I am able to choose ath79 as target for my WNDR 3700v4 (NAND storage). Does this mean that it's already ported to ath79 and it will work if i build firmware with just this change in menuconfig?
EDIT:
Fount out it's already ported https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/target/linux/ath79/dts/ar9344_netgear_wndr3700-v4.dts
That's correct. It means that it has been ported.
FYI - https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/targets/ar71xx-ath79 shows devices that have been ported from ar71xx-ath79
See also above:
Why tp-link 1043nd v1 is not shown as ported?
What do you mean?
# Target Subtarget â Brand Model Version Unsupported functions Device Page Device Techdata
69 ar71xx-ath79 generic TP-Link TL-WR1043ND v1.x tl-wr1043nd View/Edit data
If target = ar71xx-ath79 â devices with this target can be found in both, ar71xx and ath79
There is a file named tplink_tl-wr1043nd-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin in https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/19.07.0-rc2/targets/ath79/generic/
Oh, I see it now. Sry.
Some boards only exist on ath79, so checking there as well may be valuable.
Well I have the wr842n/v2 and I can't get wifi to show up. I tried the one in snapshot, the image builder, and nothing. the wlan device does ntk even show up. I'm trying to find a place we're it says if it is supported or not and I ant find any reference.
It is supported, it is very similar to 841 v8 (plus USB)
Can you provide a kernel log (dmesg) with the ath79 target flashed?
I added WNDR3700 v4 in the list. But did not describe whole process in that post. Here is what i did.
I always use to git pull new code and update feeds and compile my own firwmare and include many packages and patches. After compilation it gave me both images ar71xx and ath79. So i first upgraded my router with ar71xx and then ath79 image. I had to tick force option in GUI. That worked well. I then changed default configuration to what i had previously with no problems and router works without any issues. Thank's to all who worked and works on this amazing project!
+8 MB of flash against 4 MB
I recreated the image now and the packages it downloaded where a different set (i didn't have to fix the kernel package this time around) and the wifi works now. Thank you
OpenWrt 21.02.0-rc4
Netgear WNDR4300 (v1) (same as WNDR3700 v4 but with 3T3R antennas for 5G)
broken
Even with a clean flash, I had to recover to twice.
I would need to use JTAG to find out what's wrong.
To use JTAG is not an issue, but I need some guidance, of what exactly is needed.
edit: ah, I see - dead thread...
sorry >.<
