TP-Link TL-WR942N v1 is a 2.4 GHz single-band N450 router, based on
Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9561.
Specification:
- 775/650/258 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
- 128 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 16 MB of FLASH (SPI NOR)

* Serial console is disabled in OEM non-beta firmwares and corresponding
GPIO pins 14 and 15 are assigned to control USB1 and USB2 LEDs by
production (non-beta) U-Boot and firmware.
Currently not working:
1. USB1 and USB2 LEDs if UART RX and TX pins are assigned to their GPIOs
by some U-Boot versions.
Flash instruction under vendor GUI:
1. Download "lede-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr942n-v1-squashfs-factory.bin".
2. Go to WEB interface and perform usual firmware upgrade.
FLash instruction under U-Boot recovery mode (doesn't work in beta
firmware):
1. Setup PC with static IP "192.168.0.66/24" and tftp server.
2. Change "*-factory" image filename to "WR942v1_recovery.bin" and make
it available to download from your tftp server.
3. Press "reset" button and power up the router, wait till "WPS" LED
turns on.
Flash instruction under U-Boot, using UART (can be done only with
preinstalled UART-enabled U-Boot version!):
1. Use "tpl" to stop autobooting and obtain U-Boot CLI access.
2. Setup ip addresses for U-Boot and your tftp server.
3. Issue below commands:

You have three options:
- Use the vendor firmware upgrade page on the web interface and give
it the factory.img. This is the easiest way to go about it.
- If you have serial access during u-boot, interrupt the normal boot
(any key before timeout) and run 'run failsafe_boot'; this will bring
you to a minimal openwrt luci image on ip 192.168.1.1 useful if you've
bricked the normal firmware.
- Use the vendor's management cli, which can be accessed via telnet
with the same credentials as the web login (default admin:admin), then
issue the following commands:

This change is required to make the GBit switch work on my Mikrotik Routerboard RB2011UiAS-RM, and I assume that the other RB2011 variants are exactly the same in terms of the switch. I have tested the board without and with the patch and confirm that the GBit ports are not supported at all (i.e. no communication works) with the current version in trunk and that everything works with the patch applied. The test box has been running for a few days with the patch applied, and does not show any performance problems in a test setting. I have not used it with LEDE in production so far, but with a previous turnk version of OpenWRT for many years - with the same patch applied. I therefore have good indication that it is stable.
For the record, the switch chip on my test box is identified as
switch0: Atheros AR8327 rev. 4 switch registered on ag71xx-mdio.0
The value 0x6f000000 has been taken from the table at https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/mikrotik/rb2011uias with the previous discussion thread still online at https://lists.openwrt.org/pipermail/openwrt-devel/2014-December/029949.html.
One definite improvement from the older OpenWRT trunk version I have been running in production and current LEDE trunk is that the SFP interface can be kept in the default configuration without excessive kernel messages about it constantly going up and down. I have not yet tested an actual SFP module, though.
Performance seems to be reasonable. Routing between two GBit ports on that switch separated by different VLANs with the default firewall ruleset (and one additional rule two allow traffic between the VLANs), but without NAT, iperf3 results are:
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth Retr
[ 4] 0.00-10.00 sec 508 MBytes 426 Mbits/sec 102 sender
[ 4] 0.00-10.00 sec 506 MBytes 425 Mbits/sec receiver
With a connection going through NAT (also 2 ports on the same GBit switch, same ruleset, but NAT active), routing performance drops to around 250 MBit/s.
(Note that RouterOS achieves beyond 900 MBit/s on the same hardware with the default rule set and the FastTrack rule active even for NAT, see https://wiki.mikrotik.com/index.php?title=Manual:IP/Fasttrack and http://www.mikrotik.com/download/share/FastTrack.pdf).
Summarizing, I strongly recommend to apply this patch in trunk, so that the GBit switch chip rev. 4 can be supported upstream in the next LEDE release (hopefully soon).

the higher address. I think the 16 mb flash are intended to be used as
8+8mb for a fallback image. In my hardware only the lower address has a
bootable image. But to make sure future hardware will boot lede too, I
erase one block, so uboot will skip this address.

P&W (full name: Shenzhen Progress&Win Technologies) R602N (could be also
labeled as R602F, R602, etc.) is a simple N300 router with 5-port
10/100 Mbps switch, non-detachable antennas and USB.
CPE505 is an outdoor CPE with PoE support and detachable antennas.
Both devices are based on Qualcomm/Atheros QCA9531 v2.
Common specification:
- 650/597/216 MHz (CPU/DDR/AHB)
- 64 MB of RAM (DDR2)
- 16 MB of FLASH
- UART (J2) header on PCB
R602N specification:
- 5x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
- 1x USB 2.0
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz with external LNA and PA (SE2576L), up to 28 dBm
- 2x external, non-detachable antennas
- 7x LED, 1x button
CPE505N specification:
- 2x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (both ports support passive PoE 12-24 V)
- 2T2R 2.4 GHz with external LNA and PA (SKY65174-21), up to 30 dBm
- 2x external, detachable antennas (RP-SMA connectors)
- 1x RGB LED, 2x LEDs (in RJ45 sockets), 1x button
Flash instructions:
It seems that there are many different versions of the firmware which
these devices are shipped with. The generic/standard one is based on
some modified OpenWrt and LEDE firmware can be flashed directly from
vendor's webgui or with sysupgrade (root password is "admin123").
Before flashing, make sure (use "fw_printenv") that the kernel load
address in your device is set to "0x9f050000" (bootcmd variable is
"bootm 0x9f050000"). If your device uses different load address, you
should first change it, under vendor's firmware, with command:
fw_setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f050000 || bootm OLD_ADDRESS"
Where OLD_ADDRESS is previous kernel load address (in CPE505 version
I got access to, it was "0x9fe80000"). This will allow you to use
both the vendor's and LEDE firmware.
If version of your device contains empty U-Boot environment (you will
get information about this after issuing "fw_printenv"), you should
use U-Boot, serial line access and TFTP to perform firmware upgrade:
1. tftp 0x80060000 lede-ar71xx-generic-...-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
2. erase 0x9f050000 +$filesize
3. cp.b $fileaddr 0x9f050000 $filesize
4. setenv bootcmd "bootm 0x9f050000 || bootm OLD_ADDRESS"
5. saveenv && reset
These devices contain also web recovery mode inside U-Boot. It can be
started with pressing the reset button for around 3 seconds just after
the device powerup. Web recovery panel is available on "192.168.10.9"
and to be able to use it, IP on your PC must be set to "192.168.10.10".
Make sure to change kernel load address before using recovery mode or
the U-Boot will not be able to load LEDE firmware.

This patch enables mtdsplit for the MikroTik subtarget.
It converts mach-rbspi.c to use a single "firmware" partition.
Finally, it converts the SPI NOR profile to metadata images:
the original combined-image format is gone, the images are now
"standard" sysupgrade images with metadata appended.
Note: kernel2minor apparently pads the kernel container to erase-block
boundary, but this is undocumented behaviour, so we do not rely on it
and call pad-to anyway.
Note: in platform.sh, the boards are tested last in platform_check_image()
as this should eventually become the "*)" default case when more devices
switch to metadata images.

This patch adds preliminary kernel support based on init data used in
Mikrotik's linux-3.3.5 kernel patch. Since this is totally experimental and
untested, the necessary glue in base-files has not been added, the code is
provided as a starting point in case somebody with that hardware wants to help
getting it supported.
The cAP lite (cAPL 2nD) should also be supported once it is determined whether
or not it uses the same board identifier as the mAP lite.
