Xiaomi WiFi Router 3G

Maybe yours is faulty, I have an excellent 2.4 GHz range

Hello, can someone help me please?

I just wanted to flash my second Xiaomi Mi 3G router according to the above instructions. It also works so far with the installation of the Developer firmware and SSH access via Putty. After I have flashed the LEDE Firmware on the commands and then run the reboot, the router flashes red at intervals of 1 second. I have repeated this procedure several times. I'm always back to the original Developer firmware and have tried again, each with the same result!
I also tested different snapshots of the past few days.

Thanks

Problem solved!
With the snapshot from this afternoon(OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r5615-5bbd493 /), the installation has now worked without problems. It seems like the versions of the past days were broken ... but I'm not sure maybe the USB stick was to blame ...

Hmm... I think it is more a incompatibility or a faulty iPhone 7. This is my second Xiaomi I setup and both had problems with my iPhone 7 but not only with the iPhone 7.
I encountered the same problem I have at 2.4Ghz also in 5Ghz. When the reception get a little bit worse my phone stays connected but no data is transfered anymore, than I get near to the router, the reception goes to very good but no data can be transfered anymore for minutes... I have "option disassoc_low_ack 0" activated now but happend before too.

Edit:Had (KRACK) countermeasures enabled, now disabled and it seems fixed ... looking the next hours/days.

Edit2: No not fixed. Went into a place with bad connection, no data was tranferred anymore but my phone stays connected, now returned near to the router, router shows the phone as connected with signal -71db and does not get any better and no data can be transfered for like 2 minutes. Than signal returns to -51db and wifi works.

Has anyone experienced a problem with Transmission and a HDD: a torrent is 100% downloaded, but if you check the torrent, it is 97-99%? I checked torrents downloaded with a November build, there is no such problem.

This is a problem with kernel 4.9. If you go back to 4.4 everything is fine. I recently reported the issue but will probably have no traction since kernel 4.14 is coming.

Thanks to @nossiac now we have also MediaTek wireless driver for mt7603 and mt7612 :smiley:


I'm trying to compile...

If that is based on officiall drivers and works properly in LEDE that would be awesome.
That way MT7610 and MT7615 which are currently not supported by mt76 can be added since a lot of devices uses them.
Also MT7628 is really bad with mt76

Guy even has @mediatek.com email adress

yes, from mediatek, but unfortunately, I'm not the driver maintainer...
the code arch is quite out-of-date, trying to convince them to keep it up to date.
and the module is not fully tested, might be buggy.

Thanks,It is a step forward for chips that are not yet supported by mt76 or MT7628 which is terrible with mt76.
I will test it on 840N v5,that is only one with MT7628 I have.

@nossiac I disable mt76 driver using menuconfig and compiled r5389-358df5e but I have this error

mt7603

What am I doing wrong?

the module was built with linux-4.4.107 (latest snapshot from stable branch lede-17.01). should not work with your kernel.

the trunk version will be supported later. I'm trying to make an automation tool for that.

Sorry :man_facepalming:
Many thanks

@nossiac Is there any plans to make HardwareNAT support in OpenWRT/Lede for MT7621?

Hi !

I flash lede on my fresh Xiaomi router but i can't access to webui, I can ping 192.168.1.1 and I have an SSH access.
Help please

You need to install luci from SSH console, do:

opkg update
opkg install luci

Thank's but my router isn't connected to internet, how to configure it ?

Connect it from the WAN port?

If you don't have any connection, I'll try to compile one for you with luci included later in the morning...

I can ping thé router only with lan port

You need to provide the router with internet on the WAN port, and then configure it with another cable on the LAN port.
