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.

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.
Related Repositories
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.
