SoC: Atheros AR7161 RAM: DDR 128 MiB (hynix h5dU5162ETR-E3C) Flash: SPI-NOR 8 MiB (mx25l6406em2i-12g) WLAN: 2.4/5 GHz 2.4 GHz: Atheros AR9220 5 GHz: Atheros AR9223 Ethernet: 4x 10/100/1000 Mbps (Atheros AR8021) LEDs/Keys: 2/2 (Internet + System LED, Mesh button + Reset pin) UART: RJ45 9600,8N1 Power: 12 VDC, 1.0 A Installation instruction: 0. Make sure you have latest original firmware (3.7.11.4) 1. Connect to the Serial Port with a Serial Cable RJ45 to DB9/RS232 (9600,8N1) screen /dev/ttyUSB0 9600,cs8,-parenb,-cstopb,-hupcl,-crtscts,clocal 2. Configure your IP-Address to 192.168.1.42 3. When device boots hit spacebar 3. Configure the device for tftpboot setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 setenv serverip 192.168.1.42 saveenv 4. Reset the device reset 5. Hit again the spacebar 6. Now load the image via tftp: tftpboot 0x81000000 INITRAMFS.bin 7. Boot the image: bootm 0x81000000 8. Copy the squashfs-image to the device. 9. Do a sysupgrade. https://openwrt.org/toh/netgear/wndap360 The device should be converted from kmod-owl-loader to nvmem-cells in the future. Nvmem cells were not working. Maybe ATH9K_PCI_NO_EEPROM is missing. That is why this commit is still using kmod-owl-loader. In the future the device tree may look like this: &ath9k0 { nvmem-cells = <&macaddr_art_120c>, <&cal_art_1000>; nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address", "calibration"; }; &ath9k1 { nvmem-cells = <&macaddr_art_520c>, <&cal_art_5000>; nvmem-cell-names = "mac-address", "calibration"; }; &art { ... cal_art_1000: cal@1000 { reg = <0x1000 0xeb8>; }; cal_art_5000: cal@5000 { reg = <0x5000 0xeb8>; }; }; Signed-off-by: Nick Hainke <vincent@systemli.org> (cherry picked from commit 88527294cda0a46d927b3bca6dbaab507fa1cb96)
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 -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.
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.
