(MR42 Only) Installation via diagnostic mode:
If you can successfully complete step 1 then you can continue to install
via this method without having to open the device. Otherwise please use
the standard UART method. Please note that when booting via TFTP, some
Ethernet devices, in particular those on laptops, will not connect in
time, resulting in TFTP boot not succeeding. In this instance it is
advised to connect via a switch.
1. Hold down reset at power on and keep holding, after around 10 seconds
if the orange LED changes behaviour to begin flashing, proceed to
release reset, then press reset two times. Ensure that the LED has
turned blue. Note that flashing will occur on some devices, but it
will not be possible to change the LED colour using the reset button.
In this case it will still be possible to continue with this install
method.
2. Set your IP to 192.168.1.250. Set up a TFTP server serving
mr42_u-boot.mbn and
openwrt-ipq806x-generic-meraki_mr42-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb, obtained
from [1].
3. Use telnet and connect to 192.168.1.1. Run the following commands to
install u-boot. Note that all these commands are critical, an error
will likely render the device unusable.
Option 3.1:
If you are sure you have set up the TFTP server correctly you can
run this script on the device. This will download and flash the
u-boot image immediately:
`/etc/update_uboot.sh 192.168.1.250 mr42_u-boot.mbn`
Once completed successfully, power off the device.
Option 3.2:
If you are unsure the TFTP server is correctly set up you can
obtain the image and flash manually:
3.2.1. `cd /tmp`
3.2.2. `tftp-hpa 192.168.1.250 -m binary -c get mr42_u-boot.mbn`
3.2.3. Confirm file has downloaded correctly by comparing the
md5sum:
`md5sum mr42_u-boot.mbn`
3.2.4. The following are the required commands to write the image.
`echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_nand/boot_layout
mtd erase /dev/mtd1
nandwrite -pam /dev/mtd1 mr42_u-boot.mbn
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_nand/boot_layout`
Important: You must observe the output of the `nandwrite`
command. Look for the following to verify writing is occurring:
`Writing data to block 0 at offset 0x0
Writing data to block 1 at offset 0x20000
Writing data to block 2 at offset 0x40000`
If you do not see this then do not power off the device. Check
your previous commands and that mr42_u-boot.mbn was downloaded
correctly. Once you are sure the image has been written you
can proceed to power off the device.
4. Hold the reset button and power on the device. This will immediately
begin downloading the appropriate initramfs image and boot into it.
Note: If the device does not download the initramfs, this is likely
due to the interface not being brought up in time. Changing Ethernet
source to a router or switch will likely resolve this. You can also
try manually setting the link speed to 10Mb/s Half-Duplex.
5. Once a solid white LED is displayed on the device, continue to the
UART installation method, step 6.
Standard installation via UART - MR42 & MR52
1. Disassemble the device and connect a UART header. The header pinout
is as follows:
1 - 3.3v
2 - TXD
3 - RXD
4 - GND
Important: You should only connect TXD, RXD and GND. Connecting
3.3v may damage the device.
2. Set your IP to 192.168.1.250. Set up a TFTP server serving
openwrt-ipq806x-generic-meraki_(mr42|mr52)-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb.
Separately obtain the respective sysupgrade image.
3. Run the following commands, preferably from a Linux host. The
mentioned files, including ubootwrite.py and u-boot images, can be
obtained from [1].
`python ubootwrite.py --write=(mr42|mr52)_u-boot.bin`
The default for "--serial" option is /dev/ttyUSB0.
4. Power on the device. The ubootwrite script will upload the image to
the device and launch it. The second stage u-boot will in turn load
the initramfs image by TFTP, provided the TFTP server is running
correctly. This process will take about 13 minutes. Once a solid
white LED is displayed, the image has successfully finished
loading. Note: If the image does not load via TFTP, try again with
the Ethernet link to 10Mb/s Half-Duplex.
5. (MR42 only) Do not connect over the network. Instead connect over
the UART using minicom or similar tool. To replace u-boot with
the network enabled version, please run the following commands.
Note that in the provided initramfs images, the u-boot.mbn file
is located in /root:
If you have not used the provided initramfs, you must ensure you
are using an image with "boot_layout" ECC configuration enabled in
the Kernel. This will be version 5.10 or higher. If you do not do
this correctly the device will be bricked.
`insmod mtd-rw i_want_a_brick=1
mtd erase /dev/mtd8
nandwrite -pam /dev/mtd8 /root/mr42_u-boot.mbn`
After running nandwrite, ensure you observe the following output:
`Writing data to block 0 at offset 0x0
Writing data to block 1 at offset 0x20000
Writing data to block 2 at offset 0x40000`
6. (Optional) If you have no further use for the Meraki OS, you can
remove all other UBI volumes on ubi0 (mtd11), including diagnostic1,
part.old, storage and part.safe. You must not remove the ubi1 ART
partition (mtd12).
`for i in diagnostic1 part.old storage part.safe ; do
ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N $i
done`
7. Proceed to flash the sysupgrade image via luci, or else download or
scp the image to /tmp and use the sysupgrade command.

The out-of-tree qcom-smem patches traditionally displayed mtd partition names
in upper case, starting with the new mainline qcom-smem support in kernel v5.10,
it switched to normalizing the partition names to lower case.
While both 5.4 and 5.10 were supported in the target, we carried a workaround
to support both of them. Since the target has dropped 5.4 recently, those
can be removed now.

This adds support for the Netgear Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500.
It is the successor to the Netgear Nighthawk R7800 and shares almost
identical hardware to that device.
The stock firmware is a heavily modified version of OpenWRT.
Specifications:
SoC: Qualcomm Atheros IPQ8065
RAM: 512 MB
Storage: 256 MiB NAND Flash
Wireless: 2x Qualcomm Atheros QCA9984
Ethernet: 2x 1000/100/10 dedicated interfaces
Switch: 5x 1000/100/10 external ports
USB: 2x 3.0 ports
More information:
Manufacturer page: https://www.netgear.com/gaming/xr500/
Almost identical to Netgear R7800
Differences (r7800 > xr500):
Flash: 128MiB > 256MiB
Removed esata
swapped leds:
usb1 (gpio 7 > 8)
usb2 (gpio 8 > 26)
guest/esata (gpio 26 > 7)
MAC addresses:
On the OEM firmware, the mac addresses are:
WAN: *:50 art 0x6
LAN: *:4f art 0x0 (label)
2G: *:4f art 0x0
5G: *:51 art 0xc
Installation:
Install via Web Interface (preferred):
Utilize openwrt-ipq806x-netgear_xr500-squashfs-factory.img
Install via TFTP recovery:
1.Turn off the power, push and hold the reset button (in a hole on
backside) with a pin
2.Turn on the power and wait till power led starts flashing white
(after it first flashes orange for a while)
3.Release the reset button and tftp the factory img in binary mode.
The power led will stop flashing if you succeeded in transferring
the image, and the router reboots rather quickly with the new
firmware.
4.Try to ping the router (ping 192.168.1.1). If does not respond,
then tftp will not work either.
Uploading the firmware image with a TFTP client
$ tftp 192.168.1.1
bin
put openwrt-ipq806x-netgear_xr500-squashfs-factory.img
Note:
The end of the last partition is at 0xee00000. This was chosen
by the initial author, but nobody was able to tell why this
particular arbitrary size was chosen. Since it's not leaving
too much empty space and it's the only issue left, let's just
keep it for now.

To check what revision your router is, restore one of these config backups
through the stock firmware to get ssh access then run
"cat /proc/device-tree/model".
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/askey-rac2v1k-support/15830/17
The revision number on the board doesn't seem to be very consistent so that's
why this is needed. You can also run printenv in the uboot console and if
machid is set to 177d, that means your router is rev6.
Note: Don't install this if the router is being rented from an ISP. The defined
partition layout is different from the OEM one and even if you changed the
layout to match, backing up and restoring the OEM firmware breaks /overlay so
nothing will save and the router will likely enter a bootloop.
How to install:
Method 1: Install without opening the case using SSH and tftp
You'll need:
RAC2V1K-SSH.zip:
https://github.com/lmore377/openwrt-rt4230w/blob/master/RAC2V1K-SSH.zip
initramfs and sysupgrade images
Connect to one of the router's LAN ports
Download the RAC2V1K-SSH.zip file and restore the config file that
corresponds to your router's firmware (If you're firmware is newer than what's
in the zip file, just restore the 1.1.16 file)
After a reboot, you should be able to ssh into the router with username:
"4230w" and password: "linuxbox" or "admin". Run the following commannds
fw_setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 #IP of router, can be anything as long as
it's in the same subnet as the server
fw_setenv serverip 10.42.0.1# #IP of tftp server that's set up in next
steps
fw_setenv bootdelay 8
fw_setenv bootcmd "tftpboot initramfs.bin; bootm; bootipq"
Don't reboot the router yet.
Install and set up a tftp server on your computer
Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer (use this for
serverip in the above commands)
Rename the initramfs image to initramfs.bin, and host it with the tftp
server
Reboot the router. If you set up everything right, the router led should
switch over to a slow blue glow which means openwrt is booted. If for some
reason the file doesn't get loaded into ram properly, it should still boot to
the OEM firmware.
After openwrt boots, ssh into it and run these commands:
fw_setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 && setenv mtdparts
mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware && ubi
read 0x44000000 kernel 0x6e0000 && bootm"
fw_setenv bootdelay 2
After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.
Method 2: Install with serial access (Do this if something fails and you can't
boot after using method 1)
You'll need:
initramfs and sysupgrade images
Serial access:
https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/askey/askey_rt4230w_rev6#opening_the_case
Install and set up a tftp server
Set a static ip on the ethernet interface of your computer
Download the initramfs image, rename it to initramfs.bin, and host it with
the tftp server
Connect the wan port of the router to your computer
Interrupt U-Boot and run these commands:
setenv serverip 10.42.0.1 (You can use whatever ip you set for the computer)
setenv ipaddr 10.42.0.10 (Can be any ip as long as it's in the same subnet)
setenv bootcmd "setenv mtdids nand0=nand0 &&
set mtdparts mtdparts=nand0:0x1A000000@0x2400000(firmware) && ubi part firmware
&& ubi read 0x44000000 kernel 0x6e0000 && bootm"
saveenv
tftpboot initramfs.bin
bootm
After openwrt boots up, figure out a way to get the sysupgrade file onto it
(scp, custom build with usb kernel module included, wget, etc.) then flash it
with sysupgrade. After it finishes flashing, it should reboot, the light should
start flashing blue, then when the light starts "breathing" blue that means
openwrt is booted.

Installation instructions:
Through stock firmware or initramfs.
1.Connect to console
2. Login with root account, if password is unknown then interrupt the boot with f and reset it in failsafe.
3. Transfer factory image
4. Flash the image with ubiformat /dev/mtd1 -y -f <your factory image path>
This will replace the rootfs2 with OpenWrt, if you are currently running from rootfs2 then simply change /dev/mtd1 to /dev/mtd0
Note
Initramfs:
1. Connect to console
2. Transfer the image from TFTP server with tftpboot,
or by using DHCP advertised image with dhcp command.
3. bootm
4. Run ubiformat /dev/mtd1
You need to interrupt the bootloader after rebooting and run:
run altbootcmd
This will switch your active rootfs partition to one you wrote to and boot from it.
So if rootfs1 is active, then it will change it to rootfs2.
This will format the rootfs2 partition, if your active partition is 2 then simply change /dev/mtd1 with /dev/mtd0
If you dont format the partition you will be writing too, then sysupgrade will find existing UBI rootfs and kernel volumes and update those.
This will result in wrong ordering and OpenWrt will panic on boot.
5. Transfer sysupgrade image
6. Flash with sysupgrade -n.
Note that sysupgrade will write the image to rootfs partition that is not currently in use.

While all ath10k eeproms have a checksum field, so far two
functions for patching ath10k MAC address have been present (and
been used).
This merges code to provide a single function ath10k_patch_mac
in caldata.sh, having its name in accordance with ath9k functions.
By doing so, correct MAC patching for current and future ath10k
devices should be ensured.
This patch adds checksum adjustments for several targets on
ath79 and lantiq.

This moves the almost identical calibration data extraction
functions present multiple times in several targets to a single
library file /lib/functions/caldata.sh.
Functions are renamed with more generic names to merge different
variants that only differ in their names.
Most of the targets used find_mtd_chardev, while some used
find_mtd_part inside the extraction code. To merge them, the more
abundant version with find_mtd_chardev is used in the common code.

This changes size and offset set for WiFi caldata extraction and
MAC address adjustment to hexadecimal notation.
This will be much clearer for the reader when numbers are big, and
will also match the style used for mtd-cal-data in DTS files.
Since dd cannot deal with hexadecimal notation, one has to convert
back to decimal by simple $(($hexnum)).

Buffalo WXR-2533DHP is a 2.4/5 GHz band 11ac router, based on Qualcomm
IPQ8064.
The U-Boot on WXR-2533DHP employs a complicated dual firmware
protection scheme against corruptions of the kernel and rootfs
images. See the notes in buffalo.sh for details.
specifications:
- Qualcomm IPQ8064 (384 - 1,400 MHz, 2C2T)
- 512 MB of RAM (DDR3)
- 256 MB of Flash (NAND)
- 4T4R 2.4/5 GHz Wlan (QCA9980)
- 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet
- 10x LEDs, 8x keys (6x buttons, 2x slide-switches)
- 2x USB 3.0 Type-A
- 12VDC/4A AC Adapter
- UART through-hole on PCB
- J3: Vcc, GND, TX, RX from USB port side
- 115200n8
Boot instructions for the initramfs image:
1. Prepare the TFTP server with the initramfs image renamed to
"wxr2300dhp-initramfs.uImage" and IP address "192.168.11.10".
2. Press the "AOSS" button while powering on the WXR-2533DHP.
3. Wait until the "Wireless" LED flashes before releasing the AOSS button.
The WXR-2533DHP will grab the image from TFTP server and will boot it.
Flashing instructions:
To persistently write the firmware, flash an openwrt sysupgrade image
from inside the initramfs, for example transfer
via `scp <sysupgrade> root@192.168.1.1:/tmp` and flash on the device
with `sysupgrade -n /tmp/<sysupgrade>`. Then wait ~120 seconds to
let it finish the flashing process.

Ben Greear reported in his patch:
|Subject: netgear r7800: Fix mac address of radios.
|
|Reloading the driver causes the phyX to change, and that
|caused the MAC address to change.
This is because all ODM/OEMs except QCA bothered to write
the correct MAC address for the ath10k wifi into the
calibration data.
This patch copies over the MAC patching helper functions from ipq40xx's
target/linux/ipq40xx/base-files/etc/hotplug.d/firmware/11-ath10k-caldata
file and converts all the devices to patch the correct MACs into the
extracted calibration data before it gets sent to the driver, which sets
up the device with the correct MAC address. It also removes the entries
in the 10_fix_wifi_mac file as they have served their purpose for good.
Please note the C2600: There is conflicting information on what
the offset for the second wifi is supposed to be. This patch uses
what was specified in 10_fix_wifi_mac.
According to Ben Greear this method is save to use with the
stock firmware too. As he explained that the stock firmware
messes up rx-bssid mask calculation when the MAC is changed
after the first vif is created.

This router is similar to the C2600. Ethernet on WAN + LAN, switch,
sysupgrade, LEDs, buttons and WiFi on 2G + 5G do work. The xDSL modem
and the POTS/DECT interface are not supported yet.
It is not possible to flash LEDE via the TP-Link webinterface. The
image need to be signed. The first 0x200 bytes of the image is the
TP-Link header including the signature. The signature is not validated
by the bootloader. The LEDE image is zeroed in this area.
To install LEDE it is necessary to solder a four pin header to JP2.
Connect a serial interface to this header and interrupt the autostart
of kernel. Transfer the sysupgrade image via TFTP and write it to the
serial flash at 0x320000.
