Overview
This is the default hardware platform of the FreedomBox project as of June 2012.
The DreamPlug is covered by two FCC IDs...
- YCJ003-DS2XXXW - Wi-Fi filing
- YCJ003-DS2XXXB - Bluetooth filing
"Dream_Plug_V7R1" and "GLOBALSCALE" is silkscreened on the main board.
Per the FCC docs...
- This device is using the following Genesys Logic chips
- GL836 SD/MMC/MS card reader IC
- GL850G USB 2.0 hub IC
- The model nubmer is 003-DS2001.
- Wi-Fi is 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR supported
- By default, the DreamPlug starts WiFi in AP mode.
Default SSID format of Plug2-uAP-XXXX (XXXX is 4 hex digits, lower case letters)
- WiGLE indicates that the device uses a 00:24:23 (AzureWave) OUI
The wireless module is presumably an AzureWave AW-GH381.
- Other model DreamPlugs may come with 88W8787 based (802.11bgn) Wi-Fi modules..
Schematics and a block diagram of the device are available in the FCC docs.
- "Dream_Plug_V8R1" is silkscreened on the board.
- F0:AD:4E (GlobalScale) OUI for Ethernet interfaces
- 2 MB Serial Flash (MX25L1606EM2I-12G) on the board
- 4x SK hynix HY5PS1G831CFP-S6 (1Gbit [128Mbit x 8], DDR2, PC800) RAM chips
- 2x Marvell 88E1116R GbE PHYs
- C-Media CM108 USB audio controller
Detachable power supply (barrel connector on the logic portion)
This model may come with a 2 GB internal microSD card.
- The GlobalScale site specifies that it comes with a 4 GB microSD card,
- however, the site also specifies the device supports 11b/g/n..
- The PlugWiki page states the device comes with 512 MB of NAND
- (the pads are unpopulated on the FCC photos and Ken's photos).
By default, Debian selects the mv643xx_eth
- (MV-643xx GbE driver version 1.4) module.
