The Bonanza Peak series are a couple of MT7986-powered 2.5 GBit/s Wi-Fi 6 residential gateway, access point and mesh router products. All of them come with an eMMC to boot from, are powered via USB-C and got a USB 3.0 type-A port. All of them got a Dialog (Renesas) DA14531 Bluetooth module connected via UART. If the device was previously running stock firmware, the BT chip's internal flash has been loaded with firmware and it can be attached using hciattach when using OpenWrt. SOC: MediaTek MT7986A RAM: 2 GiB DDR4 eMMC: 8 GiB Bluetooth: BLE5 (DA14531) Serial: 3.3V level, 115200 8n1 on 4-pin connector * SDG-8612 - Dual-band RJ-45 gateway 2x 2.5G MaxLinear PHY for WAN port 3x 1GE LAN ports via MT7531 switch * SDG-8614 - Dual-band SFP gateway 1x SFP cage with up to 2.5G speed 1x 2.5G MaxLinear PHY for LAN port 3x 1GE LAN ports via MT7531 switch * SDG-8622 - Tri-band mesh router 2x 2.5G MaxLinear PHY The MT7986 2G and 5G are used as 2G and 5G high band. There’s a MT7915 PCIe card for 5G low band. * SDG-8632 - Tri-band mesh router with 6 GHz 2x 2.5G MaxLinear PHY The MT7986 serves the 2G and 6G bands. There’s a MT7915 PCIe card for 5G. Installation via U-Boot serial console: 0. setup TFTP server with IP 192.168.1.10/24, place initramfs image renamed to openwrt.XXX where XXX is the internal product number: SDG-8612: XXX = 412 SDG-8614: XXX = 414 SDG-8622: XXX = 422 SDG-8632: XXX = 432 1. connect to the serial console and power on the device. Interrupt the bootloader by pressing 'st' 2. setenv boot_mode openwrt ; saveenv 3. run boot1 Load firmware via TFTP and write to flash 4. run boot2 Now OpenWrt initramfs should boot 5. upload sysupgrade.bin via scp to /tmp 6. sysupgrade Signed-off-by: Daniel Golle <daniel@makrotopia.org>
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.

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
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -ato obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -ato install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfigto select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
maketo 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.
