TP-Link TL-MR6400 v7

For Developers
1

I found a TP-Link TL-MR6400 v7 and decided to play with it.

I followed v4 documentation and found out that I did not brick the device just yet. Firmware installed ok using tftp method, and luci responds to http.

The switch is a little bit mixed up, and the leds might need some improvements. Storage seems small, only 2 MB available to me, so not so much fun for apps.

LTE modem seems functional.

How can I contribute to get this device in better shape?

Are MAC addresses,leds and wifi powers in order?

I flashed v5 firmware now. Works much better.

Switch now fully works, Leds as well. Wifi works as well.

Is the device supposed to have just 2MB of storage, that is kind of disappointing.

free storage I assume, since the openwrt image itself is ... ~6MB ?

There is four lan ports in the switch, the last one is labeled lan/wan. When I select that port in the switch to be part of eth0.2, it becames the wan port.

Now, the wan interface selects a new random mac address every time, obviosly the hardware mac address cannot be found. I would like to get the same mac address every time from dhcp server upstream. What can be done to make the device fetch a static mac address from hardware?
