Some of the partition code is in
GPL dump/openwrt/qca/src/u-boot/include/linux
When booting from the GPL build image, does it load all of the partitions correctly, or is the dump missing that functionality as well?

If you mean the build from the GPL tarball from tp-link, I'm not sure I ever got that booting on my router.
The stock firmware only mounts ART and rootfs partitions though. (Which perhaps suggests that the MAC addresses are also present in the ART partition)
Ok, no, the stock firmware does read from default-mac, just not through the mtd layer.
One other interesting point. For the stock firmware, eth1 (LAN) and wifi1(2.4ghz) have the same MAC address. eth0 and wifi0 have unique MAC addresses.
Any reason why it would be set up this way? (And will this cause any problems if the same scheme is used for openwrt with the same mac address for lan and 2.4ghz wireless?)

Thanks, this is consistent with what I found by dumping the individual partitions (8 bytes from the start of the default-mac partition which starts at 1ef0000)

I think it might be in ART as well, since some of the MAC code I could fine in the tarball was related to ART, rather than MTD.
So, maybe it loads it from default-mac as some point (like maybe in uboot) and copies it to the ART partition?
I'm surprised the stock one doesn't mount all those partitions (of course, it would have to mount it if it just did a raw read of the flash, since it knows where the values will be stored.

I have an uptime of more than 7 days, so I definitely can't say that I have had any stability problems - it's been working really, really well.
It's a bit funny actually, I had a Linksys WRT1900AC (then an ACS due to problems with the AC) which has advertised openwrt support, but I had nothing with problems with that one, with the wifi randomly not working, reboots etc. The C2600 has been much more stable so far.
@HomerSp is WRT1900ACS full openwrt supported? Wifi ac rock stable? Does it use proprieatey drivers or openwrt ac wifi driver? What about hw nat?
Thnx.
@Heinz
Did you ever get write access to uboot via serial or still read only access?
Heinz wrote:
@arokh Thank You. Firmware run on V1.1
@bendavid. Yes i have serial. if You compile firmwaer i can test it.
The above seems to indicate you can TX to uboot, yes?
I have a C2600 which I am debating whether to keep or return. If I can get full serial access I would likely just keep it around. I see your photos of how to access serial on the C2600, but without TX I may just return this unit.
Yes i have full serial. look log in my previous post.

That's typical for most TP-links I've seen. A lot of shared MAC's. Is this the same on the stock firmware? eth0 is typically the same as the 2.4GHz address.
I am very interested to get hold of your patch for the fix to the MAC addresses. Could you post it for me to test?
Thanks again!
James
Yes, it's the stock firmware which I'm referring to that has the duplicate MAC addresses.
I'm concerned that this arrangement with duplicate mac's will cause problems for openwrt when lan and wlan are part of the same kernel bridge device.
My current devleopment branch is here.
https://github.com/bendavid/openwrt/commits/c2600tmp3
This fixes the MAC addresses for wired ethernet, but not for wifi yet.
Is that device already locked? I am playing with my mind to buy one^^
so long
I have not seen any evidence that any version of this router is locked so far, beyond the MD5 hash which is already properly handled by the tplinksafeloader.
The latest US firmware on the website is still Archer_C2600_V1_150924_US
Has anyone seen a newer US firmware or had problems flashing to openwrt from the above stock firmware?
I have arokh r48744 build and router restarts randomly when I download and upload with max speed (FTTH pppoe 200/20).
@arokh would you be so kind and make a clean build with USB Modem Support, luci, ddns, luci ssl and luci ddns?

Sometimes router restarts but sometimes write to log something that (current download circle about 200Mb/s, upload 20Mb/s):

Source is available, please help yourself 
I am a noob^^ I will use better yours
One questions, how to get rid of adblock? I can't find that package. thx!

can anyone help me with vlan tagging? It's not working like on my 3420v2 or linksys wrt1200ac 
I have one cable attached (LAN), with default vlan 1 and vlan 10. vlan1 is untagged on the switch and vlan10 is tagged.
every interface has it's own dhcp server.
so my config looks like:

config interface 'hilink'
option proto 'dhcp'
option ifname 'eth2'
option delegate '0'
option peerdns '0'
option dns '8.8.8.8'thx! the only difference is, that on lan interface it looks like this:
option ifname 'eth1'Should I rewrite it to 'eth1.1'? I am afraid that the device gets unresponsable again. It's working with 'eth1', but I don't think it's correct.
I'm not 100% sure, but as you add a tag to 6 port(cpu eth1) then eth1 change to eth1.1
