Rename OpenWrt sysupgrade bin to wavlink_wl-wn551X3-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin The uppercase chars 551X3 are essential and checked by web interface. 2. Logon to webinterface 3. Go to network configuration -> mode selection 4. Choose mode "LAN bridge/access point" 5. Save configuration (maybe network reconfig needed) 6. Go to system upgrade 7. Choose local upgrade and provide renamed sysupgrade file 8. Start upgrade and wait for completion 9. Logon to OpenWrt (network config is preserved during upgrade) Boot initramfs via TFTP & console --------------------------------- 1. Connect switch to network via LAN1 or LAN2 2. Power on switch 3. Press ESC until prompt reached "MT7981>" 4. Set own IP "setenv ipaddr 192.168.x.y" 5. Set TFTP IP "setenv serverip 192.168.a.b" 6. Set memory address "setenv loadaddr 0x46000000" 7. Download image "tftpboot openwrt-mediatek-filogic-wavlink_wl-wn551x3-initramfs.itb" 8. Boot image "bootm" Notes ----- - The red/blue LEDs give a background illumination to the top of the case. The red LED is totally disabled to avoid noisy blinking. - Aside from the design and the different LED colors & placements the hardware and partitioning matches the WAVLINK WL-WN586X3 Rev B.

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
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -ato obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -ato install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfigto select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
maketo 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.
Related Repositories
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.
