Cable is OK.

Could you create a npk of the newest revision?

@hape

Any specific?

I can be this rev: r31685 or newer. I 've got a problem with boot a file *.elf (ramdisk). I dont' know why, few months ago I did it and worked fine
Yet one, does all patches for wireless, and leds are included in the newest revision in the Openwrt official trunk repo?
And, is it good tool to build openwrt npk http://code.google.com/p/npk/wiki/Build ?

Definietly no. I will post new compilation tomorrow.

Hey guys,

Give me trunk's revision number and i'll prepare new .npk compilation.

Dear ayufan
Could you please build new .npk from the latest revision of openwrt and included the vpnc packages? (Depends on: libc, libgpg-error, libgcrypt, kmod-tun, vpnc-scripts)
because I using RB751u-2hnd and already install your r31676 build from your npk file
then I try to install the vpnc by using opkg but it's can't install because it want kernel 3.3.8-1. I try to force install but the vpnc doesn't work.

Thank you

Hi!
I have one RB751G-2hnd and just curious:
Putting aside the additional software packages installable by OpenWRT - is worth to switch to OpenWRT - I mean the router with it's stock fw is ultra stable?

Tnx.

If you need features provided by OpenWrt:
- DLNA
- Torrent Client
- External disk
- Printer Sharing

Is definietely worth to switch to.

And yes, it's pretty stable.

@ayufan

Hi again!

Have tested the trunk branch on my RB751G-2HnD (ramdisk) but...
When selecting the target profile there is only ath5k profile which does not initialize WiFi.

After selecting from krenel the ath9k driver instead, WiFi chip is detected and initialized.

Can you please make the target profile for RB751G-2HnD with Atheros WiFI (ath9k) driver?

Why do you want to use latest trunk? You should stick to almost stable the attitude adjustment rc1

This one is easy
In order to contribute to community by using the latest developer branch (trunk) to build fw images I can give feedback to developers and enthusiasts like you!

Same problem here with AA...

I see the openwrt port for 751G-2HnD&751U-2HnD is not completed in build system and there is missing wiki page...
Soon I get free time I will create the wiki page.

Can you please create the ath9k profile in trunk for 751G-2HnD&751U-2HnD?

Hey!
First of all, thanks for your work on that RB75x support!

I recently got a RB751G and I'm thinking about trying your OWRT-AA build. (openwrt-12.9rc1-mipsbe.npk)

I got a question though...do you encounter the annoying TX DMA bug (ticket #9654) on those devices? (They're using a ath9k chipset after all.)

Nope. However, I used openwrt only for few days. I do prefer RouterOS because is faster than OpenWrt build.

Hi!
Is it possible to add support for Jumbo frames?
The RB751G-2HnD in general supports Jumbo Frames up to 4074 bytes http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Ma … 2.2FL2_MTU

Is it enough to replace "AR8327_MAX_FRAME_SIZE_MTU, 1518 + 8 + 2);" with "AR8327_MAX_FRAME_SIZE_MTU, 4074);" in "drivers/net/phy/ar8216.c":

    /* setup MTU */
    ar8216_rmw(priv, AR8327_REG_MAX_FRAME_SIZE,
           AR8327_MAX_FRAME_SIZE_MTU, 1518 + 8 + 2);

Can someone help.

I have used the altered netinstall by ayufan and managed to boot. I then used chillifires pre built emf file using the following command

wget2nand http://support.chillifire.net/downloads/4xx

THe router downloaded and said all was okay. Reboot.

I rebooted and now the router doesn't seem to be booting. When it turns on it flashes lights 345 and then all lights go out.

I then tried to hold RES in and use Netinstall, it seems to just keep trying to boot and all lights go out again.BTW its the  751U - "HhnD

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hello, i hope you solve your problem. For future generation i fix this problem by set manualy macaddr on wriless device ( mac that is on sticker on router) and its works

@ayufan

Just tried to reflash from stock my RB751U-2HnD (with serial:.../317) to recent trunk r37962 using method http://blog.poettner.de/2011/05/27/open … rd-411750/ and got message that there is no space for kernel?!

With AA 12.09 build http://downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_a … 71xx/nand/ - there is no problem, kernel file is smaller:

openwrt-ar71xx-nand-vmlinux.elf                    03-Apr-2013 08:16             2968592

So how to build recent trunk and get installed?
Thank you!

Edit:
Finally got my routerboard working with wireless (there were some issues with reading the eeprom on different versions).
Now apparently, downloading openWRT-binaries from downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_adjustment/12.09/ar71xx/nand and following the steps described here is all that it needs.

Pls does this ^ apply to RB751G-2HnD as well?
Can I install OpenWRT on it? Do all the important functions (Gbit wired, N wireless, LEDs, USB port,...) work?
Thanks
