The Ubiquiti UniFi 6 Lite does not correctly align the FDT by always
setting fdt_high to 0xffffffff when invoking the bootubnt command.
Work around this issue by loading the DTB to a valid,aligned address, so
the bootloader does not have to relocate the FDT automatically.
Note: The device does read the kernel before invoking bootm on the FIT
image to 0x86000000.

TFTP Installation (initramfs image only & recommend):
1. Set local tftp server IP: 192.168.1.254 and NetMask: 255.255.255.0
2. Rename initramfs-kernel.bin to "factory.bin" and put it in the root
directory of the tftp server. (tftpd64 is a good choice for Windows)
3. Start the TFTP server, plug in the power supply, and wait for the
system to boot.
4. Backup "firmware" partition and rename it to "firmware.bin", we need
it to back to stock firmware.
5. Use "fw_printenv" command to list envs.
If "firmware_select=2" is observed then set u-boot enviroment:
/# fw_setenv firmware_select 1
6. Apply sysupgrade.bin in OpenWrt LuCI.
Web UI Installation:
1. Apply update by uploading initramfs-factory.bin to the web UI.
2. Use "fw_printenv" command to list envs.
If "firmware_select=2" is observed then set u-boot enviroment:
/# fw_setenv firmware_select 1
3. Apply squashfs-sysupgrade.bin in OpenWrt LuCI.
Recovery to stock firmware:
a. Upload "firmware.bin" to OpenWrt /tmp, then execute:
/# mtd -r write /tmp/firmware.bin firmware
b. We can also write factory image "UploadBrush-bin.img" to firmware
partition to recovery. Upload image file to /tmp, then execute:
/# mtd erase firmware
/# mtd -r write /tmp/UploadBrush-bin.img firmware
How to extract stock firmware image:
Download stock firmware, then use openssl:
openssl aes-256-cbc -d -salt -in [Downloaded_Firmware] \
-out "firmware.tar.tgz" -k QiLunSmartWL

Add UIMAGE_NAME and UIMAGE_MAGIC to allow users to directly install
initramfs-kernel.bin from the stock firmware Web UI. At the same time,
this change makes it possible to boot OpenWrt with the official u-boot.
Notice:
Since the stock firmware is based on OpenWrt and the configuration
will be retained by default during the upgrade process, so we must use
initramfs-kernel.bin to do a initial installation. After the system
restarts, install sysupgrade.bin and do not retain any configuration.

* Ethernet: builtin
* LED: Power, WAN, LAN 1-4, WiFi
* Buttons: Reset (GPIO 13)
* UART: Serial console (57600 8n1)
* USB: 1 x USB2
Installation:
------------
The router comes with OpenWrt 14.07 built with MTK SDK. However, as the
modem is provided by carriers, so the web interface is highly minimized and
only contains a static page with no interaction options.
There are two possible ways to gain the access.
1) Open the shell and use a UART2USB convert to gain TTY access. Please
notice you have to remove resistance R54 at the back of the board
otherwise you won't be able to input anything.
2) Use built-in backdoor. Access http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/_/testxst to
start dropbear service at port 9122. Be warned the software is super
old and only diffie-hellman-group1-sha1, diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,
kexguess2@matt.ucc.asn.au is support, you may not be able to connect it
with an up-to-date ssh client.
After you can control the device, flash the firmware as usual. Here are
some hints for that.
Option 1 (via original firmware):
1) Setup HTTP server on your computer, for example:
python3 -m http.server
2) Connect to the route and flash:
cd /tmp
wget http://<your-computer-host>/<your-firmware-name>
mtd -r write <your-firmware-name> firmware
Option 2 (replacing u-boot via breed):
1) Download breed-mt7620-reset13.bin from https://breed.hackpascal.net/
2) Setup HTTP server on your computer, for example:
python3 -m http.server
You can skip this step if your breed is already accessible from HTTP,
since the original wget does not support HTTPS.
3) Connect to the route and flash breed:
cd /tmp
wget http://<your-computer-host>/breed-mt7620-reset13.bin
mtd write breed-mt7620-reset13.bin Bootloader
4) Reboot. Hold reset key or press any key in TTY to enter breed.
5) Access breed web interface (http://192.168.1.1/). Choose the flash
layout to be 0x50000 and flash new firmware.
MAC addresses:
-------------
There are three MACs stored in factory, as in MT7620A reference design:
source address usage
0x4 label WLAN
0x28 label MAC 1
0x2e label + 1 MAC 2
However, the OEM firmware only uses one single MAC (label) for all
interfaces, probably a misconfiguration.

* USB: 1 x USB2
SPECIAL NOTES:
-------------
Problem: WiFi is super weak, but SSID beacons seems to be right.
Solve: Change 36h in factory partition (namely 0xf60036) to be 0x0.
Explain: Clearly Netgear have different ideas on how EEPROM is used. Bit 2
of 36h indicates the presence of External LNA for 11g (2.4 GHz) band,
which seems to be incorrectly set by Netgear (originally 0x04). Lifting it
solves the problem of weak RX signal.
Installation:
------------
There are two possible ways to install the firmware. Flashing via web
interface of original firmware is not tested due to a broken firmware.
1) Open the shell and use a UART2USB convert to gain TTY access (TP7: RXD,
TP9: TXD, TP10: GND). Please notice you have to remove resistance R54
next to TP7 otherwise you won't be able to input anything.
2) Use well-known Netgear debug switch. Access
http://192.168.168.1/setup.cgi?todo=debug to start telnet service
(username: root, password: <none>).
Please back up firmware if you want to go back to the original.
After you can control the device, flash the firmware as usual. Here are
some hints for that.
Option 1 (via nmrpflash):
1) Download nmrpflash from https://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflash
2) Use *-factory.img and flash:
nmrpflash -L
nmrpflash -i net* -f <your-firmware-name>
3) Turn off then turn on the device, wait it finishing flash.
Option 2 (replacing u-boot via breed):
1) Download breed-mt7620-reset1.bin from https://breed.hackpascal.net/
2) Setup HTTP server on your computer, for example:
python3 -m http.server
You can skip this step if your breed is already accessible from HTTP,
since the original wget does not support HTTPS.
3) Connect to the route and flash breed:
cd /tmp
wget http://<your-computer-host>/breed-mt7620-reset1.bin
dd if=breed-mt7620-reset1.bin of=/dev/mtdblock0 bs=64k
4) Reboot. Hold reset key or press any key in TTY to enter breed.
5) Access breed web interface (http://192.168.1.1/). Choose memory layout
to be 0x40000 and flash new firmware.
Remark:
------
As a "Range Extender", it has a switch to switch between Wired mode (GPIO
21 low) and Wireless mode (GPIO 20 low), which is not implemented in this
patch. However, the router will be turned off when it switches to the
middle, which makes this switch much less useful.
MAC addresses:
-------------
The OEM firmware uses one single MAC for all interfaces, located at
0xf700b0.

Compatibility mode is used to guarantee the connection of old devices
that only support WiFi4 or WiFi5.
TFTP + TTL Installation:
Although a TTL connection is required for installation, we do not need
to tear down it. We can find the TTL port from the cooling hole at the
bottom. It is located below LAN3 and the pins are defined as follows:
|LAN1|LAN2|LAN3|----|WAN|
--------------------
|GND|TX|RX|VCC|
1. Set tftp server IP to 192.168.124.99 and put initramfs firmware in
server's root directory, rename it to a simple name "initramfs.bin".
2. Plug in the power supply and wait for power on, connect the TTL cable
and open a TTL session, enter "reboot", then enter "Y" to confirm.
Finally push "0" to interruput boot while booting.
3. Execute command to install a initramfs system:
# tftp 0x80010000 192.168.124.99:initramfs.bin
# bootm 0x80010000
4. Backup nand flash by OpenWrt LuCI or dd instruction. We need those
partitions if we want to back to stock firmwre due to official
website does not provide download link.
# dd if=/dev/mtd1 of=/tmp/u-boot-env.bin
# dd if=/dev/mtd4 of=/tmp/firmware.bin
5. Edit u-boot env to ensure use default bootargs and first image slot:
# fw_setenv bootargs
# fw_setenv bootflag 0
6. Upgrade sysupgrade firmware.
7. About restore stock firmware: flash the "firmware" and "u-boot-env"
partitions that we backed up in step 4.
# mtd write /tmp/u-boot-env.bin u-boot-env
# mtd write /tmp/firmware.bin firmware
Additional Info:
The H3C stock firmware has a 160-byte firmware header that appears to
use a non-standard CRC32 verification algorithm. For this part of the
data, the u-boot does not check it so we can just directly replace it
with a placeholder.

Logic-Level is 3V3. Don't connect VCC to your UART adapter!
Installation Web-UI
-------------------
Upload the Factory image using the devices Web-Interface.
As the device uses a dual-image partition layout, OpenWrt can only
installed on Slot A. This requires the current active image prior
flashing the device to be on Slot B.
If the currently installed image is started from Slot A, the device will
flash OpenWrt to Slot B. OpenWrt will panic upon first boot in this case
and the device will return to the ZyXEL firmware upon next boot.
If this happens, first install a ZyXEL firmware upgrade of any version
and install OpenWrt after that.
Installation TFTP
-----------------
This installation routine is especially useful in case
* unknown device password (NWA55AXE lacks reset button)
* bricked device
Attach to the UART console header of the device. Interrupt the boot
procedure by pressing Enter.
The bootloader has a reduced command-set available from CLI, but more
commands can be executed by abusing the atns command.
Boot a OpenWrt initramfs image available on a TFTP server at
192.168.1.66. Rename the image to owrt.bin
$ atnf owrt.bin
$ atna 192.168.1.88
$ atns "192.168.1.66; tftpboot; bootm"
Upon booting, set the booted image to the correct slot:
$ zyxel-bootconfig /dev/mtd10 get-status
$ zyxel-bootconfig /dev/mtd10 set-image-status 0 valid
$ zyxel-bootconfig /dev/mtd10 set-active-image 0
Copy the OpenWrt ramboot-factory image to the device using scp.
Write the factory image to NAND and reboot the device.
$ mtd write ramboot-factory.bin firmware
$ reboot

The international version of Mi Router 4A 100M is physically
identical to the non-international one, but appears to be
using a different partitioning scheme with the "overlay"
partition being 2MiB in size instead of 1MiB. This means
the following "firmware" partition starts at a different

SoC Type: MediaTek MT7621AT
RAM: 128 MiB
Flash: 128 MiB (Winbond W29N01HV)
Wireless 2.4 GHz (MT7615DN): b/g/n, 2x2
Wireless 5 GHz (MT7615DN): a/n/ac, 2x2
Ethernet: 3xGbE (WAN, LAN1, LAN2)
USB ports: No
Button: 1 (Reset/WPS)

Power: 12 VDC, 1 A
Connector type: Barrel
Bootloader: U-Boot (Ralink UBoot Version: 5.0.0.2)
OEM: Arcadyan WG430223
Installation
------------
1. Login to the router web interface (superadmin:serial number)
2. Navigate to Administration -> Miscellaneous -> Access control lists &
enable telnet & enable "Remote control from any IP address"
3. Connect to the router using telnet (default admin:admin)
4. Place *factory.trx on any web server (192.168.1.2 in this example)
5. Connect to the router using telnet shell (no password required)
6. Save MAC adresses to U-Boot environment:
uboot_env --set --name eth2macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth2 | \
awk '{print $5}')
uboot_env --set --name eth3macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth3 | \
awk '{print $5}')
uboot_env --set --name ra0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep ra0 | \
awk '{print $5}')
uboot_env --set --name rax0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep rax0 | \
awk '{print $5}')
7. Ensure that MACs were saved correctly:
uboot_env --get --name eth2macaddr
uboot_env --get --name eth3macaddr
uboot_env --get --name ra0macaddr
uboot_env --get --name rax0macaddr
8. Download and write the OpenWrt images:
cd /tmp
wget http://192.168.1.2/factory.trx
mtd_write erase /dev/mtd4
mtd_write write factory.trx /dev/mtd4
9. Set 1st boot partition and reboot:
uboot_env --set --name bootpartition --value 0
Back to Stock
-------------
1. Run in the OpenWrt shell:
fw_setenv bootpartition 1
reboot
2. Optional step. Upgrade the stock firmware with any version to
overwrite the OpenWrt in Slot 1.

| WLAN_2g | A4:xx:xx:51:xx:F5 | |
| WLAN_5g | A6:xx:xx:21:xx:F5 | |
+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
[1]:
a. Label wasb't found neither in factory nor in other places.
b. MAC addresses are stored in encrypted partition "glbcfg". Encryption
key hasn't known yet. To ensure the correct MACs in OpenWrt, a hack
with saving of the MACs to u-boot-env during the installation was
applied.
c. Default Ralink ethernet MAC address (00:0C:43:28:80:A0) was found in
"Factory" 0xfff0. It's the same for all MTS WG430223 devices. OEM
firmware also uses this MAC when initialazes ethernet driver. In
OpenWrt we use it only as internal GMAC (eth0), all other MACs are
unique. Therefore, there is no any barriers to the operation of several
MTS WG430223 devices even within the same broadcast domain.

MAC address assignment
----------------------
LAN MAC is read from the config partition, WiFi 2.4GHz is LAN+2 and matches
the OEM firmware. WiFi 5GHz with LAN+1 is an educated guess since the
OEM firmware does not enable 5GHz WiFi.
Installation
------------
Attach serial console, then boot the initramfs image via TFTP.
Once inside OpenWrt, run sysupgrade -n with the sysupgrade file.
Attention: The device has a dual-firmware design. We overwrite kernel2,
since kernel1 contains an automatic recovery image.
If you get NAND ECC errors and are stuck with bad eraseblocks, try to
erase the mtd partition first with
mtd unlock ubi
mtd erase ubi
This should only be needed once.

Everything works correctly.
Installation
------------
Flash the initramfs image in the OEM firmware interface
(http://192.168.10.1/update.shtml).
When Openwrt boots, flash the sysupgrade image otherwise you won't be
able to keep configuration between reboots.
(Procedure tested on fw M33A8.V5030.190716 and M33A8.V5030.201204)
Restore OEM Firmware
--------------------
Flash the firmware update available online directly from LUCI.
You can download it from:
https://www.wavlink.com/en_us/firmware/details/f2d247ecba.html
Warning: Remember to not keep settings!
Warning2: Remember to force the flash.
Notes
-----
1) Router mac addresses:
LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:63 (factory @ 0xe006)
WAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:64 (factory @ 0xe000)
WIFI 2G/5G XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:65 (factory @ 0x04)
WIFI 5G XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:66 (factory @ 0x8004)
LABEL XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:65
In OEM firmware the DBDC wifi interfaces have these mac addresses:
2G) 82:XX:XX:XX:XX:65
5G) 80:XX:XX:XX:XX:65
While in OpenWrt the addresses are:
2G) 80:XX:XX:XX:XX:65
5G) 02:XX:XX:XX:XX:65
2) radio0 will show as 2G/5G interface but only 2G is really usable.
3) There is just one wifi led for all wifi interfaces.
It currently shows only the radio0 GHz wifi activity.
4) My unit was shipped with M33A8.V5030.190716 firmware which contains
the http://192.168.10.1/webcmd.shtml page. Entering "telnetd" in
the input box it will start the telnet daemon. Now you can access
the telnet console on port 2323 with these credentials:
username: admin2860
password: admin
5) The M33A8.V5030.201204 firmware version, doesn't contain anymore the
webcmd.shtml page. If your router is shipped with a previous firmware
version and you want to back it up, you can follow the back up
procedure of the WS-WN583A6.

TP-Link RE650 v2 is largely similar to v1 that
is already supported by OpenWrt. Notable differences
is differnt SPI Flash - 8 MB instead of 16 MB
(from cFeon instead of Winbond) and a different
configuration of PCIE connections to wifi chips.
Otherwise it's largely the same product as v1
Hardware specification:
- SoC 880 MHz - MediaTek MT7621AT
- 128 MB of DDR3 RAM
- 8 MB - cFeon QH64A-104HIP
- 4T4R 2.4 GHz - MediaTek MT7615E
- 4T4R 5 GHz - MediaTek MT7615E
- 1x 1 Gbps Ethernet - MT7621AT integrated
- 7x LEDs (Power, 2G, 5G, WPS(x2), Lan(x2))
- 4x buttons (Reset, Power, WPS, LED)
- UART pinout - GND, RX, TX, labeled in the middle of the PCB,
requires soldering because they're not through holes.
Serial console @ 57600,8n1
Flash instructions:
Upload

from the RE650 web interface.
TFTP recovery to stock firmware:
I didn't try recovering back to the stock firmware, however,
if there is such process for other RExxx devices, it seems like
it could be similar here.
