Hi Roman, thanks for your work on this - I have purchased: TP-LINK TL-WR841HP which seems to be  Realtek RTL8196D and Realtek RTL8192CE - http://wikidevi.com/wiki/TP-LINK_TL-WR841HP. So please keep up posted on your progress and if you have a donate page feel free to share the link.

TP-Link routers are crappy with stock firmware but great when flashed with openwrt firmware -  in my limited experience


We have a version of Backfire that can work on your router. Do you want to try it?

Good job, Roman

...If you want to donate to Roman. He is trying to raise 1000 USD to send his poor Indian assistant to China and Taiwan for face to face interaction with Realtek them selves.

Would you know the donate link? I have also sent you a private email if it can not be posted public.

I tried on an Edimax 3G-6200nL V2 with RTL8196C chipset and RTL8188CE for WIFI. I compiled how roman suggested in the first post. System boots up, but I have a similar problem like kwongwo. I can`t reach the deive via LAN. Pinging on the IP results mostly in "Destination Host Unreachable". Only on startup or if I restart the network a few packets get transmitted with times between 200ms and 2000ms. After that the host is unreachable. The only thing I notice is the flashing LED for the LAN port during ping and the increase of package counters in ifconfig.

I see thin one has only one ethernet port. What ip address do you have there? And which one do you ping?
It could be that you try to ping LAN while it's configured as WAN.

In very few cases I also got the skb_over_panic and tried some patches to fix this, but none of it worked, I got this message anyway.

In general rtl8196c is pretty stable. I never saw this kind of error on our routers so I'm not sure what causes it.
I don't have any other hw to test so if you can donate the hw I can try to debug the error.

Roman, Thanks for your answer!

I have this one:
http://www.edimax.com/en/produce_detail … p;pl2_id=2
If needed, you can find product images in the download section.

It has one port labelled "WAN" and one labelled "LAN". The "WAN" is wired to Port X4 (Pins 28-31). "LAN" is wired to Port X3 (Pins 23-26). IP address is 192.168.2.1 for br-lan and I ping this address (ifconfig info shown below). Network cable is connected to LAN Port.

here some network information:

Perhaps this may help to find what is wrong.
For me the response time of 0.000ms is quite dubious.

With my actual build I didn't get the panic yet. For building I started with the config available on http://downloads.nprove.in/snapshots/rt … 5-fonluci/.
Donating hardware may be an option if I get rid of it and don't get it working with the help here.

And if somebody needs a copy of the original flash content, I could upload it as well wink

Been watch this thread with interest. I have a dlink dir615 rev M with rlt8196c soc, happy to be a tester if there is a firmware I can play around with?

Could you build one for the Trendnet TEW-652BRP v3.2R?

is the any support for the D-link Dir-820L been looking around for a while now im a newb to all of this so if i can help test all i need is some instructions and ill give a shot would be more then happy to be a tester for you guys

What is the SOC, Flash, Ram? Also always make sure to make a copy of your MIB. The MIB is the portion of data in your flash that contains the hardware variables, Without that your wifi will feel like crap.

As long as we can support the SOC and the memory is adequate.

I'm very interested in the development for these SOCs, so may I ask what the current status is?

Re: "We have a version of Backfire that can work on your router. Do you want to try it?"

Will this be available somewhere? Or is the "take care of every little bit of hardware details per box" yet missing?
What can be done to help all this going forward?

Could you build one for the Trendnet TEW-652BRP v3.2R?

What is the SOC, Flash, Ram? Also always make sure to make a copy of your MIB. The MIB is the portion of data in your flash that contains the hardware variables, Without that your wifi will feel like crap.

How do I get the MIB?

Hello everyone!
I have D-Link DIR-300 rev D1 on Realtek RTL8196E and a great desire to launch openwrt can you help me ?

Hello freedom fighters!

I am using Edimax LT-6408n it's a fork of Edimax 3G-6408n made only for Polish ISP "CyfrowyPolsat". It is based on RTL8196C with 4MB flash & 16MB ram same like 3G version but also supports LTE modems. I wanted to switch to OpenWRT since I have that router. I also tried several 'stock' versions of firmware some where better some worse but all of them had the same issues from the begining with no fix at all: e.x. unnesesary resets, connections lost, settings lost.

And ever since I am watching this topic. I am a bit advanced linux user but not a developer. I want to help. I can test new kernels, give you logs, etc. i tried to compile my own firmware but no succes.

I post some code that might help

I purchased some NProve  U150M and it claims that it comes with OpenWRT OpenWrt Barrier Breaker r36713 however the opkg conf that comes with it is wrong:

 
src/gz barrier_breaker http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/realtek/packages
dest root /
dest ram /tmp
lists_dir ext /var/opkg-lists
option overlay_root /overlay

Also there's no information on how the manufacturer compiled the Barrier Breaker r36713 in it. I mean, when using make menuconfig you don't see any Realtek options yet.

Hello
I recently obtained a router Edimax BR-6478Gn, which specs are:
4MB flash
32MB RAM
rtl8198 - lan chip
rtl8192ce - radio
Is there a way to put OpenWrt on this router?

I am back from vacation. PPJ, just PM me and I will help you out personally.

The NProve is a very good hardware and they have an amazing support. Thanks Roman and ps2chiper

Any idea if this could work on an Asus RT--N12E
Bought a new router, thought it was the N12 but I got the N12E that has the RTL8196C cpu. Really wish to get OpenWRT on it. I will be more than happy trying out firmwares on it if needed!

What is the Ram and Flash size? We should be able to support you.

CPU1: Realtek RTL8196C
FLA1: 4 MB (Brand? Model?)
RAM1: 16 MB (Brand? Model?)

info from here: https://wikidevi.com/wiki/ASUS_RT-N12E
Really hope it's enough and that you could help me! God I hate the Asus GUI. Well... at least it's better than D-Links, but nothing beats the power of OpenWRT!

You can do it if you only want to use command line. There is not enough ram and flash for Luci to function properly.

Hm... Damn =/ Not even for just the UI? I won't need to install any extra than what comes with Luci normaly. The only thing I will do is open some ports and that's all.

Edit: idk about the other guis out threre (x-wrt or what the name now was) but maybe they uses less ram and flash.
