i'm currently trying to build and install openwrt on *any* sort of router or eval board incorporating mediatek parts, specifically: * MT7620A SoC (with onboard 2.4G radio) * MT7610E external 5G radio chip recently, i grabbed one of these d-link dir-810l routers from canada computers: http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=27_1046_1047&item_id=061804 because, as you can see, there is an openwrt wiki page that *suggests* you can build and install on it: http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/d-link/dir-810l in fact, doing a standard openwrt build, one gets a bunch of output "sysupgrade" images for a number of "ramips" architectures: openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-dir-810l-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin <-- there openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-Lenovo-y1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-Lenovo-y1s-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-mt7620a_mt7530-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-mt7620a_mt7610e-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-mt7620a-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-mt7620a_v22sg-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-mzk-750dhp-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-na930-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin ... and so on ... however, it seems impossible to flash that image to the router using the factory firmware and the standard "Upgrade Firmware" button. i have already upgraded the router to the latest official d-link firmware -- that worked just fine, confirming that the d-link firmware on the router is happy to accept newer d-link firmware. but the d-link firmware clearly doesn't like the sysupgrade image produced by openwrt, and i don't know why. so, first question, has anyone out there done this? more generally, i'm looking for *any* openwrt-happy router or dev board that is based on the mediatek MT7620A/MT7610E chipset, so i'm open to suggestions. if anyone wants to chat further, i can arrange to be at this week's OCLUG meeting. i'd really like to resolve this issue so i can get on with a project. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
