Topic: DGN2000 and OpenWRT

Hi all.
I'd like to know whether this router with integrated ADSL 2+ modem can run any openwrt system.
The only information I can find is that the DGN2000 is very close to the DG834Gv4 (https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=22078).

The DGN2000's /proc/cpuinfo says:

system type             : 96348W3
processor               : 0
cpu model               : BCM6348 V0.7
BogoMIPS                : 239.20
wait instruction        : no
microsecond timers      : yes
tlb_entries             : 32
extra interrupt vector  : yes
hardware watchpoint     : no
unaligned access                : 652443301
VCED exceptions         : not available
VCEI exceptions         : not available

Is there any further information?

Accordingly to the devs on https://dev.openwrt.org/wiki/brcm63xx ,
the DGN2000 should be supporte by OpenWRT.

Is there anyone who already tried it?

I have the same question.
Playing with the telnet session I have seen some differences between DGN2000 and DG834Gv4. For example wifi chipset is broadcomm, not Atheros.

Sorry for bumping such an old thread, but I'd like to have OpenWRT on my DGN2000 too. Hardware-wise it looks very similar to DGN834Gv4. I did a diff between the original 834v4 and 2000 GPL kernel sources and they looked mostly the same. Biggest difference was in what I believe is in the mtd stuff. I created a patch between DG834Gv4_v5-01-16_src and DGN2000_v1-1-1_src mtd driver folder, see here: https://gist.github.com/jessenic/cf6050c6db5b985b0cdf (note the DG834 directory structure in my patch differs a bit from the original)

Could someone implement/help me implement the needed changes?

Thanks to @sidepipe I now have working image tagger for the DGN2000. I flashed an image to it and now I believe that it's in a boot loop, network lights turning on and off. I will turn my Nokia CA-42 into a serial adapter tomorrow and see what I can get out with it.

The discussion might have continued from here.
