BACKUP YOUR STOCK FIRMWARE:
- Put openwrt-*-initramfs-uImage.itb to your
TFTP server and rename it to initramfs.bin
- Enable serial console and enter to u-boot cli
and exec these commands:
```
tftpboot <your_tftp_server_ip>:initramfs.bin
bootm
```
- Once boot completed and you get the openwrt shell
execute below commands:
```
device=ax830
mkdir -p /tmp/fw_backup; cd /tmp/fw_backup
rootfs=$(cat /proc/mtd | grep \"rootfs\" | cut -d: -f1)
rootfs_1=$(cat /proc/mtd | grep \"rootfs_1\" | cut -d: -f1)
dd if=/dev/${rootfs} of=rootfs_${rootfs} bs=1M
dd if=/dev/${rootfs_1} of=rootfs_1_${rootfs_1} bs=1M
cp /sys/firmware/fdt fdt.dtb
md5sum * > md5sum
tar -cvzf /tmp/${device}.tar.gz .
sum=$(md5sum /tmp/${device}.tar.gz | cut -d' ' -f1)
mv /tmp/${device}.tar.gz /tmp/${device}_${sum}.tar.gz
echo "stock fw backup saved to: /tmp/${device}_${sum}.tar.gz"
```
- Upload/save your backup to a safe place.
STOCK FIRMWARE RECOVERY:
- Boot initramfs image
- Upload your backed-up stock fw tarball to the device
using scp or download it from the device using wget.
- Enter device ssh cli or tty and exec:
```
cd /tmp && wget <your_web_server_ip>/${stock_fw_backup}.tar.gz`
tar -xpzf ${stock_fw_backup}.tar.gz
rootfs=$(cat /proc/mtd | grep \"rootfs\" | cut -d: -f1)
rootfs_1=$(cat /proc/mtd | grep \"rootfs_1\" | cut -d: -f1)
ubiformat /dev/${rootfs} -y -f /tmp/rootfs_${rootfs}
ubiformat /dev/${rootfs_1} -y -f /tmp/rootfs_1_${rootfs_1}
reboot
```
INSTALLATION:
1. initramfs method
- Put openwrt-*-initramfs-uImage.itb to your
TFTP server and rename it to initramfs.bin
- Enable serial console and enter to u-boot cli
and exec these commands:
```
tftpboot <your_tftp_server_ip>:initramfs.bin
bootm
```
- Once boot completed and you get the openwrt shell
execute below commands:
```
cd /tmp && wget <your_web_server_ip>/factory.ubi`
export rootfs=$(cat /proc/mtd | grep rootfs | cut -d: -f1)
export rootfs_1=$(cat /proc/mtd | grep rootfs_1 | cut -d: -f1)
ubiformat /dev/${rootfs} -y -f factory.ubi
ubiformat /dev/${rootfs_1} -y -f factory.ubi
reboot
```
2. u-boot factory.ubi image method
- Put factory.ubi to your TFTP server and
enter u-boot cli and exec these commands:
```
tftpboot <your_tftp_server_ip>:factory.ubi
#After downloading is finished:
flash rootfs
flash rootfs_1
reset
```

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.
