Overview
"2976528502" is silkscreened on the board in the FCC photos.
- Web GUI: http://www.mywifiext.net
The hardware design is identical to the Netgear EX6100v2 which is missing one
- of the 5GHz front-end modules is missing in the FCC photos and is probably
- limited to single-stream speeds in this EX6100v2.
The CPU ID is taken from the EX6100v2 FCC images and assumed to be the same.
DFS was added in a Class II Permissive Change on 10/17/2017
Flashing
| NOTE: During configuration or flashing a device, the only things that should be hooked to the device is the computer and power. |

Subtarget: generic
Package architecture: arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4
Supported Since Commit
Support started version: 18.06.0
Current supported version: 24.10.4
AP-Extender toggle-switch

ipq40xx: add support for Netgear EX6100v2/EX6150v2
Specifications:
SOC: Qualcomm IPQ4018 (DAKOTA) ARM Quad-Core
RAM: 256 MB Winbond W632GU6KB12J
FLASH: 16 MiB Macronix MX25L12805D
ETH: Qualcomm QCA8072
WLAN1: Qualcomm Atheros QCA4018 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n/ac 2x2
WLAN2: Qualcomm Atheros QCA4018 5GHz 802.11n/ac
1x1 (EX6100)
2x2 (EX6150)
INPUT: Power, WPS, reset button
AP / Range-extender toggle
LED: Power, Router, Extender (dual), WPS, Left-/Right-arrow
SERIAL: Header next to QCA8072 chip.
VCC, TX, RX, GND (Square hole is VCC)
WARNING: The serial port needs a TTL/RS-232 v3.3 level converter!
The Serial setting is 115200-8-N-1.
Tested and working:
- Ethernet
- 2.4 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address)
- 5 GHz WiFi (Correct MAC-address)
- Factory installation from WebIF
- Factory installation from tftp
- OpenWRT sysupgrade (Preserving and non-preserving)
- LEDs
- Buttons
Not Working:
- AP/Extender toggle-switch
Untested:
- Support on EX6100v2. They share the same GPL-Code and vendor-images.
The 6100v2 seems to lack one 5GHz stream and differs in the 5GHz
board-blob. I only own a EX6150v2, therefore i am only able to verify
functionality on this device.
Install via Web-Interface:
Upload the factory image to the device to the Netgear Web-Interface.
The device might asks you to confirm the update a second time due to
detecting the OpenWRT firmware as older. The device will automatically
reboot after the image is written to flash.
Install via TFTP:
Connect to the devices serial. Hit Enter-Key in bootloader to stop
autobooting. Command "fw_recovery" will start a tftp server, waiting for
a DNI image to be pushed.
Assign your computer the IP-address 192.168.1.10/24. Push image with
tftp -4 -v -m binary 192.168.1.1 -c put <OPENWRT_FACTORY>
Device will erase factory-partition first, then writes the pushed image
to flash and reboots.
