apm821xx: add support for the Netgear WNDAP620 and WNDAP660
This patch adds support for the Netgear WNDAP620 and WNDAP660, they are similar devices, but due to the LAN LED configuration, the switch setup and WIFI configuration each gets a different device target. Hardware Highlights WNDAP620: CPU: AMCC PowerPC APM82181 at 1000 MHz DRAM: 128 MB, 2 x 64 MiB DDR2 Hynix H5PS5162GF CPU: AMCC PowerPC APM82181 at 1000 MHz FLASH: 32 MiB, NAND SLC, Hynix HY27US08561A Ethernet: RealTek RTL8363SB 2x2-Port Switch PHY - Only 1 GBit Port (POE) Wifi: Atheros AR9380 minipcie - Dual-Band - 3x3:3 Serial: console port with RJ45 Interface (9600-N-8-1) LEDS: Power, LAN-Activity, dual color LAN-Linkspeed, 2.4GHz, 5GHz LEDs Button: Soft Reset Button Antennae: 3 internal dual-band antennae + 3 x RSMA for external antennaes Hardware Highlights WNDAP660: CPU: AMCC PowerPC APM82181 at 1000 MHz + 2 Heatsinks DRAM: 256 MB, 2 x 128 MiB DDR2 FLASH: 32 MiB, NAND SLC, Hynix HY27US08561A Ethernet: RealTek RTL8363SB 2x2-Port Switch PHY (POE) Wifi1: Atheros AR9380 minipcie - Dual-Band - 3x3:3 Wifi2: Atheros AR9380 minipcie - Dual-Band - 3x3:3 Serial: console port with RJ45 Interface (9600-N-8-1) LEDS: Power, LAN-Activity, 2x dual color LAN-Linkspeed, 2.4GHz, 5GHz LEDs Button: Soft Reset Button Antennae: 6 internal dual-band antennae + 3 x RSMA for external antennaes Flashing requirements: - needs a tftp server at 192.168.1.10/serverip. - special 8P8C(aka RJ45)<->D-SUB9 Console Cable ("Cisco Console Cable"). Note: Both WNDAP6x0 have a MAX3232 transceivers, hence no need for any separate CMOS/TTL level shifters. External Antenna: The antennae mux is controlled by GPIO 11 and GPIO14. Valid Configurations: = Config# = | = GPIO 11 = | = GPIO 14 = | ===== Description ===== 1. | 1 / High | 0 / Low | Use the internal antennae (default) 2. | 0 / Low | 1 / High | Use the external antennae The external antennaes are only meant for the 2.4 GHz band. One-way Flashing instructions via u-boot: 0. connect the serial cable to the RJ45 Console Port Note: This requires a poper RS232 and not a TTL/USB adaptor. 1. power up the AP and interrupt the u-boot process at 'Hit any key to stop autoboot' 2. setup serverip and ipaddr env settings Enter the following commands into the u-boot shell # setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1 # setenv serverip 192.168.1.10 3. download the factory.img image to the AP Enter the following commands into the u-boot shell # tftp ${kernel_addr_r} openwrt-apm821xx-nand-netgear_wndap660-squashfs-factory.img 4. verfiy image integrity Enter the following commands into the u-boot shell # crc32 $fileaddr $filesize If the calculated crc32 checksum does not match, go back to step 3. 5. flash the image Enter the following commands into the u-boot shell # nand erase 0x110000 0x1bd0000 # nand write ${kernel_addr_r} 0x110000 ${filesize} 6. setup uboot environment Enter the following commands into the u-boot shell # setenv bootargs # setenv fileaddr # setenv filesize # setenv addroot 'setenv bootargs ${bootargs} root=/dev/ubiblock0_0' # setenv owrt_boot 'nboot ${kernel_addr_r} nand0 0x110000; run addroot; run addtty; bootm ${kernel_addr_r}' # setenv bootcmd 'run owrt_boot' # saveenv 7. boot # run bootcmd Booting initramfs instructions via u-boot: Follow steps 0 - 2 from above. 3. boot initramfs Enter the following commands into the u-boot shell # tftp ${kernel_addr_r} openwrt-apm821xx-nand-netgear_wndap660-initramfs-kernel.bin # run addtty # bootm ${kernel_addr_r} Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@gmail.com> |
