necessary bits) and enabling all revlevant ports. This will also do
a side hustle of assigning proper clocks for power controller and
specifying proper power domain for few devices.
Apparently U-Boot will discard whole node if requested pin function is
unknown to the driver. This resulted in inability to interact with
U-Boot on the said board, as U-Boot always assumed the recovery key
pressed and issued recovery procedure. Log snippet:
Recovery procedure also booted recovery image, which didn't affect much
the 23.05.x release, since the root fs argument was valid, so changes
persisted. But as 24.10.x hit with fitblk, the board will boot only
recovery image (initramfs) because of default bootargs will reset on each
boot and U-Boot provided bootargs took precedence.

- Label MAC device: eth0
Internal modem of MF286C is supported via uqmi.
Console connection: connector X2 is the console port, with the following
pinout, starting from pin 1, which is the topmost pin when the board is
upright:
- VCC (3.3V). Do not use unless you need to source power for the
converer from it.
- TX
- RX
- GND
Default port configuration in U-boot as well as in stock firmware is
115200-8-N-1.
Installation:
Due to different flash layout from stock firmware, sysupgrade from
within stock firmware is impossible, despite it's based on QSDK which
itself is based on OpenWrt.
STEP 0: Stock firmware update:
As installing OpenWrt cuts you off from official firmware updates for
the modem part, it is recommended to update the stock firmware to latest
ath79: support ZTE MF286C
STEP 1: Booting initramfs image:
Method 1: using serial console (RECOMMENDED):
- Have TFTP server running, exposing the OpenWrt initramfs image, and
set your computer's IP address as 192.168.0.22. This is the default
expected by U-boot. You may wish to change that, and alter later
commands accordingly.
- Connect the serial console if you haven't done so already,
- Interrupt boot sequence by pressing any key in U-boot when prompted
- Use the following commands to boot OpenWrt initramfs through TFTP:
(Replace server IP and router IP as needed). There is no emergency
TFTP boot sequence triggered by buttons, contrary to MF283+.
- When OpenWrt initramfs finishes booting, proceed to actual
installation.
STEP 2: Backing up original software:
As the stock firmware may be customized by the carrier and is not
officially available in the Internet, IT IS IMPERATIVE to back up the
stock firmware, if you ever plan to returning to stock firmware.
It is highly recommended to perform backup using both methods, to avoid
hassle of reassembling firmware images in future, if a restore is
needed.
Method 1: after booting OpenWrt initramfs image via TFTP:
- Connect your USB-UART adapter
- Dump stock firmware located on stock kernel and ubi partitions:
And keep them in a safe place, should a restore be needed in future.
Method 2: using stock firmware:
- Connect an external USB drive formatted with FAT or ext4 to the USB
port.
- The drive will be auto-mounted to /var/usb_disk
- Check the flash layout of the device:
Differences might indicate that this is NOT a MF286C device but
one of other variants.
- Copy over all MTD partitions, for example by executing the following:
for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15; do cat /dev/mtd$i > \
/var/usb_disk/mtd$i; done
"Firmware" partition can be skipped, it is a concatenation
of "kernel" and "rootfs".
- If the count of MTD partitions is different, this might indicate that
this is not a MF286C device, but one of its other variants.
- (optionally) rename the files according to MTD partition names from
/proc/mtd
- Unmount the filesystem:
umount /var/usb_disk; sync
and then remove the drive.
- Store the files in safe place if you ever plan to return to stock
firmware. This is especially important, because stock firmware for
this device is not available officially, and is usually customized by
the mobile providers.
STEP 3: Actual installation:
- Set your computer IP to 192.168.1.22/24
- scp the sysupgrade image to the device:
STEP 4: WAN connection establishment
Since the router is equipped with LTE modem as its main WAN interface, it
might be useful to connect to the Internet right away after
installation. To do so, please put the following entries in
/etc/config/network, replacing the specific configuration entries with
one needed for your ISP:
config interface 'wan'
option proto 'qmi'
option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0'
option auth '<auth>' # As required, usually 'none'
option pincode '<pin>' # If required by SIM
option apn '<apn>' # As required by ISP
option pdptype '<pdp>' # Typically 'ipv4', or 'ipv4v6' or 'ipv6'
For example, the following works for most polish ISPs
config interface 'wan'
option proto 'qmi'
option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0'
option auth 'none'
option apn 'internet'
option pdptype 'ipv4'
The required minimum is:
config interface 'wan'
option proto 'qmi'
option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0'
In this case, the modem will use last configured APN from stock
firmware - this should work out of the box, unless your SIM requires
PIN which can't be switched off.
If you have build with LuCI, installing luci-proto-qmi helps with this
task.
Restoring the stock firmware:
- Boot to initramfs as in step 3:
- Completely detach ubi0 partition using ubidetach /dev/ubi0_0
- Copy over the stock kernel image using scp to /tmp
- Erase kernel and restore stock kernel:
(scp mtd4_kernel.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/)
mtd write kernel /tmp/mtd4_kernel.bin
rm /tmp/mtd4_kernel.bin
- Copy over the stock partition backups one-by-one using scp to /tmp, and
restore them individually. Otherwise you might run out of space in
tmpfs:
- If the write was correct, force a device reboot with
reboot -f
Quirks and known issues
- It was observed, that CH340-based USB-UART converters output garbage
during U-boot phase of system boot. At least CP2102 is known to work
properly.
- Kernel partition size is increased to 4MB compared to stock 3MB, to
accomodate future kernel updates - at this moment OpenWrt 5.10 kernel
image is at 2.5MB which is dangerously close to the limit. This has no
effect on booting the system - but keep that in mind when reassembling
an image to restore stock firmware.
- uqmi seems to be unable to change APN manually, so please use the one
you used before in stock firmware first. If you need to change it,
please use protocok '3g' to establish connection once, or use the
following command to change APN (and optionally IP type) manually:
echo -ne 'AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","<apn>' > /dev/ttyUSB0
- The only usable LED as a "system LED" is the blue debug LED hidden
inside the case. All other LEDs are controlled by modem, on which the
router part has some influence only on Wi-Fi LED.
- GPIO5 used for modem reset is a suicide switch, causing a hardware
reset of whole board, not only the modem. It is attached to
gpio-restart driver, to restart the modem on reboot as well, to ensure
QMI connectivity after reboot, which tends to fail otherwise.
- Modem, as in MF283+, exposes root shell over ADB - while not needed
for OpenWrt operation at all - have fun lurking around.
The same modem module is used as in older MF286.

On the ramips/mt7620 target the kernel would grown by 4.5kB.
For some small targets which do not support a DSA switch by default the

This has several advantages:
* reduction in the size of the kernel and the complete image. Individual

ramips: Add support for Genexis / Inteno Pulse EX400
Add support for Genexis Pulse EX400 / Inteno Pulse EX400. A branded
variant for the Finnish ISP DNA has already been added in fea2264d9fdd
(ramips: mt7621: Add DNA Valokuitu Plus EX400, 2023-07-31). This commit
adds support for the generic variants with Inteno and Genexis branding.
Inteno changed its name to Genexis and both brandings exist.
In terms of electronics, there is no difference between the DNA-branded
version and other brandings. LED markings on the case are different,
though. While the DNA-version has a "software-update" LED, the other
versions have a WPS LED. To reduce user confusion, create a separate
image.
Add the different device-tree with the different LED and rename things
to work the same way for both variants.
Firmware:
The vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt (Reboot) with a kernel version
4.4.93. The flash is arranged as below and there is a dual boot
mechanism alternating between rootfs_0 and rootfs_1.
In OpenWrt rootfs_0 will be used as a boot partition that will contain the
kernel and the dtb. The squashfs rootfs and overlay are standard OpenWrt
behaviour.
U-boot:
With proper serial access, booting can be halted to U-boot by pressing
any key. TFTP and flash writes are available, but only the first one has
been tested.
NOTE: Recovery mode can be accessed by holding down the reset button while
powering on the device. The led 'Update' will show a solid green light
once ready. A web server will be running at 192.168.1.1:80 and it will
allow flashing a firmware package. You can cycle between rootfs_0 and
rootfs_1 by pressing the reset button once.
Root password:
With the vendor web UI create a backup of your settings and download the
archive to your computer. Within the archive in the file
/etc/shadow replace the password hash for root with that of a password you
know. Restore the configuration with the vendor web UI and you will have
changed the root password.
SSH access:
You might need to enable the SSH service for LAN interface as by default
it's enabled for WAN only.
Installing OpenWrt:
With the vendor web UI, or from the U-Boot recovery UI, install the
OpenWrt factory image. Alternatively, ssh to the device and use
sysupgrade -n from cli.
Finalize by installing the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to get a fully
functioning system.
Reverting to the vendor firmware:
Boot with OpenWrt initramfs image
- Remove volumes rootfs_0, rootfs and rootfs_data and create vendor
volumes.

to the partitions in openwrt
and write them to flash,
after gzip decompression.
After writing to the firmware partitions,

- WLAN (2.4G) is the same as the label, e.g. xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:1C
- WLAN (5G) is the same as WAN, e.g. xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:1E
UART:
- is available via the pin holes on the board
- From inner to outer pin: TX, RX, GND, VCC
- Do NOT connect VCC
- Settings: 3.3V, 115200, 8N1
GPIO:
- There are two LEDs: Red (GPIO 3) and White (GPIO 4)
- There are two buttons: Reset (GPIO 8) and WPS (GPIO 10)
Migration to OpenWrt:
- Download the migration image from the Cudy website (it should be available as soon as OpenWrt officially supports the device)
- The migration image is also available here until a image is provided by Cudy: https://github.com/RolandoMagico/openwrt-build/releases/tag/M1300_Build_20240222
- File: openwrt-ramips-mt7621-cudy_m1300-v2-squashfs-flash-signed.bin
- Connect computer to LAN (bottom connector) and flash the migration image via OEM web interface
- In the migration image, LAN and WAN are swapped. Computer must be connected to the other port after flashing
- OpenWrt is now accessible via 192.168.1.1
- After flashing an up to date OpenWrt image, LAN and WAN settings are again the same as in the OEM firmware
- So use the other connector again
Revert back to OEM firmware:
- Set up a TFTP server on IP 192.168.1.88 and connect to the LAN port (lower port)
- Provide the Cudy firmware as recovery.bin in the TFTP server
- Press the reset button while powering on the device
- Recovery process is started now
- When recovery process is done, OEM firmware is accessible via 192.168.10.1 again
General information:
- No possibility to load a initramfs image via U-Boot because there is no option to interrupt U-Boot

ramips: fix reading mac address for hiwifi hc5962
The spaces in variables have been stripped since commit 551e04f3c9c0
("base-files: strip space and tab characters from ASCII mac address"),
resulting "Vfac_mac " matches nothing. Fix the issue by removing the
space at end.
