The Sitecom X8 AC1750 WLR-8100 has: 16MB Flash 128MB RAM 2USB (1xUSB3) onboard serial pins (no soldering) 802.11ac QCA9880 hw ver2 (ath10k) AR8337N switch internal antennas (looks like u.fl)
And its white. This patch consists of enabling/modifying: - usb3 - new switch 8337 that is for now handled like 8327 and the "usual" hardware patches similar to reference board AP136-010 There is no GPL package provided by Sitecom on their website: Stock firmware uses Linux 2.6.31, u-boot and other programs. Password to enter stock firmware unknown. what works: - ath10k with 6mbit in an mode seems to work - ath9k seems to work - switch seems to work (without AR8337 only WAN port works as LAN, in uboot all ports work) Issues: - ETH/WAN/WLAN MAC missing - could be taken from u-boot-env or nvram like partition - ART/CAL offsets [*] - strange stock firmware partitioning partly lost - AR8337N support is relying on similarities to AR8327 (thx vubvub) - USB3 has disabled quirks removed because of build issues [**] - USB3 port fails when mounting (see forum) [*] firmware dumps of ver1 in forum: https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=45802 for research of offsets, magic or other strange stuff ("SENAO" string at some offset) possible ART: 0f92000: 0202 0002 6f12 3456 2441 7468 6572 6f73 ....o.4V$Atheros 0ff1000: 0202 0002 6f12 3456 2441 7468 6572 6f73 ....o.4V$Atheros bootlogs are in wiki [**] disable common usb quirks: if i keep that file i get compile error: ERROR: "usb_disable_xhci_ports" [drivers/usb/host/xhci-hcd.ko] undefined! however shouldnt CONFIG-PCI build be enabled and the def. therefore be included? Bonus: According to some remaining (?) defaults on u-boot variables the router might be similar to a (globally availably?) Zyxel NBG6716 or a japanese IO-Data router. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
