Linksys E7350 Serial Port Problem or downgrade method

I would try the initramfs kernel bin, but that's unlikely to work from the web interface.

What's happening is clear, there's rt1800 and e7350 out there with corrupted boot partition 1 that only boot from partition 2.

Connecting UART allows the uboot to finally format the partition 1 allowing openwrt to install.

Sounds like I'm going to have to open up it up after all then.

Success!! :+1:

Had to dive into the unit and hook up an serial cable to select uploading the firmware via tftp. The -kernel.bin was the only firmware which was able to boot properly. From there, I was able to SCP a custom -sysupgrade.bin with luci and install it via sysupgrade from SSH. The radios seem to be working properly (at least the 5 Ghz) which is the only one I need to run the unit in Client Mode.

Damn, I went through gthe exact same thing you did with the exact same base version and unsigned version.

I read this and picked one up as I assumed it would get official support soon:
ramips: add support for Linksys E7350 by neheb · Pull Request #4470 · openwrt/openwrt · GitHub

Wonder if I should wait it out or just return it...

It’s already merged. Just flash a snapshot build

I had the same issue as bliss.

Tried all 3 snapshot options from here:
OpenWrt Firmware Selector

snapshot image radio can not work I tried already.

Were there any error messages in dmesg?

No here is full booting log.

But in snapshot I never seem the wireless tab .

wlan0 and wlan1 are present

edit: run firstboot

Did anyone get this working without needing to hook up a serial cable and simply install from stock?

I flashed SNAPSHOT r22400-1558bbd116 to this device last night and it's working perfectly. The LED configuration needs work. I can only control the two amber LEDs and the blue power LED. The blue wifi activity led is constantly flashing and I wish I could disable this however this LED is not listed in /sys/class/leds

/sys/class/leds# ls
amber:wan   amber:wps   blue:power  mt76-phy0   mt76-phy1

Need a new entry here for blue:wifi or blue:activity. The mt76-phy0 and mt76-phy1 are for the switch ports as far as I can tell.

can;t do it.

This used to be present but does not work properly with DSA.

Small improvement for E7350 and RT1800:

Open /etc/init.d/set-irq-affinity in your favourite editor and change
for irq in $(grep "mt76..e" /proc/interrupts | cut -d: -f1 | sed 's, *,,')
to
for irq in $(grep "mt7[69]..e" /proc/interrupts | cut -d: -f1 | sed 's, *,,')
and reboot.

You can check cat /proc/interrupts output before and after.

Made this change and rebooted. No difference in LED appearance or configuration that I can tell. What difference is supposed to be noticed?

I'll PR this.

This is for IRQ balancing, see https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/irqbalance
Posted here as this is probably the most active thread about these devices.

Since the initial problem seems to be solved and this discussion is drifting off-topic, I'm setting a timer for this topic to close.
Please open new topics for any other problems not related to this one.
Thanks!
