Asus RT-AC1200 is a 2.4/5GHz dual band AC router, based on MediaTek MT7628AN. Specification: * SoC: MT7628AN * RAM: DDR2 64 MiB * Flash: 16 MiB NOR (W25Q128BV) * Wi-Fi: * 2.4GHz: SoC Built-in * 5GHz: MT7612EN * Ethernet: 5x 100Mbps * Switch: SoC built-in * USB: 1x 2.0 Flash Layout: 0x0000000-0x0030000 : "bootloader" 0x0030000-0x0040000 : "nvram" 0x0040000-0x0050000 : "factory" 0x0050000-0x1000000 : "firmware" MAC address: LAN: factory 0x28 WAN: factory 0x22 2.4G: factory 0x4 5G: factory 0x8004 Installation via **recovery** mode: 1. Download the Asus recovery firmware (windows) tool from http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/LiveUpdate/Release/Wireless/Rescue.zip 2. Set your ethernet IP manually 192.168.1.5 / 255.255.255.0 with NO gateway. 3. Plug in your ethernet to LAN port 1 on the router. 4. Load up the recovery software with the firmware file, but don't press "Upload" yet. 5. Plug in the router to power WHILE HOLDING the reset button in. While CONTINUING to hold the button, select "Upload" Continue to hold the reset button in until it finishes and verifies! 6. If that doesn't work try pressing "Upload" first just before you do step 5. At some point while holding reset the rescue tool will finally detect and upload the firmware. That's when you can let go of the reset button. 7. The router will reboot and not much will happen. Wait a minute or 2. 8. Power off and on the router again. Voila. Set everything your Ethernet IP back to DHCP (automatically) and you're good to go. Revert to stock firmware: 1. Install stock image via recovery mode.

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!
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 python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -a
to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -a
to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfig
to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
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.
