Specifications: • CPU: Qualcomm IPQ8072A Quad core Cortex-A53 2.2GHz • RAM: 1024MB of DDR3 • Storage: 4GB eMMC (contains kernel and rootfs) / 8MB NOR (contains art and u-boot-env) • Ethernet: 4x 1G RJ45 ports + 2 10G ports (Aquantia AQR113C) • WLAN: 2.4GHz: Qualcomm QCN5024 4x4 (40 MHz) 802.11b/g/n/ax 1174 Mbps PHY rate 5GHz: Qualcomm QCN5054 4x4 (80 MHz) or 2x2 (160 MHz) 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax 2402 PHY rate • LEDs: 7 x GPIO-controlled dual color LEDs + 2 GPIO-controlled single color LEDs • Buttons: 1x soft reset / 1x WPS • Power: 12V DC jack A poulated serial header is onboard. RX/TX is working, bootwait is active, secure boot is not enabled. SSH can be activated in the stock firmware, hold WPS button til the second beep (yes the router has a buzzer) SSH is available on port 22200, login with user admin and password "mac address of the router". Installation Instructions: • obtain serial access (https://openwrt.org/inbox/toh/qnap/301w#serial) • stop auto boot • setenv serverip 192.168.10.1 • setenv ipaddr 192.168.10.10 • tftpboot the initramfs image (openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb) • bootm • make sure that current_entry is set to "0": "fw_printenv -n current_entry" should be print "0". If not, do "fw_setenv current_entry 0" • copy openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin to the device to /tmp folder • sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-ipq807x-generic-qnap_301w-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin this flashes openwrt to the first kernel and rootfs partition (mmcblk0p1 / mmcblk0p4) • reboot Note: this leaves the second kernel / rootfs parition untouched. So if you want to go back to stock, stop u-boot autoboot, "setenv current_entry 1" , "saveenv", "bootipq". Stock firmware should start from the second partition. Then do a firmwareupgrade in the stock gui, that should overwrite the openwrt in the first partitions Make 10G Aquantia phy's work: The aquantia phy's need a firmware to work. This can either be loaded in linux with a userspace tool or in u-boot. I was not successfull to load the firmware in linux (aq-fw-download) but luckily there is aq_load_fw available in u-boot. But first the right firmware needs to write to the 0:ETHPHYFW mtd partition (it is empty on my device) Grab the ethphy firmware image from: https://github.com/kirdesde/nbg7815_gpl/blob/master/target/linux/ipq/ipq807x_64/prebuilt_images/AQR_ethphyfw.mbn and scp that to openwrt. Check the 0:ETHPHYFW partition number: cat /proc/mtd|grep "0:ETHPHYFW", should be mtd10. Backup the 0:ETHPHYFW partition: dd if=/dev/mtd10 of=/tmp/ethphyfw.backup, scp ethphyfw.backup to a save place. Write the new firmware image to the 0:ETHPHYFW partition: "mtd erase /dev/mtd10", "mtd -n write AQR_ethphyfw.mbn /dev/mtd10". Reboot to u-boot. Check if aq_load_fw is working: "aq_load_fw 0", that checks the firmware and if successfull, loads iram and dram to one of the aquantia phy's. If that worked, add the aq_load_fw to the bootcmd: setenv bootcmd "aq_load_fw 0 && aq_load_fw 8 && bootipq" "saveenv" "reset" Board reboots and the firmware load to both phy's should start and then openwrt boots. Check if the 10G ports work. Note: lan port labeled "10G-2" is configured as WAN port as per default. All other port are in the br-lan. This can be changed in the network config.
