The Sophos AP15 seems to be very close to Sophos AP55/AP100.
Based on:
commit 6f1efb2898 ("ath79: add support for Sophos AP100/AP55 family")
author Andrew Powers-Holmes <andrew@omnom.net>
Fri, 3 Sep 2021 15:53:57 +0200 (23:53 +1000)

Sat, 16 Apr 2022 16:59:29 +0200 (16:59 +0200)
Unique to AP15:
- Green and yellow LED
- 2T2R 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n via SoC WMAC
- No buttons
- No piezo beeper
- No 5.8GHz
Flashing instructions:
- Derived from UART method described in referenced commit, methods
described there should work too.
- Set up a TFTP server; IP address has to be 192.168.99.8/24
- Copy the firmware (initramfs-kernel) to your TFTP server directory
renaming it to e.g. boot.bin
- Open AP's enclosure and locate UART header (there is a video online)
- Terminal connection parameters are 115200 8/N/1
- Connect TFTP server and AP via ethernet
- Power up AP and cancel autoboot when prompted
- Prompt shows 'ath> '
- Commands used to boot:
ath> tftpboot 0x81000000 boot.bin
ath> bootm 0x81000000
- Device should boot OpenWRT
- IP address after boot is 192.168.1.1/24
- Connect to device via browser
- Permanently flash using the web ui (flashing sysupgrade image)
- (BTW: the AP55 images seem to work too, only LEDs are not working)
Testing done:
- To be honest: Currently not so much testing done.
- Flashed onto two devices
- Devices are booting
- MAC addresses are correct
- LEDs are working
- Scanning for WLANs is working
Big thanks to all the people working on this great project!

Important notes:
the PLC firmware has to be provided and copied manually onto the

has to be uploaded to the PLC controller at every system start
the PLC functionality is managed by the script /etc/init.d/plc_basic,
a very basic script based on the the one from Netadair (netadair dot de)

Additional notes:
the pairing buttons have to have pressed for at least half a second,
it doesn't matter on which plc device (master or slave) first
it is possible to pair the devices without the button-pairing requirement
simply by pressing reset on the slave device. This will default to the
firmware settings, which is also how the plc_basic script is setting up
the master device, i.e. configuring it to firmware defaults
the PL-E56P slave PLC has its dedicated 4MByte SPI, thus it is capable
to store all firmware currently available. Note that some other
slave devices are not guarantied to have the capacity for the newer
~1MByte firmware blobs!
To have a good overlook about the slave device, here are its specs:
same QCA7500 PLC controller, same w631gg6kb-15 128MB RAM,

The bootloader on this board hid the partition containig MAC addresses
and prevented adding this space to FIS directory, therefore those had to
be stored in RedBoot configuration as aliases to be able to assigne them
to proper interfaces. Now that fixed partition size are used instead of
redboot-fis parser, the partition containig MAC addresses could be
specified, and with marking it as nvmem cell, we can assign them without
userspace involvement.

After the kernel has switched version to 5.10, JA76PF2 and
RouterStations lost the capability to sysupgrade the OpenWrt version.
The cause is the lack of porting the patches responsible for partial
flash erase block writing and these boards FIS directory and RedBoot
config partitions share the same erase block. Because of that the FIS
directory can't be updated to accommodate kernel/rootfs partition size
changes. This could be remedied by bootloader update, but it is very
intrusive and could potentially lead to non-trivial recovery procedure,
if something went wrong. The less difficult option is to use OpenWrt
kernel loader, which will let us use static partition sizes and employ
mtd splitter to dynamically adjust kernel and rootfs partition sizes.
On sysupgrade from ath79 19.07 or 21.02 image, which still let to modify
FIS directory, the loader will be written to kernel partition, while the
kernel+rootfs to rootfs partition.
The caveats are:
* image format changes, no possible upgrade from ar71xx target images
* downgrade to any older OpenWrt version will require TFTP recovery or
usage of bootloader command line interface
To downgrade to 19.07 or 21.02, or to upgrade if one is already on
OpenWrt with kernel 5.10, for RouterStations use TFTP recovery
procedure. For JA76PF2 use instructions from this commit message:
commit 0cc87b3bac ("ath79: image: disable sysupgrade images for routerstations and ja76pf2"),
replacing kernel image with loader (loader.bin suffix) and rootfs
image with firmware (firmware.bin suffix).

there are still enough flash resources. But the RAM reaches its capacity

This commit adds support for the TP-Link Deco M4R (it can also be M4,
TP-Link uses both names) v1 and v2. It is similar hardware-wise to the
Archer C6 v2. Software-wise it is very different. V2 has a bit different
layout from V1 but the chips are the same and the OEM firmware is the same
for both versions.
Specifications:
SoC: QCA9563-AL3A
RAM: Zentel A3R1GE40JBF
Wireless 2.4GHz: QCA9563-AL3A (main SoC)
Wireless 5GHz: QCA9886
Ethernet Switch: QCA8337N-AL3C
Flash: 16 MB SPI NOR
Flashing:
The device's bootloader only accepts images that are signed using
TP-Link's RSA key, therefore this way of flashing is not possible. The
device has a web GUI that should be accessible after setting up the device
using the app (it requires the app to set it up first because the web GUI
asks for the TP-Link account password) but for unknown reasons, the web
GUI also refuses custom images.
There is a debug firmware image that has been shared on the device's
OpenWrt forum thread that has telnet unlocked, which the bootloader will
accept because it is signed. It can be used to transfer an OpenWrt image
file over to the device and then be used with mtd to flash the device.
Pre-requisites:
- Debug firmware.
- A way of transferring the file to the router, you can use an FTP server
as an example.
- Set a static IP of 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 on your computer.
- OpenWrt image.

- Unplug your router and turn it upside down. Using a long and thin object
like a SIM unlock tool, press and hold the reset button on the router and
replug it. Keep holding it until the LED flashes yellow.
- Open 192.168.0.1. You should see the bootloader recovery's webpage.
Choose the debug firmware that you downloaded and flash it. Wait until the
router reboots (at this stage you can remove the static IP).
- Open a terminal window and connect to the router via telnet (the primary
router should have a 192.168.0.1 IP address, secondary routers are
different).
- Transfer the file over to the router, you can use curl to download it
from the internet (use the insecure flag and make sure your source accepts
insecure downloads) or from an FTP server.
- The router's default mtd partition scheme has kernel and rootfs
separated. We can use dd to split the OpenWrt image file and flash it with
mtd:
dd if=openwrt.bin of=kernel.bin skip=0 count=8192 bs=256
dd if=openwrt.bin of=rootfs.bin skip=8192 bs=256
- Once the images are ready, you have to flash the device using mtd
(make sure to flash the correct partitions or you may be left with a
hard bricked router):
mtd write kernel.bin kernel
mtd write rootfs.bin rootfs
- Flashing is done, reboot the device now.

The Sophos AP100, AP100C, AP55, and AP55C are dual-band 802.11ac access
points based on the Qualcomm QCA9558 SoC. They share PCB designs with
several devices that already have partial or full support, most notably the
Devolo DVL1750i/e.
The AP100 and AP100C are hardware-identical to the AP55 and AP55C, however
the 55 models' ART does not contain calibration data for their third chain
despite it being present on the PCB.
Specifications common to all models:
- Qualcomm QCA9558 SoC @ 720 MHz (MIPS 74Kc Big-endian processor)
- 128 MB RAM
- 16 MB SPI flash
- 1x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port, 802.3af PoE-in
- Green and Red status LEDs sharing a single external light-pipe
- Reset button on PCB[1]
- Piezo beeper on PCB[2]
- Serial UART header on PCB
- Alternate power supply via 5.5x2.1mm DC jack @ 12 VDC
Unique to AP100 and AP100C:
- 3T3R 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n via SoC WMAC
- 3T3R 5.8GHz 802.11a/n/ac via QCA9880 (PCI Express)
AP55 and AP55C:
- 2T2R 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n via SoC WMAC
- 2T2R 5.8GHz 802.11a/n/ac via QCA9880 (PCI Express)
AP100 and AP55:
- External RJ45 serial console port[3]
- USB 2.0 Type A port, power controlled via GPIO 11
Flashing instructions:
This firmware can be flashed either via a compatible Sophos SG or XG
firewall appliance, which does not require disassembling the device, or via
the U-Boot console available on the internal UART header.
To flash via XG appliance:
- Register on Sophos' website for a no-cost Home Use XG firewall license
- Download and install the XG software on a compatible PC or virtual
machine, complete initial appliance setup, and enable SSH console access
- Connect the target AP device to the XG appliance's LAN interface
- Approve the AP from the XG Web UI and wait until it shows as Active
(this can take 3-5 minutes)
- Connect to the XG appliance over SSH and access the Advanced Console
(Menu option 5, then menu option 3)
- Run `sudo awetool` and select the menu option to connect to an AP via
SSH. When prompted to enable SSH on the target AP, select Yes.
- Wait 2-3 minutes, then select the AP from the awetool menu again. This
will connect you to a root shell on the target AP.
- Copy the firmware to /tmp/openwrt.bin on the target AP via SCP/TFTP/etc
- Run `mtd -r write /tmp/openwrt.bin astaro_image`
- When complete, the access point will reboot to OpenWRT.
To flash via U-Boot serial console:
- Configure a TFTP server on your PC, and set IP address 192.168.99.8 with
netmask 255.255.255.0
- Copy the firmware .bin to the TFTP server and rename to 'uImage_AP100C'
- Open the target AP's enclosure and locate the 4-pin 3.3V UART header [4]
- Connect the AP ethernet to your PC's ethernet port
- Connect a terminal to the UART at 115200 8/N/1 as usual
- Power on the AP and press a key to cancel autoboot when prompted
- Run the following commands at the U-Boot console:
- `tftpboot`
- `cp.b $fileaddr 0x9f070000 $filesize`
- `boot`
- The access point will boot to OpenWRT.
MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware:
use address source
LAN label config 0x201a (label)
2g label + 1 art 0x1002 (also found at config 0x2004)
5g label + 9 art 0x5006
Increments confirmed across three AP55C, two AP55, and one AP100C.
These changes have been tested to function on both current master and
21.02.0 without any obvious issues.
[1] Button is present but does not alter state of any GPIO on SoC
[2] Buzzer and driver circuitry is present on PCB but is not connected to
any GPIO. Shorting an unpopulated resistor next to the driver circuitry
should connect the buzzer to GPIO 4, but this is unconfirmed.
[3] This external RJ45 serial port is disabled in the OEM firmware, but
works in OpenWRT without additional configuration, at least on my
three test units.
[4] On AP100/AP55 models the UART header is accessible after removing
the device's top cover. On AP100C/AP55C models, the PCB must be removed
for access; three screws secure it to the case.
Pin 1 is marked on the silkscreen. Pins from 1-4 are 3.3V, GND, TX, RX

The device was added for ar71xx target and dropped during the ath79
transition, mainly because of the ascii mac address stored in bdinfo

The vendor u-boot image accepts sysupgrade.bin image with specific
requirements, including having squashfs signature "hsqs" at file offset
0x140000. This is not possible now that OpenWrt kernel image is at
least 2MB with the signature at offset 0x240000.
Installation of current build of OpenWrt now requires a bootstrap step
of installing an earlier version first.
- If the vendor u-boot accepts sysupgrade image, hc6361 image of LEDE
release should work
- If the vendor u-boot accepts only verified flashsmt image, install
the one in the above device page. The image is based on Barrier
Breaker
SHA256SUM of the flashsmt image
81b193b95ea5f8e5c30cd62fa9facf275f39233be4fdeed7038f3deed2736156
After the bootstrap step, current build of OpenWrt can be installed
there fine.

- 2T2R 802.11n/ac 5GHz
- 2x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet, with 802.3at PoE support (WAN port)
LED for 5 GHz WLAN is currently not supported as it is connected directly

Flash instructions:
If your device comes with generic QSDK based firmware, you can login
over telnet (login: root, empty password, default IP: 192.168.188.253),
issue first (important!) 'fw_setenv' command and then perform regular
upgrade, using 'sysupgrade -n -F ...' (you can use 'wget' to download
image to the device, SSH server is not available):
fw_setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f050000 || bootm 0x9fe80000"
sysupgrade -n -F openwrt-...-yuncore_...-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
In case your device runs firmware with YunCore custom GUI, you can use
U-Boot recovery mode:
1. Set a static IP 192.168.0.141/24 on PC and start TFTP server with
'tftp' image renamed to 'upgrade.bin'
2. Power the device with reset button pressed and release it after 5-7
seconds, recovery mode should start downloading image from server
(unfortunately, there is no visible indication that recovery got
enabled - in case of problems check TFTP server logs)

These devices only have 6MiB available for firmware, which is not
enough for recent release images, so move these to the tiny target.
Note for users sysupgrading from the previous ath79-generic snapshot
images:
The tiny target kernel has a 4Kb flash erase block size instead
of the generic target's 64kb. This means the JFFS2 overlay partition
containing settings must be reformatted with the new block size or else
there will be data corruption.
To do this, backup your settings before upgrading, then during the
sysupgrade, de-select "Keep Settings". On the CLI, use "sysupgrade -n".
If you forget to do this and your system becomes unstable after
upgrading, you can do this to format the partition and recover:
* Reboot
* Press RESET when Power LED blinks during boot to enter Failsafe mode
* SSH to 192.168.1.1
* Run "firstboot" and reboot

Araknis AN-700-AP-I-AC is an indoor wireless access point with
1 Gb ethernet port, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, and 802.3at PoE+
this board is a Senao device:
the hardware is equivalent to EnGenius EAP1750
the software is modified Senao SDK which is based on openwrt and uboot
including image checksum verification at boot time,
and a failsafe image that boots if checksum fails
**Specification:**
- QCA9558 SOC MIPS 74kc, 2.4 GHz WMAC, 3x3
- QCA9880 WLAN PCI card, 5 GHz, 3x3, 26dBm
- AR8035-A PHY RGMII GbE with PoE+ IN
- 40 MHz clock
- 16 MB FLASH MX25L12845EMI-10G
- 2x 64 MB RAM NT5TU32M16
- UART console J10, populated, RX shorted to ground
- 4 antennas 5 dBi, internal omni-directional plates
- 4 LEDs power, 2G, 5G, wps
- 1 button reset
NOTE: all 4 gpio controlled LEDS are viewed through the same lightguide
therefore, the power LED is off for default state
**MAC addresses:**
MAC address labeled as ETH
Only one Vendor MAC address in flash at art 0x0
eth0 ETH *:xb art 0x0
phy1 2.4G *:xc ---
phy0 5GHz *:xd ---
**Serial Access:**
the RX line on the board for UART is shorted to ground by resistor R176
therefore it must be removed to use the console
but it is not necessary to remove to view boot log
optionally, R175 can be replaced with a solder bridge short
the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin at J10
**Installation:**
Method 1: Firmware upgrade page:
(if you cannot access the APs webpage)
factory reset with the reset button
connect ethernet to a computer
OEM webpage at 192.168.20.253
username and password 'araknis'
make a new password, login again...
Navigate to 'File Management' page from left pane
Click Browse and select the factory.bin image
Upload and verify checksum
Click Continue to confirm
wait about 3 minutes
Method 2: Serial to load Failsafe webpage:
After connecting to serial console and rebooting...
Interrupt uboot with any key pressed rapidly
execute `run failsafe_boot` OR `bootm 0x9fd70000`
wait a minute
connect to ethernet and navigate to
192.168.20.253
Select the factory.bin image and upload
wait about 3 minutes
**Return to OEM:**
Method 1: Serial to load Failsafe webpage (above)
Method 2: delete a checksum from uboot-env
this will make uboot load the failsafe image at next boot
because it will fail the checksum verification of the image
ssh into openwrt and run
`fw_setenv rootfs_checksum 0`
reboot, wait a minute
connect to ethernet and navigate to
192.168.20.253
select OEM firmware image and click upgrade
Method 3: backup mtd partitions before upgrade
**TFTP recovery:**
Requires serial console, reset button does nothing
rename initramfs-kernel.bin to '0101A8C0.img'
make available on TFTP server at 192.168.1.101
power board, interrupt boot with serial console
execute `tftpboot` and `bootm 0x81000000`
NOTE: TFTP may not be reliable due to bugged bootloader
set MTU to 600 and try many times
**Format of OEM firmware image:**
The OEM software is built using SDKs from Senao
which is based on a heavily modified version
of Openwrt Kamikaze or Altitude Adjustment.
One of the many modifications is sysupgrade being performed by a custom script.
Images are verified through successful unpackaging, correct filenames
and size requirements for both kernel and rootfs files, and that they
start with the correct magic numbers (first 2 bytes) for the respective headers.
Newer Senao software requires more checks but their script
includes a way to skip them.
The OEM upgrade script is at
/etc/fwupgrade.sh
OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software
expects the kernel to be less than 1536k
and the OEM upgrade procedure would otherwise
overwrite part of the kernel when writing rootfs.
Note on PLL-data cells:
The default PLL register values will not work
because of the external AR8035 switch between
the SOC and the ethernet port.
For QCA955x series, the PLL registers for eth0 and eth1
can be see in the DTSI as 0x28 and 0x48 respectively.
Therefore the PLL registers can be read from uboot
for each link speed after attempting tftpboot
or another network action using that link speed
with `md 0x18050028 1` and `md 0x18050048 1`.
The clock delay required for RGMII can be applied at the PHY side,
using the at803x driver `phy-mode` setting through the DTS.
Therefore, the Ethernet Configuration registers for GMAC0
do not need the bits for RGMII delay on the MAC side.
This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver
since Linux 5.1 and 5.3

TP-Link Archer A9 v6 (FCCID: TE7A9V6) is an AC1900 Wave-2 gigabit home
router based on a combination of Qualcomm QCN5502 (most likely a 4x4:4
version of the QCA9563 WiSOC), QCA9984 and QCA8337N.
The vendor's firmware content reveals that the same device might be
available on the US market under name 'Archer C90 v6'. Due to lack of
access to such hardware, support introduced in this commit was tested
only on the EU version (sold under 'Archer A9 v6' name).
Based on the information on the PL version of the vendor website, this
device has been already phased out and is no longer available.
Specifications:
- Qualcomm QCN5502 (775 MHz)
- 128 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 16 MB of flash (SPI NOR)
- 5x Gbps Ethernet (Qualcomm QCA8337N over SGMII)
- Wi-Fi:
- 802.11b/g/n on 2.4 GHz: Qualcomm QCN5502* in 4x4:4 mode
- 802.11a/n/ac on 5 GHz: Qualcomm QCA9984 in 3x3:3 mode
- 3x non-detachable, dual-band external antennas (~3.5 dBi for 5 GHz,
~2.2 dBi for 2.4 GHz, IPEX/U.FL connectors)
- 1x internal PCB antenna for 2.4 GHz (~1.8 dBi)
- 1x USB 2.0 Type-A
- 11x LED (4x connected to QCA8337N, 7x connected to QCN5502)
- 2x button (reset, WPS)
- UART (4-pin, 2.54 mm pitch) header on PCB (not populated)
- 1x mechanical power switch
- 1x DC jack (12 V)
*) unsupported due to missing support for QCN550x in ath9k
UART system serial console notice:
The RX signal of the main SOC's UART on this device is shared with the
WPS button's GPIO. The first-stage U-Boot by default disables the RX,
resulting in a non-functional UART input.
If you press and keep 'ENTER' on the serial console during early
boot-up, the first-stage U-Boot will enable RX input.
Vendor firmware allows password-less access to the system over serial.
Flash instruction (vendor GUI):
1. It is recommended to first upgrade vendor firmware to the latest
version (1.1.1 Build 20210315 rel.40637 at the time of writing).
2. Use the 'factory' image directly in the vendor's GUI.
Flash instruction (TFTP based recovery in second-stage U-Boot):
1. Rename 'factory' image to 'ArcherA9v6_tp_recovery.bin'
2. Setup a TFTP server on your PC with IP 192.168.0.66/24.
3. Press and hold the reset button for ~5 sec while turning on power.
4. The device will download image, flash it and reboot.
Flash instruction (web based recovery in first-stage U-Boot):
1. Use 'CTRL+C' during power-up to enable CLI in first-stage U-Boot.
2. Connect a PC with IP set to 192.168.0.1 to one of the LAN ports.
3. Issue 'httpd' command and visit http://192.168.0.1 in browser.

Flash instruction:
You can use sysupgrade image directly in vendor firmware which is based
on LEDE/OpenWrt. Alternatively, you can use web recovery mode in U-Boot:
1. Configure PC with static IP 192.168.1.2/24.
2. Connect PC with one of RJ45 ports, press the reset button, power up
device, wait for first blink of all LEDs (indicates network setup),
then keep button for 3 following blinks and release it.
3. Open 192.168.1.1 address in your browser and upload sysupgrade image.

mtd-mac-address should no longer be used after commit 5ae2e78639
("kernel: drop support for mtd-mac-address"). Convert it to nvmem-cells.
While at it, also convert OpenWrt's custom mtd-cal-data property and
userspace pre-calibration data extraction to the nvmem implementation.
Note: nvmem-cells in QCN5502 wmac has not been tested.

The device itself requires the mtdparts from the uboot arguments to
properly boot the flashed image and to support dual-boot (primary +
recovery image). Unfortunately, the name of the mtd device in mtdparts is
still using the legacy name "ar7240-nor0" which must be supplied using the
Linux-specfic DT parameter linux,mtd-name to overwrite the generic name
"spi0.0".
Flashing instructions:
======================
Various methods can be used to install the actual image on the flash.
Two easy ones are:
ap51-flash
----------
The tool ap51-flash (https://github.com/ap51-flash/ap51-flash) should be
used to transfer the image to the u-boot when the device boots up.
initramfs from TFTP
-------------------
The serial console must be used to access the u-boot shell during bootup.
It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image from a TFTP server
(here with the IP 192.168.1.21):
setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr
The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to the
device via
scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using
sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin

For v2, both ath9k (2.4GHz Wifi) and ath10k (5 GHz) driver now
pull the (pre-)calibration data from the nvmem subsystem. v1
is slightly different as only the ath9k Wifi is supported.
This allows us to move the userspace caldata extraction
and mac-address patching for the 5GHZ ath10k supported

ath9k's nodes are also changed over to use nvmem-cells

port to computer.
Rename "xxxx-factory.bin" to
"openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ap147-16M-rootfs-squashfs.bin".
* Make sure firmware file is in the tftpd's directory, push
reset button and plug in, hold it for 5 seconds, and then
it will download firmware from tftp server automatically.
More information:
* This device boot from flash@0xe80000 so we need a okli
loader to deal with small kernel partition issue. In order
to make full use of the storage space, connect a part of the
previous kernel partition to the firmware.

Obtain SSH Access
1. Download and flash the firmware version 1.3.8 (China).
2. Login to the router web interface and get the value of `stok=` from the
URL
3. Open a new tab and go to the following URL (replace <STOK> with the stok
value gained above; line breaks are only for easier handling, please put
together all four lines into a single URL without any spaces):
http://192.168.31.1/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=<STOK>/api/misystem/set_config_iotdev

g%27%20%2Fetc%2Finit.d%2Fdropbear%0A%2Fetc%2Finit.d%2Fdropbear%20start%0A
4. Wait 30-60 seconds (this is the time required to generate keys for the
SSH server on the router).
Create Full Backup
1. Obtain SSH Access.
2. Create backup of all flash (on router):
dd if=/dev/mtd0 of=/tmp/ALL.backup
3. Copy backup to PC (on PC):
scp root@192.168.31.1:/tmp/ALL.backup ./
Tip: backup of the original firmware, taken three times, increases the
chances of recovery :)
Calculate The Password
* Locally using shell (replace "12345/E0QM98765" with your router's serial
number):
On Linux
printf "%s6d2df50a-250f-4a30-a5e6-d44fb0960aa0" "12345/E0QM98765" | \
md5sum - | head -c8 && echo
On macOS
printf "%s6d2df50a-250f-4a30-a5e6-d44fb0960aa0" "12345/E0QM98765" | \
md5 | head -c8
* Locally using python script (replace "12345/E0QM98765" with your
router's serial number):
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eisaev/ax3600-files/master/scripts/calc_passwd.py
python3.7 -c 'from calc_passwd import calc_passwd; print(calc_passwd("12345/E0QM98765"))'
* Online

Debricking (lite)
If you have a healthy bootloader, you can use recovery via TFTP using
programs like TinyPXE on Windows or dnsmasq on Linux. To switch the router
to TFTP recovery mode, hold down the reset button, connect the power
supply, and release the button after about 10 seconds. The router must be
connected directly to the PC via the LAN port.
Debricking
You will need a full dump of your flash, a CH341 programmer, and a clip
for in-circuit programming.
Install OpenWRT
1. Obtain SSH Access.
2. Create script (on router):
echo '#!/bin/sh' > /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo '. /bin/boardupgrade.sh' >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo 'board_prepare_upgrade' >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo 'mtd erase rootfs_data' >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo 'mtd write /tmp/openwrt.bin firmware' >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo 'sleep 3' >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo 'reboot' >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
echo >> /tmp/flash_fw.sh
chmod +x /tmp/flash_fw.sh
3. Copy `openwrt-ath79-generic-xiaomi_aiot-ac2350-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin`
to the router (on PC):
scp openwrt-ath79-generic-xiaomi_aiot-ac2350-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin \
root@192.168.31.1:/tmp/openwrt.bin
4. Flash OpenWRT (on router):
/bin/ash /tmp/flash_fw.sh &
5. SSH connection will be interrupted - this is normal.
6. Wait for the indicator to turn blue.

-----------------
There are two board revisions of the RUT230, a v0 and v1.
A HW version is silkscreened on the top of the PCBs front side as well
as shown in the Teltonika UI. However, this looks to be a different
identifier, as the GPl dump shows this silkscreened / UI shown version
are internally treated identically.
Th following mapping has been obtained from the latest GPl dump.
HW Ver 01 - 04 --> v0
HW Ver > 05 --> v1
My board was a HW Ver 09 and is treated as a v1.
Installation
------------
While attaching power, hold down the reset button and release it after
the signal LEDs flashed 3 times.
Attach your Computer with the devices LAN port and assign yourself the
IPv4 address 192.168.1.10/24. Open a web browser, navigate to
192.168.1.1. Upload the OpenWrt factory image.

This patch adds support for the Devolo dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac.
This device is a plc wifi AC2400 router/extender with 2 Ethernet ports,
has a QCA7500 PLC and uses the HomePlug AV2 standard.
Other than the PLC the hardware is identical to the Devolo Magic 2 WIFI.
Therefore it uses the same dts, which was moved to a dtsi to be included
by both boards.
This is a board that was previously included in the ar71xx tree.
Hardware:
SoC: AR9344
CPU: 560 MHz
Flash: 16 MiB (W25Q128JVSIQ)
RAM: 128 MiB DDR2
Ethernet: 2xLAN 10/100/1000
PLC: QCA75000 (Qualcomm HPAV2)
PLC Uplink: 1Gbps MIMO
PLC Link: RGMII 1Gbps (WAN)
WiFi: Atheros AR9340 2.4GHz 802.11bgn

MACs Details verified with the stock firmware:
Radio1: 2.4 GHz &wmac *:4c Art location: 0x1002
Radio0: 5.0 GHz &pcie *:4d Art location: 0x5006
Ethernet ðernet *:4e = 2.4 GHz + 2
PLC uplink --- *:4f = 2.4 GHz + 3
Label MAC address is from PLC uplink
The Powerline (PLC) interface of the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac requires 3rd
party firmware which is not available from standard OpenWrt package
feeds. There is a package feed on github which you must add to
OpenWrt buildroot so you can build a firmware image which supports the
plc interface.
See: https://github.com/0xFelix/dlan-openwrt (forked from Devolo and
added compatibility for OpenWrt 21.02)
Flash instruction (TFTP):
1. Set PC to fixed ip address 192.168.0.100
2. Download the sysupgrade image and rename it to uploadfile
3. Start a tftp server with the image file in its root directory
4. Turn off the router
5. Press and hold Reset button
6. Turn on router with the reset button pressed and wait ~15 seconds
7. Release the reset button and after a short time
the firmware should be transferred from the tftp server
8. Allow 1-2 minutes for the first boot.

overcome the limitation without changing the boot address of the
bootloaders.

Use a similar upgrade method for sysupgrade.bin, like factory.bin,
for Senao boards with the tar.gz OEM upgrade platform,
and 'failsafe' image which is loaded on checksum failure.
This is inspired by the OEM upgrade script /etc/fwupgrade.sh
and the existing platforms for dual-boot Senao boards.
Previously, if the real kernel was damaged or missing
the only way to recover was with UART serial console,
because the OKLI lzma-loader is programmed to halt.
uboot did not detect cases where kernel or rootfs is damaged
and boots OKLI instead of the failsafe image,
because the checksums stored in uboot environment
did not include the real kernel and rootfs space.
Now, the stored checksums include the space for both
the lzma-loader, kernel, and rootfs.
Therefore, these boards are now practically unbrickable.
Also, the factory.bin and sysupgrade.bin are now the same,
except for image metadata.
This allows for flashing OEM image directly from openwrt
as well as flashing openwrt image directly from OEM.
Make 'loader' partition writable so that it can be updated
during a sysupgrade.

This device is a wireless router working on 2.4GHz band based on
Qualcom/Atheros AR9132 rev 2 SoC and is accompanied by Atheros AR9103
wireless chip and Realtek RTL8366RB/S switches. Due to two different
switches being used also two different devices are provided.
Specification:
- 400 MHz CPU
- 64 MB of RAM
- 32 MB of FLASH (NOR)
- 3x3:2 2.4 GHz 802.11bgn
- 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet
- 4x LED, 3x button, On/Off slider, Auto/On/Off slider
- 1x USB 2.0
- bare UART header place on PCB
Flash instruction:
- NOTE: Pay attention to the switch variant and choose the image to
flash accordingly. (dmesg / kernel logs can tell it)
- Methods for flashing
- Apply factory image in OEM firmware web-gui.
- Sysupgrade on top of existing OpenWRT image
- U-Boot TFPT recovery for both stock or OpenWRT images:
The device U-boot contains a TFTP server that by default has
an address 192.168.11.1 (MAC 02:AA:BB:CC:DD:1A). During the boot
there is a time window, during which the device allows an image to
be uploaded from a client with address 192.168.11.2. The image will
be written on flash automatically.
1) Have a computer with static IP address 192.168.11.2 and the
router device switched off.
2) Connect the LAN port next to the WAN port in the device and the
computer using a network switch.
3) Assign IP 192.168.11.1 the MAC address 02:AA:BB:CC:DD:1A
arp -s 192.168.11.1 02:AA:BB:CC:DD:1A
4) Initiate an upload using TFTP image variant
curl -T <imagename> tftp://192.168.11.1
5) Switch on the device. The image will be uploaded subsequently.
You can keep an eye on the diag light on the device, it should
keep on blinking for a while indicating the writing of the image.
General notes:
- In the stock firmware the MAC address is the same among all
interfaces so it is left here that way too.
Recovery:
- TFTP method
- U-boot serial console
Differences to ar71xx platform
- This device is split in two different targets now due to hardware
being a bit different under the hood. Dynamic solution within the same
image is left for later time.
- GPIOs for a sliding On/Off switch, marked 'Movie engine' on the device
cover, were the wrong way around and were renamed qos_on -> movie_off,
qos_off -> movie_on. Associated key codes remained the same they were.

to be accepted for upgrading via OEM Web UI.
Both ethernet ports are set to LAN by default, matching the labelling on
the case. However, since both GMAC Interfaces eth0 and eth1 are connected
to the switch (QCA8337), the user may create an additional 'wan' interface
as desired and override the vlan id settings to map br-lan / wan to either
the PoE or non-PoE port, depending on the individual scenario of use.
So, the LAN and WAN ports would then be connected to different GMACs, e.g.

option ifname 'eth1.2'
...

- Ethernet: 1 x 100Mbit port (SoC MAC+PHY)
- Wi-Fi: Atheros AR9283-AL1A (2T2R, 11n)
Installation:
1. Requires TFTP server at 192.168.1.101, w/ initramfs & sysupgrade .bins
2. Open shell case
3. Connect a USB->TTL cable to headers furthest from the RF shield
4. Power on the router; connect to U-boot over 115200-baud connection
5. Interrupt U-boot process to boot Openwrt by running:
setenv bootcmd bootm 0xbf0a0000; saveenv;
tftpboot 0c00000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin;
bootm 0c00000;
6. Copy sysupgrade image to /tmp on MR12
7. sysupgrade /tmp/<filename-of-sysupgrade>.bin
Notes:
- kmod-owl-loader is still required to load the ART partition into the
driver.
- The manner of storing MAC addresses is updated from ar71xx; it is
at 0x66 of the 'config' partition, where it was discovered that the
OEM firmware stores it. This is set as read-only. If you are
migrating from ar71xx and used the method mentioned above to
upgrade, use kmod-mtd-rw or UCI to add the MAC back in. One more
method for doing this is described below.
- Migrating directly from ar71xx has not been thoroughly tested, but
one method has been used a couple of times with good success,
migrating 18.06.2 to a full image produced as of this commit. Please
note that these instructions are only for experienced users, and/or
those still able to open their device up to flash it via the serial
headers should anything go wrong.
1) Install kmod-mtd-rw and uboot-envtools
2) Run `insmod mtd-rw.ko i_want_a_brick=1`
3) Modify /etc/fw_env.config to point to the u-boot-env partition.
The file /etc/fw_env.config should contain:
# MTD device env offset env size sector size
/dev/mtd1 0x00000 0x10000 0x10000
See https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/bootloader/uboot.config
for more details.
4) Run `fw_printenv` to verify everything is correct, as per the
link above.
5) Run `fw_setenv bootcmd bootm 0xbf0a0000` to set a new boot address.
6) Manually modify /lib/upgrade/common.sh's get_image function:
Change ...
cat "$from" 2>/dev/null | $cmd
... into ...
(
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=$((0x66)) ; # Pad the first 102 bytes
echo -ne '\x00\x18\x0a\x12\x34\x56' ; # Add in MAC address
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=$((0x20000-0x66-0x6)) ; # Pad the rest
cat "$from" 2>/dev/null
) | $cmd
... which, during the upgrade process, will pad the image by
128K of zeroes-plus-MAC-address, in order for the ar71xx's
firmware partition -- which starts at 0xbf080000 -- to be
instead aligned with the ath79 firmware partition, which
starts 128K later at 0xbf0a0000.
