A deep modification of U-Boot 1.1.4 bootloader sources for MIPS-based routers with Qualcomm/Atheros SoCs, adding features like a web fail-safe recovery mode, network console, and writable environment variables. It supports devices from TP-Link, D-Link, Netgear, ZyXEL, and Belkin.
Use cases
- recover a bricked router via web fail-safe mode
- flash firmware on a TP-Link router with TFTP
- access router bootloader over the network with netconsole
- customize U-Boot environment variables on Atheros routers
- install OpenWrt or DD-WRT on supported routers
When to avoid
- the project is no longer maintained
- your router uses a non-MIPS or unsupported SoC
- you need a modern U-Boot with upstream support
