Thanks,That got me to a login pop up. But could not long in. Tired linksys email and password and a few others but could not get in. Suggestion?
You have to first log in to the router via the normal webpage of the router. Default pw is admin. You can reset the router pw by holding the reset button while the unit is on.
Thanks a bunch @NoTengoBattery and all others for your hard work on this. I got your RC4 and installed it on a MR9000, and it went smoother than the initial setup of the device using stock. So far, I've only tested but not used/deployed this device, but it worked really well.
I've not seen MR9000 port for official OpenWRT RC4, does that mean it's not going to be part of the official release? Maybe it's going to live as a snapshot until next version?
I'm fairly new in terms of my knowledge of OpenWRT ecosystem, so I'm just wondering how such custom / community builds live for devices that are officially unsupported by OpenWRT releases.
When there's an official point release for OpenWRT, do the custom/community builds fall behind until full release?
Hi.
I tried this, and looks like default works good. But when I tried to update software list from web page, I receive this(from ssh the same):

Hi, I want to check if there's a openwrt FW and upgrade process for MR9000?
Yes it works, more info in this thread:
Hi reka, I used the MR9000 .dts file here as the template and built a hacked firmware (21.02.0-rc4) for an MR6350 September last year. The firmware has been working smoothly since. Thanks for the trailblazing work you did to MR9000. Now I am thinking of upgrading the MR6350 to a tri-band router and it comes down to either MR8300 or MR9000. I would prefer MR9000 to MR8300 if both are in the stable OpenWrt release. But at this moment, MR9000 is not and I am wondering if you have a timeline of when that may happen, assuming you are working on it.
To tell you the truth , I'm not actively working on it so regrettably there is no timeline.
Understood. I know enough to build firmware but not technical enough to understand dts or kernel internal but but build a 'hacked' firmware is quite troublesome when one only does it once in a while. I actually have lost all the details of what I did last year. I guess I will just go with MR8300 but there is no rush.
Hi!
Sorry for recover this old thread, but I recently purchased 2 of this on amazon prime, and seems that the router is "locked" to 450mbs on the 3rd band. I've installed the NoTengoBattery firmware, and configured both routers with WDS (performance is best that mesh). Two routers sync with a 1733 speed, but the maximum I can get is 450mbs. With the oem firmware and mesh, performance seems similiar. Do yo have any improvement since last year?
I think these are "CPU" limited to about 450 Mbps...
Strange, i have done some test installing iperf and config as a server, and cable performance is about 780mb, iperf config as client, cable performance is 980, So the limit shouldn't be the cpu
So is there much to do to get this into OpenWRT official release? And anyone care to give a performance comparison vs the OEM firmware?
Is this still the case?
Is it possible just to fool Openwrt into thinking the MR9000 is just a MR8300?
When I try and install OpenVPN-OpenSSL via luci I get the following:

Then the following when I click on "Allow overwriting conflicting package files":

I am on a generic 23.05.0rc2 on my MR9000 all is working fine other than it's not recognising the kernal and as such isn't liking installing software.
Would love to get this working so I can install nordvpn on my router.
You really, really, really shouldn't even try, there are separate images for a reason - even in case the devices are very similar.
For the rest, expected behaviour:
