Specs (same as in v1):
- MT7628AN (575 MHz)
- 64MB RAM
- 8MB of flash (SPI NOR)
- 1x 10/100Mbps Ethernet (MT7628AN built-in switch with vlan)
- 1x 2.4GHz wifi (MT7628AN)
- 1x 5Ghz wifi (MT7612E)
- 4x LEDs (5 GPIO-controlled)
- 1x reset button
- 1x WPS button
The only and important difference between v1 & v3 is in flash memory
layout, so pls don't interchange these 2 builds!
Installation through web-ui (on OEM factory firmware):
1. Visit http://tplinkrepeater.net or the configured IP address of
your RE305 v3 (default 192.168.0.254).
2. Log in with the password you've set during initial setup of the
RE305 (there is no default password).
3. Go to Settings -> System Tools -> Firmware upgrade
4. Click Browse and select the OpenWRT image with factory.bin suffix
(not sysupgrade.bin)
5. A window with a progress bar will appear. Wait until it completes.
6. The RE305 will reboot into OpenWRT and serve DHCP requests on the
ethernet port.
7. Connect an RJ45 cable from the RE305 to your computer and access
LuCI at http://192.168.1.1/ to configure (or use ssh).
Disassembly:
Just unscrew 4 screws in the corners & take off the back cover.
Serial is exposed to the right side of the main board (in the middle)
and marked with TX/RX/3V3/GND, but the holes are filled with solder.
Installation through serial:
1. connect trough serial (1n8, baudrate=57600)
2. setup the TFTP server and connect it via ethernet
(ipaddr=192.168.0.254 of device, serverip=192.168.0.184 - your pc)
3. boot from a initramfs image first (choose 1 in the bootloader
options)
4. test it a bit with that, then proceed to run sysupgrade build
MAC addresses as verified by OEM firmware:
use OpenWrt address reference
LAN eth0 *:d2 label
2g wlan0 *:d1 label - 1
5g wlan1 *:d0 label - 2
The label MAC address can be found in config 0x2008.

Define nvmem-cells and convert mtd-mac-address to nvmem implementation.
The conversion is done with an automated script.

Rework patch 681-NET-add-mtd-mac-address-support to implement
only the function to read the mac-address from mtd.
Generalize mtd-mac-address-increment function so it can be applied
to any source of of_get_mac_address.
Rename any mtd-mac-address-increment to mac-address-increment.
Rename any mtd-mac-address-increment-byte to mac-address-increment-byte.
This should make simplify the conversion of target to nvmem implementation.

Like in the previous patch for ath79 target, this will remove the
"devicename" from LED labels in ramips as well.
The devicename is removed in DTS files and 01_leds, consolidation
of definitions into DTSI files is done where (easily) possible,
and migration scripts are updated.
For the latter, all existing definitions were actually just
devicename migrations anyway. Therefore, those are removed and
a common migration file is created in target base-files. This is
actually another example of how the devicename removal makes things
easier.

The "/dts-v1/;" identifier is supposed to be present once at the
top of a device tree file after the includes have been processed.
In ramips, we therefore requested to have in the DTS files so far,
and omit it in the DTSI files. However, essentially the syntax of
the parent mtxxxx/rtxxxx DTSI files already determines the DTS
version, so putting it into the DTS files is just a useless repetition.
Consequently, this patch puts the dts-v1 statement into the top-level
SoC-based DTSI files, and removes all other occurences.
Since the dts-v1 statement needs to be before any other definitions,
this also moves the includes accordingly where necessary.

chosen/bootargs are defined to the same value in device DTS files
that is already set in the SoC DTSI. Remove the redundant definitions.

Upstream pinctrl driver in drivers/staging uses
groups/function/ralink,num-gpios instead of
ralink,group/ralink,function/ralink,nr-gpio
Replace these properties in dts as well as the pinctrl driver in

upstream driver merged 3 separated gpio banks into one gpio node.
and gpioX Y in our local driver should be replaced with gpio X*32+Y.
This patch is created using the following sed command:

Specification:
SoC: MediaTek MT7628AN
RAM: 64MiB
Flash: 8MiB
Wifi:
- 2.4GHz: MT7628AN
- 5GHz: MT7612EN
LAN: 1x 10/100 Mbps
Flash instructions:
Flash factory image through stock firmware WEB UI.
Back to stock is possible by using TFTP and stripping down the Firmware
provided by TP-Link to a initramfs.
The flash space between 0x650000 and 0x7f0000
is blank in the stock firmware so I left it out as well.
