The only ehternet port that functions on my RB493AH is the WAN port, eth0. eth1 is found but the IPC178+ switch isn't initialized so no LAN ports will ping transmit or receive. I'm using the latest SVN co of the Kamikaze trunk. Using make menuconfig I reset and then set up for the AR7100 target. It builds fine but no LAN ports.

Here's the dmesg, note the:
ag71xx_mdio: probed
eth0: Atheros AG71xx at 0xb9000000, irq 4
eth1: Atheros AG71xx at 0xba000000, irq 5
eth1: connected to PHY at 0:00 [uid=02430d80, driver=Generic PHY]
I believe the driver should equal something specifically for the IC178+ switch.

Anyone see what would cause the LAN ports to not function?

Have you built a image with the patches from http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~pathorn/ip175c/ ?

Yanira,

Thanks for the reply but Patrick's ip175c patch just enables VLAN on the 175/178 switch (his words). The problem with the patch is it's for the 2.6.26 kernel and I need the latest kernel for ath9k 80211n support.

I forgot to mention, I have the same problem with the precompiled trunk download file for the AR7100, but RouterOS works perfectly with all 9 ethernet ports working.

You have to build by yourself with the patches below:

- http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~pathorn/ … v3.1.patch (from http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~pathorn/ip175c/phylib/)
and
- http://jan.willies.info/990-phyfix.patch

After configuring the switch in /etc/config/network it works just fine. My DIR-300 also has a 175c switch.

Both of those patches are for the 2.6.26 kernel which I did have up and running but without ath9k functioning. I guess this confirms that the RB4xx routers will only function with the old kernel. I need the newer kernel for the ath9k and 11n support. Thanks for the help guys.

Hi,
Sorry, I have been busy with other projects lately. Turns out that atheros *still* has the old kernel 2.6.26.8 marked as the default in target/linux/atheros/Makefile, which would explain why I haven't noticed on my router

Anyway, I tried manually changing it to 2.6.28 and compiled with that. The only error I got was on line 1159 regarding a debug statement, but if I comment it out, it compiles.
Basically, add // to the beginning of line 1159 to comment it out.

I have not yet tested actually running the driver, but it does seem to compile except for that one thing. Is something else is tripping you up?
I'll see if I can find some time on Thursday to test reflashing with 2.6.28.

Actually, while I'm on the subject, it would be wonderful for this to be included in mainline Openwrt so that people don't have to resort to patching and compiling from source.

Hello,

Is there patches for RB493AH IC+ IP178C switch available for kernel 2.6.28 for trunk branch?

Thanks

I will try to compile the 2.6.28 kernel today, but I`m not very sure it will work. I quess we need some patch, because the hardware is so specific.

Update will be follow ..... maybe

UPDATE : still not working, grrrrr c.c

Success with the RB493AH and the IP175/178 switch driver.

phorn's switch driver and patch now work with the 2.6.28 kernel.

This is all it took (with some troubleshooting) to make the RB493 fully functional:

Fresh svn checkout
Placed phorn's patch http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~pathorn/ … 175c.patch in the top kamikaze directory
implemented the patch with this command: patch -p0 < ar71xx-ip175c.patch
Selected "Target Profile/AR7xx" and "Base system/swconfig" in "make menuconfig"
Compiled Kamikaze
Edited the /etc/config/network:

config switch eth1
option reset 1
option enable_vlan 1

config switch_vlan
option device eth1
option vlan 1
option ports "0 1 2 3 4 5 8t"

config switch_vlan
option device eth1
option vlan 2
option ports "6 7 8t"

config interface lan
option ifname "eth1.1"
option proto static
option type bridge
option ipaddr 192.168.2.1
option netmask 255.255.255.0

config interface lan2
option ifname "eth1.2"
option proto static
option ipaddr 192.168.3.1
option netmask 255.255.255.0

config interface wan
option ifname "eth0"
option proto static
option ipaddr 192.168.1.7
option netmask 255.255.255.0
option gateway 192.168.1.1
option dns 208.67.222.222

Edited /etc/config/firewall.

Hi all;

Just got 2 rb493s and I'm eager to try things out.
If the switch chip is functional for this board .. what is left to get running on it?
Curious that there is not profile setup for the routerboard 493s in the main build environment.

@robrob: Thanks for posting your config. I recently bought a
Routerboard 493AH and did not like the RouterOS at all.

Took me a while to get the UCI configuration correct, but yours was
the one that finally made my rb493 work like I want it to.

Current SVN: 21463 worked out of the box. It was simply a matter of
getting the correct VLAN configuration.

The PoE port (labeld Eth1 on the case, and eth0 in "ifconfig" output)
is the WAN. "lan" is jacks Eth2 through Eth7 (swconfig ports 0 through
5). "lan2" is jacks Eth8 and Eth9 (swconfig ports 6 and 7. And port 8
is the CPU port.

Here's my working network configuration (required no firewall changes for the "lan" network to work):

config switch eth1
    option reset 1
    option enable_vlan 1

config switch_vlan
    option device eth1
    option vlan 1
    option ports "0 1 2 3 4 5 8t"

config switch_vlan
    option device eth1
    option vlan 2
    option ports "6 7 8t"

config interface loopback
    option ifname lo
    option proto static
    option ipaddr 127.0.0.1
    option netmask 255.0.0.0

config interface wan
    option ifname eth0
    option proto dhcp

config interface lan
    option ifname "eth1.1"
    option proto static
    option type bridge
    option ipaddr 192.168.1.1
    option netmask 255.255.255.0

config interface lan2
    option ifname "eth1.2"
    option proto static
    option ipaddr 192.168.2.1
    option netmask 255.255.255.0

That's good news, maybe I'll flash my 493AH back to OpenWrt.

The discussion might have continued from here.
