Support for TP-LINK TL-WR802N V4

Hello,
I'm trying to "add support" (well, see if it's possible in the first place) for lede/openwrt and the tp link tl-wr802N v4.

According to https://wikidevi.com/wiki/TP-LINK_TL-WR802N_v4.x, the SoC is a MediaTek MT7628N, also used in TL-WR840N v4 for example, so that should be supported.

So, I opened up a tl-wr802n v4 and start searching for serial pins (usually, those are named TP_IN, TP_OUT, I read).

I found none.

So, what would be the next step to try to have lede running on these devices?
I took many photos of the board, if someone see something i missed…

Thanks,

Rémy

All the images: https://ptpb.pw/uLLM.zip (i'm not allowed to put more than one image in this post, it seems).

Have a look under that metal shield on top of the PCB.
Or maybe, try TP2 and TP3.

I just looked under the metal shield (under which there is the soc), and no tp_in or tp_out pin. I'll try tp2 and tp3 in a few hours.

It looks like Wikidevi specs are not correct.
According to GPL sources and your pictures it has 64MB of RAM and 8MB of flash.
This branch should work:https://github.com/robimarko/openwrt/tree/WR802N-v4

But you gotta verify partition layout,MAC adress and calibration

Thanks for your answer.

To verify the partition layout, I'd need the serial access, right?

I'm not sure about what you say about « MAC adress and calibration », do you have some link to some documentation about these things? (I obviously know what a MAC address is, but you mean the hardware <-> software equivalence? What about the calibration?).

Rémy

Yes, partition layout would be written in bootlog.
Or if you have SSH access it could be found in dmesg output.

By MAC I mean that MAC address on sticker matches one in ifconfig.
Calibration will be fine as long as partition layout is known

Wikidevi should be updated, once the flash/RAM chip has been verified.

Yeah,I am telling what I have saw in GPL and on pictures he provided.
It would be good that @rgrunbla read flash and RAM part numbers

Good news everyone!

So, there is a serial port at all, it's the TP3 and TP2 pin, as @pepe2k correctly guessed.

I obtained a sample from the output when booting, but it seems it's noisy (surely because my setup sucks).

Do you think you need more/cleaner output?

Rémy

Yeah,since this is not even half of the bootlog.
Most interesting part is just after kernel starts loading.
Bootloader part is also interesting

You need to add ground connection too.

Do you know where I could put the ground connection? Anywhere on the shielding metal should be good, or not?

I'll try to get a clean output.

Rémy

It will be good if they share the same ground.
Check with a multimeter if the ground on chassis and shield is the same as one on components on the board

Ok, so I didn't have a multimeter, and I didn't find the ground, but here is the complete log (i think): https://ptpb.pw/-h_B.txt

Yeah,it has partitions identical to 840N v4.
So you can build tree https://github.com/robimarko/openwrt/tree/WR802N-v4

If you dont have a way to build it,PM me

I have a linux box, so I should be able to build it. It seems the 802N-v4 does not appear under menuconfig, in Mediatek Ralink Mips > MT76x8 based boards, is this normal?

Should I manually compile it, bypassing menuconfig (if yes, how?).

Many thanks,

Rémy

Yeah,I did not add it to target devices so it was missing.
Download the branch now,it should be there

Hi. Let's assume I managed to compile the openwrt image (after many adventures it seems it's in good way), should I try to flash it through the web interface or should I use another method? It seems i'm not able to stop the boot process by typing on keys through the serial port (but I can get a shell during the boot of the os on the device).

Yes, you can try over WEB UI, it should work.
TP-Link edited boot menu so you need to hold t while booting to get into U-boot console, and they removed all other modes.
So if you can get into U-boot console you can test with initramfs image without permanently flashing

Ok, so I tried to flash the file I compiled on the device, but this is what I get:

Could you try to compile it and give me the file, to determine if it's my compilation at fault?
