How many LED have R3Gv2? I'm trying do disable LEDs, and there are only status and 2 mt76-phy LEDs. Status works well, but where is WAN led?
Hi,
I've tried several times to upload openwrt snapshot but the router (M4A) allways bricks. I've used several firmwares (included the ones sugested by ZORRO) This is what I've done last time:
root@XiaoQiang:/tmp# curl http://www.mediafire.com/file/0qetz7rm8n9hr04/openwrt-ramips-mt7621-xiaomi_mi
r3g-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin/file --output firmware.bin

The router is like trying to reboot repeatedly... and the ethernet link of the computer going on and off. Any suggestions? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.

This is the reason why you did not open the tftp server on the windows system. The control panel --- program --- start or close the windows function-TFTP check, enter cmd, enter tftp, it's ok
you give it wrong download link to the firmware file ...you should give it direct link to firmware file ...
for example :

That rom doesn't seem to work for my R3Gv2, I have managed to send the test.bin file that it's requesting but it doesn't seem to be flashing it and I think it's because I'm not sending the right rom, I also tried with the OpenWrt snapshot and the R3Gv1 stock rom but none of them seem to work.
Do you know where can I find the original stock rom for the R3Gv2?
this is chinese rom for mi4a gigabit and tested by me and others it's 100% working ..if you are looking for english firmware you can't find it anywhere .
maybe you did something wrong try again and also turn off your windows firewall.

you're asking for a diffrent device a forum for mi 4a
i think this is the firmware you want
http://bigota.miwifi.com/xiaoqiang/rom/r3g/miwifi_r3g_firmware_9be74_2.28.44.bin
i Just want to clarify this is the stock from for r3g and not for mi ra gigabit
if that's not the right one check this site and see if you can find your router: http://www1.miwifi.com/miwifi_download.html
WARNING ==> when you want to flash below custom image don't forget to check the download link and sha256 or you will brick your router

Hello Guys,
I'm still with Snapshot v19, because the v20 is not booting (problem with partition as i can undestand).
I downloaded the build posted from Zorro, but still no luck (even with official build i'm experiencing similar issues).

Thanks for support! 
After a short research it's not looking good 
It looks that there is no factory image available for R3Gv2. I found some info on Russian 4pda forum that they changing bootloader to one from R4A giga to use it's firmware in case of recovery. They posted a bin of 2.28.8 Chinese fw for it but I don't know that it will flash in recovery. PM me if you want that file - I just registered there.

Did anyone try out the snapshot from April 12? Does it work?
Hello ave,
I tried yesterday but is giving me more problems than the build from April 11.
Still figuring out about strange problems with my device
I'm guessing its not controled by the software, im saying this because when i bricked my software the WAN light still worked so i might be direct from the NIC, a work around could be to not use the WAN port and set one of your LAN ports as WAN in openwrt
