TP-Link and ASUS OnHub devices are very similar, sharing many of the
same characteristics and much of their Device Tree. They both run a
version of ChromeOS for their factory firmware, and so installation
instructions look very similar to Google Wifi [1].
Things I've tested, and are working:
* Ethernet
* WiFi (2.4 and 5 GHz)
* LEDs
* USB
* eMMC
* Serial console (if you wire it up yourself)
* 2x CPU
* Speaker
== Installation instructions summary ==
1. Flash *-factory.bin to a USB drive (e.g., with `dd`)
2. Insert USB drive, to boot OpenWrt from USB
3. Copy the same *-factory.bin over to device, and flash it to eMMC to
make OpenWrt permanent
== Developer mode, booting from USB (Step 2) ==
To enter Developer Mode and boot OpenWrt from a USB stick:
1. Unplug power
2. Gain access to the "developer switch" through the bottom of the
device
3. Hold down the "reset switch" (near the USB port / power plug)
4. Plug power back in
5. The LED on the device should turn white, then blink orange, then
red. Release the reset switch.
6. Insert USB drive with OpenWrt factory.bin
7. Press the hidden developer switch under the device to boot to USB;
you should see some activity lights (if you have any) on your USB
drive
8. Depending on your configuration, the router's LED(s) should come on.
You're now running OpenWrt off a USB stick.
These instructions are derived from:
https://www.exploitee.rs/index.php/Rooting_The_Google_OnHub#Enabling_%22Developer_Mode%22_on_the_OnHubhttps://www.exploitee.rs/index.php/Asus_OnHub#Enabling_%22Developer_Mode%22_on_the_OnHub
~~Finding the developer switch:~~ for TP-Link, the developer switch is
on the bottom of the device, underneath some of the rubber padding and a
screw. For ASUS, remove the entire base, via 4 screws under the rubber
feet. See the Exploitee instructions for more info and photos.
== Making OpenWrt permanent (on eMMC) (Step 3) ==
Once you're running OpenWrt via USB:
1. Connect Ethernet to the LAN port; router's LAN address should be at
192.168.1.1
2. Connect another system to the router's LAN, and copy the factory.bin
image over, via SCP and SSH:
scp -O openwrt-ipq806x-chromium-tplink_onhub-squashfs-factory.bin root@192.168.1.1:
ssh root@192.168.1.1 -C "dd if=/dev/zero bs=512 seek=7552991 of=/dev/mmcblk0 count=33 && \
dd if=/root/openwrt-ipq806x-chromium-tplink_onhub-squashfs-factory.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0"
3. Reboot and remove the USB drive.
== Developer mode beep ==
Note that every time you boot the OnHub in developer mode, the device
will play a loud "beep" after a few seconds. This is described in the
Chromium docs [2], and is intended to make it clear that the device is
not running Google software. It is nontrivial to completely disable this
beep, although it's possible to "acknowledge" developer mode (and skip
the beep) by using a USB keyboard to press CTRL+D every time you boot.

Similar to commit 4d8b42d8a7 ("ipq40xx: point to externally compiled
dtbs in recipes").
Currently, we patch our DTS files into the kernel source tree, so the
kernel build process will produce DTBs for us. The kernel-to-DTS
dependency can cause buildroot to perform excessive rebuilds of the
kernel though, which slows down device development iteration.
Buildroot also compiles DTBs on its own, to
$(KDIR)/image-$(DEVICE_DTS).dtb. With small adjustments, we can leverage
this, and stop patching DTS files into the kernel Makefile at the same
time.

emmc_do_upgrade() relies on identify() from the nand.sh upgrade helper.
This only works because FEATURES=emmc targets also tend to include

Enabling kernel symbol CONFIG_NVMEM_U_BOOT_ENV allows to use u-boot
environement variable ethaddr with nvmen. That way it is possible to assign
the MAC address to the ethernet device driver.
Example of usage in dts:
....
partition@600000 {
compatible = "u-boot,env";
label = "0:appsblenv";
reg = <0x600000 0x10000>;
macaddr_lan: ethaddr {
};
};
....
&dp5 {
status = "okay";
phy-handle = <&qca8081>;
label = "wan";
nvmem-cells = <&macaddr_lan>;
nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address-ascii";
mac-address-increment = <1>;
};

• RAM: 1024MB of DDR3
• Storage: 256MB Nand
• Ethernet: 4x 1G RJ45 ports (QCA8075) + 1 2.5G Port (QCA8081)
• WLAN:
2.4GHz: Qualcomm QCN5024 2x2 802.11b/g/n/ax 1174 Mbps PHY rate
5GHz: Qualcomm QCN5054 4x4 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax 2402 PHY rate
• 1x USB 3.0
• 1 gpio-controlled dual color led (blue/red)
• Buttons: 1x soft reset / 1x WPS
• Power: 12V DC jack
A poulated serial header is onboard (J1004)
the connector size is a 4-pin 2.0 mm JST PH.
RX/TX is working, u-boot bootwait is active, secure boot is enabled.
Notes:
- Serial is completely deactivated in the stock firmware image.
- This commit adds only single partition support, that means
sysupgrade is upgrading the current rootfs partition.
- Installation can be done by serial connection or
SSH access on OEM firmware
Installation Instructions:
Most part of the installation is performed from an initramfs image
running OpenWrt, and there are two options to boot it.
Boot initramfs option 1: Using serial connection (3.3V)
1. Stop auto boot to get to U-boot shell
2. Transfer initramfs image to device
(openwrt-ipq807x-generic-dynalink_dl-wrx36-initramfs-uImage.itb)
Tested using TFTP and a FAT-formatted USB flash drive.
3. Boot the initramfs image
# bootm
Boot initramfs option 2: From SSH access on OEM firmware
1. Copy the initramfs image to a FAT-formatted flash drive
(tested on single-partition drive) and connect it to device USB port.
2. Change boot command so it loads the initramfs image on next boot
Fallback to OEM firmware is provided.
# fw_setenv bootcmd 'usb start && fatload usb 0:1 0x44000000 openwrt-ipq807x-generic-dynalink_dl-wrx36-initramfs-uImage.itb && bootm 0x44000000; bootipq'
3. Reboot the device to boot the initramfs
# reboot
Install OpenWrt from initramfs image:
1. Use SCP (or other way) to transfer OpenWrt factory image
2. Connect to device using SSH (on a LAN port)
3. Check MTD partition table.
rootfs and rootfs_1 should be mtd18 and mtd20
depending on current OEM slot.
# cat /proc/mtd
4. Do a ubiformat to both rootfs partitions:
# ubiformat /dev/mtd18 -y -f /path_to/factory_image
# ubiformat /dev/mtd20 -y -f /path_to/factory_image
5. Set U-boot env variable: mtdids
# fw_setenv mtdids 'nand0=nand0'
6. Get offset of mtd18 to determine current OEM slot
- If current OEM slot is 1, offset is 16777216 (0x1000000)
- If current OEM slot is 2, offset is 127926272 (0x7a00000)
# cat /sys/class/mtd/mtd18/offset
7. Set U-boot env variable: mtdparts
If current OEM slot is 1, run:
# fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=nand0:0x6100000@0x1000000(fs),0x6100000@0x7a00000(fs_1)'
If current OEM slot is 2, run:
# fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=nand0:0x6100000@0x7a00000(fs),0x6100000@0x1000000(fs_1)'
8. Set U-boot env variable: bootcmd
# fw_setenv bootcmd 'setenv bootargs console=ttyMSM0,115200n8 ubi.mtd=rootfs rootfstype=squashfs rootwait; ubi part fs; ubi read 0x44000000 kernel; bootm 0x44000000#config@rt5010w-d350-rev0'
9. Reboot the device
# reboot

upgrading the current rootfs partition

Installation instructions:
Obtaining SSH access is mandatory
https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/xiaomi/ax9000#obtain_ssh_access
Installation is done by the ubiformat method, through SSH:
1. Open an SSH shell to the router
2. Copy the file openwrt-ipq807x-generic-xiaomi_ax9000-initramfs-factory.ubi to the /tmp directory
3. Check which rootfs partition is your router booted in (0 = rootfs | 1 = rootfs_1):
nvram get flag_boot_rootfs
4. Find the rootfs and rootfs_1 mtd indexes respectively:
cat /proc/mtd
Please confirm if mtd21 and mtd22 are the correct indexes from above!
5. Use the command ubiformat to flash the opposite mtd with UBI image:
If nvram get flag_boot_rootfs returned 0:
ubiformat /dev/mtd22 -y -f /tmp/openwrt-ipq807x-generic-xiaomi_ax9000-initramfs-factory.ubi && nvram set flag_boot_rootfs=1 && nvram set flag_last_success=1 && nvram commit
otherwise:
ubiformat /dev/mtd21 -y -f /tmp/openwrt-ipq807x-generic-xiaomi_ax9000-initramfs-factory.ubi && nvram set flag_boot_rootfs=0 && nvram set flag_last_success=0 && nvram commit
6. Reboot the device by:
reboot
Previous commands flashed an ubinized OpenWrt initramfs that will serve as the intermediate step
since OpenWrt uses unified rootfs in order to fully utilize NAND and provide enough space for packages.
Continue in order to pernamently flash OpenWrt:
7. SSH into OpenWrt from one of the LAN ports
8. Copy the file openwrt-ipq807x-generic-xiaomi_ax9000-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin to the /tmp directory
9. Sysupgrade the device:
sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ipq807x-generic-xiaomi_ax9000-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
Device will reboot with OpenWrt, and then sysupgrade can be used to upgrade the device when desired.

QNAP 301w is a AX WIFI router with 4 1G and 2 10G ports.
Specifications:
• CPU: Qualcomm IPQ8072A Quad core Cortex-A53 2.2GHz
• RAM: 1024MB of DDR3
• Storage: 4GB eMMC (contains kernel and rootfs) / 8MB NOR
(contains art and u-boot-env)
• Ethernet: 4x 1G RJ45 ports + 2 10G ports (Aquantia AQR113C)
• WLAN:
2.4GHz: Qualcomm QCN5024 4x4 (40 MHz) 802.11b/g/n/ax 1174 Mbps PHY rate
5GHz: Qualcomm QCN5054 4x4 (80 MHz) or 2x2 (160 MHz) 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax 2402 PHY rate
• LEDs:
7 x GPIO-controlled dual color LEDs + 2 GPIO-controlled single color LEDs
• Buttons: 1x soft reset / 1x WPS
• Power: 12V DC jack
A poulated serial header is onboard.
RX/TX is working, bootwait is active, secure boot is not enabled.
SSH can be activated in the stock firmware, hold WPS button til the second beep
(yes the router has a buzzer)
SSH is available on port 22200, login with user admin and
password "mac address of the router".
Installation Instructions:
• obtain serial access (https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/qnap/301w#serial)
• stop auto boot
• setenv serverip 192.168.10.1
• setenv ipaddr 192.168.10.10
• tftpboot the initramfs image
(openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb)
• bootm
• make sure that current_entry is set to "0":
"fw_printenv -n current_entry" should be print "0". If not,
do "fw_setenv current_entry 0"
• copy openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
to the device to /tmp folder
• sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
this flashes openwrt to the first kernel and rootfs partition (mmcblk0p1 / mmcblk0p4)
• reboot
Note: this leaves the second kernel / rootfs parition untouched. So if you want
to go back to stock, stop u-boot autoboot, "setenv current_entry 1" ,
"saveenv", "bootipq".
Stock firmware should start from the second partition.
Then do a firmwareupgrade in the stock gui, that should overwrite the openwrt
in the first partitions
Make 10G Aquantia phy's work:
The aquantia phy's need a firmware to work. This can either be loaded
in linux with a userspace tool or in u-boot.
I was not successfull to load the firmware in linux (aq-fw-download) but luckily there is
aq_load_fw available in u-boot. But first the right firmware needs to write
to the 0:ETHPHYFW mtd partition (it is empty on my device)
Grab the ethphy firmware image from:
https://github.com/kirdesde/nbg7815_gpl/blob/master/target/linux/ipq/ipq807x_64/prebuilt_images/AQR_ethphyfw.mbn
and scp that to openwrt.
Check the 0:ETHPHYFW partition number:
cat /proc/mtd|grep "0:ETHPHYFW", should be mtd10.
Backup the 0:ETHPHYFW partition:
dd if=/dev/mtd10 of=/tmp/ethphyfw.backup, scp ethphyfw.backup to a save place.
Write the new firmware image to the 0:ETHPHYFW partition:
"mtd erase /dev/mtd10", "mtd -n write AQR_ethphyfw.mbn /dev/mtd10".
Reboot to u-boot.
Check if aq_load_fw is working:
"aq_load_fw 0", that checks the firmware and if successfull,
loads iram and dram to one of the aquantia phy's.
If that worked, add the aq_load_fw to the bootcmd:
setenv bootcmd "aq_load_fw 0 && aq_load_fw 8 && bootipq"
"saveenv"
"reset"
Board reboots and the firmware load to both phy's should start and
then openwrt boots.
Check if the 10G ports work.
Note: lan port labeled "10G-2" is configured as WAN port as per default.
All other port are in the br-lan. This can be changed in the network config.
