Michael Pratt 4ef86c620f ramips: add support for Senao Engenius EPG600
FCC ID: A8J-EPG600

Engenius EPG600 is an indoor wireless router with
1 Gb ethernet switch, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, USB, and phone lines (not supported)

this board is a Senao device:
the hardware is equivalent to EnGenius ESR600 (except for phone lines)
the software is Senao SDK which is based on openwrt and uboot
which uses the legacy Senao header with Vendor / Product IDs
to verify the firmware upgrade image.

**Specification:**

  - MT7620 SOC		MIPS 24kec, 2.4 GHz WMAC, 2x2
  - RT5592N WLAN	PCI chip, 5 GHz, 2x2
  - QCA8337N Gb SW	RGMII GbE, SW P0 -- SOC P5, 5 LEDs
  - 40 MHz clock
  - 16 MB FLASH		MX25L12845EMI-10G
  - 64 MB RAM		NT5TU32M16
  - UART console	J2, populated
  - USB 2.0 port	direct to SOC
  - 6 GPIO LEDs		power, 2G, 5G, wps2g, wps5g, line
  - 3 buttons		reset, wps, "reg" (registeration)
  - 4 antennas		internal omni-directional plates

NOT YET SUPPORTED: VoIP

  - Si3050-FT + Si3019-FT	Voice DAA, SPI control, PCM data
  - Phone Ports "TEL", "LINE"	RJ11, 4P2C (2 pins)

**MAC addresses:**

  MAC address labeled as MAC ADDRESS
  MACs present in both wifi cal data and uboot environment

  eth0.1/phy1	----	*:82	rf 0x4
  phy0		----	*:83	factory 0x4
  eth0.2	MAC	*:b8	"wanaddr"

**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 192.168.0.1
    username and password 'admin'

    Navigate to gear icon, "Device Management", "Tools"
    select the factory.dlf image
    Upload and verify checksum

  Method 2: Serial to upload initramfs:

    Follow directions for TFTP recovery
    upload and boot initramfs and do a sysupgrade

**TFTP recovery:**

  Requires UART serial console, reset button does nothing

  rename initramfs-kernel.bin to 'uImageEPG600'
  make available on TFTP server at 192.168.99.8
  power board, interrupt boot with "4"
  execute `tftpboot` and `bootm` (with the load address)

**Return to OEM:**

  Images from OEM are provided, but not compatible
  with openwrt sysupgrade. So it must be modified.

  Alternatively, back up all mtd partitions before flashing

**Note on switch registers:**

  The necessary registers needed for the QCA8337 switch
  can be read from interrupted boot (tftpboot, bootm)
  by using the following lines in the switch driver ar8327.c
  in the function 'ar8327_hw_config_of'
  where 'qca,ar8327-initvals' is parsed from DTS
  before the new register values are written:

    pr_info("0x04 %08x\n", ar8xxx_read(priv, AR8327_REG_PAD0_MODE));
    pr_info("0x08 %08x\n", ar8xxx_read(priv, AR8327_REG_PAD5_MODE));
    pr_info("0x0c %08x\n", ar8xxx_read(priv, AR8327_REG_PAD6_MODE));
    pr_info("0x10 %08x\n", ar8xxx_read(priv, AR8327_REG_POWER_ON_STRAP));

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 python3.6+ 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).
