i try to install the ath79 port and either the 19.07.7 nor the 20.02-rc releases are working.
(btw. installed the ath79 port to an nanostation M5 and this one is working fine! so maybe its ethernet port related? to bad that the wifi isnt enabed by default...).
installed the 19.07.07 ar71xx port and it works fine.
how to proceed to get the port working?
"Does not work" is not really helpful for debugging...
yes its not. what do you need? dunno if it has a serial header inside?
Well, it would be a first start to know what's not working, for example ...

even when the bootloader says that it has 2 ethernet ports only one is populated. maybe there is the problem located.
also as you can see the wifi isnt be detected, too.

so? additional info is needed? which one?
one more thing. the device has 1 eth port only, like the loco devices.
its still not working at the 21.02 release. imho the eth port isnt working. the Eth LED doesnt come up either.
can you show the dts of this device, i cannot find this model under openwrt, that should be really easy to fix
the SWX-M5 is a XM dervate, but with one eth port like the loco models.
where can i pick the dts?
