Overview
The FCC ID on the label of this device is apparently A8JESR900 on at least some units.
- The filings for this FCC ID do indeed mention the ESR1200 and ESR1750 within the test report...
- but only 802.11n (and lower) rates seem to be tested (there is no mention of 80MHz / VHT modes)
- and the photos cover the ESR900 only (w/ its 3x3 11an AR9580 radio).
A FCC ID specifically for the device (A8JESR1200) should be available on newer units.
- "7016A071100g V1.00" is silkscreened on the board of the unit shown for this FCC ID.
Additional specifications, per EnGenius's product page, follow...
- Weight: 0.5 lbs
- Diameter: 6.36"
- Height: 1.64"
Default SSIDs would appear to follow the pattern of EnGeniusXXXXXX for both bands..

ath79: add support for Senao Engenius ESR1200
FCC ID: A8J-ESR900
Engenius ESR1200 is an indoor wireless router with
a gigabit ethernet switch, dual-band wireless,
internal antenna plates, and a USB 2.0 port
**Specification:**
- QCA9557 SOC 2.4 GHz, 2x2
- QCA9882 WLAN PCIe mini card, 5 GHz, 2x2
- QCA8337N SW 4 ports LAN, 1 port WAN
- 40 MHz clock
- 16 MB FLASH MX25L12845EMI-10G
- 2x 64 MB RAM
- UART at J1 populated, RX grounded
- 6 internal antenna plates (omni-directional)
- 5 LEDs, 1 button (power, 2G, 5G, WAN, WPS) (reset)
**MAC addresses:**
Base MAC address labeled as "MAC ADDRESS"
MAC "wanaddr" is not similar to "ethaddr"
eth0 *:c8 MAC u-boot-env ethaddr
phy0 *:c8 MAC u-boot-env ethaddr
phy1 *:c9 --- u-boot-env ethaddr +1
WAN *:66:44 u-boot-env wanaddr
**Serial Access:**
RX on the board for UART is shorted to ground by resistor R176
therefore it must be removed to use the console
but it is not necessary to remove to view boot log
optionally, R175 can be replaced with a solder bridge short
the resistors R175 and R176 are next to the UART RX pin
**Installation:**
Method 1: Firmware upgrade page
OEM webpage at 192.168.0.1
username and password "admin"
Navigate to Settings (gear icon) --> Tools --> Firmware
select the factory.bin image
confirm and wait 3 minutes
Method 2: TFTP recovery
Follow TFTP instructions using initramfs.bin
use sysupgrade.bin to flash using openwrt web interface
**Return to OEM:**
MTD partitions should be backed up before flashing
using TFTP to boot openwrt without overwriting flash
Alternatively, it is possible to edit OEM firmware images
to flash MTD partitions in openwrt to restore OEM firmware
by removing the OEM header and writing the rest to "firmware"
**TFTP recovery:**
Requires serial console, reset button does nothing at boot
rename initramfs.bin to 'uImageESR1200'
make available on TFTP server at 192.168.99.8
power board, interrupt boot by pressing '4' rapidly
execute tftpboot and bootm
**Note on ETH switch registers**
Registers must be written to the ethernet switch
in order to set up the switch's MAC interface.
U-boot can write the registers on it's own
which is needed, for example, in a TFTP transfer.
The register bits from OEM for the QCA8337 switch
can be read from interrupted boot (tftpboot, bootm)
by adding print lines in the switch driver ar8327.c
before 'qca,ar8327-initvals' is parsed from DTS and written.
for example:
pr_info("0x04 %08x\n", ar8xxx_read(priv, AR8327_REG_PAD0_MODE));
