5d91b5a636 ramips: add support for ASUS RT-AC1200-V2
Hardware specifications:
SoC: MT7628DAN MIPS_24KEc@580MHz 2.4G-n 2x2
WiFi: MT7613BEN 5G-ac 160MHz 2x2
Switch: 4x100M built-in SoC
Flash: 16MB W25Q128JVSQ SPI-NOR
DRAM: 64MB built-in SoC

MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware:
use address source
Lan/Wan/2G *:60 factory 0x4 (label)
5G *:64 factory 0x8000

Serial console: 57600,8n1

Installation:

Asus windows recovery tool:

install the Asus firmware restoration utility
unplug the router, hold the reset button while powering it on
release when the power LED flashes slowly
specify a static IP on your computer:
IP address: 192.168.1.75
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
start the Asus firmware restoration utility, specify the factory image
and press upload
do NOT power off the device after OpenWrt has booted until the LED flashing
after flashing OpenWrt, there will be first no 5GHz Wifi available probably,
wait until blinking finishes and do a reboot
TFTP Recovery method:

set computer to a static ip, 192.168.1.75
connect computer to the LAN 1 port of the router
hold the reset button while powering on the router for a few seconds
send firmware image using a tftp client; i.e from linux:
$ tftp
tftp> binary
tftp> connect 192.168.1.1
tftp> put factory.bin
tftp> quit
do NOT power off the device after OpenWrt has booted until the LED flashing
after flashing OpenWrt, there will be first no 5GHz Wifi available probably,

3c4810fecc ramips: add support for Asus RT-AC1200
Asus RT-AC1200 is a 2.4/5GHz dual band AC router,
based on MediaTek MT7628AN.

Specification:
* SoC: MT7628AN
* RAM: DDR2 64 MiB
* Flash: 16 MiB NOR (W25Q128BV)
* Wi-Fi:
  * 2.4GHz: SoC Built-in
  * 5GHz: MT7612EN
* Ethernet: 5x 100Mbps
  * Switch: SoC built-in
* USB: 1x 2.0

Flash Layout:
 0x0000000-0x0030000 : "bootloader"
 0x0030000-0x0040000 : "nvram"
 0x0040000-0x0050000 : "factory"
 0x0050000-0x1000000 : "firmware"

MAC address:
 LAN: factory 0x28
 WAN: factory 0x22
 2.4G: factory 0x4
 5G: factory 0x8004

Installation via **recovery** mode:
1. Download the Asus recovery firmware (windows) tool from
   http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/LiveUpdate/Release/Wireless/Rescue.zip
2. Set your ethernet IP manually 192.168.1.5 / 255.255.255.0 with NO
   gateway.
3. Plug in your ethernet to LAN port 1 on the router.
4. Load up the recovery software with the firmware file, but don't press
   "Upload" yet.
5. Plug in the router to power WHILE HOLDING the reset button in. While
   CONTINUING to hold the button, select "Upload" Continue to hold the
   reset button in until it finishes and verifies!
6. If that doesn't work try pressing "Upload" first just before you do
   step 5. At some point while holding reset the rescue tool will finally
   detect and upload the firmware. That's when you can let go of the
   reset button.
7. The router will reboot and not much will happen. Wait a minute or 2.
8. Power off and on the router again. Voila. Set everything your Ethernet
   IP back to DHCP (automatically) and you're good to go.

Revert to stock firmware:
1. Install stock image via recovery mode.
