MeshPoint.One is Wi-Fi hotspot and smart IoT gateway (based upon
Jalapeno module from 8Devices).
MeshPoint.One (https://meshpointone.com) is a unique Wi-Fi hotspot and
smart city gateway that can be installed and powered from street
lighting (even solar power in the future). MeshPoint provides up to 27
hours of interrupted Wi-Fi and IoT services from internal battery even
when external power is not available. MeshPoint.One can be used for
disaster relief efforts in order to provide instant Wi-Fi coverage that
can be easily expanded by just adding more devices that create wide area
mesh network. MeshPoint.One devices have standard Luci UI for
management.
Features:
- 1x 1Gpbs WAN
- 1x 1Gbps LAN
- POE input (eth0)
- POE output (eth1)
- Sensor for temperature, humidity and pressure (Bosch BME280)
- current, voltage and power measurement via TI INA230
- Hardware real time clock
- optional power via Li-Ion battery
- micro USB port with USB to serial chip for easy OpenWrt terminal
access
- I2C header for connecting additional sensors
Installation:
-------------
Simply flash the sysupgrade image from stock firmware.
Or use the built in Web recovery into bootloader:
Hold Reset button for 5 to 20 seconds or use UART and httpd command.
Web UI will appear on 192.168.2.100 by default.
For web recovery use the factory.ubi image.

The SPI NAND flash isn't supported at the moment.
The bootloader has to be updated before OpenWrt is installed to fix a
reboot problem. The nor-ipq40xx-single.img from
https://downloads.compex.com.sg/?dir=uploads/QSDK/QCA-Reference/WPJ428/b170123-IPQ40xx-Reference-Firmware
has to be downloaded and the transfered in u-boot via TFTP
set ipaddr 192.168.1.11
set serverip 192.168.1.10
ping ${serverip}
tftpboot 0x84000000 nor-ipq40xx-single.img
imgaddr=0x84000000 && source $imgaddr:script
The sysupgrade image can be installed directly on flash using u-boot:
sf probe
tftpboot 0x84000000 openwrt-ipq40xx-compex_wpj428-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
sf erase 0x00180000 +$filesize
sf write 0x84000000 0x00180000 $filesize
bootipq
The initramfs image can be started using
tftpboot 0x82000000 openwrt-ipq40xx-compex_wpj428-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb
set fdt_high 0x83000000
bootm 0x82000000
The used SIM card slot can be changed using
# slot 1 (also enables orange LED)
echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio3/value
# slot 2
echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio3/value
It can be checked whether a SIM card is inserted in the current slot and
the red LED is subsequently on via:
echo 2 > /sys/class/gpio/export
cat /sys/class/gpio/gpio2/value
