The TP-Link EAP235-Wall is a wall-mounted, PoE-powered AC1200 access
point with four gigabit ethernet ports.
When connecting to the device's serial port, it is strongly advised to
use an isolated UART adapter. This prevents linking different power
domains created by the PoE power supply, which may damage your devices.
The device's U-Boot supports saving modified environments with
`saveenv`. However, there is no u-boot-env partition, and saving
modifications will cause the partition table to be overwritten. This is
not an issue for running OpenWrt, but will prevent the vendor FW from
functioning properly.
Device specifications:
* SoC: MT7621DAT
* RAM: 128MiB
* Flash: 16MiB SPI-NOR
* Wireless 2.4GHz (MT7603EN): b/g/n, 2x2
* Wireless 5GHz (MT7613BEN): a/n/ac, 2x2
* Ethernet: 4× GbE
* Back side: ETH0, PoE PD port
* Bottom side: ETH1, ETH2, ETH3
* Single white device LED
* LED button, reset button (available for failsafe)
* PoE pass-through on port ETH3 (enabled with GPIO)
Datasheet of the flash chip specifies a maximum frequency of 33MHz, but
that didn't work. 20MHz gives no errors with reading (flash dump) or
writing (sysupgrade).
Device mac addresses:
Stock firmware uses the same MAC address for ethernet (on device label)
and 2.4GHz wireless. The 5GHz wireless address is incremented by one.
This address is stored in the 'info' ('default-mac') partition at an
offset of 8 bytes.
From OEM ifconfig:
eth a4:2b:b0:...:88
ra0 a4:2b:b0:...:88
rai0 a4:2b:b0:...:89
Flashing instructions:
* Enable SSH in the web interface, and SSH into the target device
* run `cliclientd stopcs`, this should return "success"
* upload the factory image via the web interface
Debricking:
U-boot can be interrupted during boot, serial console is 57600 baud, 8n1
This allows installing a sysupgrade image, or fixing the device in
another way.
* Access serial header from the side of the board, close to ETH3,
pin-out is (1:TX, 2:RX, 3:GND, 4:3.3V), with pin 1 closest to ETH3.
* Interrupt bootloader by holding '4' during boot, which drops the
bootloader into its shell
* Change default 'serverip' and 'ipaddr' variables (optional)
* Download initramfs with `tftpboot`, and boot image with `bootm`
# tftpboot 84000000 openwrt-initramfs.bin
# bootm
Revert to stock:
Using the tplink-safeloader utility from the firmware-utils package,
TP-Link's firmware image can be converted to an OpenWrt-compatible
sysupgrade image:
$ ./staging_dir/host/bin/tplink-safeloader -B EAP235-WALL-V1 \
-z EAP235-WALLv1_XXX_up_signed.bin -o eap235-sysupgrade.bin
This can then be flashed using the OpenWrt sysupgrade interface. The
image will appear to be incompatible and must be force flashed, without
keeping the current configuration.
Known issues:
- DFS support is incomplete (known issue with MT7613)
- MT7613 radio may stop responding when idling, reboot required.
This was an issue with the ddc75ff704 version of mt76, but appears to
have improved/disappeared with bc3963764d.

Console is 115200 8N1.
Boot
----
1. Connect to the serial console and connect power.
2. Double-press ESC when prompted
3. Set the fdt address
$ fdt addr $(fdtcontroladdr)
4. Remove the signature node from the control FDT
$ fdt rm /signature
5. Transfer and boot the OpenWrt initramfs image to the device.
Make sure to name the file C0A80114.img and have it reachable at
192.168.1.1/24
$ tftpboot; bootm
Installation
------------
1. Connect to the booted device at 192.168.1.20 using username/password
"ubnt".
2. Update the bootloader environment.
$ fw_setenv devmode TRUE
$ fw_setenv boot_openwrt "fdt addr \$(fdtcontroladdr);
fdt rm /signature; bootubnt"
$ fw_setenv bootcmd "run boot_openwrt"
3. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using SCP.
4. Check the mtd partition number for bs / kernel0 / kernel1
$ cat /proc/mtd
5. Set the bootselect flag to boot from kernel0
$ dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count=1 of=/dev/mtdblock4
6. Write the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to both kernel0 as well as kernel1
$ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock6
$ dd if=openwrt.bin of=/dev/mtdblock7
7. Reboot the device. It should boot into OpenWrt.
Below are the original installation instructions prior to the discovery
of "devmode=TRUE". They are not required for installation and are
documentation only.
The bootloader employs signature verification on the FIT image
configurations. This way, booting unauthorized image without patching
the bootloader is not possible. Manually configuring the bootcmd in the
U-Boot envronment won't work, as this is restored to the default value
if modified.
The bootloader is made up of three different parts.
1. The SPL performing early board initialization and providing a XModem
recovery in case the PBL is missing
2. The PBL being the primary U-Boot application and containing the
control FDT. It is LZMA packed with a uImage header.
3. A Ubiquiti standalone U-Boot application providing the main boot
routine as well as their recovery mechanism.
In a perfect world, we would only replace the PBL, as the SPL does not
perform checks on the PBLs integrity. However, as the PBL is in the same
eraseblock as the SPL, we need to at least rewrite both.
The bootloader will only verify integrity in case it has a "signature"
node in it's control device-tree. Renaming the signature node to
something else will prevent this from happening.
Warning: These instructions are based on the firmware intially
shipped with the device and potentially brick your device in a way it
can only be recovered using a SPI flasher.
Only (!) proceed if you understand this!
1. Extract the bootloader from the U-Boot partition using the OpenWrt
initramfs image.
2. Split the bootloader into it's 3 components:
$ dd if=bootloader.bin of=spl.bin bs=1 skip=0 count=45056
$ dd if=bootloader.bin of=pbl.uimage bs=1 skip=45056 count=143360
$ dd if=bootloader.bin of=ubnt.uimage bs=1 skip=188416
3. Strip the uImage header from the PBL
$ dd if=pbl.uimage of=pbl.lzma bs=64 skip=1
4. Decompress the PBL
$ lzma -d pbl.lzma --single-stream
The decompressed PBL sha256sum should be
d8b406c65240d260cf15be5f97f40c1d6d1b6e61ec3abed37bb841c90fcc1235
5. Open the decompressed PBL using your favorite hexeditor. Locate the
control FDT at offset 0x4CED0 (0xD00DFEED). At offset 0x4D5BC, the
label for the signature node is located. Rename the "signature"
string at this offset to "signaturr".
The patched PBL sha256sum should be
d028e374cdb40ba44b6e3cef2e4e8a8c16a3b85eb15d9544d24fdd10eed64c97
6. Compress the patched PBL
$ lzma -z pbl --lzma1=dict=67108864
The resulting pbl.lzma file should have the sha256sum
7ae6118928fa0d0b3fe4ff81abd80ecfd9ba2944cb0f0a462b6ae65913088b42
7. Create the PBL uimage
$ SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH=1607909492 mkimage -A mips -O u-boot -C lzma
-n "U-Boot 2018.03 [UniFi,v1.1.40.71]" -a 84000000 -e 84000000
-T firmware -d pbl.lzma patched_pbl.uimage
The resulting patched_pbl.uimage should have the sha256sum
b90d7fa2dcc6814180d3943530d8d6b0d6a03636113c94e99af34f196d3cf2ce
8. Reassemble the complete bootloader
$ dd if=patched_pbl.uimage of=aligned_pbl.uimage bs=143360 count=1
conv=sync
$ cat spl.bin > patched_uboot.bin
$ cat aligned_pbl.uimage >> patched_uboot.bin
$ cat ubnt.uimage >> patched_uboot.bin
The resulting patched_uboot.bin should have the sha256sum
3e1186f33b88a525687285c2a8b22e8786787b31d4648b8eee66c672222aa76b
9. Transfer your patched bootloader to the device. Also install the
kmod-mtd-rw package using opkg and load it.
$ insmod mtd-rw.ko i_want_a_brick=1
Write the patched bootloader to mtd0
$ mtd write patched_uboot.bin u-boot
10. Erase the kernel1 partition, as the bootloader might otherwise
decide to boot from there.
$ mtd erase kernel1
11. Transfer the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device and install
using sysupgrade.

This broke initramfs detection which is required so that when installing

While we mostly use the ucidef_set_led_* functions directly in 01_leds
we still have the set_wifi_led function in parallel for several old
devices. This is not only inconsistent with the other definitions,
it also links to the wlan0 interface instead of using a phy trigger
which would be independent of the interface name (and is used for
all newer devices anyway). Apart from that, the standard names
"wifi" and "wifi-led" are not very helpful in a world with different
radio bands either.
Thus, this patch removes the set_wifi_led function and puts the
relevant commands into the cases explicitly. This makes the
mechanism used more evident and will hopefully lead to some future
improvements or at least prevent some copy-pasting of the old
setups.

In ramips, it's not common to use an alias for specifying the WiFi
LED; actually only one device uses this mechanism (TL-WR841N v14).
Particularly since the WiFi LEDs are typically distinguished between
2.4G and 5G etc. it is also not very useful for this target.
Thus, this patch removes the setup lines for this mechanism and
converts the TL-WR841N v14 to the normal setup.

Like in the previous patch for ath79 target, this will remove the
"devicename" from LED labels in ramips as well.
The devicename is removed in DTS files and 01_leds, consolidation
of definitions into DTSI files is done where (easily) possible,
and migration scripts are updated.
For the latter, all existing definitions were actually just
devicename migrations anyway. Therefore, those are removed and
a common migration file is created in target base-files. This is
actually another example of how the devicename removal makes things
easier.

This might fail due to the A/B nature of this device. When flashing, OEM
firmware writes over the non-booted partition. If booted from 'A',
flashing over 'B' won't work. To get around this, you should flash the
OEM image over itself. This will then boot the router from 'B' and
allow you to flash OpenWRT without problems.
Reverting to factory firmware:
Hard-reset the router three times to force it to boot from 'B.' This is
where the stock firmware resides. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from
your router simply flash the OEM image at this point.

* USB: One USB3 port.
* I2C: J9 header, located below the top heatsink.
Backup the OEM Firmware:
-----------------------
There isn't any firmware released for the WL-WN531A6 on
the Wavlink web site. Reverting back to the OEM firmware is
not possible unless we have a backup of the original OEM
firmware.
The OEM firmware is stored on /dev/mtd4 ("Kernel").
1) Plug a FAT32 formatted USB flash drive into the USB port.
2) Navigate to "Setup->USB Storage". Under the "Available
Network folder" you can see part of the mount point of
the newly mounted flash drive filesystem - e.g "sda1".
The full mount point is prefixed with "/media", so in
this case the mount point becomes "/media/sda1".
3) Go to http://192.168.10.1/webcmd.shtml .
4) Type the following line in the "Command" input box:
dd if=/dev/mtd4ro of=/media/sda1/firmware.bin
5) Click "Apply"
6) After few seconds, in the text area should appear this
output:
30080+0 records in
30080+0 records out
7) Type "sync" in the "Command" input box and click "Apply".
8) At this point the OEM firmware is stored on the flash
drive as "firmware.bin". The size of the file is 15040 KB.
Installation:
------------
* Flashing instructions (OEM web interface):
The OEM web interface accepts only files with names containing
"WN531A6". It's also impossible to flash the *-sysupgrade.bin
image, so we have to flash the *-initramfs-kernel.bin first and
use the OpenWrt's upgrade interface to write the sysupgrade
image.
1) Rename openwrt-ramips-mt7621-wavlink_wl-wn531a6-initramfs-kernel.bin
to WN531A6.bin.
2) Connect your computer to the one of the LAN ports of the
router with an Ethernet cable and open http://192.168.10.1
3) Browse to Setup -> Firmware Upgrade interface.
4) Upload the (renamed) OpenWrt image - WN531A6.bin.
5) Proceed with the firmware installation and give the device
a few minutes to finish and reboot.
6) After reboot wait for the "WAVLINK" logo on the top cover
to turn solid blue, and open http://192.168.1.1
7) Use the OpenWrt's "Flash Firmware" interface to write the
OpenWrt sysupgrade image:
openwrt-ramips-mt7621-wavlink_wl-wn531a6-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
* Flashing instructions (u-boot TFTP):
1) Configure a TFTP server on your computer and set its IP
to 192.168.10.100
2) Rename the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to firmware.bin and
place it in the root folder of the TFTP server.
3) Power off the device and connect an Ethernet cable from
one of its LAN ports your computer.
4) Press the "Reset" button (and keep it pressed)
5) Power on the device.
6) After a few seconds, when the connected port LAN LED stops
blinking fast, release the "Reset" button.
7) Flashing OpenWrt takes less than a minute, system will
reboot automatically.
8) After reboot the WAVLINK logo on the top cover will indicate
the current OpenWrt running status (wait until the logo tunrs
solid blue).
Revert to the OEM Firmware:
--------------------------
* U-boot TFTP:
Follow "Flashing instructions (u-boot TFTP)" and use the
"firmware.bin" backup image.
* OpenWrt "Flash Firmware" interface:
Upload the "firmware.bin" backup image and select "Force update"
before continuing.
Notes:
-----
* The MAC address shown on the label at the back of the device
is assigned to the 2.4G WiFi adapter.
MAC addresses assigned by the OEM firmware:
2.4G: *:XX (label): factory@0x0004
5G: *:XX + 1 : factory@0x8004
WAN: *:XX - 1 : factory@0xe006
LAN: *:XX - 2 : factory@0xe000

This patch adds support for the MikroTik RouterBOARD 760iGS router.
It is similar to the already supported RouterBOARD 750Gr3.
The 760iGS device features an added SFP cage, and passive
PoE out on port 5 compared to the RB750Gr3.
https://mikrotik.com/product/hex_s
Specifications:
- SoC: MediaTek MT7621A
- CPU: 880MHz
- Flash: 16 MB
- RAM: 256 MB
- Ethernet: 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps
- SFP cage
- USB port
- microSD slot
Unsupported:
- Beeper (requires PWM driver)
- ZT2046Q (ADS7846 compatible) on SPI as slave 1 (CS1)
The linux driver requires an interrupt, and pendown GPIO
These are unknown, and not needed with the touchscreen
only used for temperature and voltage monitoring.
ads7846 hwmon:
temp0 is degrees Celsius
temp1 is voltage * 32
GPIOs:
- 07: input passive PoE out (lan5) compatible (Mikrotik) device connected
- 17: output passive PoE out (lan5) switch
Installation through RouterBoot follows the usual MikroTik method
https://openwrt.org/toh/mikrotik/common
To boot to intramfs image in RAM:
1. Setup TFTP server to serve intramfs image.
2. Plug Ethernet cable into WAN port.
3. Unplug power, hold reset button and plug power in.
Wait (~25 seconds) for beep and then release reset button.
The SFP LED will be lit in RouterBoot, but will not be lit in OpenWRT.
4. Wait for a minute. Router should be running OpenWrt,
check by plugging in to port 2-5 and going to 192.168.1.1.
To install OpenWrt to flash:
1. Follow steps above to boot intramfs image in RAM.
2. Flash the sysupgrade.bin image with web interface or sysupgrade.
3. Once the router reboots you will be running OpenWrt from flash.
OEM firmware differences:
- RouterOS assigns a different MAC address for each port
- The first address (E01 on the sticker) is used for wan (ether1 in OEM).
- The next address is used for lan2.
- The last address (E06 on the sticker) is used for sfp.

This implements the newly introduced compat-version to prevent
broken upgrade between swconfig and DSA for ramips' mt7621 subtarget.
In order to make the situation more transparent for the user, and
to prevent large switch-cases for devices, it is more convenient to
have the entire subtarget 1.1-by-default. This means that new devices
will be added with 1.1 from the start, but in contrast we don't need
to switch them in board.d files. Apart from that, users that manually
backport devices to 19.07 with swconfig will have an equivalent
upgrade experience to officially supported devices.
Since DSA support on mt7621 is out for a while already, this applies
the same uci-defaults workaround for early adopters as already
done for kirkwood and mvebu in previous commits.

For ramips/mt7621, the wpad-basic package is not selected by default,
but added for every device individually as needed.
While this might be technically correct if the SoC does not come with
a Wifi module, only 18 of 97 devices for that platform are set up
_without_ wpad-basic currently.
Therefore, it seems more convenient to add wpad-basic by default for
the subtarget and then just remove it for the 18 mentioned devices,
instead of having to add it for about 60 times instead.
This would also match the behavior of the 5 other subtargets, where
wpad-basic/wpad-mini is added by default as well, and thus be more
obvious to developers without detailed SoC knowledge.

The Winstars WS-WN583A6 is a wireless repeater with 2 gigabit ethernet
ports. Even if mine is branded as "Gemeita AC2100", the sticker on the
back says WS-WN583A6. So I will refer to it as Winstars WS-WN583A6.
Probably the real product name is the Wavlink WL-WN583A6 because of
the many references to Wavlink in the OEM firmware and bootlog.

Everything works correctly.
Currently there is no firmware update available. Because of this, in
order to restore the OEM firmware, you must firstly dump the OEM
firmware from your router before you flash the OpenWrt image.
Backup the OEM Firmware
-----------------------
The following steps are to be intended for users having little to none
experience in linux. Obviously there are many ways to backup the OEM
firmware, but probably this is the easiest way for this router.
Procedure tested on M83A6.V5030.191210 firmware version.
1) Go to http://192.168.10.1/webcmd.shtml
2) Type the following line in the "Command" input box:
mkdir /etc_ro/lighttpd/www/dev; for i in /dev/mtd*ro; do dd if=${i} of=/etc_ro/lighttpd/www${i}; done
3) Click "Apply"
4) After few seconds, in the textarea should appear this output:
16384+0 records in
16384+0 records out
8388608 bytes (8.0MB) copied, 4.038820 seconds, 2.0MB/s

dd: can't open '/dev/mtd5ro': No such device
dd: can't open '/dev/mtd6ro': No such device
dd: can't open '/dev/mtd7ro': No such device
Excluding the "X.XXXXXX seconds" part, you should get the same
exact output. If your output doesn't match mine, stop reading
and ask for help in the forum.
5) Open the following links to download the partitions of the OEM FW:
http://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd0rohttp://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd1rohttp://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd2rohttp://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd3rohttp://192.168.10.1/dev/mtd4ro
If one (or more) of these files weight 0 byte, stop reading and ask
for help in the forum.
6) Store these downloaded files in a safe place.
7) Reboot your router to remove any temporary file from your router.
Installation
------------
Flash the initramfs image in the OEM firmware interface.
When openwrt boots, flash the sysupgrade image otherwise you won't be
able to keep configuration between reboots.
Restore OEM Firmware
--------------------
Flash the "mtd4ro" file you previously backed-up directly from LUCI.
Warning: Remember to not keep settings!
Warning2: Remember to force the flash.
Notes
-----
1) The "System Command" page allows to run every command as root.
For example you can use "dd" and "nc" to backup the OEM firmware.
PC (SERVER):
nc -l 5555 > ./mtdXro
ROUTER (CLIENT):
dd if=/dev/mtdXro | nc PC_IP_ADDRESS 5555
2) The OEM web interface accepts only images containing the string
"WN583A6" in the filename.
Currently the OEM interface accepts only the initramfs image
probably because it checks if the ih_size in the image header is
equal to the whole image size (instead of the kernel size)
Read more here:
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/support-for-strong-1200/22768/19
3) The white led (namely "Smart Night Light") can be controller by the
user only if the side switch is set to "Schedule" otherwise it will
be activated by the light condition (there is a photodiode on the
top side of the router)
4) Router mac addresses:

Installation:
Flash factory image through GUI.
This might fail due to the A/B nature of this device. When flashing, OEM
firmware writes over the non-booted partition. If booted from 'A',
flashing over 'B' won't work. To get around this, you should flash the
OEM image over itself. This will then boot the router from 'B' and
allow you to flash OpenWRT without problems.
Reverting to factory firmware:
Hard-reset the router three times to force it to boot from 'B.' This is
where the stock firmware resides. To remove any traces of OpenWRT from
your router simply flash the OEM image at this point.

Hardware
--------
SoC: MediaTek MT7621ST
WiFi: MediaTek MT7603
Quantenna QT3840BC
Flash: 128M NAND
RAM: 64M
LED: Dual colour red and green
BTN: Reset
WPS
Eth: 4 x 10/100/1000 connected to MT7621 internal switch
MT7621 RGMII port connected to Quantenna module
GPIO: Power/reset of Quantenna module
Quantenna module
----------------
The Quantenna QT3840BC (or QV840) is a separate SoC running
another Linux installation. It is mounted on a wide mini-PCIe
form factor module, but is connected to the RGMII port of
the MT7621. It loads both a second uboot stage and an os
image from the MT7621 using tftp. The module is configured
using Quantenna specific RPC calls over IP, using 802.1q
over the RGMII link to support multiple SSIDs.
There is no support for using this module as a WiFi device
in OpenWrt. A package with basic firmware and management
tools is being prepared.
Serial ports
------------
Two serial ports with headers:
RRJ1 - 115200 8N1 - Connected to the Quantenna console
J1 - 57600 8N1 - Connected to the MT7621 console
Both share pinout with many other Zyxel/Mitrastar devices:
1 - NC (VDD)
2 - TX
3 - RX
4 - NC (no pin)
5 - GND
Dual system partitions
----------------------
The vendor firmware and boot loader use a dual partition
scheme storing a counter in the header of each partition. The
partition with the highest number will be selected for boot.
OpenWrt does not support this scheme and will always use the
first OS partition. It will reset both counters to zero the
first time sysupgrade is run, making sure the first partition
is selected by the boot loader.
Installation from vendor firmware
---------------------------------
1. Run a DHCP server. The WAP6805 is configured as a client device
and does not have a default static IP address. Make a note of
which address it is assigned
2. tftp the OpenWrt initramfs-kernel.bin image to this address.
Wait for the WAP6805 to reboot.
3. ssh to the OpenWrt initramfs system on 192.168.1.1. Make a
backup of all mtd partitions now. The last used OEM image is
still present in either "Kernel" or "Kernel2" at this point,
and can be restored later if you save a copy.
4. sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade.bin image.
Installation from U-Boot
------------------------
This requires serial console access
1. Copy the OpenWrt initramfs-kernel.bin image as "ras.bin" to
your tftp server directory. Configure the server address as
192.168.0.33/24
2. Hit ESC when the message "Hit ESC key to stop autoboot"
appears
3. Type "ATGU" + Enter, and then "2" immediately after pressing enter.
4. Answer Y to the question "Erase Linux in Flash then burn new
one. Are you sure?", and answer the address/filename questions.
Defaults:
Input device IP (192.168.0.2)
Input server IP (192.168.0.33)
Input Linux Kernel filename ("ras.bin")
5. Wait until after you see the message "Done!" and power cycle
the device. It will hang after flashing.
6. Continue with step 3 and 4 from the vendor firmware procedure.
Notes on the WAP6805 U-Boot
---------------------------
The bootloader has been modified with both ZyXELs zyloader and the
device specific dual partition scheme. These changes appear to have
broken a few things. The zyloader shell claims to support a number
of ZyXEL AT commands, but not all of them work. The image selection
scheme is unreliable and inconsistent. A limited U-Boot menu is
available - and used by the above U-Boot install procedure. But
direct booting into an uploaded image does not work, neither with
ram nor with flash. Flashing works, but requires a hard reset after
it is finished.
Reverting to OEM firmware
-------------------------
The OEM firmware can be restored by using mtd write from OpenWrt,
flashing it to the "Kernel" partition. E.g.
ssh root@192.168.1.1 "mtd -r -e Kernel write - Kernel" < oem.bin
OEM firmwares for the WAP6805 are not avaible for public download,
so a backup of the original installation is required. See above.
Alternatively, firmware for the WAP6806 (Armor X1) may be used. This
is exactly the same hardware. But the branding features do obviously
differ.
LED controller
--------------
Hardware implementation is unknown. The dual-color LED is controlled
by 3 GPIOs:
4: red
7: blinking green
13: green
Enabling both red and green makes the LED appear yellow.
The boot loader enables hardware blinking, causing the green LED to blink
slowly on power-on, until the OpenWrt boot mode starts a faster software
blink.

Installation
------------
Flash the factory image directly from OEM web interface.
(You can login using these credentials: admin/1234)
Restore OEM Firmware
--------------------
Flash the OEM "bin" firmware directly from LUCI.
The firmware is downloadable from the OEM web page.
Warning: Remember to not keep settings!
Warning2: Remember to force the flash.
Restoring procedure tested with RE23_1.08.bin
MAC addresses
-------------

Cimage 0x07 *:24
Cimage 0x0D *:24
Cimage 0x13 *:24
Cimage 0x19 *:25
No other addresses were found in factory partition.
Since the label contains both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz mac address I decided
to set the 5GHz one as label-mac-device. Moreover it also corresponds
to the lan mac address.
Notes
-----
The wifi led in the OEM firmware changes colour depending on the signal
strength. This can be done in OpenWrt but just for one interface.
So for now will not be any default action for this led.
If you want to open the case, pay attention to the antenna placed on
the bottom part of the front cover.
The wire is a bit short and it breaks easily. (I broke it)

This moves WiFi LED triggers from 01_leds to device tree.
While at it, convert the labels there to lower case; this is
more commonly used and the change will actually remove competition
between DT trigger and leftover uci config on already installed

from the RE500 web interface.
TFTP recovery to stock firmware:
Unfortunately, I can't find an easy way to recover the RE
without opening the device and using modified binaries. The
TFTP upload will only work if selected from u-boot, which
means you have to open the device and attach to the serial
console. The TFTP update procedure does *not* accept the
published vendor firmware binaries. However, it allows to
flash kernel + rootfs binaries, and this works if you have
a backup of the original contents of the flash. It's probably
possible to create special image out of the vendor binaries
and use that as recovery image.

This drops the shebang from all target files for /lib and
/etc/uci-defaults folders, as these are sourced and the shebang
is useless.
While at it, fix the executable flag on a few of these files.
This does not touch ar71xx, as this target is just used for
backporting now and applying cosmetic changes would just complicate

The uci config section network.globals set up in /bin/config_generate
will only be created if /proc/sys/net/ipv6 exists.
Correspondingly, lacking IPv6 support, the command
uci set network.globals.packet_steering=1
will fail with "uci: Invalid argument" as the network.globals config
has not been set up.
Fix that by adding the setup there as well.
