Roland Reinl 0a18259e4a ramips: add support for D-Link COVR-X1860 A1
The COVR-X1860 are MT7621-based AX1800 devices (similar to DAP-X1860, but
with two Ethernet ports and external power supply) that are sold in sets
of two (COVR-X1862) and three (COVR-X1863).

Specification:
 - MT7621
 - MT7915 + MT7975 2x2 802.11ax (DBDC)
 - 256MB RAM
 - 128 MB flash
 - 3 LEDs (red, orange, white), routed to one indicator in the top of the device
 - 2 buttons (WPS in the back and Reset at the bottom of the device)

MAC addresses:
 - LAN MAC (printed on the device) is stored in config2 partition as ASCII (entry factory_mac=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx)
 - WAN MAC: LAN MAC + 3
 - 2.4G MAC: LAN MAC + 1
 - 5G MAC: LAN MAC + 2

The pins for the serial console are already labeled on the board (VCC, TX, RX, GND). Serial settings: 3.3V, 115200,8n1

Flashing via OEM Web Interface:
 - Download openwrt-ramips-mt7621-dlink_covr-x1860-a1-squashfs-factory.bin via the OEM web interface firmware update
 - The configuration wizard can be skipped by directly going to http://192.168.0.1/UpdateFirmware_Simple.html

Flashing via Recovery Web Interface:
 - Set your IP address to 192.168.0.10, subnetmask 255.255.255.0
 - Press the reset button while powering on the deivce
 - Keep the reset button pressed until the status LED blinks red
 - Open a Chromium based browser and goto http://192.168.0.1
 - Download openwrt-ramips-mt7621-dlink_covr-x1860-a1-squashfs-recovery.bin

Revert back to stock using the Recovery Web Interface:
 - Set your IP address to 192.168.0.10, subnetmask 255.255.255.25
 - Press the reset button while powering on the deivce
 - Keep the reset button pressed until the status LED blinks red
 - Open a Chromium based browser and goto http://192.168.0.1
 - Flash a decrypted firmware image from D-Link. Decrypting an firmware image is described below.

Decrypting a D-Link firmware image:
 - Download https://github.com/openwrt/firmware-utils/blob/master/src/dlink-sge-image.c and https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openwrt/firmware-utils/master/src/dlink-sge-image.h
 - Compile a binary from the downloaded file, e.g. gcc dlink-sge-image.c -lcrypto -o dlink-sge-image
 - Run ./dlink-sge-image COVR-X1860 <OriginalFirmware> <OutputFile> -d
 - Example for firmware 102b01: ./dlink-sge-image COVR-X1860 COVR-X1860_RevA_Firmware_102b01.bin COVR-X1860_RevA_Firmware_102b01_Decrypted.bin -d

The pull request is based on the discussion in https://forum.openwrt.org/t/add-support-for-d-link-covr-x1860

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Download

Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.

If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.

An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.7+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
