Topic: The support for D-LINK DIR-510L - 4000mAh, 2x USB

The content of this topic has been archived between 6 Feb 2018 and 5 May 2018. Unfortunately there are posts – most likely complete pages – missing.

Hello,

While having been browsing the web for a good mobile router (I know OpenWRT supports TP-LINK MR3040) I found one, which might be easily supported, I guess.
D-Link WiFi AC750 Portable Router and Charger (DIR-510L)

According to wikidevi, it uses the MediaTek MT7620 SoC, MT7620A for bgn, MT7620E for ac. It has 1A and 0.5A USB ports.

This downloads listing makes me feel, that OpenWRT could make it happen with 510L.

My scenario is not to get mobile with it, hence to provide seamless internet access from 3g modem, when electricity gets dead for a while. Maybe someone would like this too?

Chaos Calmer would look lovely with this being supported <3

Take care!

//edit: As for me, working bgn wifi would be sufficient in this case..

I've googled for several hours.. It seems that  D-LINK DIR510L is not supported by now sad
It looks really nice and for me, it's more suitable than kingston's mlwg2 (https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/kingston/mlwg2)

I picked up a DIR-510L because I was looking for a dual-band travel router with built in battery and external device charging capability.  The 510L seemed to fit the bill.  The stock firmware is fairly intuitive and useable, but I was hoping for OpenWRT support.  After poking around online, I really didn't find much info on third-party firmware except for a couple posts here.  I figured I would post what I have here and gauge interest for an OpenWRT port.  I have posted a few things below, but I can also create a new wiki page in the TOH.  Or maybe someone can tell me immediately if I am wasting my time and OpenWRT will never be supported because of XYZ.

I am not a developer myself, although I would love to learn.  This is my first post if you can’t tell.  I tried to gather as much info as I could on the device.  I identified the main ICs and was able to get serial port access to capture the bootloader and bootlog output.  I also poked around the stock Linux and can get whatever other info is required.  Just ask.  I have pictures too!

Thanks tmo26.  I created the device page and started posting the info I had - serial port, GPIOs, OEM flash layout, OEM bootlogs, and some OEM linux command outputs.

I am most worried about the Jboot bootloader.  I cannot find any documentation on it and it seems to lack most useful bootloader tools like TFTP.  So far I have found 3 ways to get new firmware into the device –

  1. Access the D-Link WebUI, Management->Upgrade and upload a new *.bin file.

  2. Hold the 'reset' button during power up.  The device can be accessed through the JRecovery browser @ 192.168.0.1.

  3. Connect up to the TTL Serial Port, power on router and interrupt the bootloader (ie. repeatedly tap button on keyboard).  The device can be accessed through browser @ 192.168.123.254 on the LAN port.

I believe option 1 and 2 are essentially the same.  Option 2 is if you cannot access the usual WebUI.  I flashed the stock firmware using both 1 and 2 and looked at the serial port output.  Basically, it is erasing and writing the flash to rebuild the Kernel, RootFS, MyDLink, and UI partitions.

Option 3 accesses JRecovery through the bootloader.  I flashed the stock firmware using this option and looked at the serial port output.  It is only writing to the Kernel and RootFS partitions.

I have also downloaded and compiled the DLink GPL source code. I flashed it using the recovery method above and it seemed to work (I haven’t tested all functions).  I used a HEX editor to compare the stock firmware and my compiled firmware using the Dlink source.  One thing in common is they both begin with ‘DLK6’ in ASCII.

So I am somewhat stuck at this point and not sure which way to go.  Should I attempt to generate a DIR-510L specific OpenWRT build or somehow try to package OpenWRT using the DLink source?  Neither of which I have attempted before, but it’s fun to learn something new.  smile

I have a great interest in this firmware too. The stock firmware is very limited for file sharing over USB.  It only allows you to access the files through their proprietary Shareport app which is pretty lame.  I want regular Samba/SMB NAS, and I've looked everywhere for a third party firmware to do it.

The DIR-510L is good because it is small, functions as battery, is dual band, and has USB which should be usable for NAS with OpenWrt, I think.

If anyone gets as far as developing firmware, I volunteer to help with any testing possible.

dredd321 how do you get the DIR-510L into recovery mode?  I have tried pressing a paper clip into the recessed hole for reset button and powered it up while continuing to hold it.  I've tried dozens of times, it does not seem to work.  I do not get any flashing power light like the manual says there would be when it's in recovery.  I tried it with the WPS button too, and even both at the same time.

Has anyone tried uploading any of the existing firmware from https://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_cal … ps/mt7620/ and see what happens?  Specifically https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots … pgrade.bin looks like the closest match of hardware.

When I try from the regular Web UI, it appears to upload, but the router just quickly reboots and there was no firmware applied.  It must be checking the file for something to allow it to flash the device.  I would try from recovery mode, but I can't get it into that.

ext_pa_current_setting = 1

can you find this in config and disable it, then check signal strength of 5GHz wifi and report any differences here?

I'll get the device begin next week. Have already some experience with OpenWRT and arm-devices generally. I need one travel router with full accesses to both USB-Ports (2x 3G-dongle for bonding) and battery on board. This was the only one on the market. Yes, I suppose, the JBoot  should be a Problem. But anyway, it is nothing else as an interface between hardware and linux kernel. The possible solution would be, to pack the openwrt -kernel (uImage, uInitrd  and dtb-file) and the -rootfs to jffs2 image and write to the appropriate nand-partition. So, before I'll brick my 510L, would you suggest what to take in account?

Best regards.

Hi all, I also have a DIR-510L and would be very happy to assist with any testing or information, as I would love to have some kind of port forwarding on this device. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Hi, my searching for a solution has fortuitously led me to this forum and just in time by the look of it!

I have a DIR-510L and love it.  However, the one thing missing for me is a VPN client so that I am not bound geographically when travelling.  Would it be able to include a VPN client in the new firmware?

Thanks

David

Hi!

I was researching DIR-510L and could not find any information whether it supports file sharing over SMB (Samba) or not. Could someone answer that question please?

Thank you!
Mark

Well, I got my DIR-510L yesterday and it worked for 10 minutes. I got it initially running with the OEM firmware and then tried upgrading the OEM firmware to the newest version. But sadly the flash failed(?) as no life is to be seen any more. No LEDs, no activity.

So I opened it and started looking for the serial connector to see if it is salvageable. Opening the case was rather hard and then finding the last screw proved difficult. I documented to in wiki:
https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/d-link/d-l … g_the_case

https://wiki.openwrt.org/_media/media/dlink/dir510l-screws.jpg?cache=
https://wiki.openwrt.org/_media/media/dlink/dir510l-foil-opened.jpg?cache=
I will try soldering a serial header to see if the device is still alive.

Thanks for all the Hard work, looking forward to turning this into a useful tool.

I have a DIR-510L in my hands and wonder if anyone whas able to bring OpenWRT running on this cool piece of hardware.
Even if the DIR810L physically looks a little bit different and has no battery, it seems to have exactly the same MT7620A  with the 802.11bgn integrated and the same 802.11ac chip onboard... and is supported by Barrier Breaker. The DIR-510L has 128 instead of only 64 MB of RAM and 16 instead of only 8 MB of flash. So capacity should not be the problem.
Please let me know how I can support the developement for this device.

Bumping for interest. Am hoping for any binaries!
Here is the GPL code: tsd.dlink. com.tw/downloads2008detail.asp

$ for a working version of openwrt on the dir-510L so I can use qDslrDashboard

For those with the DIR-510L, can you answer a question?

Can it provide a wireless LAN on the 5 GHz band, and connect to an existing Wi-Fi network (hotel, etc) on the 2.4 GHz radio, at the same time?  I can't get the manual because support.dlink.com is apparently down.

I'm looking for a travel router that will support having the LAN on 5 GHz, and the WAN on either wired Ethernet, or Wi-Fi at 2.4 GHz.

bump.

Hey I am glad there is ongoing effort on this device.

What are the current blockers? What do we need to add the device to the ramips devices in the sources?

Thank you

I purchased the DIR-510L to evaluate.  The stock firmware is pretty bad. Major issues include:

  • Apparently no way to disable 2.4 GHz LAN when using Wi-Fi Hotspot for WAN on 2.4 GHz.
    No settings for static DHCP to ensure LAN addresses are constant
    Very slow to use. Every step results in a reboot or delay taking 30 seconds to minutes.

I am ready to support any effort to get OpenWrt running.

What is the best approach? Start from the open source provided by D-Link, or try to get OpenWrt running?  I would prefer the latter, but don't know where to start, or how to leverage what has already been done. From reading this thread, there are only a few of us interested in this router, and none of us are experts.

I looked at DLinks open source repository.  It shows "GPL code: DIR-510L A1, A2 FW v1.07"  with date of      2016/06/30 and filename "buildroot-gcc342_120608_new.tar.gz"

This is initially encouraging, since D-Link's support site shows 1.06 is the latest firmware, and the DIR-510L also reports that 1.06 is the latest.

However examining the contents of buildroot-gcc342_120608_new.tar.gz shows over 5000 files all dated 2/21/2011. There is one file - mksqashfs_4.0 which is dated 3/29/2012.  The FOSS statement (license.txt) is dated 5/19/2016.
So I am doubtful that there is anything new in this "1.07" file, unless timestamps are intentionally removed.

Hi guys.
Dlink DWR-512 B and Dlink DWR-921 have the same bootloader, so read DWR-512 openwrt page (ttps://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/d-link/d-link_dwr-512_b) and DWR-921 forum thread (ttps://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=352067)
fidodido is working on porting openwrt on dwr-512:

The DWR 921 appears the same HW of the DWR 512 but with 4G modem.
I'm currently working on the DWR 512.
Currently I'm able to complete the boot and have the device operative.
I need to enable the 3G modem and crack the dlink header to generate a factory image.

You can try the same patch and help me for the next steps (in particular cracking the header).

Hi guys.
Currently the DWR 512 is working with LEDE ( https://downloads.lede-project.org/rele … pgrade.bin).
In the next week the final release will be available, and I will update the wiki page describing how to enable the 3G modem. I do not have plan to port the DWR 512 on openwrt (but someone else can do it using my patch from LEDE).
Currently, I'm working to enable the telephone port.
At the moment the flashing (from factory fw) procedure require the replacement of the bootloader, so is not easy and risky. I will work (in the future) to make this procedure easier.
The DWR 512 is in my opinion a quite good modem with 8M flash and 32M ram.
I also succesfully enabled a VPN using the IPSEC (with the Strongswan package).
Very usefull can be the 3G external antenna.
I buy a brocken DWR 921 and I see that the main processor MT7620 is different from the one used on the DWR 512. Nevertheless the MT7620 is supported by LEDE so should be not a big problem to port also this modem. But I do not have plan abaut.

keep informed.
Bye.

timg11 i'm with you on this one and also ready to support any effort to get OpenWrt running on DIR-510L.

I see there is a lot of information already available on the openwrt website but I wouldn't know where to start. I've put dd-wrt on my home router by following instructions, this seems more trial and error. I don't mind to, if someone can please point me in the right direction on how to start I'll give it a go.

cheers
