Topic: New Broadcom BCM63xx codebase with GPL'd Ethernet and USB support

The content of this topic has been archived between 8 Feb 2018 and 7 May 2018. Unfortunately there are posts – most likely complete pages – missing.

With the help of DaniTool've gotten to work properly OpenWrt on a Netgear DG834G v4.

However, I have not had luck with the wifi interface.

When booting the system displays the following message:

[0.212000] ssb: WARNING: Using fallback SPROM failed (err -2)
[0.220000] ssb: WARNING: Invalid SPROM CRC (corrupt SPROM)
[0.224000] ssb: Unsupported SPROM review 0 detected. Will extract v1
[0.256000] ssb: Sonics Silicon Backplane found on PCI device 0000:00:01.0

PS: The mac address indicated on the wireless interface is not correct, I have only 00:00:00:00:00. If I put a valid MAC address, I get the following error message:

Radio0 PHY device for wifi not fount

Ratul011, thank for you help me.

How I can fix the following errors?:

As I can post to the wiki steps to put openwrt on the DG834G v4?

Thanks!!!

The wifi still is not working on those Netgears ? Seems like same problems I was having as well.

Thank bulanula., It seems the problem is to get the MAC address of the wifi card.

Anyone else had this problem?

You can try to add this option to the /etc/config/wireless

option phy      phy0

and putting also a valid mac address, or commenting the existing mac address. But I suspect it neither won't work.

Thanks to the invaluable help of danitool I got my NetGear DG834G v4 to work properly. These are the steps I have taken:

1) Configuration of LEDs:

GPIO 0 => Led green power            0= on led green "Power"    1= off led green "Power"
GPIO 1 => Led red power                    0= on led red "Power",            1= off led red "Power"
GPIO 2 => Led DSL                        0= on led "DSL",              1= off led "DSL"

Good to know. On the DG834GT I think you have to install the ath9k package or something for the wireless to work.

It has a separate Atheros wifi mini pci card inside not the integrated BCM chip etc.

Well good to see that your PCB is rusty as mine on the DG834GT is.

Also the DG834G has the wireless chip integrated not a separate card etc. like my DG834GT

Thank you all.

Is, also ADSL connection working?

Can you please upload firmware .bin file?

Thanks in advance.

bcm63xx routers haven't their adsl working in openwrt, there aren't drivers for the adsl and probably never will.

If you want ADSL working and customizable firmware for DG834GT I suggest you try DGTeam firmware.

I don't need ADSL so I am using OpenWRT on mine.

AFAIK DGTeam is still blatently violating the GPL and asking for money to download their binaries. Steve-o set up a sourceforge page without source code; not exactly confidence-inspiring. I'd love to be proven wrong...

Really ? LOL. Last time I looked anyone could download the source code and the binary FW. Maybe they have changed since then to the dark side ...

Hi all,
on the router DG834GT with firmware openwrt trunk 29824, the reset button on the back is not trapped when pressed ;to do a reset of the configuration, how can I enable it?
Is there a guide?

Hi all,
I solved in this way :

As for the DG834G.v4 add in file trunk/build_dir/linux-brcm63xx/linux-2.6.39.4/arch/mips/bcm63xx/boards/board_bcm963xx.c  (only section in red)

        },


        .buttons = {
                {
                        .desc           = "reset",
                        .gpio           = 6,
                        .active_low     = 1,
                        .type           = EV_KEY,
                        .code           = KEY_RESTART,
                        .threshold      = 3,
                },
        },

};

and from wiki : http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/hardware.button

add in file /etc/config/system :

config 'button'
        option 'button' 'reset'
        option 'action' 'released'
        option 'handler' 'firstboot && reboot'
        option 'min' '5'
        option 'max' '30'

create folder  :

mkdir -p /etc/hotplug.d/button

create file /etc/hotplug.d/button/buttons

#!/bin/sh

logger $BUTTON
logger $ACTION

create file /etc/hotplug.d/button/00-button

. /etc/functions.sh
do_button () {
        local button
        local action
        local handler
        local min
        local max

        config_get button $1 button
        config_get action $1 action
        config_get handler $1 handler
        config_get min $1 min
        config_get max $1 max

        [ "$ACTION" = "$action" -a "$BUTTON" = "$button" -a -n "$handler" ] && {
                [ -z "$min" -o -z "$max" ] && eval $handler
                [ -n "$min" -a -n "$max" ] && {
                        [ $min -le $SEEN -a $max -ge $SEEN ] && eval $handler
                }
        }
}

config_load system
config_foreach do_button button

Now, reset button works and reset configuration to default.

Are you sure? I'm a linux-noob, also a OpenWrt--noob, but i'm interested to use OpenWRT on a Speedport W500V which also uses BCM63xx-chipset. Because of this i already read some threads and found answers that dsl-modem of Speedport W500V is working:

https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php … 996#p86996

Maybe i didn't understand it correctly or this is only for the W500V and not for all BCM63xx-routers?!

Yeah. Noticed that too. Thanks for the fix !

Can we somehow modify the firmware so future images work out of the box on the DG834GT ?

Hi,
for DG834GT I opened a ticket number 10854.
I am waiting for resolution of ticket.

Bye
MisteroX

Hello, Could someone please post a working CFE for Thomson TG585v7. Its driving me nuts that I cant find it and the original one is locked up so you can't load Openwrt. I did try several ones for BCM6338 without success. Maybe I am just using the jtag wrong. I have a DLC5 jtag cable and currently using TJTAG v3.0.1 since urjtag doesn't have a driver patch for this particular flash chip. Thank you guys in advance.

I think I figured out a problem. My original cfe is byte swapped and the replacements are not byte swapped. I guess I will need to learn how to fix it my self unless you guys can point me to a tutorial.

I think there are several ways for flashing the bootloader and/or byte swap. This is one I've succesfully tested:
http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/inventel/dv4210#debrick

BTW UrJtag in the latest trunk works with the bcm6348 chipsets.

I already got urjtag working with bcm6338, but its missing the flash patch for my spansion flash chip. So its incompatible except for reading. It wont allow me to write. tjtag seems to work fine since I can backup my flash and write my flash without incident. The only problem I have is I can not find a CFE files that will boot on this router. Or I need help with Tjtag to write the CFE if I am making a mistake.

This is my current command for Tjtag
./rtjtag64 -flash:cfe /bypass /fc:85 /silent
Am I missing something?

Well if you flash your CFE and then making a backup both files are identical then you are flashing correctly. I'm not sure about swapping with Tjtag since I've never used it.

Probably the CFE isn't compatible with your router. For being compatible at least RAM and flash should be the same size if you use a CFE from another bcm6338 router. And of course a CFE from a bcm6348 router won't be compatible with yours.

Well I was able to solve my own problem. I found that guys website with the cfe builders, and used it. I had to build pylzma and I am including it for 64 bit linux in the folder. So this should help out anyone else in my position.

Yeah. I tried failsafe mode on this router and it did not work because it seems none of the buttons are configured.

Could be costly if you mess up network settings and don't have serial access to bootloader ( CFE ), which I don't, currently.

Thank you and let us know when it is resolved and how we can apply it / use it ( maybe it already is built into the next images that will be released after Backfire ? ) !
