Hi everyone
I got a ZTE MF253L (A board with a 4G Modem preinstalled focused on Brazilian market) a time ago but got no luck finding any way to make it work beyond the carrier firmware
I got all the boot log from TTL (57600, 8N1), but got no way to interact with the shell and I couldn't (for now) remove the shielding on the main and modem boards, getting that the board is a Ralink, with 16MB Flash 64MB RAM and a ZTE MF270 Modem
Is there any way that I could make it work with OpenWRT?
There are the boot logs that I got from the device:
