Add support for the TP-Link EAP683-LR, an AX6000 Ceiling Mount WiFi 6
AP.
Hardware:
* SoC: MediaTek MT7896AV
* RAM: 1GiB DDR4 (Samsung K4A8G165WC-BCTD)
* Flash: 128MiB SPI-NAND (ESMT F50L1G41LB)
* Ethernet: 1x 10/100/1000/2500 Mbps PoE-PD (MaxLinear GPY211C)
* WiFi: MT7976AN/MT7976GN 2.4/5GHz 4T4R
* LEDS: 3x blue connected to a single GPIO line
* Buttons: 1x reset
* BLE/Thread/Zigbee: CC2652
Stock firmware uses a random MAC address for ethernet, label MAC for
2.4 and label MAC + for 5GHz.
Installation via bootloader:
* Solder JST??? connector on J255, alternatively solder wires on the
TP13-TP15 pads. Pinout: TP13: TX, TP14: RX, TP15: GND, TP16: VCC.
The pins for J255 are in the same order.
* Interrupt boot process by repeatedly pressing Ctrl+b during boot
* In the boot menu, select U-Boot console
* Ensure the U-Boot environment variable "tp_boot_idx" is not set:
# setenv tp_boot_idx
# saveenv
* Boot the OpenWrt initramfs:
# tftpboot openwrt-mediatek-filogic-tplink_eap683-lr-initramfs-kernel.bin
# bootm
* copy openwrt-mediatek-filogic-tplink_eap683-lr-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
to /tmp and install it using sysupgrade
Flashing via OEM firmware is currently not supported. The
tplink-safeloader utility does not recognize the OEM firmware:
DEBUG: can not find fwuphdr
Firmware image partitions:
base size name
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
To revert to the OEM firmware, you can set the U-Boot environment
variable "tp_boot_idx" to 1 via bootloader, or using fw_setenv via
OpenWrt. This should result in booting from the ubi1 partition, which
OpenWrt should not touch. Then use the web interface to upgrade
firmware: System > Firmware Update.
The OEM firmware uses 0x800000 for the runtime_backup partition size.
This causes the following warning:
mtd: partition "runtime_backup" extends beyond the end of device "nmbm_spim_nand" -- size truncated to 0x600000
This is due to the NMBM reserved blocks. Use 0x600000 in our DTS.
Thanks to init Lab's user890104, who soldered jumper wires on the TTL
pads for me so I could have serial console. My soldering skills just
aren't good enough to pull that off without risk damaging things.
