Pull request made

11

ok, my pull request has been refused. How frustrating.

And sill no clue how to port this ti "ath79". Isn't there a RTFM somewhere ?

12

In the main, since your device seems very similar to others, see how their DTS is created through #include statements, learn how to add/remove/modify DTS nodes and properties, and do it. There doesn’t look to be much involved from the changes in the mach file.

13

Yes, but actually all other simialr e316n, e320n, etc.. are in ar71xx , not in ath79

So, somehow, I need to know how does the ar71xx -> ath79 process works. Isn't there a doc somewhere ?

14

Take a look at Porting guide ar71xx to ath79?

16

People wishing to build based on your PR can always download a patch from https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1955.patch (add .patch to the PR URL). It then can be locally applied with something like git am 1955.patch. I would suggest checking out a new branch before applying the patch, rather than applying it directly to the local copy of master.

Edit:

The above URL comes from taking the PR URL https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1955 and adding the .patch extension to get https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/1955.patch (which then redirects to the patch content URL, shown above).

"Patience is a virtue"

With the lead developers trying to get things wrapped up for a reliable v19 release, I can't get too worked up about new devices not being added. Yes, I have one in the queue myself.

the language is Chinese, some help please

24

This device is not yet officially supported by OpenWrt. This means that there is no prebuilt image available on OpenWrt servers ready for downloading.

If you want to install OpenWrt on this device...

hi, i compiled an image, flashed and working. but i see two no right thinks:
the device have 16 MB flash but looks like only 8 MB available, the txpower should be 27 dbm and it's only 25.

26

You should add the usual hardware information to your PR.
For examples see other commits that added support for a specific device.

27

In deed, advertised power is not the actual

28

@tmomas added

Some more useful data to add to the PR:
I guess there are 2 Eth-ports. Are they 100Mbit or Gbit?
How many LEDs (if any)?
How many Buttons (if any)?
What power supply (PoE spec? Powersupply other than PoE?)
Wifi is b/g/n I guess?
Serial interface available, and if yes, serial conection parameters?
