These boards have AR8327 or QCA8337 external ethernet switch. The SOC also has it's own internal switch where VLAN is now enabled by default. Changes to preinit caused all switches to have VLANs enabled by default even if they are not configured with a topology in uci_defaults (see commit f017f617aecbd47debd4d3a734dc0e471342db96) When both internal and external switches have VLANs, and the external switch has both LAN and WAN, the TX traffic from the SOC cannot flow to the tagged port on the external switch because the VLAN IDs are not matching. So disable the internal switch VLANs by default on these boards. Also, add a topology for the internal switch, so that on LuCI there is not an "unknown topology" warning. In theory, it may be possible to have LAN ports on both switches through internal and external PHYs, but there are no known boards that have this.

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.
