Installation
------------
1. Connect to the router using ssh (user: admin, pass: web interface
password)
2. Backup:
```
cat /dev/mtd0 | gzip -1 -c > /tmp/mtd0_spi0.0.bin.gz
cat /dev/mtd1 | gzip -1 -c > /tmp/mtd1_BL2.bin.gz
cat /dev/mtd2 | gzip -1 -c > /tmp/mtd2_u-boot-env.bin.gz
cat /dev/mtd3 | gzip -1 -c > /tmp/mtd3_Factory.bin.gz
cat /dev/mtd4 | gzip -1 -c > /tmp/mtd4_FIP.bin.gz
cat /dev/mtd5 | gzip -1 -c > /tmp/mtd5_ubi.bin.gz
```
3. Download mtd backup from the /tmp dir of the router to your PC using
scp protocol
4. Upload OpenWrt 'bl31-uboot.fip', 'preloader.bin' images to the /tmp
dir of the router using scp protocol
5. Write FIP and BL2 (replace bootloader):
```
mtd write /tmp/openwrt-mediatek-filogic-netis_nx32u-bl31-uboot.fip FIP
mtd write /tmp/openwrt-mediatek-filogic-netis_nx32u-preloader.bin BL2
```
6. Place OpenWrt
'openwrt-mediatek-filogic-netis_nx32u-initramfs-recovery.itb' image on
the tftp server (IP: 192.168.1.254)
7. Erase 'ubi' partition and reboot the router:
mtd erase ubi
reboot
8. U-Boot automatically boot OpenWrt recovery image from tftp server to
the RAM
9. Upload OpenWrt 'sysupgrade.itb' image to the /tmp dir of the router
(IP: 192.168.1.1) using scp protocol
10. Connect to the router using ssh and run:
```
ubidetach -p /dev/mtd4; ubiformat /dev/mtd4 -y; ubiattach -p /dev/mtd4
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 0 -N ubootenv -s 128KiB
ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -n 1 -N ubootenv2 -s 128KiB
sysupgrade -n openwrt-mediatek-filogic-netis_nx32u-squashfs-sysupgrade.itb
```
Recovery
--------
1. Place OpenWrt
'openwrt-mediatek-filogic-netis_nx32u-initramfs-recovery.itb' image on
the tftp server (IP: 192.168.1.254)
2. Press “Reset” button and power on the router. After ~10 sec release
the button.
3. Use OpenWrt initramfs system for recovery

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.
-
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.
