Official LED layout, from left to right:
[power] [internet] [wps] [wifi] [lan3/2/1] [wan]
Redefinition for OpenWrt:
[power]: used for led-boot, led-failsafe, and led-running
[internet]: used for WAN RX/TX indication
[wps]: used for led-upgrade
[wifi] and [lan3/2/1]: unchanged
[wan]: used for WAN link indication
Installing OpenWrt:
- Setup a tftp server on your PC. Copy
xxx-preloader.bin, xxx-bl31-uboot.fip and
xxx-initramfs.itb to tftp root directory.
- Connect to the router via ssh or telnet,
username: useradmin, password is the web
login password of the router.
- Backup all critical flash partitions with
the following commands where x.x.x.x is
the IP of your PC.
IP=x.x.x.x
cd /dev
for d in /sys/class/mtd/mtd?; do
if [ "$(cat $d/name)" = "BL2" ]; then
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r bl2.img -p $IP
elif [ "$(cat $d/name)" = "FIP" ]; then
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r fip.bin -p $IP
elif [ "$(cat $d/name)" = "Factory" ]; then
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r factory.bin -p $IP
fi
done
for d in /sys/devices/virtual/ubi/ubi0/ubi0_*; do
[ "$(cat $d/name)" != "customer" ] && continue
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r customer -p $IP
break
done
- Flash with the following commands:
cd /tmp
tftp -r xxx-preloader.bin -g x.x.x.x
tftp -r xxx-bl31-uboot.fip -g x.x.x.x
mtd write xxx-preloader.bin spi0.0
mtd write xxx-bl31-uboot.fip FIP
mtd erase ubi
- Set a static ip(192.168.1.254) for your PC.
And then reboot the router. It will run
initramfs image automatically.
- After openwrt boots up, perform sysupgrade
via web UI.
Reverting to the vendor firmware:
- Setup a tftp server on your PC with ip
address 192.168.1.254. And make sure
bl2.img, fip.bin, factory.bin and customer
are located in tftp root directory.
- Power off the router.
- Press and hold WPS key, then power on
the router.
- Release WPS key, when internet/wifi/wps
leds are blinking.
- Wait until internet/wifi/wps leds light
up, power off the router.
- Press and hold reset key, power up the
router, release reset key 15s later.
- Connect to http://192.168.1.1, now you
can upload vendor .bin firmware.
Uboot netconsole:
Uboot netconsole can be enabled by WPS
or reset key.
- Setup a linux PC with ip 192.168.1.254.
Open a new terminal and execute
'stty -isig -echo cbreak; nc -lup 6666'
- Press and hold WPS(or reset) key, then
power on the router.
- Release key once internet/wifi/wps leds
are all on.
NOTE: don't hold the key more than 5s
after internet/wifi/wps leds on, or it
will try to revert to vendor firmware.
- 5s later, uboot bootmenu will show on
the terminal.

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.
Sunshine!
Download
Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.
If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.
An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or macOS system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.
Requirements
You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.
binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.7+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -ato obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -ato install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfigto select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
maketo build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.
Related Repositories
The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of
different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package
manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port
packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.

LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.
-
OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.
-
OpenWrt Routing: Packages specifically focused on (mesh) routing.
-
OpenWrt Video: Packages specifically focused on display servers and clients (Xorg and Wayland).
