mediatek: Add support for Xiaomi Redmi Router AX6S
Also known as the "Xiaomi Router AX3200" in western markets, but only the AX6S is widely installation-capable at this time. SoC: MediaTek MT7622B RAM: DDR3 256 MiB (ESMT M15T2G16128A) Flash: SPI-NAND 128 MiB (ESMT F50L1G41LB or Gigadevice GD5F1GQ5xExxG) WLAN: 2.4/5 GHz 4T4R 2.4 GHz: MediaTek MT7622B 5 GHz: MediaTek MT7915E Ethernet: 4x 10/100/1000 Mbps Switch: MediaTek MT7531B LEDs/Keys: 2/2 (Internet + System LED, Mesh button + Reset pin) UART: Marked J1 on board VCC RX GND TX, beginning from "1". 3.3v, 115200n8 Power: 12 VDC, 1.5 A Notes: U-Boot passes through the ethaddr from uboot-env partition, but also has been known to reset it to a generic mac address hardcoded in the bootloader. However, bdata is also populated with the ethernet mac addresses, but is also typically never written to. Thus this is used instead. Installation: 1. Flash stock Xiaomi "closed beta" image labelled 'miwifi_rb03_firmware_stable_1.2.7_closedbeta.bin'. (MD5: 5eedf1632ac97bb5a6bb072c08603ed7) 2. Calculate telnet password from serial number and login 3. Execute commands to prepare device nvram set ssh_en=1 nvram set uart_en=1 nvram set boot_wait=on nvram set flag_boot_success=1 nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=0 nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=0 nvram commit 4. Download and flash image On computer: python -m http.server On router: cd /tmp wget http://<IP>:8000/factory.bin mtd -r write factory.bin firmware Device should reboot at this point. Reverting to stock: Stock Xiaomi recovery tftp that accepts their signed images, with default ips of 192.168.31.1 + 192.168.31.100. Stock image should be renamed to tftp server ip in hex (Eg. C0A81F64.img) Triggered by holding reset pin on powerup. A simple implementation of this would be via dnsmasq's dhcp-boot option or using the vendor's (Windows only) recovery tool available on their website.

Connector type: Barrel
Bootloader: U-Boot (Ralink UBoot Version: 5.0.0.2)
OEM: Arcadyan WE42022
Installation
------------
1. Place *factory.trx on any web server (192.168.1.2 in this example)
2. Connect to the router using telnet shell (no password required)
3. Save MAC adresses to U-Boot environment:
uboot_env --set --name eth2macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth2 | \
awk '{print $5}')
uboot_env --set --name eth3macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep eth3 | \
awk '{print $5}')
uboot_env --set --name ra0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep ra0 | \
awk '{print $5}')
uboot_env --set --name rax0macaddr --value $(ifconfig | grep rax0 | \
awk '{print $5}')
4. Ensure that MACs were saved correctly:
uboot_env --get --name eth2macaddr
uboot_env --get --name eth3macaddr
uboot_env --get --name ra0macaddr
uboot_env --get --name rax0macaddr
5. Download and write the OpenWrt images:
cd /tmp
wget http://192.168.1.2/factory.trx
mtd_write erase /dev/mtd4
mtd_write write factory.trx /dev/mtd4
6. Set 1st boot partition and reboot:
uboot_env --set --name bootpartition --value 0
reboot
Back to Stock
-------------
1. Run in the OpenWrt shell:
fw_setenv bootpartition 1
reboot
2. Optional step. Upgrade the stock firmware with any version to
overwrite the OpenWrt in Slot 1.
MAC addresses
-------------
+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
| Interface | MAC | Source |
+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
| label | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:09 | No MACs was |
| LAN | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:09 | found on Flash |
| WAN | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:06 | [1] |
| WLAN_2g | 30:xx:xx:51:xx:07 | |
| WLAN_5g | 32:xx:xx:41:xx:07 | |
+-----------+-------------------+----------------+
[1]:
a. Label wasb't found neither in factory nor in other places.
b. MAC addresses are stored in encrypted partition "glbcfg". Encryption
key hasn't known yet. To ensure the correct MACs in OpenWrt, a hack
with saving of the MACs to u-boot-env during the installation was
applied.
c. Default Ralink ethernet MAC address (00:0C:43:28:80:36) was found in
"Factory" 0xfff0. It's the same for all Smartbox Flash devices. OEM
firmware also uses this MAC when initialazes ethernet driver. In
OpenWrt we use it only as internal GMAC (eth0), all other MACs are
unique. Therefore, there is no any barriers to the operation of several
Smartbox Flash devices even within the same broadcast domain.

ath79: add support for Araknis AN-700-AP-I-AC
FCC ID: 2AG6R-AN700APIAC
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

the other GS1900 switches.
Specifications
--------------
* Device: ZyXEL GS1900-24 v1
* SoC: Realtek RTL8382M 500 MHz MIPS 4KEc
* Flash: 16 MiB
* RAM: Winbond W9751G8KB-25 64 MiB DDR2 SDRAM
* Ethernet: 24x 10/100/1000 Mbps, 2x SFP 100/1000 Mbps
* LEDs:

* 1 button ('SW1') behind right hex grate (hardwired power-off)
* Power: 120-240V AC C13
* UART: Internal populated 10-pin header ('J5') providing RS232;
connected to SoC UART through a SIPEX 3232EC for voltage
level shifting.
* 'J5' RS232 Pinout (dot as pin 1):
2) SoC RXD
3) GND
10) SoC TXD
Serial connection parameters: 115200 8N1.
Installation
------------
OEM upgrade method:
* Log in to OEM management web interface
* Navigate to Maintenance > Firmware > Management
* If "Active Image" has the first option selected, OpenWrt will need to be
flashed to the "Active" partition. If the second option is selected,
OpenWrt will need to be flashed to the "Backup" partition.
* Navigate to Maintenance > Firmware > Upload
* Upload the openwrt-realtek-rtl838x-zyxel_gs1900-24-v1-initramfs-kernel.bin
file by your preferred method to the previously determined partition.
When prompted, select to boot from the newly flashed image, and reboot
the switch.
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
> sysupgrade /tmp/openwrt-realtek-rtl838x-zyxel_gs1900-24-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
U-Boot TFTP method:
* Configure your client with a static 192.168.1.x IP (e.g. 192.168.1.10).
* Set up a TFTP server on your client and make it serve the initramfs
image.
* Connect serial, power up the switch, interrupt U-boot by hitting the
space bar, and enable the network:
> rtk network on
> Since the GS1900-24 v1 is a dual-partition device, you want to keep the
OEM firmware on the backup partition for the time being. OpenWrt can
only be installed in the first partition anyway (hardcoded in the
DTS). To ensure we are set to boot from the first partition, issue the
following commands:
> setsys bootpartition 0
> savesys
* Download the image onto the device and boot from it:
> tftpboot 0x81f00000 192.168.1.10:openwrt-realtek-rtl838x-zyxel_gs1900-24-v1-initramfs-kernel.bin

ath79: support ZTE MF286A/R
ZTE MF286A and MF286R are indoor LTE category 6/7 CPE router with simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac plus 802.11n Wi-Fi radios and quad-port gigabit Ethernet switch, FXS and external USB 2.0 port. Hardware highlights: - CPU: QCA9563 SoC at 775MHz, - RAM: 128MB DDR2, - NOR Flash: MX25L1606E 2MB SPI Flash, for U-boot only, - NAND Flash: W25N01GV 128MB SPI NAND-Flash, for all other data, - Wi-Fi 5GHz: QCA9886 2x2 MIMO 802.11ac Wave2 radio, - WI-Fi 2.4GHz: QCA9563 3x3 MIMO 802.11n radio, - Switch: QCA8337v2 4-port gigabit Ethernet, with single SGMII CPU port, - WWAN: [MF286A] MDM9230-based category 6 internal LTE modem [MF286R] PXA1826-based category 7 internal LTE modem in extended mini-PCIE form factor, with 3 internal antennas and 2 external antenna connections, single mini-SIM slot. - FXS: one external ATA port (handled entirely by modem part) with two physical connections in parallel, - USB: Single external USB 2.0 port, - Switches: power switch, WPS, Wi-Fi and reset buttons, - LEDs: Wi-Fi, Test (internal). Rest of LEDs (Phone, WWAN, Battery, Signal state) handled entirely by modem. 4 link status LEDs handled by the switch on the backside. - Battery: 3Ah 1-cell Li-Ion replaceable battery, with charging and monitoring handled by modem. - Label MAC device: eth0 The device shares many components with previous model, MF286, differing mostly by a Wave2 5GHz radio, flash layout and internal LED color. In case of MF286A, the modem is the same as in MF286. MF286R uses a different modem based on Marvell PXA1826 chip. Internal modem of MF286A is supported via uqmi, MF286R modem isn't fully supported, but it is expected to use comgt-ncm for connection, as it uses standard 3GPP AT commands for connection establishment. Console connection: connector X2 is the console port, with the following pinout, starting from pin 1, which is the topmost pin when the board is upright: - VCC (3.3V). Do not use unless you need to source power for the converer from it. - TX - RX - GND Default port configuration in U-boot as well as in stock firmware is 115200-8-N-1. Installation: Due to different flash layout from stock firmware, sysupgrade from within stock firmware is impossible, despite it's based on QSDK which itself is based on OpenWrt. STEP 0: Stock firmware update: As installing OpenWrt cuts you off from official firmware updates for the modem part, it is recommended to update the stock firmware to latest version before installation, to have built-in modem at the latest firmware version. STEP 1: gaining root shell: Method 1: This works if busybox has telnetd compiled in the binary. If this does not work, try method 2. Using well-known exploit to start telnetd on your router - works only if Busybox on stock firmware has telnetd included: - Open stock firmware web interface - Navigate to "URL filtering" section by going to "Advanced settings", then "Firewall" and finally "URL filter". - Add an entry ending with "&&telnetd&&", for example "http://hostname/&&telnetd&&". - telnetd will immediately listen on port 4719. - After connecting to telnetd use "admin/admin" as credentials. Method 2: This works if busybox does not have telnetd compiled in. Notably, this is the case in DNA.fi firmware. If this does not work, try method 3. - Set IP of your computer to 192.168.0.22. (or appropriate subnet if changed) - Have a TFTP server running at that address - Download MIPS build of busybox including telnetd, for example from: https://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/1.21.1/busybox-mips and put it in it's root directory. Rename it as "telnetd". - As previously, login to router's web UI and navigate to "URL filtering" - Using "Inspect" feature, extend "maxlength" property of the input field named "addURLFilter", so it looks like this: <input type="text" name="addURLFilter" id="addURLFilter" maxlength="332" class="required form-control"> - Stay on the page - do not navigate anywhere - Enter "http://aa&zte_debug.sh 192.168.0.22 telnetd" as a filter. - Save the settings. This will download the telnetd binary over tftp and execute it. You should be able to log in at port 23, using "admin/admin" as credentials. Method 3: If the above doesn't work, use the serial console - it exposes root shell directly without need for login. Some stock firmwares, notably one from finnish DNA operator lack telnetd in their builds. STEP 2: Backing up original software: As the stock firmware may be customized by the carrier and is not officially available in the Internet, IT IS IMPERATIVE to back up the stock firmware, if you ever plan to returning to stock firmware. It is highly recommended to perform backup using both methods, to avoid hassle of reassembling firmware images in future, if a restore is needed. Method 1: after booting OpenWrt initramfs image via TFTP: PLEASE NOTE: YOU CANNOT DO THIS IF USING INTERMEDIATE FIRMWARE FOR INSTALLATION. - Dump stock firmware located on stock kernel and ubi partitions: ssh root@192.168.1.1: cat /dev/mtd4 > mtd4_kernel.bin ssh root@192.168.1.1: cat /dev/mtd9 > mtd9_ubi.bin And keep them in a safe place, should a restore be needed in future. Method 2: using stock firmware: - Connect an external USB drive formatted with FAT or ext4 to the USB port. - The drive will be auto-mounted to /var/usb_disk - Check the flash layout of the device: cat /proc/mtd It should show the following: mtd0: 000a0000 00010000 "u-boot" mtd1: 00020000 00010000 "u-boot-env" mtd2: 00140000 00010000 "reserved1" mtd3: 000a0000 00020000 "fota-flag" mtd4: 00080000 00020000 "art" mtd5: 00080000 00020000 "mac" mtd6: 000c0000 00020000 "reserved2" mtd7: 00400000 00020000 "cfg-param" mtd8: 00400000 00020000 "log" mtd9: 000a0000 00020000 "oops" mtd10: 00500000 00020000 "reserved3" mtd11: 00800000 00020000 "web" mtd12: 00300000 00020000 "kernel" mtd13: 01a00000 00020000 "rootfs" mtd14: 01900000 00020000 "data" mtd15: 03200000 00020000 "fota" mtd16: 01d00000 00020000 "firmware" Differences might indicate that this is NOT a MF286A device but one of other variants. - Copy over all MTD partitions, for example by executing the following: for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15; do cat /dev/mtd$i > \ /var/usb_disk/mtd$i; done "Firmware" partition can be skipped, it is a concatenation of "kernel" and "rootfs". - If the count of MTD partitions is different, this might indicate that this is not a MF286A device, but one of its other variants. - (optionally) rename the files according to MTD partition names from /proc/mtd - Unmount the filesystem: umount /var/usb_disk; sync and then remove the drive. - Store the files in safe place if you ever plan to return to stock firmware. This is especially important, because stock firmware for this device is not available officially, and is usually customized by the mobile providers. STEP 3: Booting initramfs image: Method 1: using serial console (RECOMMENDED): - Have TFTP server running, exposing the OpenWrt initramfs image, and set your computer's IP address as 192.168.0.22. This is the default expected by U-boot. You may wish to change that, and alter later commands accordingly. - Connect the serial console if you haven't done so already, - Interrupt boot sequence by pressing any key in U-boot when prompted - Use the following commands to boot OpenWrt initramfs through TFTP: setenv serverip 192.168.0.22 setenv ipaddr 192.168.0.1 tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286a-initramfs-kernel.bin bootm 0x81000000 (Replace server IP and router IP as needed). There is no emergency TFTP boot sequence triggered by buttons, contrary to MF283+. - When OpenWrt initramfs finishes booting, proceed to actual installation. Method 2: using initramfs image as temporary boot kernel This exploits the fact, that kernel and rootfs MTD devices are consecutive on NAND flash, so from within stock image, an initramfs can be written to this area and booted by U-boot on next reboot, because it uses "nboot" command which isn't limited by kernel partition size. - Download the initramfs-kernel.bin image - After backing up the previous MTD contents, write the images to the "firmware" MTD device, which conveniently concatenates "kernel" and "rootfs" partitions that can fit the initramfs image: nandwrite -p /dev/<firmware-mtd> \ /var/usb_disk/openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286a-initramfs-kernel.bin - If write is OK, reboot the device, it will reboot to OpenWrt initramfs: reboot -f - After rebooting, SSH into the device and use sysupgrade to perform proper installation. Method 3: using built-in TFTP recovery (LAST RESORT): - With that method, ensure you have complete backup of system's NAND flash first. It involves deliberately erasing the kernel. - Download "-initramfs-kernel.bin" image for the device. - Prepare the recovery image by prepending 8MB of zeroes to the image, and name it root_uImage: dd if=/dev/zero of=padding.bin bs=8M count=1 cat padding.bin openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286a-initramfs-kernel.bin > root_uImage - Set up a TFTP server at 192.0.0.1/8. Router will use random address from that range. - Put the previously generated "root_uImage" into TFTP server root directory. - Deliberately erase "kernel" partition" using stock firmware after taking backup. THIS IS POINT OF NO RETURN. - Restart the device. U-boot will attempt flashing the recovery initramfs image, which will let you perform actual installation using sysupgrade. This might take a considerable time, sometimes the router doesn't establish Ethernet link properly right after booting. Be patient. - After U-boot finishes flashing, the LEDs of switch ports will all light up. At this moment, perform power-on reset, and wait for OpenWrt initramfs to finish booting. Then proceed to actual installation. STEP 4: Actual installation: - Set your computer IP to 192.168.1.22/24 - scp the sysupgrade image to the device: scp openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286a-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin \ root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/ - ssh into the device and execute sysupgrade: sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286a-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin - Wait for router to reboot to full OpenWrt. STEP 5: WAN connection establishment Since the router is equipped with LTE modem as its main WAN interface, it might be useful to connect to the Internet right away after installation. To do so, please put the following entries in /etc/config/network, replacing the specific configuration entries with one needed for your ISP: config interface 'wan' option proto 'qmi' option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0' option auth '<auth>' # As required, usually 'none' option pincode '<pin>' # If required by SIM option apn '<apn>' # As required by ISP option pdptype '<pdp>' # Typically 'ipv4', or 'ipv4v6' or 'ipv6' For example, the following works for most polish ISPs config interface 'wan' option proto 'qmi' option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0' option auth 'none' option apn 'internet' option pdptype 'ipv4' The required minimum is: config interface 'wan' option proto 'qmi' option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0' In this case, the modem will use last configured APN from stock firmware - this should work out of the box, unless your SIM requires PIN which can't be switched off. If you have build with LuCI, installing luci-proto-qmi helps with this task. Restoring the stock firmware: Preparation: If you took your backup using stock firmware, you will need to reassemble the partitions into images to be restored onto the flash. The layout might differ from ISP to ISP, this example is based on generic stock firmware The only partitions you really care about are "web", "kernel", and "rootfs". These are required to restore the stock firmware through factory TFTP recovery. Because kernel partition was enlarged, compared to stock firmware, the kernel and rootfs MTDs don't align anymore, and you need to carve out required data if you only have backup from stock FW: - Prepare kernel image cat mtd12_kernel.bin mtd13_rootfs.bin > owrt_kernel.bin truncate -s 4M owrt_kernel_restore.bin - Cut off first 1MB from rootfs dd if=mtd13_rootfs.bin of=owrt_rootfs.bin bs=1M skip=1 - Prepare image to write to "ubi" meta-partition: cat mtd6_reserved2.bi mtd7_cfg-param.bin mtd8_log.bin mtd9_oops.bin \ mtd10_reserved3.bin mtd11_web.bin owrt_rootfs.bin > \ owrt_ubi_ubi_restore.bin You can skip the "fota" partition altogether, it is used only for stock firmware update purposes and can be overwritten safely anyway. The same is true for "data" partition which on my device was found to be unused at all. Restoring mtd5_cfg-param.bin will restore the stock firmware configuration you had before. Method 1: Using initramfs: This method is recmmended if you took your backup from within OpenWrt initramfs, as the reassembly is not needed. - Boot to initramfs as in step 3: - Completely detach ubi0 partition using ubidetach /dev/ubi0_0 - Look up the kernel and ubi partitions in /proc/mtd - Copy over the stock kernel image using scp to /tmp - Erase kernel and restore stock kernel: (scp mtd4_kernel.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/) mtd write <kernel_mtd> mtd4_kernel.bin rm mtd4_kernel.bin - Copy over the stock partition backups one-by-one using scp to /tmp, and restore them individually. Otherwise you might run out of space in tmpfs: (scp mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/) mtd write <ubiconcat0_mtd> mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin rm mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin (scp mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/) mtd write <ubiconcat1_mtd> mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin rm mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin - If the write was correct, force a device reboot with reboot -f Method 2: Using live OpenWrt system (NOT RECOMMENDED): - Prepare a USB flash drive contatining MTD backup files - Ensure you have kmod-usb-storage and filesystem driver installed for your drive - Mount your flash drive mkdir /tmp/usb mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/usb - Remount your UBI volume at /overlay to R/O mount -o remount,ro /overlay - Write back the kernel and ubi partitions from USB drive cd /tmp/usb mtd write mtd4_kernel.bin /dev/<kernel_mtd> mtd write mtd9_ubi.bin /dev/<kernel_ubi> - If everything went well, force a device reboot with reboot -f Last image may be truncated a bit due to lack of space in RAM, but this will happen over "fota" MTD partition which may be safely erased after reboot anyway. Method 3: using built-in TFTP recovery: This method is recommended if you took backups using stock firmware. - Assemble a recovery rootfs image from backup of stock partitions by concatenating "web", "kernel", "rootfs" images dumped from the device, as "root_uImage" - Use it in place of "root_uImage" recovery initramfs image as in the TFTP pre-installation method. Quirks and known issuesa - It was observed, that CH340-based USB-UART converters output garbage during U-boot phase of system boot. At least CP2102 is known to work properly. - Kernel partition size is increased to 4MB compared to stock 3MB, to accomodate future kernel updates - at this moment OpenWrt 5.10 kernel image is at 2.5MB which is dangerously close to the limit. This has no effect on booting the system - but keep that in mind when reassembling an image to restore stock firmware. - uqmi seems to be unable to change APN manually, so please use the one you used before in stock firmware first. If you need to change it, please use protocok '3g' to establish connection once, or use the following command to change APN (and optionally IP type) manually: echo -ne 'AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","<apn>' > /dev/ttyUSB0 - The only usable LED as a "system LED" is the blue debug LED hidden inside the case. All other LEDs are controlled by modem, on which the router part has some influence only on Wi-Fi LED. - Wi-Fi LED currently doesn't work while under OpenWrt, despite having correct GPIO mapping. All other LEDs are controlled by modem, including this one in stock firmware. GPIO19, mapped there only acts as a gate, while the actual signal source seems to be 5GHz Wi-Fi radio, however it seems it is not the LED exposed by ath10k as ath10k-phy0. - GPIO5 used for modem reset is a suicide switch, causing a hardware reset of whole board, not only the modem. It is attached to gpio-restart driver, to restart the modem on reboot as well, to ensure QMI connectivity after reboot, which tends to fail otherwise. - Modem, as in MF283+, exposes root shell over ADB - while not needed for OpenWrt operation at all - have fun lurking around. The same modem module is used as in older MF286. Signed-off-by: Lech Perczak <lech.perczak@gmail.com> |

- UART: through-hole on PCB ([VCC 3.3v](RX)(GND)(TX) 115200, 8n1)
- Power: 12VDC, 1A
Jailbreak Notes:
1. Get shell access.
1.1. Get yourself a wireless router that runs OpenWrt already.
1.2. On the OpenWrt router:
1.2.1. Access its console.
1.2.2. Create and edit
/usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/admin/xqsystem.lua
with the following code (exclude backquotes and line no.):
```
1 module("luci.controller.admin.xqsystem", package.seeall)
2
3 function index()
4 local page = node("api")
5 page.target = firstchild()
6 page.title = ("")
7 page.order = 100
8 page.index = true
9 page = node("api","xqsystem")
10 page.target = firstchild()
11 page.title = ("")
12 page.order = 100
13 page.index = true
14 entry({"api", "xqsystem", "token"}, call("getToken"), (""),
103, 0x08)
15 end
16
17 local LuciHttp = require("luci.http")
18
19 function getToken()
20 local result = {}
21 result["code"] = 0
22 result["token"] = "; nvram set ssh_en=1; nvram commit; sed -i
's/channel=.*/channel=\"debug\"/g' /etc/init.d/dropbear; /etc/init.d/drop
bear start;"
23 LuciHttp.write_json(result)
24 end
```
1.2.3. Browse http://{OWRT_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/api/xqsystem/token
It should give you a respond like this:
{"code":0,"token":"; nvram set ssh_en=1; nvram commit; ..."}
If so, continue; Otherwise, check the file, reboot the rout-
er, try again.
1.2.4. Set wireless network interface's IP to 169.254.31.1, turn
off DHCP of wireless interface's zone.
1.2.5. Connect to the router wirelessly, manually set your access
device's IP to 169.254.31.3, make sure
http://169.254.31.1/cgi-bin/luci/api/xqsystem/token
still have a similar result as 1.2.3 shows.
1.3. On the Xiaomi CR660x:
1.3.1. Login to the web interface. Your would be directed to a
page with URL like this:
http://{ROUTER_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/;stok={STOK}/web/home#r-
outer
1.3.2. Browse this URL with {STOK} from 1.3.1, {WIFI_NAME}
{PASSWORD} be your OpenWrt router's SSID and password:
http://{MIROUTER_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/;stok={STOK}/api/misy-
stem/extendwifi_connect?ssid={WIFI_NAME}&password={PASSWO-
RD}
It should return 0.
1.3.3. Browse this URL with {STOK} from 1.3.1:
http://{MIROUTER_ADDR}/cgi-bin/luci/;stok={STOK}/api/xqsy-
stem/oneclick_get_remote_token?username=xxx&password=xxx&-
nonce=xxx
1.4. Before rebooting, you can now access your CR660x via SSH.
For CR6606, you can calculate your root password by this project:
https://github.com/wfjsw/xiaoqiang-root-password, or at
https://www.oxygen7.cn/miwifi.
The root password for carrier-specific models should be the admi-
nistration password or the default login password on the label.
It is also feasible to change the root password at the same time
by modifying the script from step 1.2.2.
You can treat OpenWrt Router however you like from this point as
long as you don't mind go through this again if you have to expl-
oit it again. If you do have to and left your OpenWrt router unt-
ouched, start from 1.3.
2. There's no official binary firmware available, and if you lose the
content of your flash, no one except Xiaomi can help you.
Dump these partitions in case you need them:
"Bootloader" "Nvram" "Bdata" "crash" "crash_log"
"firmware" "firmware1" "overlay" "obr"
Find the corespond block device from /proc/mtd
Read from read-only block device to avoid misoperation.
It's recommended to use /tmp/syslogbackup/ as destination, since files
would be available at http://{ROUTER_ADDR}/backup/log/YOUR_DUMP
Keep an eye on memory usage though.
3. Since UART access is locked ootb, you should get UART access by modify
uboot env. Otherwise, your router may become bricked.
Excute these in stock firmware shell:
a. nvram set boot_wait=on
b. nvram set bootdelay=3
c. nvram commit
Or in OpenWrt:
a. opkg update && opkg install kmod-mtd-rw
b. insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
c. fw_setenv boot_wait on
d. fw_setenv bootdelay 3
e. rmmod mtd-rw
Migrate to OpenWrt:
1. Transfer squashfs-firmware.bin to the router.
2. nvram set flag_try_sys1_failed=0
3. nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=1
4. nvram commit
5. mtd -r write /path/to/image/squashfs-firmware.bin firmware
Additional Info:
1. CR660x series routers has a different nand layout compared to other
Xiaomi nand devices.
2. This router has a relatively fresh uboot (2018.09) compared to other
Xiaomi devices, and it is capable of booting fit image firmware.
Unfortunately, no successful attempt of booting OpenWrt fit image
were made so far. The cause is still yet to be known. For now, we use
legacy image instead.

ath79: support ZTE MF286
ZTE MF286 is an indoor LTE category 6 CPE router with simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac plus 802.11n Wi-Fi radios and quad-port gigabit Ethernet switch, FXS and external USB 2.0 port. Hardware highlights: - CPU: QCA9563 SoC at 775MHz, - RAM: 128MB DDR2, - NOR Flash: MX25L1606E 2MB SPI Flash, for U-boot only, - NAND Flash: GD5F1G04UBYIG 128MB SPI NAND-Flash, for all other data, - Wi-Fi 5GHz: QCA9882 2x2 MIMO 802.11ac radio, - WI-Fi 2.4GHz: QCA9563 3x3 MIMO 802.11n radio, - Switch: QCA8337v2 4-port gigabit Ethernet, with single SGMII CPU port, - WWAN: MDM9230-based category 6 internal LTE modem in extended mini-PCIE form factor, with 3 internal antennas and 2 external antenna connections, single mini-SIM slot. Modem model identified as MF270, - FXS: one external ATA port (handled entirely by modem part) with two physical connections in parallel, - USB: Single external USB 2.0 port, - Switches: power switch, WPS, Wi-Fi and reset buttons, - LEDs: Wi-Fi, Test (internal). Rest of LEDs (Phone, WWAN, Battery, Signal state) handled entirely by modem. 4 link status LEDs handled by the switch on the backside. - Battery: 3Ah 1-cell Li-Ion replaceable battery, with charging and monitoring handled by modem. - Label MAC device: eth0 Console connection: connector X2 is the console port, with the following pinout, starting from pin 1, which is the topmost pin when the board is upright: - VCC (3.3V). Do not use unless you need to source power for the converer from it. - TX - RX - GND Default port configuration in U-boot as well as in stock firmware is 115200-8-N-1. Installation: Due to different flash layout from stock firmware, sysupgrade from within stock firmware is impossible, despite it's based on QSDK which itself is based on OpenWrt. STEP 0: Stock firmware update: As installing OpenWrt cuts you off from official firmware updates for the modem part, it is recommended to update the stock firmware to latest version before installation, to have built-in modem at the latest firmware version. STEP 1: gaining root shell: Method 1: This works if busybox has telnetd compiled in the binary. If this does not work, try method 2. Using well-known exploit to start telnetd on your router - works only if Busybox on stock firmware has telnetd included: - Open stock firmware web interface - Navigate to "URL filtering" section by going to "Advanced settings", then "Firewall" and finally "URL filter". - Add an entry ending with "&&telnetd&&", for example "http://hostname/&&telnetd&&". - telnetd will immediately listen on port 4719. - After connecting to telnetd use "admin/admin" as credentials. Method 2: This works if busybox does not have telnetd compiled in. Notably, this is the case in DNA.fi firmware. If this does not work, try method 3. - Set IP of your computer to 192.168.1.22. - Have a TFTP server running at that address - Download MIPS build of busybox including telnetd, for example from: https://busybox.net/downloads/binaries/1.21.1/busybox-mips and put it in it's root directory. Rename it as "telnetd". - As previously, login to router's web UI and navigate to "URL filtering" - Using "Inspect" feature, extend "maxlength" property of the input field named "addURLFilter", so it looks like this: <input type="text" name="addURLFilter" id="addURLFilter" maxlength="332" class="required form-control"> - Stay on the page - do not navigate anywhere - Enter "http://aa&zte_debug.sh 192.168.1.22 telnetd" as a filter. - Save the settings. This will download the telnetd binary over tftp and execute it. You should be able to log in at port 23, using "admin/admin" as credentials. Method 3: If the above doesn't work, use the serial console - it exposes root shell directly without need for login. Some stock firmwares, notably one from finnish DNA operator lack telnetd in their builds. STEP 2: Backing up original software: As the stock firmware may be customized by the carrier and is not officially available in the Internet, IT IS IMPERATIVE to back up the stock firmware, if you ever plan to returning to stock firmware. Method 1: after booting OpenWrt initramfs image via TFTP: PLEASE NOTE: YOU CANNOT DO THIS IF USING INTERMEDIATE FIRMWARE FOR INSTALLATION. - Dump stock firmware located on stock kernel and ubi partitions: ssh root@192.168.1.1: cat /dev/mtd4 > mtd4_kernel.bin ssh root@192.168.1.1: cat /dev/mtd8 > mtd8_ubi.bin And keep them in a safe place, should a restore be needed in future. Method 2: using stock firmware: - Connect an external USB drive formatted with FAT or ext4 to the USB port. - The drive will be auto-mounted to /var/usb_disk - Check the flash layout of the device: cat /proc/mtd It should show the following: mtd0: 00080000 00010000 "uboot" mtd1: 00020000 00010000 "uboot-env" mtd2: 00140000 00020000 "fota-flag" mtd3: 00140000 00020000 "caldata" mtd4: 00140000 00020000 "mac" mtd5: 00600000 00020000 "cfg-param" mtd6: 00140000 00020000 "oops" mtd7: 00800000 00020000 "web" mtd8: 00300000 00020000 "kernel" mtd9: 01f00000 00020000 "rootfs" mtd10: 01900000 00020000 "data" mtd11: 03200000 00020000 "fota" Differences might indicate that this is NOT a vanilla MF286 device but one of its later derivatives. - Copy over all MTD partitions, for example by executing the following: for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11; do cat /dev/mtd$i > \ /var/usb_disk/mtd$i; done - If the count of MTD partitions is different, this might indicate that this is not a standard MF286 device, but one of its later derivatives. - (optionally) rename the files according to MTD partition names from /proc/mtd - Unmount the filesystem: umount /var/usb_disk; sync and then remove the drive. - Store the files in safe place if you ever plan to return to stock firmware. This is especially important, because stock firmware for this device is not available officially, and is usually customized by the mobile providers. STEP 3: Booting initramfs image: Method 1: using serial console (RECOMMENDED): - Have TFTP server running, exposing the OpenWrt initramfs image, and set your computer's IP address as 192.168.1.22. This is the default expected by U-boot. You may wish to change that, and alter later commands accordingly. - Connect the serial console if you haven't done so already, - Interrupt boot sequence by pressing any key in U-boot when prompted - Use the following commands to boot OpenWrt initramfs through TFTP: setenv serverip 192.168.1.22 setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 tftpboot 0x81000000 openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin bootm 0x81000000 (Replace server IP and router IP as needed). There is no emergency TFTP boot sequence triggered by buttons, contrary to MF283+. - When OpenWrt initramfs finishes booting, proceed to actual installation. Method 2: using initramfs image as temporary boot kernel This exploits the fact, that kernel and rootfs MTD devices are consecutive on NAND flash, so from within stock image, an initramfs can be written to this area and booted by U-boot on next reboot, because it uses "nboot" command which isn't limited by kernel partition size. - Download the initramfs-kernel.bin image - Split the image into two parts on 3MB partition size boundary, which is the size of kernel partition. Pad the output of second file to eraseblock size: dd if=openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin \ bs=128k count=24 \ of=openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-kernel.bin dd if=openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin \ bs=128k skip=24 conv=sync \ of=openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-rootfs.bin - Copy over /usr/bin/flash_eraseall and /usr/bin/nandwrite utilities to /tmp. This is CRITICAL for installation, as erasing rootfs will cut you off from those tools on flash! - After backing up the previous MTD contents, write the images to the respective MTD devices: /tmp/flash_eraseall /dev/<kernel-mtd> /tmp/nandwrite /dev/<kernel-mtd> \ /var/usb_disk/openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-kernel.bin /tmp/flash_eraseall /dev/<kernel-mtd> /tmp/nandwrite /dev/<rootfs-mtd> \ /var/usb_disk/openwrt-ath79-zte_mf286-intermediate-rootfs.bin - Ensure that no bad blocks were present on the devices while writing. If they were present, you may need to vary the split between kernel and rootfs parts, so U-boot reads a valid uImage after skipping the bad blocks. If it fails, you will be left with method 3 (below). - If write is OK, reboot the device, it will reboot to OpenWrt initramfs: reboot -f - After rebooting, SSH into the device and use sysupgrade to perform proper installation. Method 3: using built-in TFTP recovery (LAST RESORT): - With that method, ensure you have complete backup of system's NAND flash first. It involves deliberately erasing the kernel. - Download "-initramfs-kernel.bin" image for the device. - Prepare the recovery image by prepending 8MB of zeroes to the image, and name it root_uImage: dd if=/dev/zero of=padding.bin bs=8M count=1 cat padding.bin openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-initramfs-kernel.bin > root_uImage - Set up a TFTP server at 192.0.0.1/8. Router will use random address from that range. - Put the previously generated "root_uImage" into TFTP server root directory. - Deliberately erase "kernel" partition" using stock firmware after taking backup. THIS IS POINT OF NO RETURN. - Restart the device. U-boot will attempt flashing the recovery initramfs image, which will let you perform actual installation using sysupgrade. This might take a considerable time, sometimes the router doesn't establish Ethernet link properly right after booting. Be patient. - After U-boot finishes flashing, the LEDs of switch ports will all light up. At this moment, perform power-on reset, and wait for OpenWrt initramfs to finish booting. Then proceed to actual installation. STEP 4: Actual installation: - scp the sysupgrade image to the device: scp openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin \ root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/ - ssh into the device and execute sysupgrade: sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ath79-nand-zte_mf286-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin - Wait for router to reboot to full OpenWrt. STEP 5: WAN connection establishment Since the router is equipped with LTE modem as its main WAN interface, it might be useful to connect to the Internet right away after installation. To do so, please put the following entries in /etc/config/network, replacing the specific configuration entries with one needed for your ISP: config interface 'wan' option proto 'qmi' option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0' option auth '<auth>' # As required, usually 'none' option pincode '<pin>' # If required by SIM option apn '<apn>' # As required by ISP option pdptype '<pdp>' # Typically 'ipv4', or 'ipv4v6' or 'ipv6' For example, the following works for most polish ISPs config interface 'wan' option proto 'qmi' option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0' option auth 'none' option apn 'internet' option pdptype 'ipv4' If you have build with LuCI, installing luci-proto-qmi helps with this task. Restoring the stock firmware: Preparation: If you took your backup using stock firmware, you will need to reassemble the partitions into images to be restored onto the flash. The layout might differ from ISP to ISP, this example is based on generic stock firmware. The only partitions you really care about are "web", "kernel", and "rootfs". For easy padding and possibly restoring configuration, you can concatenate most of them into images written into "ubi" meta-partition in OpenWrt. To do so, execute something like: cat mtd5_cfg-param.bin mtd6-oops.bin mtd7-web.bin mtd9-rootfs.bin > \ mtd8-ubi_restore.bin You can skip the "fota" partition altogether, it is used only for stock firmware update purposes and can be overwritten safely anyway. The same is true for "data" partition which on my device was found to be unused at all. Restoring mtd5_cfg-param.bin will restore the stock firmware configuration you had before. Method 1: Using initramfs: - Boot to initramfs as in step 3: - Completely detach ubi0 partition using ubidetach /dev/ubi0_0 - Look up the kernel and ubi partitions in /proc/mtd - Copy over the stock kernel image using scp to /tmp - Erase kernel and restore stock kernel: (scp mtd4_kernel.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/) mtd write <kernel_mtd> mtd4_kernel.bin rm mtd4_kernel.bin - Copy over the stock partition backups one-by-one using scp to /tmp, and restore them individually. Otherwise you might run out of space in tmpfs: (scp mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/) mtd write <ubiconcat0_mtd> mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin rm mtd3_ubiconcat0.bin (scp mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/) mtd write <ubiconcat1_mtd> mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin rm mtd5_ubiconcat1.bin - If the write was correct, force a device reboot with reboot -f Method 2: Using live OpenWrt system (NOT RECOMMENDED): - Prepare a USB flash drive contatining MTD backup files - Ensure you have kmod-usb-storage and filesystem driver installed for your drive - Mount your flash drive mkdir /tmp/usb mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/usb - Remount your UBI volume at /overlay to R/O mount -o remount,ro /overlay - Write back the kernel and ubi partitions from USB drive cd /tmp/usb mtd write mtd4_kernel.bin /dev/<kernel_mtd> mtd write mtd8_ubi.bin /dev/<kernel_ubi> - If everything went well, force a device reboot with reboot -f Last image may be truncated a bit due to lack of space in RAM, but this will happen over "fota" MTD partition which may be safely erased after reboot anyway. Method 3: using built-in TFTP recovery (LAST RESORT): - Assemble a recovery rootfs image from backup of stock partitions by concatenating "web", "kernel", "rootfs" images dumped from the device, as "root_uImage" - Use it in place of "root_uImage" recovery initramfs image as in the TFTP pre-installation method. Quirks and known issues - Kernel partition size is increased to 4MB compared to stock 3MB, to accomodate future kernel updates - at this moment OpenWrt 5.10 kernel image is at 2.5MB which is dangerously close to the limit. This has no effect on booting the system - but keep that in mind when reassembling an image to restore stock firmware. - uqmi seems to be unable to change APN manually, so please use the one you used before in stock firmware first. If you need to change it, please use protocok '3g' to establish connection once, or use the following command to change APN (and optionally IP type) manually: echo -ne 'AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","<apn>' > /dev/ttyUSB0 - The only usable LED as a "system LED" is the green debug LED hidden inside the case. All other LEDs are controlled by modem, on which the router part has some influence only on Wi-Fi LED. - Wi-Fi LED currently doesn't work while under OpenWrt, despite having correct GPIO mapping. All other LEDs are controlled by modem, including this one in stock firmware. GPIO19, mapped there only acts as a gate, while the actual signal source seems to be 5GHz Wi-Fi radio, however it seems it is not the LED exposed by ath10k as ath10k-phy0. - GPIO5 used for modem reset is a suicide switch, causing a hardware reset of whole board, not only the modem. It is attached to gpio-restart driver, to restart the modem on reboot as well, to ensure QMI connectivity after reboot, which tends to fail otherwise. - Modem, as in MF283+, exposes root shell over ADB - while not needed for OpenWrt operation at all - have fun lurking around. - MAC address shift for 5GHz Wi-Fi used in stock firmware is 0x320000000000, which is impossible to encode in the device tree, so I took the liberty of using MAC address increment of 1 for it, to ensure different BSSID for both Wi-Fi interfaces.

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

ramips: add support for Linksys EA6350 v4
Specifications: - SoC: MT7621DAT (880MHz, 2 Cores) - RAM: 128 MB - Flash: 128 MB NAND - Ethernet: 5x 1GiE MT7530 - WiFi: MT7603/MT7613 - USB: 1x USB 3.0 This is another MT7621 device, very similar to other Linksys EA7300 series devices. Installation: Upload the generated factory.bin image via the stock web firmware updater. Reverting to factory firmware: Like other EA7300 devices, this device has an A/B router configuration to prevent bricking. Hard-resetting this device three (3) times will put the device in failsafe (default) mode. At this point, flash the OEM image to itself and reboot. This puts the router back into the 'B' image and allows for a firmware upgrade. Troubleshooting: If the firmware will not boot, first restore the factory as described above. This will then allow the factory.bin update to be applied properly. Signed-off-by: Nick McKinney <nick@ndmckinney.net> |

This device is based on NXP's QorIQ T2081QDS board, with a quad-core dual-threaded 1.5 GHz ppc64 CPU and 4GB ECC RAM. The board has 5 ethernet interfaces, of which 3 are connected to the ethernet ports on the front panel. The other 2 are internally connected to a Marvell 88E6171 switch; the other 5 ports of this switch are also connected to the ethernet ports on the front panel. Installation: write the sdcard image to an SD card. Stock U-Boot will not boot, wait for it to fail then run these commands: setenv OpenWrt_fdt image-watchguard-firebox-m300.dtb setenv OpenWrt_kernel watchguard_firebox-m300-kernel.bin setenv wgBootSysA 'setenv bootargs root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootdelay=2 console=$consoledev,$baudrate fsl_dpaa_fman.fsl_fm_max_frm=1530; ext2load mmc 0:1 $fdtaddr $OpenWrt_fdt; ext2load mmc 0:1 $loadaddr $OpenWrt_kernel; bootm $loadaddr - $fdtaddr' saveenv reset The default U-Boot boot entry will now boot OpenWrt from the SD card.

ramips: add support for Xiaomi MiWifi 3C
This commit adds support for Xiaomi MiWiFi 3C device. Xiaomi MiWifi 3C has almost the same system architecture as the Xiaomi Mi WiFi Nano, which is already officially supported by OpenWrt. The differences are: - Numbers of antennas (4 instead of 2). The antenna management is done via the µC. There is no configuration needed in the software code. - LAN port assignments are different. LAN1 and WAN are interchanged. OpenWrt Wiki: https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/mir3c OpenWrt developers forum page: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/support-for-xiaomi-mi-3c Specifications: - CPU: MediaTek MT7628AN (575MHz) - Flash: 16MB - RAM: 64MB DDR2 - 2.4 GHz: IEEE 802.11b/g/n with Integrated LNA and PA - Antennas: 4x external single band antennas - WAN: 1x 10/100M - LAN: 2x 10/100M - LED: 1x amber/blue/red. Programmable - Button: Reset MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware: use address source LAN *:92 factory 0x28 WAN *:92 factory 0x28 2g *:93 factory 0x4 OEM firmware uses VLAN's to create the network interface for WAN and LAN. Bootloader info: The stock bootloader uses a "Dual ROM Partition System". OS1 is a deep copy of OS2. The bootloader start OS2 by default. To force start OS1 it is needed to set "flag_try_sys2_failed=1". How to install: 1- Use OpenWRTInvasion to gain telnet, ssh and ftp access. https://github.com/acecilia/OpenWRTInvasion (IP: 192.168.31.1 - Username: root - Password: root) 2- Connect to router using telnet or ssh. 3- Backup all partitions. Use command "dd if=/dev/mtd0 of=/tmp/mtd0". Copy /tmp/mtd0 to computer using ftp. 4- Copy openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin to /tmp in router using ftp. 5- Enable UART access and change start image for OS1. ``` nvram set uart_en=1 nvram set flag_last_success=1 nvram set boot_wait=on nvram set flag_try_sys2_failed=1 nvram commit ``` 6- Installing Openwrt on OS1 and free OS2. ``` mtd erase OS1 mtd erase OS2 mtd -r write /tmp/openwrt-ramips-mt76x8-xiaomi_miwifi-3c-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin OS1 ``` Limitations: For the first install the image size needs to be less than 7733248 bits.

Installation:
Copy dtb from build_dir to bin/ and run tftpserver there:
$ cp ./build_dir/target-aarch64_cortex-a72_musl/linux-mvebu_cortexa72/image-armada-7040-mochabin.dtb bin/targets/mvebu/cortexa72/
$ in.tftpd -L -s bin/targets/mvebu/cortexa72/
Connect to the device UART via microUSB port and power on the device.
Power on the device and hit any key to stop the autoboot.
Set serverip (host IP) and ipaddr (any free IP address on the same subnet), e.g:
$ setenv serverip 192.168.1.10 # Host
$ setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.15 # Device
Set the ethernet device (Example for the 1G WAN):
$ setenv ethact mvpp2-2
Ping server to confirm network is working:
$ ping $serverip
Using mvpp2-2 device
host 192.168.1.15 is alive
Tftpboot the firmware:
$ tftpboot $kernel_addr_r openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-initramfs-kernel.bin
$ tftpboot $fdt_addr_r image-armada-7040-mochabin.dtb
Boot the image:
$ booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r
Once the initramfs is booted, transfer openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz
to /tmp dir on the device.
Gunzip and dd the image:
$ gunzip /tmp/openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz
$ dd if=/tmp/openwrt-mvebu-cortexa72-globalscale_mochabin-squashfs-sdcard.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 && sync
Reboot the device.
Hit any key to stop the autoboot.
Reset U-boot env and set the bootcmd:
$ env default -a
$ setenv bootcmd 'load mmc 0 ${loadaddr} boot.scr && source ${loadaddr}'
Optionally I would advise to edit the console env variable to remove earlycon as that
causes the kernel to never use the driver for the serial console.
Earlycon should be used only for debugging before the kernel can configure the console
and will otherwise cause various issues with the console.
$ setenv console 'console=ttyS0,115200'
Save and reset
$ saveenv
$ reset
OpenWrt should boot from eMMC now.

+ TX
+ RX
+ VCC
Serial connection parameters for both devices: 115200 8N1.
Installation
------------
OEM upgrade method:
(Possible on master once https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/openwrt/patch/20210624210408.19248-1-bjorn@mork.no/ is merged)
* Log in to OEM management web interface
* Navigate to Maintenance > Firmware > Management
* If "Active Image" has the first option selected, OpenWrt will need to be
flashed to the "Active" partition. If the second option is selected,
OpenWrt will need to be flashed to the "Backup" partition.
* Navigate to Maintenance > Firmware > Upload
* Upload the openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-initramfs-kernel.bin
file by your preferred method to the previously determined partition.
When prompted, select to boot from the newly flashed image, and reboot the switch.
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
> sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
it may be necessary to restart the network (/etc/init.d/network restart) on
the running initramfs image.
U-Boot TFTP method:
* Configure your client with a static 192.168.1.x IP (e.g. 192.168.1.10).
* Set up a TFTP server on your client and make it serve the initramfs image.
* Connect serial, power up the switch, interrupt U-boot by hitting the
space bar, and enable the network:
> rtk network on
* Since the GS1900-24HPv2 is a dual-partition device, you want to keep the OEM
firmware on the backup partition for the time being. OpenWrt can only boot
from the first partition anyway (hardcoded in the DTS). To make sure we are
manipulating the first partition, issue the following commands:
> setsys bootpartition 0
> savesys
* Download the image onto the device and boot from it:
> tftpboot 0x84f00000 192.168.1.10:openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-initramfs-kernel.bin
> bootm
* Once OpenWrt has booted, scp the sysupgrade image to /tmp and flash it:
> sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-realtek-generic-zyxel_gs1900-24hp-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
it may be necessary to restart the network (/etc/init.d/network restart) on
the running initramfs image.

ramips: add support for Sitecom WLR-4100 v1 002
Sitecom WLR-4100 v1 002 (marked as X4 N300) is a wireless router
Specification:
SoC: MT7620A
RAM: 64 MB DDR2
Flash: MX25L6405D SPI NOR 8 MB
WIFI: 2.4 GHz integrated
Ethernet: 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps QCA8337
USB: 1x 2.0
LEDS: 2x GPIO controlled, 5x switch
Buttons: 1x GPIO controlled
UART: row of 4 unpopulated holes near USB port, starting count from
white triangle on PCB:
VCC 3.3V
GND
TX
RX
baud: 115200, parity: none, flow control: none
Installation
Connect to one of LAN (yellow) ethernet ports,
Open router configuration interface,
Go to Toolbox > Firmware,
Browse for OpenWrt factory image with dlf extension and hit Apply,
Wait few minutes, after the Power LED will stop blinking, the router is
ready for configuration.
Known issues
Some USB 2.0 devices work at full speed mode 1.1 only
MAC addresses
factory partition only contains one (binary) MAC address in 0x4.
u-boot-env contains four (ascii) MAC addresses, of which two appear
to be valid.
factory 0x4 **:**:**:**:b9:84 binary
u-boot-env ethaddr **:**:**:**:b9:84 ascii
u-boot-env wanaddr **:**:**:**:b9:85 ascii
u-boot-env wlanaddr 00:AA:BB:CC:DD:12 ascii
u-boot-env iNICaddr 00:AA:BB:CC:DD:22 ascii
The factory firmware only assigns ethaddr. Thus, we take the
binary value which we can use directly in DTS.
Additional information
OEM firmware shell password is: SitecomSenao
useful for creating backup of original firmware.
There is also another revision of this device (v1 001), based on RT3352 SoC

ramips: add support for Linksys EA8100 v2
Specifications: - SoC: MT7621AT - RAM: 256MB - Flash: 128MB NAND - Ethernet: 5 Gigabit ports - WiFi: 2.4G/5G MT7615N - USB: 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0 This device is very similar to the EA7300 v1/v2, EA7500 v2, and EA8100 v1. Installation: Upload the generated factory image through the factory web interface. (following part taken from EA7300 v2 commit message:) 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. With thanks to Tom Wizetek (@wizetek) for testing.

ipq806x: add support for Askey RT4230W REV6
This adds support for the Askey RT4230W REV6
(Branded by Spectrum/Charter as RAC2V1K)
At this time, there's no way to reinstall the stock firmware so don't install
this on a router that's being rented.
Specifications:
Qualcomm IPQ8065
1 GB of RAM (DDR3)
512 MB Flash (NAND)
2x Wave 2 WiFi cards (QCA9984)
5x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet (Switch: QCA8337)
1x LED (Controlled by a microcontroller that switches it between red and
blue with different patterns)
1x USB 3.0 Type-A
12V DC Power Input
UART header on PCB - pinout from top to bottom is RX, TX, GND, 5V
Port settings are 115200n8
More information: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/askey-rac2v1k-support/15830
https://deviwiki.com/wiki/Askey_RAC2V1K
To check what revision your router is, restore one of these config backups
through the stock firmware to get ssh access then run
"cat /proc/device-tree/model".
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/askey-rac2v1k-support/15830/17
The revision number on the board doesn't seem to be very consistent so that's
why this is needed. You can also run printenv in the uboot console and if
machid is set to 177d, that means your router is rev6.
Note: Don't install this if the router is being rented from an ISP. The defined
partition layout is different from the OEM one and even if you changed the
layout to match, backing up and restoring the OEM firmware breaks /overlay so
nothing will save and the router will likely enter a bootloop.
How to install:
Method 1: Install without opening the case using SSH and tftp
You'll need:
RAC2V1K-SSH.zip:
https://github.com/lmore377/openwrt-rt4230w/blob/master/RAC2V1K-SSH.zip
initramfs and sysupgrade images
Connect to one of the router's LAN ports
Download the RAC2V1K-SSH.zip file and restore the config file that
corresponds to your router's firmware (If you're firmware is newer than what's
in the zip file, just restore the 1.1.16 file)
After a reboot, you should be able to ssh into the router with username:
"4230w" and password: "linuxbox" or "admin". Run the following commannds
fw_setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 #IP of router, can be anything as long as
it's in the same subnet as the server
fw_setenv serverip 10.42.0.1# #IP of tftp server that's set up in next
steps
fw_setenv bootdelay 8
fw_setenv bootcmd "tftpboot initramfs.bin; bootm; bootipq"
Don't reboot the router yet.
Install and set up a tftp server on your computer
Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer (use this for
serverip in the above commands)
Rename the initramfs image to initramfs.bin, and host it with the tftp
server
Reboot the router. If you set up everything right, the router led should
switch over to a slow blue glow which means openwrt is booted. If for some
reason the file doesn't get loaded into ram properly, it should still boot to
the OEM firmware.
After openwrt boots, ssh into it and run these commands:
fw_setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 && setenv mtdparts
mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware && ubi

After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.
Method 2: Install with serial access (Do this if something fails and you can't
boot after using method 1)
You'll need:
initramfs and sysupgrade images
Serial access:
https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/askey/askey_rt4230w_rev6#opening_the_case
Install and set up a tftp server
Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer
Download the initramfs image, rename it to initramfs.bin, and host it with
the tftp server
Connect the wan port of the router to your computer
Interrupt U-Boot and run these commands:
setenv serverip 10.42.0.1 (You can use whatever ip you set for the computer)
setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 (Can be any ip as long as it's in the same subnet)
setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 &&
set mtdparts mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware
&& ubi read 0x44000000 kernel 0x6e0000 && bootm"
saveenv
tftpboot initramfs.bin
bootm
After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.

ramips: add support for Linksys EA8100 v1
Specifications: - SoC: MT7621AT - RAM: 256MB - Flash: 128MB NAND - Ethernet: 5 Gigabit ports - WiFi: 2.4G/5G MT7615N - USB: 1 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0 This device is very similar to the EA7300 v1/v2 and EA7500 v2. Installation: Upload the generated factory image through the factory web interface. (following part taken from EA7300 v2 commit message:) 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. With thanks to Leon Poon (@LeonPoon) for the initial bringup.

ramips: add support for Amped Wireless ALLY router and extender
Amped Wireless ALLY is a whole-home WiFi kit, with a router (model ALLY-R1900K) and an Extender (model ALLY-00X19K). Both are devices are 11ac and based on MediaTek MT7621AT and MT7615N chips. The units are nearly identical, except the Extender lacks a USB port and has a single Ethernet port. Specification: - SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT (2C/4T) @ 880MHz - RAM: 128MB DDR3 (Nanya NT5CC64M16GP-DI) - FLASH: 128MB NAND (Winbond W29N01GVSIAA) - WiFi: 2.4/5 GHz 4T4R - 2.4GHz MediaTek MT7615N bgn - 5GHz MediaTek MT7615N nac - Switch: SoC integrated Gigabit Switch - USB: 1x USB3 (Router only) - BTN: Reset, WPS - LED: single RGB - UART: through-hole on PCB. J1: pin1 (square pad, towards rear)=3.3V, pin2=RX, pin3=GND, pin4=TX. Settings: 57600/8N1. Note regarding dual system partitions ------------------------------------- The vendor firmware and boot loader use a dual partition scheme. The boot partition is decided by the bootImage U-boot environment variable: 0 for the 1st partition, 1 for the 2nd. OpenWrt does not support this scheme and will always use the first OS partition. It will set bootImage to 0 during installation, making sure the first partition is selected by the boot loader. Also, because we can't be sure which partition is active to begin with, a 2-step flash process is used. We first flash an initramfs image, then follow with a regular sysupgrade. Installation: Router (ALLY-R1900K) 1) Install the flashable initramfs image via the OEM web-interface. (Alternatively, you can use the TFTP recovery method below.) You can use WiFi or Ethernet. The direct URL is: http://192.168.3.1/07_06_00_firmware.html a. No login is needed, and you'll be in their setup wizard. b. You might get a warning about not being connected to the Internet. c. Towards the bottom of the page will be a section entitled "Or Manually Upgrade Firmware from a File:" where you can manually choose and upload a firmware file. d: Click "Choose File", select the OpenWRT "initramfs" image and click "Upload." 2) The Router will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot. After booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1. 3) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password. 4) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before continuing; see process below. 5) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image. Note: you may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if you prefer. a. Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. b. Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image" c. Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file. d. Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file. e. Important: uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current configuration" for this initial installation. f. Click "Continue" to flash the firmware. g. The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed. Extender (ALLY-00X19K) 1) This device requires a TFTP recovery procedure to do an initial load of OpenWRT. Start by configuring a computer as a TFTP client: a. Install a TFTP client (server not necessary) b. Configure an Ethernet interface to 192.168.1.x/24; don't use .1 or .6 c. Connect the Ethernet to the sole Ethernet port on the X19K. 2) Put the ALLY Extender in TFTP recovery mode. a. Do this by pressing and holding the reset button on the bottom while connecting the power. b. As soon as the LED lights up green (roughly 2-3 seconds), release the button. 3) Start the TFTP transfer of the Initramfs image from your setup machine. For example, from Linux: tftp -v -m binary 192.168.1.6 69 -c put initramfs.bin 4) The Extender will flash the OpenWrt initramfs image and reboot. After booting, LuCI will be available on 192.168.1.1. 5) Log into LuCI as root; there is no password. 6) Optional (but recommended) is to backup the OEM firmware before continuing; see process below. 7) Complete the Installation by flashing a full OpenWRT image. Note: you may use the sysupgrade command line tool in lieu of the UI if you prefer. a. Choose System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. b. Click "Flash Image..." under "Flash new firmware image" c. Click "Browse..." and then select the sysupgrade file. d. Click Upload to upload the sysupgrade file. e. Important: uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current configuration" for this initial installation. f. Click "Continue" to flash the firmware. g. The device will reboot and OpenWRT is installed. Backup the OEM Firmware: ----------------------- There isn't any downloadable firmware for the ALLY devices on the Amped Wireless web site. Reverting back to the OEM firmware is not possible unless we have a backup of the original OEM firmware. The OEM firmware may be stored on either /dev/mtd3 ("firmware") or /dev/mtd6 ("oem"). We can't be sure which was overwritten with the initramfs image, so backup both partitions to be safe. 1) Once logged into LuCI, navigate to System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. 2) Under "Save mtdblock contents," first select "firmware" and click "Save mtdblock" to download the image. 3) Repeat the process, but select "oem" from the pull-down menu. Revert to the OEM Firmware: -------------------------- * U-boot TFTP: Follow the TFTP recovery steps for the Extender, and use the backup image. * OpenWrt "Flash Firmware" interface: Upload the backup image and select "Force update" before continuing.

ipq40xx: add netgear wac510 support
This adds support for the Netgear WAC510 Insight Managed Smart Cloud Wireless Access Point, an indoor dual-band, dual-radio 802.11ac business-class wireless AP with integrated omnidirectional antennae and two 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports. For more information see: <https://www.netgear.com/business/wifi/access-points/wac510> Specifications: SoC: Qualcomm IPQ4018 (DAKOTA) ARM Quad-Core RAM: 256 MiB Flash1: 2 MiB Winbond W25Q16JV SPI-NOR Flash2: 128 MiB Winbond W25N01GVZEIG SPI-NAND Ethernet: Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC, QCA8072 PHY), 2x 1000/100/10 port, WAN port active IEEE 802.3af/at PoE in Wireless1: Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC) 802.11b/g/n 2x2:2, 3 dBi antennae Wireless2: Built-in IPQ4018 (SoC) 802.11a/n/ac 2x2:2, 4 dBi antennae Input: (Optional) Barrel 12 V 2.5 A Power, Reset button SW1 LEDs: Power, Insight, WAN PoE, LAN, 2.4G WLAN, 5G WLAN Serial: Header J2 1 - 3.3 Volt (Do NOT connect!) 2 - TX 3 - RX 4 - Ground WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 3.3 volt level converter! The Serial settings are 115200-8-N-1. Installation via Stock Web Interface: BTW: The default factory console/web interface login user/password are admin/password. In the web interface navigating to Management - Maintenance - Upgrade - 'Firmware Upgrade' will show you what is currently installed e.g.: Manage Firmware Current Firmware Version: V5.0.10.2 Backup Firmware Version: V1.2.5.11 Under 'Upgrade Options' choose Local (alternatively SFTP would be available) then click/select 'Browse File' on the right side, choose openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-squashfs-nand-factory.tar and hit the Upgrade button below. After a minute or two your browser should indicate completion printing 'Firmware update complete.' and 'Rebooting AP...'. Note that OpenWrt will use the WAN PoE port as actual WAN port defaulting to DHCP client but NOT allowing LuCI access, use LAN port defaulting to 192.168.1.1/24 to access LuCI. Installation via TFTP Requiring Serial U-Boot Access: Connect to the device's serial port and hit any key to stop autoboot. Upload and boot the initramfs based OpenWrt image as follows: (IPQ40xx) # setenv serverip 192.168.1.1 (IPQ40xx) # setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.2 (IPQ40xx) # tftpboot openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb (IPQ40xx) # bootm Note: This only runs OpenWrt from RAM and has not installed anything to flash as of yet. One may permanently install OpenWrt as follows: Check the MTD device number of the active partition: root@OpenWrt:/# dmesg | grep 'set to be root filesystem' [ 1.010084] mtd: device 9 (rootfs) set to be root filesystem Upload the factory image ending with .ubi to /tmp (e.g. using scp or tftp). Then flash the image as follows (substituting the 9 in mtd9 below with whatever number reported above): root@OpenWrt:/# ubiformat /dev/mtd9 -f /tmp/openwrt-ipq40xx-generic-netgear_wac510-squashfs-nand-factory.ubi And reboot. Dual Image Configuration: The default U-Boot boot command bootipq uses the U-Boot environment variables primary/secondary to decide which image to boot. E.g. primary=0, secondary=3800000 uses rootfs while primary=3800000, secondary=0 uses rootfs_1. Switching their values changes the active partition. E.g. from within U-Boot: (IPQ40xx) # setenv primary 0 (IPQ40xx) # setenv secondary 3800000 (IPQ40xx) # saveenv Or from a OpenWrt userspace serial/SSH console: fw_setenv primary 0 fw_setenv secondary 3800000 Note that if you install two copies of OpenWrt then each will have its independent configuration not like when switching partitions on the stock firmware. BTW: The kernel log shows which boot partition is active: [ 2.439050] ubi0: attached mtd9 (name "rootfs", size 56 MiB) vs. [ 2.978785] ubi0: attached mtd10 (name "rootfs_1", size 56 MiB) Note: After 3 failed boot attempts it automatically switches partition.

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

The ZyXEL NR7101 is an 802.3at PoE powered 5G outdoor (IP68) CPE with integrated directional 5G/LTE antennas. Specifications: - SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT - RAM: 256 MB - Flash: 128 MB MB NAND (MX30LF1G18AC) - WiFi: MediaTek MT7603E - Switch: 1 LAN port (Gigabiti) - 5G/LTE: Quectel RG502Q-EA connected by USB3 to SoC - SIM: 2 micro-SIM slots under transparent cover - Buttons: Reset, WLAN under same cover - LEDs: Multicolour green/red/yellow under same cover (visible) - Power: 802.3at PoE via LAN port The device is built as an outdoor ethernet to 5G/LTE bridge or router. The Wifi interface is intended for installation and/or temporary management purposes only. UART Serial: 57600N1 Located on populated 5 pin header J5: [o] GND [ ] key - no pin [o] RX [o] TX [o] 3.3V Vcc Remove the SIM/button/LED cover, the WLAN button and 12 screws holding the back plate and antenna cover together. The GPS antenna is fixed to the cover, so be careful with the cable. Remove 4 screws fixing the antenna board to the main board, again being careful with the cables. A bluetooth TTL adapter is recommended for permanent console access, to keep the router water and dustproof. The 3.3V pin is able to power such an adapter. MAC addresses: OpenWrt OEM Address Found as lan eth2 08:26:97:*:*:BC Factory 0xe000 (hex), label wlan0 ra0 08:26:97:*:*:BD Factory 0x4 (hex) wwan0 usb0 random WARNING!! ISP managed firmware might at any time update itself to a version where all known workarounds have been disabled. Never boot an ISP managed firmware with a SIM in any of the slots if you intend to use the router with OpenWrt. The bootloader lock can only be disabled with root access to running firmware. The flash chip is physically inaccessible without soldering. Installation from OEM web GUI: - Log in as "supervisor" on https://172.17.1.1/ - Upload OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image on the Maintenance -> Firmware page - Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1 - (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below - Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot Installation from OEM ssh: - Log in as "root" on 172.17.1.1 port 22022 - scp OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image to 172.17.1.1:/tmp - Prepare bootloader config by running: nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1 nvram setro uboot CheckBypass 0 nvram commit - Run "mtd_write -w write initramfs-recovery.bin Kernel" and reboot - Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1 - (optional) Copy OpenWrt to the recovery partition. See below - Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image and reboot Copying OpenWrt to the recovery partition: - Verify that you are running a working OpenWrt recovery image from flash - ssh to root@192.168.1.1 and run: fw_setenv CheckBypass 0 mtd -r erase Kernel2 - Wait while the bootloader mirrors Image1 to Image2 NOTE: This should only be done after successfully booting the OpenWrt recovery image from the primary partition during installation. Do not do this after having sysupgraded OpenWrt! Reinstalling the recovery image on normal upgrades is not required or recommended. Installation from Z-Loader: - Halt boot by pressing Escape on console - Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image at 10.10.10.3 - Type "ATNR 1,initramfs-recovery.bin" at the "ZLB>" prompt - Wait for OpenWrt to boot and ssh to root@192.168.1.1 - Sysupgrade to the OpenWrt sysupgrade image NOTE: ATNR will write the recovery image to both primary and recovery partitions in one go. Booting from RAM: - Halt boot by pressing Escape on console - Type "ATGU" at the "ZLB>" prompt to enter the U-Boot menu - Press "4" to select "4: Entr boot command line interface." - Set up a tftp server to serve the OpenWrt initramfs-recovery.bin image at 10.10.10.3 - Load it using "tftpboot 0x88000000 initramfs-recovery.bin" - Boot with "bootm 0x8800017C" to skip the 380 (0x17C) bytes ZyXEL header This method can also be used to RAM boot OEM firmware. The warning regarding OEM applies! Never boot an unknown OEM firmware, or any OEM firmware with a SIM in any slot. NOTE: U-Boot configuration is incomplete (on some devices?). You may have to configure a working mac address before running tftp using "setenv eth0addr <mac>" Unlocking the bootloader: If you are unebale to halt boot, then the bootloader is locked. The OEM firmware locks the bootloader on every boot by setting DebugFlag to 0. Setting it to 1 is therefore only temporary when OEM firmware is installed. - Run "nvram setro uboot DebugFlag 0x1; nvram commit" in OEM firmware - Run "fw_setenv DebugFlag 0x1" in OpenWrt NOTE: OpenWrt does this automatically on first boot if necessary NOTE2: Setting the flag to 0x1 avoids the reset to 0 in known OEM versions, but this might change. WARNING: Writing anything to flash while the bootloader is locked is considered extremely risky. Errors might cause a permanent brick! Enabling management access from LAN: Temporary workaround to allow installing OpenWrt if OEM firmware has disabled LAN management: - Connect to console - Log in as "root" - Run "iptables -I INPUT -i br0 -j ACCEPT" Notes on the OEM/bootloader dual partition scheme The dual partition scheme on this device uses Image2 as a recovery image only. The device will always boot from Image1, but the bootloader might copy Image2 to Image1 under specific conditions. This scheme prevents repurposing of the space occupied by Image2 in any useful way. Validation of primary and recovery images is controlled by the variables CheckBypass, Image1Stable, and Image1Try. The bootloader sets CheckBypass to 0 and reboots if Image1 fails validation. If CheckBypass is 0 and Image1 is invalid then Image2 is copied to Image1. If CheckBypass is 0 and Image2 is invalid, then Image1 is copied to Image2. If CheckBypass is 1 then all tests are skipped and Image1 is booted unconditionally. CheckBypass is set to 1 after each successful validation of Image1. Image1Try is incremented if Image1Stable is 0, and Image2 is copied to Image1 if Image1Try is 3 or larger. But the bootloader only tests Image1Try if CheckBypass is 0, which is impossible unless the booted image sets it to 0 before failing. The system is therefore not resilient against runtime errors like failure to mount the rootfs, unless the kernel image sets CheckBypass to 0 before failing. This is not yet implemented in OpenWrt. Setting Image1Stable to 1 prevents the bootloader from updating Image1Try on every boot, saving unnecessary writes to the environment partition. Keeping an OpenWrt initramfs recovery as Image2 is recommended primarily to avoid unwanted OEM firmware boots on failure. Ref the warning above. It enables console-less recovery in case of some failures to boot from Image1. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> |
