INAGAKI Hiroshi 5baaee843a ath79: add support for NEC Aterm WF1200HP2
NEC Aterm WF1200HP2 is a 2.4/5 GHz band 11ac (Wi-Fi 5) router with FE
ports, based on AR9344.

Specification:

- SoC              : Atheros AR9344
- RAM              : DDR2 128 MiB (2x ESMT M14D5121632A-2.5BG2A)
- Flash            : SPI-NOR 8 MiB (Macronix MX25L6406EM2I-12G)
- WLAN             : 2.4/5 GHz 2T2R
  - 2.4 GHz        : Atheros AR9344 (SoC)
  - 5 GHz          : Qualcomm Atheros QCA9882
- Ethernet         : 4x 10/100 Mbps
  - switch         : Atheros AR9344 (SoC)
- LEDs/Keys (GPIO) : 12x/4x
  - note           : all LEDs are controlled by ath10k chip (QCA9882)
- UART             : through-hole on PCB (J1)
  - assignment     : 3.3V, GND, NC, TX, RX from tri-angle marking
  - settings       : 9600n8 (U-Boot: 115200n8)
- Power            : 12 VDC, 0.7 A (Max. 8 W)
- Stock OS         : NetBSD based

Flash instruction using initramfs-factory.bin image (StockFW WebUI):

1. Boot WF1200HP2 with router mode
2. Access to the WebUI ("http://aterm.me/" or "http://192.168.10.1/") on
   the device and open firmware update page ("ファームウェア更新")
3. Select the OpenWrt initramfs-factory.bin image and click update
   ("更新") button
4. After updating, the device will be rebooted and booted with OpenWrt
   initramfs image
5. On the initramfs image, upload (or download) uboot.bin and
   sysupgrade.bin image to the device
6. Replace the bootloader with uboot.bin image

   mtd write <uboot.bin image> bootloader

7. Perform sysupgrade with sysupgrade.bin image

   sysupgrade <sysuppgrade image>

8. Wait ~120 seconds to complete flashing and rebooting

Flash instruction using initramfs-factory.bin image (bootloader CLI):

 1. Connect and open serial console
 2. Power on WF1200HP2 and interrupt bootloader by ESC key
 3. Login to the bootloader CLI with the 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, backup the stock bootloader and firmware if
    needed
 8. Upload (or download) uboot.bin and sysupgrade.bin image to the
    device
 9. Replace the bootloader with uboot.bin image (see above)
10. Perform sysupgrade with sysupgrade.bin image (see above)
11. Wait ~120 seconds to complete flashing and rebooting

Notes:

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

Known issues:

- All LEDs on the front side are connected to the GPIO controller on the
  ath10k chip (QCA9882) and controlled by it. The current ath10k driver
  supports only one LED as "ath10k-phyN", but using as a GPIO controller
  is not supported yet. As a result, all 12x LEDs on the front side
  cannot be controlled by users.

MAC Addresses:

LAN    : C0:25:A2:xx:xx:44 (config,  0x6 (hex))
WAN    : C0:25:A2:xx:xx:45 (config,  0xc (hex))
2.4 GHz: C0:25:A2:xx:xx:46 (config,  0x0 (hex))
5 GHz  : C0:25:A2:xx:xx:47 (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).
