Have you really understood that after flashing, you won't have neither wired or wireless network? If you do REALLY understand it, I can provide you a bin...

By the way, I didn't had time to play with the box in recent days but will try to put the "original" binary drivers into a kamikaze 2.4 and let you know. I know this is far from ideal, but still better than using stock firmware...

I have some patches ready for 2.6 that add the PHY id to tg3 and correct the ssb-gige mac-address code that is wrong. I've not been able to get a packet out of the box, broadcast packets are seen in a tcpdump but nothing will come out of it...

I don't know another way to find the last changes in the drivers (bcm47xx) than reverse-engineering, but this is not something I'm familiar with.

Happy hacking

Any success putting binary drivers into kamikaze 2.4..?

Hi,

Not for the moment... I had to fulfill my obligations first as a father and also as a damn system administrator...

I hope I'll be able to spend some time on it this week.

Bye

Guys,

I'm having problems with my Serial cable add-on

After fixing the wires to my audio jack I didn't see anything with Hyperterminal.

I was using 9600 8-N-1 for settings with no flow control.

Am-I supposed to see any console information from the Linksys software?

I was expecting to have some console access before uploading the OpenWRT firmware.

Just looking to test the serial cable before so I can recover after.

I'm using the TTL-232R-3V3-AJ USB to Serial converter.

Thansk,

/Carl

Hi,

Default serial settings are 115000 8N1... Not standard, but  better interactivity...

Happy hacking

Should you see something from the Linksys software with the Serial cable?
Thansk,
/Carl

Yes, definitely...

You will first see the CFE that enables you to interrupt boot and for example tftp a new firmware, and then you will see a "standard" linux 2.4 booting just before Linksys init (that in my case included many errors )

I will test again with settings at 115000 and will hope that was my problem...

Either that or I fried the port although my multimeter still show 3.13V on it...

Thanks,

/Carl

My serial port works!!!

I can now start loading firmware...

Anyone has code to test?

Greetings everyone,

Does anyone know if it will be possible to add both a serial port and an additional USB port (or card reader)?  I'm interested in adding more storage to be used as part of the router's file system.  I know I could attach a USB hub to the existing USB port, but I'm afraid it might impact the read/write performance of the attached network storage disk.  If anyone has any input I'd appreciate a response (the folks over at DD-WRT seem to be ignoring me... I've since stopped participating in their forums because of this, not to mention the fact I've recently learned of the alleged GPL violations...). 

I'm new to the flashing of firmware scene, so please be patient with me.  I am really looking forward to the experience, and perhaps, one day, helping with the development/testing.

Thanks

@gosselic: Congrats on getting the serial port working!...I'm jealous  :P

Don't think that anybody got so far on this PCB, but it might be possible. However adding a hard drive to the USB port should give you enough storage... If only we found a way to get that damn ethernet working...

Thanks for the quick reply sentenza.  I already have a hard drive attached through the USB for NAS and FTP, I just thought using a directory in this drive as part of the Router's file system (running programs from it) might affect the performance of the disk.

I really wish I knew more to be able to help get this router working with the firmware.  Any suggested websites where I can learn a thing or two?

I think in the mean time I will try to compile the Linksys source code with a different FTP program (or at least with a modified config to achieve better logging).  Of course, this will be after I manage to add a serial port: I don't know enough about compiling software to even think of attempting it without a serial port.

The WRTSL54GS already had the holes & solder-points for a 2-port USB.  It was an easy mod just desolder a 2-port stacked USB module off an old PC motherboard, and substitute it for the single-port module on the SL unit.  It was trivial I did it to 2 units no problems.

I see no such evidence of an easy addition on the WRT610N.

I'm not sure what performance problem with using a hub would be?  You'll run out of CPU long before you overtax a USB2.0 port.

Adding a serial port using the "stereo jack" method outlined several pages back is fairly easy.  Only 3 wires to solder, and fit a stereo jack, and a very portable USB-serial cable with the smart bits.  Highly recommended.

I offered to donate a WRT610n still haven't heard back from a specific developer willing to accept shipment and work on the problems.   I will ping them again.  I have been off on holiday the last week myself and it will take me a few days digging out from work obligations before I can return to my hobby work on this router.  I mainly intend to clean up the Wiki page and document GPIO and other nitpicky items.  I'm not really developer so I can't help with fixing wireless drivers etc.

I also donated 20 Euro to B43 project last week to assist them in their BroadCom open-source driver work.

Hi Vincent,

Hi also donated 50 euros to b43 team but did not get any feedback... I've try to fight with tg3 in 2.6 but without successful results, so I'm actually trying to integrate modules shipped by Linksys in 2.4 kamikaze built, but did not manage to built it until now...

I'm sick at home this week, so perhaps I'll manage to spend more time on it...

@Vincent

Thanks for the info.

I have a few questions for you.  The instructions you provided are as clear as day, however, I'm unsure of the exact parts I need to order.  I've been looking around for the correct cable, and have found FTDI.com.  They have two USB to audio jack cables, one is a 5v, and the other is a 3.3v.  I don't know which one to get (I'll provide links).  I'm also having a little difficulty locating a good 3.5mm jack; all of the one's I've found appear to be quite bulky as compared to the one in your pictures (on the side that will be inside the router), or have a plastic housing.  I've considered ripping apart an older piece of equipment that has a 3.5mm stereo jack, but don't know exactly how I would go about fixing it to the router to prevent it from falling inside the router when I try to plug it in.

I'm also becoming a little skeptical of what I'm going to be able to do once it's installed.  As of right now, I see myself installing it, establishing a TTL session, and then staring at the screen wondering what to do next.  :P  Although, I still think I'm going to go through with it.  At most I MIGHT be able to recompile the Linksys source with another FTP server, but that will probably take months.  Hopefully, that will be a step in the right direction for learning something useful to be able to contribute in some way to these forums (or this project).  I'm afraid that what is required to get OPENWRT working on this router is WAY over my head for the time being.  Other than a few shell scripts and some extremely basic HTML tagging, I've got no experience with programming (if those even count).

Anyway, here's the links for the cables I'm looking at:

3.3v: (TTL-232R-3V3-AJ )- http://apple.clickandbuild.com/cnb/shop … egoryID=47
5v: (TTL-232R-AJ)- http://apple.clickandbuild.com/cnb/shop … egoryID=47

I can't find any other seller for these cables, and shipping it overseas won’t help the cost.  Are either of these the same cable you are using?  If so, do you know if their drivers work for XP 64?  I’m not seeing FT232RQ listed anywhere in the supported devices column, only FT232R is listed…

I really appreciate the fact that you all have even acknowledged my existence, much less engaged in a conversation with me.  It is a nice and fuzzy feeling, unlike my experience at another "open source" firmware forum...  :P    Thanks.

5arge,
I ordered TTL-232R-3V3-AJ from the same online retailer and it took about a week to get it to Canada.

The cable was easily recognised by XP no other issues then normal USB to serial converters was encountered.

hi everyone,
i am following this thread (and the one in dd-wrt forum) for a while and decided to build the linksys firmware ... maybe get an ssh/telnet daemon in there to figure out why the samba server doesnt really work ...

so i got the wrt610n source package (wrt610n_v1.00.00.018_us) ... oh ... no tool chain.
luckily looking through the scripts i found some references to the wrt350n.
hmm ... one of the wrt350n source packages (wrt350n_v1.03.7_us) is about 700mb ... and voila ... it includes the toolchain.
after setting some paths it starts to compile a while ... but then, i suppose it s the linker ...

wrt350n_v1.03.7_us/tools/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-linux/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/mipsel-linux/3.2.3/../../../../mipsel-linux/lib/crt1.o: In function `__start':
wrt350n_v1.03.7_us/tools/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-linux/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/mipsel-linux/3.2.3/../../../../mipsel-linux/lib/crt1.o(.text+0x18): undefined reference to `main'

and a lot more undefined references to various functions calls ...

has anyone been more succesful?

Thanks

You want the 3.3volt cable.  See the WRTSL54GS hardware Wiki page.

http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Har … ef59391468

The idea came from JimWright and netprince in some other forum thread.

I ordered a half-dozen 3V3 cables.  I keep one in my laptop bag.   I do some WISP work and really critical routers in the field I might leave the cable with the router in case someone else needs to connect up and debug some problem.

I don't recall any trouble with the driver I think Windows found it?  But it's been a while since I connected a cable to a new laptop.  I don't have any 64-bit Windows boxes so I have no idea what problems might present there.   When I get home I will dig in my drivers folder and see if there is an INFO file or something with version info or other data.

When you hook console up to stock router, you do get a ROOT SHELL if you hit enter, so you can poke around in Linksys functional firmware and work out a great many things about the hardware from there.  We explored the SL in much detail, I'd like to see the WRT610n Wiki page with that much information in perhaps 2 months.

Awesome! That webpage contained all the information I needed.

I've ordered the cable, and Fry's has the plug in stock at a local store.

If it doesn't work under XP 64, I can always use an XP 32 virtual machine.  This has worked with my other standard USB to Serial cable, although it was quite unreliable...something's better than nothing though right?

Thanks again.

Regarding the driver for the serial cable:

Windows says it's FTDI 5/19/2006 version 2.0.0.0

And it's digitally signed Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility

The chip used has been in dozens of USB-serial devices for years.

@ Sentenza:  I assume you were using the BCM57XX Linux tg3 driver released on 9/12/08 when trying to compile.  The readme says that they are compatible with the 2.6 kernel...  You know much more about this stuff than I do, so I'm sure this is the release you used, but I'd kick myself if I didn't say anything and an older driver versions were the cause of the compiling problems.  Here's a link to the version I'm referencing  (thanks to rbolen70 over at DD-WRT): http://www.broadcom.com/docs/driver_dow … -3.92e.zip

@ Vincent:  Great.  Compatibility doesn't look like it should be a problem then.

Trivia:

With both radios turned off the WRT610n uses 4 Watts power
Measured with a Watts Up?

Heh, interesting.  I'd never heard of Watts Up?  They look like pretty neat tools.  I might need one once I graduate...help prove one of the benefits of server consolidation  :P

The new one is neat...built in web server.  Thats fancy!

Hi 5arge,

I've use the tg3 driver present in kernel, not the broadcom one, but I think they are really close. I'll give it a try, but I don't have much hope in it, as there is no reference at all to the silicon backplane functions, however the chip is connected via SSB...

What would be great is to manage to get a more recent 2.6 as the current profile use a 2.6.25, so perhaps more recent versions would give better results...

Anyway, thanks for the info...

I still did not manage to get a 2.4 profile to build... but keep trying...

WRT610n will be in hands of one of the developers in about a week I think.
