Orange pi R1 plus support

There is no news from Openwrt maintainers.
If you are looking for the most up-to-date image, consider compiling it yourself.

Detailed instructions are documented at:

but instead of doing

git clone https://git.openwrt.org/openwrt/openwrt.git

do

git clone https://github.com/nebulakl/openwrt.git

I do not want to provide pre-compiled images because everyone has their own needs and some packages require specific kernel modules. Since my source code is different from Openwrt's build server's, you will see errors like this if you install such packages via opkg install

The installed version of package kernel is not compatible, require 5.4.117-1-8f820b1b… while 5.4.113-1-7fc72863… is installed.

meaning: you should select all software packages you need during compile time.

thank you so much!
I will try compile

try compile this source, have error like this when select Network -> Interface on Luci. Please help. Thank you

That is not something I can help with. I use the built-in functions provided by Openwrt to set up network devices, and if these functions are broken, you should report bugs to Openwrt devs instead.

The WeTransfer file expired after 30 days, can you upload the build on another site? like google drive?

Sorry I have to look for it. I don't have the board anymore. Let me check my old desktop if it's stored there.

Hello, friends. I read this thread to the end, but I could not find a solution to my problem. Help me figure out the firmware of the Orange Pi R1 Plus. OpenWRT not see the USB-modem HILINK LTE. I tried a lot of different firmwares, but no success.

That is because the default config does not contain any USB Ethernet drivers (except the onboard RTL8153B). You will need to figure out the driver for the dongle, enable it and recompile your own firmware.

As the R1 Plus is not upstreamed yet, you cannot just download the driver via opkg and hope it will work. Compile from source code is required.

Thank you very much for your advice!
Please help me to do this.
My knowledge is not enough to do this.
Do I need to install an additional driver?
I don't really know how to do this.

Today i tried to build a fw from

with minimal configuration (only uhttpd, openvpn and docker) . The fwd runs well, but the filesystem seems has problem with only a few MB free ( i use sdcard 16gb)

image

Is there any wrong in configuration before make?

If it's a regular FS, fire up gparted and resize it.

I found a video clip where a man made friends with a modem and an Orange Pi R1 Plus. In the description of the video, the firmware is attached. I installed it, but the modem didn't even turn on. Here is the video:

Friends, please help me fix the firmware to work with the modem!

depends on what modem you have, doesn't it ?

but you should really ask the guy who posted the video and the FW.

Judging by the title of the video, the modem is the same as mine.

yeah, you're probably correct, there's only one 'HILINK LTE' modem out there ...
