The Mikrotik R11e-LTE6 modem is similar to ZTE MF286R modem, added
earlier: it has a Marvel chip, able to work in ACM+RNDIS mode, knows ZTE
specific commands, runs OpenWrt Barrier Breaker fork.
While the modem is able to offer IPv6 address, the RNDIS setup is unable
to complete if there is an IPv6 adress.
While it works in ACM+RNDIS mode, the user experience isn't as good as
with "proto 3g": the modem happily serves a local IP (192.168.1.xxx)
without internet access. Of course, if the modem has enough time
(for example at the second dialup), it will serve a public IP.
Modifing the DHCP Lease (to a short interval before connect and back to
default while finalizing) is a workaround to get a public IP at the
first try.
A safe workaround for this is to excercise an offline script of the
pingcheck program: simply restart (ifdown - ifup) the connection.
Another pitfall is that the modem writes a few messages at startup,
which confuses the manufacturer detection algorithm and got disabled.

daemon.notice netifd: Interface 'mikrotik' is now down
A workaround for this is to use the "delay" option in the interface
configuration.
I want to thank Forum members dchard (in topic Adding support for
MikroTik hAP ac3 LTE6 kit (D53GR_5HacD2HnD)) [1]
and mrhaav (in topic OpenWrt X86_64 + Mikrotik R11e-LTE6) [2]
for sharing their experiments and works.

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
-
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.
