Dual-Q H721 is a router platform board, it is the smaller model of the U7621-06. The device has the following specifications: MT7621AT (880 MHz) 256 of RAM (DDR3) 16 MB of FLASH (MX25l12805d SPI) 5x 1 Gbps Ethernet (MT7621 built-in switch) 1x M.2 (NGFF) 3.7V 3A max for 5G M.2 Modem work at USB3.0 mode 1x Minipcie 3.7V 3A max for LTE Modem work at USB2.0 Mode 2x Minipcie for WIFI card 4x Lan+1x Wan 10/100M/1000M RJ45 port 14x LEDs (1x GPIO-controlled) 1x reset button 1x UART header (4-pins) 1x mico SD-card reader 1x DC jack for main power (5~27 V) The following has been tested and is working: Ethernet switch miniPCIe slots (tested with Wi-Fi cards and LTE modem cards) miniSIM slot (works with normal size simcard) sysupgrade reset button micro SD-card reader Installation: This board has no locked down bootloader. The seller can be asked to install openwrt, so upgrades are standard sysupgrade method. Recovery: This board contains a Chinese, closed-source bootloader called Breed (Boot and Recovery Environment for Embedded Devices). Breed supports web recovery and to enter it, you keep the reset button pressed for around 5 seconds during boot. Your machine will be assigned an IP through DHCP and the router will use IP address 192.168.1.1. The recovery website is in Chinese, but is easy to use. Click on the second item in the list to access the recovery page, then the second item on the next page is where you select the firmware. In order to start the recovery, you click the button at the bottom.

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.

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.
