2026-01-25T21:21:58Z

TCL LINKHUB HH500V also known as Vodafone Gigacube B157 is a dual band 802.11ax 5G NR CPE with an FXS port. Specifications: * SoC: Qualcomm IPQ8072A * RAM: 1024 MB * NAND flash: 256MB NAND (MT29F2G08ABBGAH4) * NOR flash: 64MB NOR (MX25U25635F) - only in some variants * WiFi 5G: Qualcomm QCN5054 * WiFi 2.4G: Qualcomm QCN5024 * Ethernet 2.5G: Qualcomm QCA8081 * Ethernet 1G: Qualcomm QCA8075 * Modem: GosunCn GM800 (Qualcomm Snapdragon X55) * SIM: 1 nano-SIM card slot * Buttons: Power, Reset, WPS * LEDs: Power (B/R), WiFi (B), 4G (B/Y/R), 5G (B/Y/R) * VoIP: 1 FXS RJ11 port (not supported in OpenWrt) * Power: 12V, 3A UART serial console: * 115200,8N1,1.8V * Three unmarked test points next to QJ2012A: +---------+ | QJ2012A | +---------+ o TX o GND o RX o o o Installation via OEM firmware: * Use the following process to obtain root ssh access https://forum.openwrt.org/t/150371/24 * Connect using root with no password on port 42000 * Optionally for serial bootloader access run : fw_setenv bootdelay=3 * SCP factory.bin to /tmp * Run: sysupgrade -n /tmp/factory.bin Installation via serial console and OEM firmware:: * Use console to access OEM firmware shell * Proceed with SCP & sysupgrade as described above Other notes: * This device uses active partition rotation * Some versions (TCL branded?) have a NOR chip in addition to NAND * The above is supported by u-boot patching DT partitions * DT patching does NOT occur on tftpboot/bootm * Modem is detected as foxconn-sdx55 by kernel (same VID/PID) * This works OK-ish and should be improved if we can get OEM modem details Signed-off-by: Milan Krstic Link: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/19182 Signed-off-by: Robert Marko

qualcommax: ipq60xx: add support for TP-Link EAP620HD v3

2026-01-25T15:17:08Z

Specifications: * SoC: Qualcomm IPQ6018/AP-CP03-C1 (64-bit Quad-core Arm Cortex-A53 @ 1.2 GHz) * RAM: 2x Zentel A3T4GF40BBF-HP (1 GiB DDR3-1866 (13-13-13)) * Serial Port: 1v8 TTL 115200n8 * Wi-Fi: Qualcomm QCN5022 (802.11ax/b/g/n) * Wi-Fi: Qualcomm QCN5052 (802.11ac/ax/n) * Ethernet: RTL8211FS (10/100/1000BASE-T) * Flash: GigaDevice PSR1GA30DT (128 MiB) * LEDs: 1x Blue Status (GPIO 35 Active High) * Buttons: 1x Reset (GPIO 9 Active Low) * FCCID: 2AXJ4EAP620HDV3 * UART: 4-pin unpopulated header by the J1 footprint Installation Instructions (Serial+TFTP): 1. Locate the J1 footprint which contains 4 unpopulated pins where starting from the arrow, the pins are TX, RX, VCC and GND respectively. 2. Connect a 1v8 TTL port to the 4 pins. Ensure RX and TX are crossed over. 3. Copy openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-tplink_eap620-hd-v3-initramfs-uImage.itb to your TFTP server. 4. Power up the AP and hold Ctrl+B in the serial console (115200n8) until autoboot is halted. 5. Run the following commands in the U-boot prompt: IPQ6018# setenv serverip IPQ6018# setenv ipaddr IPQ6018# tftpboot 0x44000000 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-tplink_eap620-hd-v3-initramfs-uImage.itb IPQ6018# bootm 0x44000000 You may need to type Ctrl+C and Enter before running these commands to clear invisible characters from the buffer. 6. Run the following command in a terminal to copy the sysupgrade image to be installed (check IP address): $ scp -O openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-tplink_eap620-hd-v3-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/ 7. Activate the OpenWrt serial console and run the following commands: # cd /tmp # sysupgrade -n openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-tplink_eap620-hd-v3-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin 8. The AP will reboot and OpenWrt will be successfully installed. Installation Instructions (Web UI method): 1. Set up the device using the vendor's web UI. Navigate to Management->SSH and enable the "SSH Login" checkbox. Select "Save". 2. Connect to the machine via SSH: $ ssh -o hostkeyalgorithms=ssh-rsa 3. Disable signature verification: $ cliclientd stopcs 4. Rename the "-web-ui-factory" image to something less than 63 characters, maintaining the ".bin" suffix. 5. Go to System -> Firmware Update. Under "New Firmware File", click "Browse" and select the image. Select "Update" and confirm by clicking "OK". 6. If the update fails, the web UI should show an error message. Otherwise, the device should reboot into OpenWrt. Device support followed from EAP620HD v2 and eap6xx-outdoor for DTS.
