Buffalo WXR-2533DHP is a 2.4/5 GHz band 11ac router, based on Qualcomm
IPQ8064.
The U-Boot on WXR-2533DHP employs a complicated dual firmware
protection scheme against corruptions of the kernel and rootfs
images. See the notes in buffalo.sh for details.
specifications:
- Qualcomm IPQ8064 (384 - 1,400 MHz, 2C2T)
- 512 MB of RAM (DDR3)
- 256 MB of Flash (NAND)
- 4T4R 2.4/5 GHz Wlan (QCA9980)
- 5x 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet
- 10x LEDs, 8x keys (6x buttons, 2x slide-switches)
- 2x USB 3.0 Type-A
- 12VDC/4A AC Adapter
- UART through-hole on PCB
- J3: Vcc, GND, TX, RX from USB port side
- 115200n8
Boot instructions for the initramfs image:
1. Prepare the TFTP server with the initramfs image renamed to
"wxr2300dhp-initramfs.uImage" and IP address "192.168.11.10".
2. Press the "AOSS" button while powering on the WXR-2533DHP.
3. Wait until the "Wireless" LED flashes before releasing the AOSS button.
The WXR-2533DHP will grab the image from TFTP server and will boot it.
Flashing instructions:
To persistently write the firmware, flash an openwrt sysupgrade image
from inside the initramfs, for example transfer
via `scp <sysupgrade> root@192.168.1.1:/tmp` and flash on the device
with `sysupgrade -n /tmp/<sysupgrade>`. Then wait ~120 seconds to
let it finish the flashing process.

Ben Greear reported in his patch:
|Subject: netgear r7800: Fix mac address of radios.
|
|Reloading the driver causes the phyX to change, and that
|caused the MAC address to change.
This is because all ODM/OEMs except QCA bothered to write
the correct MAC address for the ath10k wifi into the
calibration data.
This patch copies over the MAC patching helper functions from ipq40xx's
target/linux/ipq40xx/base-files/etc/hotplug.d/firmware/11-ath10k-caldata
file and converts all the devices to patch the correct MACs into the
extracted calibration data before it gets sent to the driver, which sets
up the device with the correct MAC address. It also removes the entries
in the 10_fix_wifi_mac file as they have served their purpose for good.
Please note the C2600: There is conflicting information on what
the offset for the second wifi is supposed to be. This patch uses
what was specified in 10_fix_wifi_mac.
According to Ben Greear this method is save to use with the
stock firmware too. As he explained that the stock firmware
messes up rx-bssid mask calculation when the MAC is changed
after the first vif is created.

This way the radio (phy) name can be the same through module reloads.
To set the desired name:
uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].phyname=wiphy0
I guess this only works on ipq6086 boards as I could not find a more
generic place to put this. Maybe someone can improve it.

- Board model: Model property from the device tree
Change occurrences of board name in userspace by the compatible
string, and removed target specific board detection script
Replace the definition of SUPPORTED_DEVICES in Device/Default
to extract the dt compatible string from each device definition.
Additionally, for devices supported by lede-17.01, append

The ZyXEL NBG6817 calculates all MAC addresses based on the ethaddr
value stored in the U-Boot environment (0:APPSBLENV). No MAC addresses
are stored in the ART partition and the generated MAC addresses for the
wlan interfaces alternate randomly between 12:34:56:78:90:12 and
00:03:7f:12:34:56.
interface new/ OEM MAC old MAC
wlan-2.4g (phy1): ethaddr undefined
wlan-5g (phy0): ethaddr + 1 undefined
lan : ethaddr + 2 ethaddr
wan : ethaddr + 3 ethaddr + 1
This patch defines stable MAC addresses for the wlan interfaces for
the first time instead of generating them at random. The previously
defined values for lan/ wan are changed to follow the settings of the
OEM firmware.

As of now OTP is being correctly parsed and the driver requires to parse pre-caldata to follow corresponding routine.
Rename cal file into pre-calfile so the board initialized correctly with API 2 board data (board-2.bin).
Also remove the now unneeded for qca9984 board.bin symlink to 5GHz calfile.

Serial:
WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 v3.3 level converter!
The Serial setting is 115200-8-N-1. The SoC's serial port is right
next to the MXIC FLASH chip. The board has a unpopulated 1x4 0.1"
header for it. Use a multimeter to figure out the pinout!
This board currently needs an additional u-boot image in order to boot
properly. Booting with EVA isn't possible ATM.
Install Procedure:
0. It's highly recommended to connect to the serial port.
The serial settings are listed above.
1. install a u-boot image for AVM Fritz!Box 4040
(see <https://github.com/chunkeey/FritzBox-4040-UBOOT/releases> and
<https://github.com/chunkeey/FritzBox-4040-UBOOT/blob/master/upload-to-f4040.sh>)
2. upload the initramfs.itb image via tftp (u-boot listens to
192.168.1.1 - use binary transfer mode!)
3. connect to the FB4040 and use sysupgrade sysupgrade.bin
to install the image.
Works:
- Switch and Ethernet (99%)
- Buttons (WLAN, WPS)
- FLASH (1 x 32MiB NOR Chip)
- WLAN2G and WLAN5G
- CPUFREQ scaling
- PRNG
- serial
- Crypto Accelerator
- sysupgrade (Read the flash instructions to avoid bricking)
- full LEDE Install (Read the flash instructions to avoid bricking)
- LEDs (Power, WAN, Info (red and amber), LAN)
The LEDs are connected to the QCA8075 LED ports.
The AR40xx driver contains a gpio-controller to
handle these special "GPIOs".
- USB Both 3.0 and 2.0 ports
- many packages from other ARMv7 boards
(This does include the RaspberryPi Model 2!)
- ...
Not planned:
- WAN<->LAN short-cut
- Qualcomm Secure Execution Environment

D7800 has a simular hardware to R7800 and uses dual QCA9980 for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz band.
However there is no proper initialization for them, which causes a kernel panic due to failed firmware loading.
This patch adds d7800 to ath10k caldata extraction list.
I can get two functional wireless bands after making change to it.

This router is similar to the C2600. Ethernet on WAN + LAN, switch,
sysupgrade, LEDs, buttons and WiFi on 2G + 5G do work. The xDSL modem
and the POTS/DECT interface are not supported yet.
It is not possible to flash LEDE via the TP-Link webinterface. The
image need to be signed. The first 0x200 bytes of the image is the
TP-Link header including the signature. The signature is not validated
by the bootloader. The LEDE image is zeroed in this area.
To install LEDE it is necessary to solder a four pin header to JP2.
Connect a serial interface to this header and interrupt the autostart
of kernel. Transfer the sysupgrade image via TFTP and write it to the
serial flash at 0x320000.
