(Available on the Mofi website.) Previous versions are untested in the upgrade process. Log into the LuCI web interface, usually at 192.168.10.1 and visit the 'System->Backup/Flash Firmware' page. Upload and flash the firmware as usual. Note to Maintainers: Do not remove SUPPORTED_DEVICES from the Makefile! The customized Mofi version of OpenWRT (stock firmware) expects to see mofi5500 as the device name. The stock firmware does not allow for forcing an installation. Without this line, users cannot upload the new firmware through the stock Mofi firmware. This device uses cell modems that could use QMI or MBIM. Add LuCI Modem Manager to allow people to use these. Also, if they have two cell network cards, ethernet, USB, or other kinds of networks, they may wish to use MWAN3 to allow failover amongst their networks. Please compile it with mwan3 for multiple WAN connections. Co-authored-by: Mieczyslaw Nalewaj <namiltd@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: Rick Mac Gillis <noreply@rickmacgillis.com>
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 macOS 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.
