Write a short, relevant description of the device. Include a technical overview, but avoid marketing buzzwords/useless stuff. Two to four sentences is about right. A picture is good, too. Edit the page to see how to add pictures.
Any text with a light background (like this one) provides instructions for creating the Details Page. When you have filled in correct/useful information (instead of any template that's there) remove the instructions, as well as the <WRAP>
that encloses it.
Getting started with a new Device Page
- This is an empty template that suggests the information that should be present on a well-constructed Device Page. This means, that you have to fill it with life and information.
- There are several “fixme” tags with text on a light background (like this text) throughout this template. As you fill in the page, remove those tags so that people can judge its completeness.
- When there are no more “fixme” tags left, delete this one too, along with the
<WRAP>
that encloses it.
Keep the articles modular
- Please include only model specific information, omit bla,bla and put everything generic into separate articles
- If you have no time to write certain stuff, link to docs
- base-system should lead the way, do not explain this again
- DO NOT provide a complete howto here! Instead groom the general documentation.

Please add the installation procedure here.
Flash Layout
Find out flash layout, then add the flash layout table here (copy, paste, modify the example).
Please check out the article Flash layout. It contains examples and explanations that describe how to document the flash layout.
OEM easy installation
The instructions below are for Broadcom devices and only serve as an example.
Remove / modify them if they do not apply to this particular device!
This section deals with
- How you install OpenWrt from a device freshly opened
- The steps required such as reset to factory defaults if the device has already been configured
Note: Reset router to factory defaults if it has been previously configured.
- Upload .bin file to router
- Telnet to 192.168.1.1 and set a root password, or browse to
http://192.168.1.1
if LuCI is installed.

Upgrading OpenWrt
→ generic.sysupgrade
These are generic instructions. Update with your router's specifics.
LuCI Web Upgrade Process
- Browse to
http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/mini/system/upgrade/
LuCI Upgrade URL - Wait for reboot
Terminal Upgrade Process
Linksys E4200 Serial Pinout Connector
If you don't have a GUI (LuCI) available, you can alternatively upgrade via the command line.There are two command line methods for upgrading:
mtd
Note: It is important that you put the firmware image into the ramdisk (/tmp) before you start flashing.
sysupgrade
- Login as root via SSH on 192.168.1.1, then enter the following commands:
mtd
If sysupgrade
does not support this router, use mtd
.
- Login as root via SSH on 192.168.1.1, then enter the following commands:
Debricking
Failsafe mode
→ failsafe_and_factory_reset
Basic configuration
→ Basic configuration After flashing, proceed with this.
Set up your Internet connection, configure wireless, configure USB port, etc.
