WPJ428 + SIMCOM 8202G

=====================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We try to build a FOSS 5GNR Router with OpenWRT.
|
|
|
|
|
Some challenges we have encountered so far:
|
|
|
|
|
- OpenWRT stable misses a patch to enable our board ethernet port -> we compile from source
|
|
|
|
|
- The Modem Manager simtech plugin does not declare 5GNR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Flash the router

(Configure your computer with a static IP address 192.168.1.2/24 and make sure you have a running tftp server containing your image)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
First connect your UART cable on the router:

Launch minicom
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
sudo minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then boot the router. Press repeatidly `[ENTER]` to get the following prompt:

Then enter the following commands:
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
set ipaddr 192.168.1.1
|
|

set serverip 192.168.1.2
|
|
