I'm working on support for the new version of the WA901ND. TP-link
changed nearly every component from version 1.
32 megs of ram
proc: AR9132-BC1E
ethernet chip: RTL8201CP
Wireless AR5416
Flash: 4MB
I've gotten everything working but the Ethernet port. It's a RTL8201CP
chip that drives the port. In the stock firmware, obviously, it comes
right up. However, in the U-Boot bootloader and in the Openwrt image I
transfered across, I can't get the ethernet port to power up. It won't
light the link light on a switch, and it won't transfer any data. It
does show up in ifconfig, though.

I've started working from the TL-WR841ND-V3 binary, built from latest
trunk. This router used the same proc and similar hardware. I had to
transfer it across the serial line using ymodem. I've managed to bring
up the wireless interface and dump the stock rom (/dev/mtd0-4) to a
laptop. Sometime tomorrow I'll get these files online.

Any ideas on the lan port? I'm assuming it's a lack of the proper
driver. Any help or hints are appreciated.

Cheers,
Jonathan Bennett
