INAGAKI Hiroshi f76185c3f3 ath79: add support for NEC Aterm WG2200HP
NEC Aterm WG2200HP is a 2.4/5 GHz band 11ac (Wi-Fi 5) router, based on
QCA9558.

Specification:

- SoC              : Qualcomm Atheros QCA9558
- RAM              : DDR2 128 MiB (2x ESMT M14D5121632A)
- Flash            : SPI-NOR 16 MiB (Macronix MX25L12835FM2I-10G)
- WLAN             : 2.4/5 GHz
  - 2.4 GHz        : 3T3R (Qualcomm Atheros QCA9558 (SoC))
  - 5 GHz          : 4T4R (Qualcomm Atheros QCA9984)
- Ethernet         : 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps
  - switch         : Qualcomm Atheros QCA8337
- LEDs/Keys (GPIO) : 12x/4x
- UART             : through-hole on PCB
  - assignment     : 3.3V, GND, NC, TX, RX from tri-angle marking
  - settings       : 9600n8
- USB              : 1x USB 2.0 Type-A
- Power            : 12 VDC, 1.5 A (Max: 20 W)
- Stock OS         : NetBSD based

Flash instruction using initramfs-factory.bin image:

 1. Connect and open serial console
 2. Power on WG2200HP and interrupt bootloader by ESC key
 3. Login to the bootloader CLI with a password "chiron"
 4. Start TFTP server by "tftpd" command
 5. Upload initramfs-factory.bin via tftp from your computer

    example (Windows): tftp -i 192.168.0.1 PUT initramfs-factory.bin

 6. Boot initramfs image by "boot" command
 7. On the initramfs image, back up the stock bootloader and firmware if
    needed
 8. Upload (or download) uboot.bin and sysupgrade.bin image to the device
 9. Rplace the bootloader with a uboot.bin image

    mtd write <uboot.bin image> bootloader

10. Perform sysupgrade with a sysupgrade.bin image
11. Wait ~120 seconds to complete flashing

Notes:

- All LEDs are connected to the Diodes PI4IOE5V9539LE I2C Expander chip.
  (compatible with NXP PCA9539)

- The stock bootloader requires an unknown filesystem on firmware area
  in the flash. Booting of OpenWrt from that filesystem cannot be
  handled, so the bootloader needs to be replaced to mainline U-Boot
  before OpenWrt installation.

- The data length of blocks in firmware image will be checked
  (4M < threshold < 6M) on the stock WebUI of all versions, and
  initramfs-factory.bin image of OpenWrt has the larger block data for
  initramfs image. So that image cannot be applied to the stock WebUI
  at all.

MAC addresses:

LAN    : 98:F1:99:xx:xx:7C (config, 0x6  (hex))
WAN    : 98:F1:99:xx:xx:7D (config, 0xc  (hex))
2.4 GHz: 98:F1:99:xx:xx:7E (config, 0x0  (hex))
5 GHz  : 98:F1:99:xx:xx:7F (config, 0x12 (hex))

OpenWrt logo

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Sunshine!

Download

Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.

If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.

An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:

Development

To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or macOS system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.

Requirements

You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.

binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.7+ rsync subversion unzip which

Quickstart

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. Run make to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

  • LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.

  • OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.

  • OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.

  • OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
