Hi

Sorry, got to my workpad too late to finally sort things out - was
extremely busy with my work last few days.
Much happy to see people are interested in getting 4716-based things
working with Openwrt.

Haven't been posting ethernet driver therefore there were no ethernet
support ;)
Had to sort few bugs out.

Sounds extremely interesting. Haven't been trying to get wifi working
with broadcom-wl.

Well, if no chance to get separate bcm4716 target with Openwrt then I
might setup own public svn for just it alone but that will be next
weekends, too much busy with work till then.

Haven't been posting full set yet till now. Was not ready with fully
testing things out.
Here are 3 .tar.bz2'ed patches to get ASUS RT-N16 (and possibly others
4716-based routers) boot with Openwrt trunk, 2.6.37 kernel:
http://www.znau.edu.ua/temp/asus-rt-n16/2011-02-12T00-10/2011-02-12T00-10_openwrt4716.tar.bz2

Individual patches and md5 signs you can get here:
http://www.znau.edu.ua/temp/asus-rt-n16/2011-02-12T00-10/

Here is bootable image built with Openwrt trunk #25469:
http://www.znau.edu.ua/temp/asus-rt-n16/2011-02-12T00-10/openwrt-brcm4716-squashfs.trx

As I've reported before still no wifi. You will get just usb and
ethernet working.

And PLEASE, whoever want to test this out, FIRST READ
openwrt-bcm4716-README.txt which is supplied with .tar.bz2 or get it
from http://www.znau.edu.ua/temp/asus-rt-n16/openwrt-bcm4716-
README.txt.
Do that prior flashing your box and even prior planning on such.
Stuff posted is working clean on several N16's I've got, most likely
will work the same on others non ASUS but bcm4716-based embeddables,
might work on 47162 ones too (never heard about such tho).
But until it is tested on non-ASUS hardware please DONT EVER try it out
if you dont know how to debrick your box for sure.

Would be much appreciated if you let me know whether you got your
4716'box working with this or not.

Have nice day,
George
