Specification:
- MT7986 CPU using 2.4GHz and 5GHz WiFi (both AX)
- MT7531 switch
- 512MB RAM
- 128MB NAND flash (MX35LF1GE4AB-Z4I) with two UBI partitions with identical size
- 1 multi color LED (red, green, blue, white) connected via GCA230718 (Same as D-Link M30 A1)
- 3 buttons (WPS, reset, LED on/off)
- 1x 2.5 Gbit WAN port with Maxlinear GPY211C
- 4x 1 Gbit LAN ports
Disassembly:
- There are five screws at the bottom: 2 under the rubber feet, 3 under the label.
- After removing the screws, the white plastic part can be shifted out of the blue part.
- Be careful because the antennas are mounted on the side and the top of the white part.
Serial Interface
- The serial interface can be connected to the 4 pin holes next to/under the antenna cables.
- Note that there is another set of 4 pin holes on the side of the board, it's not used.
- Pins (from front to rear):
- 3.3V (do not connect)
- TX
- RX
- GND
- Settings: 115200, 8N1
MAC addresses:
- MAC address is stored in partition "Odm" at offset 0x81 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:52)
- MAC address on the device label is ODM + 1 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:53)
- WAN MAC is the one from the ODM partition (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:52)
- LAN MAC is the one from the ODM partition + 1 (for example XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:53)
- WLAN MAC (2.4 GHz) is the one from the ODM partition + 2 (for example (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:54)
- WLAN MAC (5 GHz) is the one from the ODM partition + 5 (for example (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:57)
Flashing via OEM web interface:
- Currently not supported because image crypto is not known
Flashing via recovery web interface:
- This is only working if the first partition is active because recovery images are always flashed to the active partition and OpenWrt can only be executed from the first partition
- Use a Chromium based browser, otherwise firmware upgrade might not work
- Recovery web interface is accessible via 192.168.200.1 after keeping the reset button pressed during start of the device until the LED blinks red
- Upload the recovery image, this will take some time. LED will continue flashing red during the update process
- The after flashing, the recovery web interface redirects to http://192.168.0.1. This can be ignored. OpenWrt is accessible via 192.168.1.1 after flashing
- If the first partition isn't the active partition, OpenWrt will hang during the boot process. In this case:
- Download the recovery image from https://github.com/RolandoMagico/openwrt/releases/tag/M60-Recovery-UBI-Switch (UBI switch image)
- Enable recovery web interface again and load the UBI switch image. This image works on the second partition of the M60
- OpenWrt should boot now as expected. After booting, flash the normal OpenWrt sysupgrade image (for example in the OpenWrt web interface)
- Flashing a sysupgrade image from the UBI switch image will make the first partition the active partition and from now on, default OpenWrt images can be used
Flashing via Initramfs:
- Before switching to OpenWrt, ensure that both partitions contain OEM firmware.
- This can be achieved by re-flashing the same OEM firmware version again via the OEM web interface.
- Flashing via OEM web interface will automatically flash the currently not active partition.
- Open router, connect serial interface
- Start a TFTP server at 192.168.200.2 and provide the initramfs image there
- When starting the router, select "7. Load Image" in U-Boot
- Settings for load address, load method can be kept as they are
- Specify host and router IP address if you use different ones than the default (Router 192.168.200.1, TFTP server 192.168.200.2)
- Enter the file name of the initramfs image
- Confirm "Run loaded data now?" question after loading the image with "Y"
- OpenWrt initramfs will start now
- Before flashing OpenWrt, create a backup of the "ubi" partition. It is required when reverting back to OEM
- Flash sysupgrade image to flash, during flashing the U-Boot variable sw_tryactive will be set to 0
- During next boot, U-Boot tries to boot from the ubi partition. If it fails, it will switch to the ubi1 partition
Reverting back to OEM:
- Boot the initramfs image as described in "Flashing via Initramfs" above
- Copy the backed up ubi partition to /tmp (e.g. by using SCP)
- Write the backup to the UBI partition: mtd write /tmp/OpenWrt.mtd4.ubi.bin /dev/mtd4
- Reboot the device, OEM firmware will start now

This commit adds support for two variants of the already supported router
Acer Predator Connect W6: The Acer Predator Connect W6d (W6 without 6 GHz
wifi) and the Acer Connect Vero W6m (W6 without 2.5G eth1 port, usb3 port,
and the 6 on-board gpio RGB LEDs, and with a KTD2026 RGB LED controller
instead of the KTD2061 LED controller of the W6/W6d).

In order to prepare OpenWrt support for other Acer W6 devices and to adapt
the procedure to read and set mac addresses which other devices of the same
target are using (instead of needing an additional script and creating an
additional structure in the file system), this commit
- reads device mac addresses from u-boot environment
- avoids the detour via the file system to set the mac addresses
- drops redundant file /lib/preinit/05_extract_factory_data.sh
The idea and the implementation were thankfully taken from PR #16410.
This is the second of four commits into which the original commit was split

Unique to AP15C:
- Reset button
- External RJ45 serial console port
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_AP15C'
- 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.

Add u-boot support based on the kernel dts introduced in d1016446 and
the GL-MT6000 u-boot support in fe10f974.
The pcie-mediatek-gen3 kernel driver doesn't like hotplug, so to work in
PCIe mode, the 5G modem on this device needs to be switched on by u-boot
before starting the kernel. Include an init_modem step in the boot_system
action to set the relevant gpios. (The factory bootloader does the same,
using Mediatek SDK-specific gpio_power_clr and gpio_pull_up.)
Ideally the modem would be started using gpio-hog in the device tree, but
this will need to wait until mediatek gpio-hog support is fixed upstream:
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/6ef2583e85eea60560d7776377d662779e7c44e5.1722419839.git.chris@arachsys.com/
The bootloader can be replaced using the built-in web interface of the
factory bootloader. Hold the reset button for five seconds while powering
on the device and it will boot into a recovery http server.
http://192.168.1.1/uboot.html and http://192.168.1.1/bl2.html can then
be used to upload openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-bl31-uboot.fip
and openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-preloader.bin respectively.
Alternatively, from a root shell on the running system, unlock the boot
partition with
echo 0 >/sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
then write openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-bl31-uboot.fip to
/dev/mmcblk0p4 and openwrt-mediatek-filogic-glinet_gl-x3000-preloader.bin
to /dev/mmcblk0boot0.

Known issue
-----------
2.4 GHz WLAN doesn't start with mt76 driver.
Probable reason:
Original Netis N6 EEPROM contains wrong MT_EE_WIFI_CONF value (0xd2).
Other routers with the same WLAN hardware (e.g., Routerich AX1800)
have MT_EE_WIFI_CONF = 0x92.
Workaround (already included in this commit):
Extract EEPROM to a file at the first time boot and change
MT_EE_WIFI_CONF (offset 0x190) value from 0xd2 to 0x92. See
/etc/hotplug.d/firmware/11-mt76-caldata for details.

Firmware:
The vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt (Reboot) with a kernel version
4.4.93. The flash is arranged as below and there is a dual boot
mechanism alternating between rootfs_0 and rootfs_1.
+-------+------+------+-----------+-----------+
| | env1 | env2 | rootfs_0 | rootfs_1 |
| +------+------+-----------+-----------+

+-------+-------------------------------------+
|U-Boot | UBI |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
|mtd0 | mtd1 |
+-------+-------------------------------------+
| NAND |
+---------------------------------------------+
In OpenWrt rootfs_0 will be used as a boot partition that will contain the
kernel and the dtb. The squashfs rootfs and overlay are standard OpenWrt
behaviour.
+-------+------+------+-----------+--------+------------+
| | env1 | env2 | rootfs_0 | rootfs | rootfs_data|

|U-Boot | UBI |
+-------+-----------------------------------------------+
|mtd0 | mtd1 |

| NAND |
+-------------------------------------------------------+
U-boot:
With proper serial access booting can be halted to U-boot by pressing any
key. TFTP and flash writes are available, but only the first one has been
tested.
NOTE: Recovery mode can be accessed by holding down the reset button while
powering on the device. The led 'Update' will show a solid green light
once ready. A web server will be running at 192.168.1.1:80 and it will
allow flashing a firmware package. You can cycle between rootfs_0 and
rootfs_1 by pressing the reset button once.
Root password:
With the vendor web UI create a backup of your settings and download the
archive to your computer. Within the archive in the file
/etc/shadow replace the password hash for root with that of a password you
know. Restore the configuration with the vendor web UI and you will have
changed the root password.
SSH access:
You might need to enable the SSH service for LAN interface as by default
it's enabled for WAN only.
Installing OpenWrt:
With the vendor web UI install the OpenWrt factory image. Alternatively,
ssh to the device and use sysupgrade -n from cli.
Finalize by installing the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to get a fully
functioning system.
Reverting to the vendor firmware:
Boot with OpenWrt initramfs image
- Remove volumes rootfs_0, rootfs and rootfs_data and create vendor
volumes.
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 2
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 3
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -n 4
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_0 -S 990
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N rootfs_1 -S 990
Power off and enter to the U-boot recovery to install the vendor
firmware.
Known issues:
- MACs for wifi are stored in currently unknown place but it seems
to persist over power-off. They might be stored on the chip.

Huawei AP6010DN is a dual-band, dual-radio 802.11a/b/g/n 2x2 MIMO
enterprise access point with one Gigabit Ethernet port and PoE
support.
Hardware highlights:
- CPU: AR9344 SoC at 480MHz
- RAM: 128MB DDR2
- Flash: 32MB SPI-NOR
- Wi-Fi 2.4GHz: AR9344-internal radio
- Wi-Fi 5GHz: AR9580 PCIe WLAN SoC
- Ethernet: 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet through Atheros AR8035 PHY
- PoE: yes
- Standalone 12V/2A power input
- Serial console externally available through RJ45 port
- External watchdog: CAT706SVI (1.6s timeout)
Serial console:
9600n8 (9600 baud, no stop bits, no parity, 8 data bits)
MAC addresses:
Each device has 32 consecutive MAC addresses allocated by
the vendor, which don't overlap between devices.
This was confirmed with multiple devices with consecutive
serial numbers.
The MAC address range starts with the address on the label.
To be able to distinguish between the interfaces,
the following MAC address scheme is used:
- eth0 = label MAC
- radio0 (Wi-Fi 2.4GHz) = label MAC + 1
- radio1 (Wi-Fi 5GHz) = label MAC + 2
Installation:
0. Connect some sort of RJ45-to-USB adapter to "Console" port of the AP
1. Power up the AP
2. At prompt "Press f or F to stop Auto-Boot in 3 seconds",
do what they say.
Log in with default admin password "admin@huawei.com".
3. Boot the OpenWrt initramfs from TFTP using the hidden script "run ramboot".
Replace IP address as needed:
> setenv serverip 192.168.1.10
> setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
> setenv rambootfile openwrt-ath79-generic-huawei_ap6010dn-initramfs-kernel.bin
> saveenv
> run ramboot
4. Optional but recommended as the factory firmware cannot be downloaded publicly:
Back up contents of "firmware" partition using the web interface or ssh:
$ ssh root@192.168.1.1 cat /dev/mtd11 > huawei_ap6010dn_fw_backup.bin
5. Run sysupgrade using sysupgrade image. OpenWrt
shall boot from flash afterwards.
Return to factory firmware (using firmware upgrade package downloaded from non-public Huawei website):
1. Start a TFTP server in the directory where
the firmware upgrade package is located
2. Boot to u-boot as described above
3. Install firmware upgrade package and format the config partitions:
> update system FatAP6X10XN_SOMEVERSION.bin
> format_fs
Return to factory firmware (from previously created backup):
1. Copy over the firmware partition backup to /tmp,
for example using scp
2. Use sysupgrade with force to restore the backup:
sysupgrade -F huawei_ap6010dn_fw_backup.bin
3. Boot AP to U-Boot as described above
Quirks and known issues:
- The stock firmware has a semi dual boot concept where the primary
kernel uses a squashfs as root partition and the secondary kernel uses
an initramfs. This dual boot concept is circumvented on purpose to gain
more flash space and since the stock firmware's flash layout isn't
compatible with mtdsplit.
- The external watchdog's timeout of 1.6s is very hard to satisfy
during bootup. This is why the GPIO15 pin connected to the watchdog input
is configured directly in the LZMA loader to output the AHB_CLK/2 signal
which keeps the watchdog happy until the wdt-gpio kernel driver takes
over. Because it would also take too long to read the whole kernel image
from flash, the uImage header only includes the loader which then reads
the kernel image from flash after GPIO15 is configured.

Notice: while I was successfull at activating ssh (as described
here:
https://www.lisenet.com/2023/gaining-ssh-access-to-tp-link-re200-wi-fi-range-extender/)
Unfortunately I haven't found the correct root password.
Looks like they are using a static password
(md5crypt, salt + 21 characters) that is not the web
interface admin password.
The TP-LINK RE900XD looks like the very same device,
according to the pictures and the firmware.
But I haven't checked if the OpenWrt firmware works as well
on that device.
The second ubi partition (ubi1) is empty and there is no known
dual-partition mechanism, neither in u-boot nor in the stock firmware.

Before flashing, be sure to have a copy of factory firmware, in case You
wish to revert to original firmware.
All described procedures were done in following environment:
ROM Version: SonicROM (U-Boot) 8.0.0.0-11o
SafeMode Firmware Version: SonicOS 8.0.0.0-14o
Firmware Version: SonicOS 9.0.1.0
In case of other versions, following installation instructions might be
ineffective.
Installation
1. Prepare TFTP server with OpenWrt sysupgrade image and rename that
image to "sp_fw.bin".
2. Connect to one of LAN ports.
3. Connect to serial port.
4. Hold the reset button (small through hole on side of the unit),
power on the device and when prompted to stop autoboot, hit any key.
The held button can now be released.
5. Alter U-Boot environment with following commands:
setenv bootcmd bootm 0x9F110000
saveenv
6. Adjust "ipaddr" (access point, default is 192.168.1.1) and "serverip"
(TFTP server, default is 192.168.1.10) addresses in U-Boot
environment, then run following commands:
tftp 0x80060000 sp_fw.bin
erase 0x9F110000 +0x1EF0000
cp.b 0x80060000 0x9F110000 $filesize
7. After successful flashing, execute:
boot
8. The access point will boot to OpenWrt. Wait few minutes, until the
wrench LED will stop blinking, then it's ready for configuration.
Known issues
Initramfs image can't be bigger than specified kernel size, otherwise
bootloader will throw LZMA decompressing error. Switching to lzma-loader
should workaround that.
This device has Winbond 25Q256FVFG and doesn't have reliable reset, which
causes hang on reboot, thus broken-flash-reset needs to be added. This
property addition causes dispaly of "scary" warning on each boot, take
this warnig into consideration.

Flash instructions:
========
1. Manually upgrade firmware using openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin image.
More details can be found here: https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=47547
After first boot check actual partition:
- fw_printenv -n boot_part
and install firmware on second partition using command in case of 2:
- mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
and in case of 1:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel
2. Installation using serial connection from OEM firmware (default login: root, password: admin):
- fw_printenv -n boot_part
In case of 2:
- flash_erase /dev/mtd21 0 0
- nandwrite -p /dev/mtd21 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin
or in case of 1:
- flash_erase /dev/mtd23 0 0
- nandwrite -p /dev/mtd23 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin
After first boot install firmware on second partition:
- mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
or:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel
3. Installation from initramfs image using USB drive:
Put the initramfs image on the USB drive:
- dd bs=1M if=openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-initramfs-uImage.itb of=/dev/sda
Stop u-boot and run:
- usb start && usbboot $loadaddr 0 && bootm $loadaddr
Write firmware to the flash from initramfs:
- mtd -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
and:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel
4. Back to the OEM firmware:
- mtd -e kernel -n write FW_MX8500_1.0.11.208937_prod.img kernel
and:
- mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write FW_MX8500_1.0.11.208937_prod.img alt_kernel
5. USB recovery:
Put the initramfs image on the USB:
- dd bs=1M if=openwrt-qualcommax-ipq807x-linksys_mx8500-initramfs-uImage.itb of=/dev/sda
Set u-boot env:
- fw_setenv bootusb 'usb start && usbboot $loadaddr 0 && bootm $loadaddr'
- fw_setenv bootcmd 'run bootusb; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'
AQR firmware:
========
1. Firmware loading:
To properly load the firmware and initialize AQR PHY, we must use the u-boot aq_load_fw function.
To do this, you need to modify u-boot env:
With USB recovery:
- fw_setenv bootcmd 'aq_load_fw; run bootusb; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'
and without:
- fw_setenv bootcmd 'aq_load_fw; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'
2. Firmware updating:
Newer firmware (AQR-G4_v5.6.5-AQR_WNC_SAQA-L2_GT_ID45287_VER24005.cld) is available in the latest OEM firmware.
To load this firmware via u-boot, we need to add the MBN header and update 0:ethphyfw partition.
For MBN header we can use script from this repository: https://github.com/testuser7/aqr_mbn_tool
- python aqr_mbn_tool.py AQR-G4_v5.6.5-AQR_WNC_SAQA-L2_GT_ID45287_VER24005.cld
To update partition we need to install kmod-mtd-rw package first:
- insmod mtd-rw.ko i_want_a_brick=1
- mtd -e /dev/mtd26 -n write aqr_fw.mbn /dev/mtd26

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
"192.168.1.1/index.htm"
Select the factory.bin image and upload
wait about 3 minutes
**Return to OEM:**
If you have a serial cable, see Serial Failsafe instructions
otherwise, uboot-env can be used to make uboot load the failsafe image
ssh into openwrt and run
`fw_setenv rootfs_checksum 0`
reboot, wait 3 minutes
connect to ethernet and navigate to 192.168.1.1/index.htm
select OEM firmware image from Engenius and click upgrade
**TFTP recovery:**
Requires serial console, reset button does nothing
rename initramfs.bin to '0101A8C0.img'
make available on TFTP server at 192.168.1.101
power board, interrupt boot
execute tftpboot and bootm 0x81000000
**Format of OEM firmware image:**
The OEM software of ENS1750 is a heavily modified version
of Openwrt Kamikaze. One of the many modifications
is to the sysupgrade program. Image verification is performed
simply by the successful ungzip and untar of the supplied file
and name check and header verification of the resulting contents.
To form a factory.bin that is accepted by OEM Openwrt build,
the kernel and rootfs must have specific names...
openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ens1750-uImage-lzma.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-generic-ens1750-root.squashfs
and begin with the respective headers (uImage, squashfs).
Then the files must be tarballed and gzipped.
The resulting binary is actually a tar.gz file in disguise.
This can be verified by using binwalk on the OEM firmware images,
ungzipping then untaring.
Newer EnGenius software requires more checks but their script
includes a way to skip them, otherwise the tar must include
a text file with the version and md5sums in a deprecated format.
The OEM upgrade script is at /etc/fwupgrade.sh.
OKLI kernel loader is required because the OEM software
expects the kernel to be no greater than 1536k
and the factory.bin 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`.
Therefore the PLL registers for GMAC0
do not need the bits for delay on the MAC side.
This is possible due to fixes in at803x driver
since Linux 5.1 and 5.3

Hardware:
=========
SOC: Qualcomm IPQ4019
WiFi 1: QCA4019 IEEE 802.11b/g/n
WiFi 2: QCA4019 IEEE 802.11a/n/ac
WiFi 3: QCA9886 IEEE 802.11a/n/ac
Bluetooth: Qualcomm CSR8510 (A10)
Zigbee: Silicon Labs EM3581 NCP + Skyworks SE2432L
Ethernet: Qualcomm Atheros QCA8072 (2-port)
Flash: Samsung KLM4G1FEPD (4GB eMMC)
RAM (NAND): 512MB
LED Controller: NXP PCA9633 (I2C)
Buttons: Single reset button (GPIO).
Ethernet:
=========
The device has 2 ethernet ports, configured as follows by default:
- left port: WAN
- right port: LAN
Wifi:
=====
The Wifi radios are turned off by default. To configure the router,
you will need to connect your computer to the LAN port of the device.
Bluetooth and Zigbee:
=====================
Configuration included but not tested.
Storage:
========
For compatibility with stock firmware, all of OpenWrt runs in a 136 MiB
eMMC partition (of which there are two copies, see below). You can also
use partition /dev/mmcblk0p19 "syscfg" (3.4 GiB) any way you see fit.
During very limited tests, stock firmware did not mount this partition.
However, backing up its stock content before use is recommended anyway.
Firmware:
=========
The device uses a dual firmware mechanism: it automatically reverts to
the previous firmware after 3 failed boot attempts.
You can switch to the inactive firmware copy by changing the "boot_part"
U-Boot environment variable. You can also do it by turning on the device
for a couple of seconds and then back off, 3 times in a row.
Installation:
=============
OpenWrt's "factory" image can be installed via the stock web UI:
1. Login to the UI. (The default password is printed on the label.)
2. Enter support mode by clicking on the "CA" link at the bottom.
3. Click "Connectivity", "Choose file", "Start", and ignore warnings.
This port is based on work done by flipy (https://github.com/flipy).
