
This patch has been tested only on SRS60 and RBR50, but should work
on SRR60 and RBS50.

Everything works correctly.
Installation
------------
These routers have a dual partition system. However this firmware works
only on boot partition 1 and the OEM web interface will always flash on
the partition currently not booted.
The following steps will use the SRS60 firmware, but you have to chose
the right firmware for your router.
There are 2 ways to install Openwrt the first time:
1) Using NMRPflash
1. Download nmrpflash (https://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflash)
2. Put the openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_srs60-squashfs-factory.img
file in the same folder of the nmrpflash executable
3. Connect your pc to the router using the port near the power button.
4. Run "nmrpflash -i XXX -f openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_srs60-squashfs-factory.img".
Replace XXX with your network interface (can be identified by
running "nmrpflash -L")
5. Power on the router and wait for the flash to complete. After about
a minute the router should boot directly to Openwrt. If nothing
happens try to reboot the router. If you have problems flashing
try to set "10.164.183.253" as your computer IP address
2) Without NMRPflash
The OEM web interface will always flash on the partition currently not
booted, so to flash OpenWrt for the first time you have to switch to
boot partition 2 and then flash the factory image directly from the OEM
web interface.
To switch on partition 2 you have to enable telnet first:
1. Go to http://192.168.1.250/debug.htm and check "Enable Telnet".
2. Connect through telent ("telnet 192.168.1.250") and login using
admin/password.
To read the current boot_part:
artmtd -r boot_part
To write the new boot_part:
artmtd -w boot_part 02
Then reboot the router and then check again the current booted
partition
Now that you are on boot partition 2 you can flash the factory Openwrt
image directly from the OEM web interface.
Restore OEM Firmware
--------------------
1. Download the stock firmware from official netgear support.
2. Follow the nmrpflash procedure like above, using the official
Netgear firmware (for example SRS60-V2.2.1.210.img)
nmrpflash -i XXX -f SRS60-V2.2.1.210.img
Notes
-----
1) You can check and edit the boot partition in the Uboot shell using
the UART connection.
"boot_partition_show" shows the current boot partition
"boot_partition_set 1" sets the current boot partition to 1

In the "ipq40xx: switch to Kernel 5.10" discussion at GitHub,
Adrian noted [0] that these GL.iNet Conexa series devices,
GL-B1300 and GL-S1300 failed their image generation [1] as their gzipped
uImage kernel went above 4096k.
While notifying the vendor about this problem [2], I tested all U-Boot
releases from GL.iNet:
- they really fail to boot kernel above 4096k
- they don't support lzma: "Unimplemented compression type 3"
- but they boot zImage
Using zImage (xz compression) the kernel is 2909k which is
more than a megabyte away from the KERNEL_SIZE := 4096k limit.
The gzip compressed version would be 4116k.

When support for Luma WRTQ-329ACN was added, the instructions for

Unfortunately the OpenWrt buildroot system omits packages from
DEVICE_PACKAGES when CONFIG_TARGET_MULTI_PROFILE,
CONFIG_TARGET_PER_DEVICE_ROOTFS, CONFIG_TARGET_ALL_PROFILES are set. In
result the official images are without tools mentioned in the
instruction. The workoround for the fashing would be installing
uboot-envtools when booted with initramfs image, but not always the
access to internet is available. The other method would be to issue the
necesary command in U-Boot environment but some serial terminals default
configuration don't work well with pasting lines longer than 80 chars.
Therefore add uboot-envtools to default packages, which adds really
small flash footprint to rootfs, where increased size usually is not an
issue.

Installation via Stock Web Interface:
BTW: The default factory console/web interface login user/password are
admin/password.
In the web interface navigating to Management - Maintenance - Upgrade -
'Firmware Upgrade' will show you what is currently installed e.g.:
Manage Firmware
Current Firmware Version: V5.0.10.2
Backup Firmware Version: V1.2.5.11
Under 'Upgrade Options' choose Local (alternatively SFTP would be
available) then click/select 'Browse File' on the right side, choose
openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-squashfs-nand-factory.tar
and hit the Upgrade button below. After a minute or two your browser
should indicate completion printing 'Firmware update complete.' and
'Rebooting AP...'.
Note that OpenWrt will use the WAN PoE port as actual WAN port
defaulting to DHCP client but NOT allowing LuCI access, use LAN port
defaulting to 192.168.1.1/24 to access LuCI.
Installation via TFTP Requiring Serial U-Boot Access:
Connect to the device's serial port and hit any key to stop autoboot.
Upload and boot the initramfs based OpenWrt image as follows:
(IPQ40xx) # setenv serverip 192.168.1.1
(IPQ40xx) # setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.2
(IPQ40xx) # tftpboot openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb
(IPQ40xx) # bootm
Note: This only runs OpenWrt from RAM and has not installed anything
to flash as of yet. One may permanently install OpenWrt as follows:
Check the MTD device number of the active partition:
root@OpenWrt:/# dmesg | grep 'set to be root filesystem'
[ 1.010084] mtd: device 9 (rootfs) set to be root filesystem
Upload the factory image ending with .ubi to /tmp (e.g. using scp or
tftp). Then flash the image as follows (substituting the 9 in mtd9
below with whatever number reported above):
root@OpenWrt:/# ubiformat /dev/mtd9 -f /tmp/openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-squashfs-nand-factory.ubi
And reboot.
Dual Image Configuration:
The default U-Boot boot command bootipq uses the U-Boot environment
variables primary/secondary to decide which image to boot. E.g.
primary=0, secondary=3800000 uses rootfs while primary=3800000,
secondary=0 uses rootfs_1.
Switching their values changes the active partition. E.g. from within
U-Boot:
(IPQ40xx) # setenv primary 0
(IPQ40xx) # setenv secondary 3800000
(IPQ40xx) # saveenv
Or from a OpenWrt userspace serial/SSH console:
fw_setenv primary 0
fw_setenv secondary 3800000
Note that if you install two copies of OpenWrt then each will have its
independent configuration not like when switching partitions on the
stock firmware.
BTW: The kernel log shows which boot partition is active:
[ 2.439050] ubi0: attached mtd9 (name "rootfs", size 56 MiB)
vs.
[ 2.978785] ubi0: attached mtd10 (name "rootfs_1", size 56 MiB)
Note: After 3 failed boot attempts it automatically switches partition.

Since generic images have been split to their own
Makefile boards are showing up twice in menuconfig
as $(eval $(call BuildImage)) was not dropped from
the new generic.mk.
Hence $(eval $(call BuildImage)) was being called
twice.
So, lets simply drop it from generic.mk.
