Request for TP-Link RE220 v1 images (RE200 v3 clone) by someone with a toolchain

For Developers

I think it is not in config because it just isn't there. 'iw list' only shows radio0. I added radio1 to config, enabled it and get 'Phy not found' in system log. Output from 'iw list' for RE200v3 image and RE220v1 image included here:

Okay, thank you. Going to review everything again and maybe build an old image to see if there is any difference. As said, if this is a replica of a RE200v3, it should work.

23

@jedboy, I uploaded another set of firmware files based on the v21.02.3 official version. Do you mind testing them?

24

I'll do the testing soon

Looks like the RE220v1 builds are missing some kernel modules (kmod-mt76x*)

Oh, FFS! This is ridiculous, let me force it. :smiley: Give me a few minutes.

Yes, your download paths are for the official version, not the snapshot; that's why they failed. Anyways, ignore that. I uploaded the IPK file to my folder; please try a manual installation. I checked, and the kmod is in there as "installed". So I don't know why it is not loading or missing from the binaries.

And I uploaded a whole new build with all its packages in a folder inside called target_bin, just in case you want to start from scratch. The third time's the charm.

31

latest build is behaving the same
howerver, I can manually install the ipk you provided and it works (radio1 shows up)

Okay, cool. Test it for a while, I'll see what's going on because to me all look fine. Hey, @Borromini, do you know why the module is not loaded by default? I'm sure I'm compiling it, I even included it in include/target.mk without much success.

33

maybe this helps?
Kernel Module missing from image

Would it make sense to build the RE200v3 as a test?

@amteza Can you share your diffconfig? In a pastebin e.g.? And the RE220 v1 bit of your mt76x8.mk Makefile. The mt76x0e kmod is part of the device definition if you copy/pasted the RE200 v3 stanza, so it should be included.

35

Hi, @borromi,

Here you go diffconfig (click me), and yes, I copied the RE200 v3 stanza, so I'm not sure what I'm missing here.

And I added the following content to include/target.mk just trying to force the modules into the binary:

I have a second RE220v1 still running stock TP-Link that I'm planning to test factory image on once we think it is all sorted. Just as well, the boot interupt over serial doesn't seem to work or my timing is bad.

37

Hey, @jedboy, let's see if @Borromini can point me to what's missing. The boot interrupt (safe loader, right?) should work as I patched firmware-utils and compiled binaries with it. Is it just ignoring you pressing a button during the load sequence?

38

That diffconfig looks okay to me. You shouldn't need to include the mt76 kmods in target.mk since they are already defined in the Makefile (well kmod-mt76x0e will pull in all necessary dependencies).

Might be handier to run a make with -j1 V=sc and log that, then check the log for where kmod-mt76x0e fails to get picked up.

No errors were found. @jedboy, I cleaned up the cache and launched a new compilation. I removed everything from the shared folder and updated the whole set of files. Would you be so kind as to test this new version, please?

I installed the sysupgrade file of new version you just shared. Same problem, no radio1 in /etc/config/wireless. I will do some more testing and report back.
