This patch is based on #1689 and adds support for TP-Link Archer C6 v2 (US) and A6 (US/TW). The hardware is the same as EU and RU variant, except for GPIOs (LEDS/Buttons), flash(chip/partitions) and UART being available on the board. - SOC: Qualcomm QCA9563 @ 775MHz - Flash: GigaDevice GD25Q127CS1G (16MiB) - RAM: Zentel A3R1GE40JBF (128 MiB DDR2) - Ethernet: Qualcomm QCA8337N: 4x 1Gbps LAN + 1x 1Gbps WAN - Wireless: - 2.4GHz (bgn) QCA9563 integrated (3x3) - 5GHz (ac) Qualcomm QCA9886 (2x2) - Button: 1x power, 1x reset, 1x wps - LED: 6x LEDs: power, wlan2g, wlan5g, lan, wan, wps - UART: 115200, 8n1 (header available on board) Known issues: - Wireless: 5GHz is known to have lower RSSI signal, it affects speed and range. Flash instructions: Upload openwrt-ath79-generic-tplink_archer-c6-v2-us-squashfs-factory.bin via the router Web interface. Flash instruction using tftp recovery: 1. Connect the computer to one of the LAN ports of the router 2. Set the computer IP to 192.168.0.66 3. Start a tftp server with the OpenWrt factory image in the tftp root directory renamed to ArcherA6v2_tp_recovery.bin. 4. Connect power cable to router, press and hold the reset button and turn the router on 5. Keep the reset button pressed until the WPS LED lights up 6. Wait ~150 seconds to complete flashing Flash partitioning: I've followed #1689 for defining the partition layout for this patch. The partition named as "tplink" @ 0xfd0000 is marked as read only as it is where some config for stock firmware are stored. On stock firmware those stock partitions starts at 0xfd9400 however I had not been able to make it functional starting on the same address as on stock fw, so it has been partitioned following #1689 and not the stock partition layout for this specific partition. Due to that firmware/rootfs partition lenght is 0xf80000 and not 0xf89400 as stock. According to the GPL code, the EU/RU/JP variant does have different GPIO pins assignment to LEDs and buttons, also the flash memory layout is different.

To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system. You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python3.5+, perl, make, find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed. 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 Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system. Sunshine!
