Add support for the TP-Link EAP615-Wall, an AX1800 Wall Plate WiFi 6 AP. The device is very similar to the TP-Link EAP235-Wall. Hardware: * SoC: MediaTek MT7621AT * RAM: 128MiB * Flash: 16MiB SPI-NOR * Ethernet: 4x GbE * Back: ETH0 (PoE-PD) * Bottom: ETH1, ETH2, ETH3 (PoE passthrough) * WiFi: MT7905DAN/MT7975DN 2.4/5 GHz 2T2R * LEDS: 1x white * Buttons: 1x LED, 1x reset Stock firmware uses a random MAC address for ethernet. OpenWrt uses the MAC address that is on the device label for ethernet and the wireless interfaces. MAC address must not be incremented, as this will cause MAC address conflicts in case you have two devices with consecutive MAC addresses. Instead, different locally administered addresses will be generated automatically, based on the MAC on the label. Installation via stock firmware: * Enable SSH in the TP-Link web interface * SSH to the device * Run `cliclientd stopcs` * Upload the OpenWrt factory image via the TP-Link web interface Installation via bootloader: * Solder TTL header. Pinout: 1: TX, 2: RX, 3: GND, 4: VCC, with pin 1 closest to ETH1. Baud rate 115200 * Interrupt boot process by holding a key during boot * Boot the OpenWrt initramfs: # tftpboot 0x84000000 openwrt-ramips-mt7621-tplink_eap615-wall-v1-initramfs-kernel.bin # bootm * Copy openwrt-ramips-mt7621-tplink_eap615-wall-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin to /tmp and use sysupgrade to install it Thanks to Sander Vanheule for his work on the EAP235-Wall, which made adding support for the EAP615-Wall very easy.

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!
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX 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 python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -a
to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -a
to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfig
to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
make
to 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.
