Hi, you should build it from source code, so that it can be without the ssh keys.
it is easy to build it base on this config: https://github.com/ptpt52/com.ptpt52.openwrt/blob/master/rom/lede/config.ramips-mt7620nand-nosymbol
make menuconfig and disable all packages in ptpt52 feeds
It's OK......
Can anybody install luci-proto-wireguard on latest lede snapshot? Any time i have got unsatisfied dependencies on kernel version.
opkg update
opkg list-upgradable | cut -f 1 -d ’ ’ | xargs opkg upgrade
No luck. I still have unsatisfied dependencies - specific kernel version comimit - at this moment i have 4.14
I have a working ptp52 firmware and it's all fine.
I'd like to see/download the official image from the OpenWRT website in Development.
Is there a plan when Xiaomi MIR3 platform will be added to the Development Snapshot builds?
That way we can have regular updates.

hey. flashed your firmware with the instructions from the pastebin and am now running
NATCAP 3.0.0_build201802180700 Aardvark r6212-8bd6c71
i then downloaded natcap-4.0-b201805301526-ramips-mt7620nand-xiaomi_miwifi-r3-squashfs-sysupgrade.tar from https://dev.ptpt52.com/rom/ but get this error when I try to flash it with the webui:
The uploaded image file does not contain a supported format. Make sure that you choose the generic image format for your platform.
Did I use the wrong file? how can I get this to update to something newer?
try upgrade via ssh
sysupgrade -F /tmp/xxxxxxxx.bin
I saw a ***-breed-factory.bin file for mir3 in ur site. But there is no official breed support for mir3 in here https://breed.hackpascal.net/ . Do u have a custom breed file that support the mir3? can u share it @ptpt52
typo, it is xxx.tar
no, I don’t have any breed file
and it is clear that no breed for mir3 for now.
@ptpt52 thank you very much. it worked!!!
in completely other news: I bought this router because I wanted to experiment with mesh networks and I now saw that there is no "software" menu in the natcap build. Is there a way to build you natcap build but with additional software (kmod-batman-adv, batctl)? Or maybe just those two packages so that i can install them on your build?
then you have to build it from source and choose what you need
Has anyone had a stable experience with recent builds?
Man I've been gone for so long. Got assigned to a case and finally closed it and can get back to this after forever.
So I read most of this already. Awesome that we have firmware to get it working. I have yet to flash over ptpt52's build for a reason.
What exactly is missing from it and the usual OpenWRT builds. Like, does luci have the same tabs as a regular flashed openwrt router?
Is it missing something?
How would I go about custom compiling it for this router chip-set if I wanted the native openwrt source with all the fixes to make this a stable router?
Sorry for all the questions, everyone. I'm super glad that this project has not been abandoned.

Alright.
I did "git clone https://github.com/ptpt52/openwrt-openwrt.git"
and did "openwrt-openwrt/scripts/feeds update -a"
then "openwrt-openwrt/scripts/feeds install -a"
with no issues or errors.
Then I did "make menuconfig"
I followed the instructions from https://github.com/ptpt52/lede-source/issues/1
and couldn't find where to disable KERNEL_KALLSYMS in there...
Everything else I could set except "disable KERNEL_KALLSYMS"
I'm compiling it now, though. Not sure if I should flash it over yet until I get some kind of confirmation.

Did anyone try installing packetfence hostepad on the xiaomi router 3?
I've never used lede before but followed the various howtos to install @ptp52's natcap and it went very smoothly, thanks for all your efforts!
I'm using the Mi3 to extend the wifi reach of my Fritzbox (on the other side of the house) using LAN to link them (rather than using wifi extending); I modified the bridge config as per the LEDE wiki to add the WAN port to the main lan bridge and that also works so the unit now effectlvely has 3 lan ports. All very smooth and far easier than I expected.
Only thing I've found that's odd so far is that if I run a test to speedtest.net the download gives me about 13Mbps; if I then connect to my main router I get (as I would normally expect) about 70Mbps. Then reconnecting to the mi3 also gives me 70Mbps.
This has been repeatable - as if the connection goes off after a while, reconnecting seems to spring it back into life.
Is this something other people have seen?
Ta!
