Flashing
 | NOTE: During configuration or flashing a device, the only things that should be hooked to the device is the computer and power. |
Flashing OpenWrt
 | This device is NOT RECOMMENDED for future use with OpenWrt due to low flash/ram.
DO NOT BUY DEVICES WITH 8MB FLASH / 64MB RAM if you intend to flash an up-to-date and secure OpenWrt version onto it! See 8/64 warning for details. This device does not have sufficient resources (flash and/or RAM) to provide secure and reliable operation. This means that you will not be able to install many packages, and that you might experience crashes due to OOM situations more or less often. See OpenWrt on 8/64 devices what you can do now. |

ar71xx: add support for ALFA Network N5Q ALFA Network N5Q is a successor of previous model, the N5 (outdoor CPE/AP, based on Atheros AR7240 + AR9280). New version is based on Atheros AR9344. Specification: - 550/400/200 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB) - 64 MB of RAM (DDR2) - 16 MB of FLASH (SPI NOR) - 2x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, with passive PoE support (24 V) - 2T2R 5 GHz (AR9344), with ext. PA (RFPA5542) and LNA, up to 27 dBm - 8x LED (7 are driven by GPIO) - 1x button (reset) - external h/w watchdog (EM6324QYSP5B, disabled and not used) - header for optional 802.3at/af PoE module - DC jack for main power input (optional, not installed by default) - UART header on PCB Flash instruction: You can use sysupgrade image directly in vendor firmare which is based on OpenWrt/LEDE. Alternatively, you can use web recovery mode in U-Boot: 1. Configure PC with static IP 192.168.1.2/24. 2. Connect PC with one of RJ45 ports, press the reset button, power up device, wait for first blink of all LEDs (indicates network setup), then keep button for 3 following blinks and release it. 3. Open 192.168.1.1 address in your browser and upload sysupgrade image. |
