k3-asuswrt-merlin New Gen(version 386.7 and higher)

This project forks form Asuswrt-Merlin, the goal is to fit for PHICOMM-K3.

features

1.Based entirely on asuswrt-merlin.ng.

2.Fixed kernel boot & gpio for K3, no error in TTL.

3.Transplant CFE code from src-rt-7.x.main to K3, router will not crash.

4.Adding K3 screen control util, screen is full function now.

5.Some extra CN & TW translation.

how to build

FOLLOW THE WIKI - https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng/wiki/Compile-Firmware-from-source

Toolchains to be prepared in advance

Asuswrt-Merlin toolchains - https://github.com/RMerl/am-toolchains

!!! important to export /opt/brcm-arm/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH

MAC Adderss of CFE

You can modify cfe MAC address to your own in rt-k3_nvram.txt

(release/src-rt-7.14.114.x/src/cfe/build/broadcom/bcm947xx/compressed/rt-k3_nvram.txt)

New firmware flash will copy MAC from orignal CFE on the fisrt startup, it takes effect only when flash cfe separately.

where to modify:

(LAN MAC) et0macaddr=00:11:22:33:44:55 -> et0macaddr=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

(2.4G MAC) 1:macaddr=00:11:22:33:44:66 -> 1:macaddr=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

(5G MAC) 2:macaddr=00:11:22:33:44:77 -> 2:macaddr=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX means your own MAC address of LAN, 2.4G, 5G(They are generally different).

---

Added model RT-K3, use "make rt-k3" in src-rt-7.14.114.x/src to compile and gen trx image.

Use "make" to compile cfe separately in:

/release/src-rt-7.14.114.x/src/cfe/

or

/release/src-rt-7.14.114.x/src/cfe/build/broadcom/bcm947xx/

---

Output folder:

TRX image: release/src-rt-7.14.114.x/src/image/RT-K3_xxx.xx_x.trx

CFE image: release/src-rt-7.14.114.x/src/cfe/cfe_rt-k3.bin

(cfe_rt-k3.bin will be copied to /rom/cfe in TRX image if exsit)

Additional pack(put into release/src/router/)
