Recently I bought a D-Link DIR-819, but sadly there's no OpenWRT/LEDE/DD-WRT or other customized firmware available. So I decide to port LEDE to this model.
I found a backdoor on this device, so I have collected some information about this device:
SoC: MediaTek MT-7260A
Wireless: Ralink RT-2860
LAN Ports: 10/100 Mbps x 4
WAN: 10/100 Mbps x 1
Flash (NOR): 8 MiB
RAM: 64 MiB
Partitions:
0: "boot": Bootloader [Modified version of U-Boot, called "TBS Bootloader"]
1: "kernel": Linux kernel (lzma compressed, version 2.6.36, compiled using gcc 3.4.2)
2: "rootfs": SquashFS
3: "multi-lang": This partition is believed to place Web UI language packs for stock fw, on mine, it's all 0xFF
This device is relatively new one (released around Nov, 2016), and it doesn't yet have a page on wikidevi.com
So my current problem is, in stock firmware, I couldn't see GPIO related information. There's no gpio folder under /sys/class, it's really wired to me. Can someone give me some hints about this?
Hello, I was recently given this router, I'm trying to update over the web but it gives an error, I'm trying to access it via serial but I'm not finding much information on how to connect to the serial.
with the basics I already have the files for it now I just need to access the terminal to be able to test.
This router needs a TBS modified firmware...
I have ported this router to openwrt 19.07... I'm doing a master build to submit to openwrt master.
You can use those commits to compile a firmware in 19
after you commented on this commit, create a image of the repository, but for those who updated the router to version above v1.01 cannot upload the image through the web interface. for those who updated will have to do via serial, and something I'm still testing. the serial connections that you normally find easy on the internet end up being the j2 connectors. the j2 connectors are not giving results, I'll take another look at how it goes up the serial because I couldn't make a successful serial connection. I managed to fork the repository to do the tests in Dir 819.
I managed to put the firmware on the router but it ended up not going up, I don't know if something went wrong, but the CPU ended up getting too hot and I turned it off, I don't know if I can rewrite his firmware straight into memory but I'll see if I have answers yet.
ps: it still tries to boot the system but ends up locking up after the bootloader because the leds work normally and then they lock up with the leds of: wan, wps, 2.4ghz wifi and power led
it meets the requirements of openwrt but we still have to test the builds made for it. i am also with mine but i need to rewrite the original firmware so i can test again. and for further testing I was looking for serial connectors, something that the Brazilian model doesn't seem to have.
I created a repository on Github with the test builds from the anlix-io branch and some things I found more about the router.
the firmware installation can be done through the web interfaces if you are in the dlink firmware version "v1.0", if you are above the version you will have to go back to the firmware version v1.0.
I also don't know the dir-819 has a serial connection, but I link on the dd-wrt forum it does have a serial connection but they don't tell where it is.
No, this is for downgrouding to v1.0, the openwrt builds are in the same repository release, but I'm not testing it, and I don't know if it's currently working.
