Install Openwrt on Kuwfi wr181

Hardware Questions and Recommendations
1

Hi all,

First of all I want to say that I am used to use OpenWRT but not at all about installing it on none officially yet supported hardware. Please excuse my ignorance.

I got myself a WR181 from Kuwfi. The provided firmware(old OpenWRT version) doesn't not really match my needs. (I am also curious how to install OpenWRT on it).

I have access to the serial port (115200 8N1).
Here is what I've learned from it:

Hardware:
Boot and Recovery Environment for Embedded Devices
Copyright (C) 2018 HackPascal hackpascal@gmail.com
Build date 2018-12-29 [git-135bed9]
Version 1.1 (r1266)

DRAM: 64MB
Platform: MediaTek MT7628AN/MT7688AN ver 1, eco 2
Board: HiWiFi HC5661A
Clocks: CPU: 575MHz, Bus: 191MHz, Ref: 25MHz
Flash: Winbond W25Q64 (8MB) on mt7628-spi.0
rt5350-eth: Using MAC address c8:ee:a6:61:2d:26
eth0: MediaTek MT7628 built-in 5-port 10/100M switch

From breed WebUI I could make a full backup of the current memory.
Then went ahead and installed openwrt-23.05.4-ramips-mt76x8-mediatek_mt7628an-eval-board-initramfs-kernel.bin

So far so good.
But ...
I identified at least three problems.

  • The router reboots on its own every 5 to 15min.
  • The MAC address changes after each reboot
  • The Quectel EC200A-EU is not listed in USB devices (In OEM Boot Logs below the modem is attached to /dev/ttyUSB0)

Any help would be really appreciated.

I guess the OP missed your post

5

Yes I red this about ram and flash, but since the original firmware was already a custom openwrt I was hoping I could manage to make it as small as possible.
I do not need luci, the traffic will be very low and without complicated routing.

6

Sure, but it'll be your own personal hobby project, since official support ain't happening.

Of course, I do not ask for any official support. Was just hoping I could get hints from experts. Should I post all of this somewhere else ?

8

Do you have OEM boot log - the netbooted image shows 16MB flash? Can you read a block past 8MB?

9

Yes here.

Unfortunately I do not have access to the OS itself, SSH and Telnet are Password protected and of course KuWfi didn't want to provide credentials...

I do not know how to answer this question "Can you read a block past 8MB?".
How can I test this ? From the bootloader ?

10

It is 8MB flash, the map in your initramfs does not match.

11

Thanks for the hint, I'll look at how to built it with the right map

12

Note it is not in order. Check "kernel" with binwalk for loader offsets. You got kernel+rootfs+rootfs_data available. latest needs to be like 1MB to not die when user installs package.

13

I was lured by the low low price on AliExpress, so I'm wondering the same thing: can an (older) stock OpenWrt be made to work on the hardware? I mainly would like to be able to use this as an admin fallback solution, preferrably with tailscale.

14

If you got the device by accident you can pick up work from here.
Nobody has stock firmware except one dumped from device.

15

Tailscale is a huge package it isn’t going to fit on an 8mb device unfortunately

16

Oh well, it was cheap :slight_smile: The stock firmware seems to be working well enough (except for IPv6 support?) so I'll just combine it with a second cheap system to run Tailscale on.
