<br>
I received some more funding on the kickstarter campaign which will<br>
allow me to add support for the external PA and external LNA stuff<br>
which will bring our GPL'ed driver to the same level of hardware<br>
support of the vendor's driver.<br>
In order to do that it'd be great if you can provide some help:<br>
Please flash your router to OpenWrt or LEDE and enter a console via<br>
SSH. Then see which flash partition holds the wifi eeprom:<br>
cat /proc/mtd<br>
There is supposed to be a 'factory' partition, e.g. /dev/mtd2 or<br>
something like that. Dump that partition to /tmp<br>
dd if=/dev/mtd2 of=/tmp/factory.bin<br>
Then logout and copy that file to your workstation:<br>
scp root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/factory.<wbr>bin .<br>
(assuming the router has the IP 192.168.1.1)<br>
Then send that file (factory.bin) to me via email, so I can analyze<br>
it and see how we can auto-detect those features present on your<br>
device.<br>
<br>
I know this is some effort (flashing OpenWrt/LEDE and then reverting<br>
to the factory firmware, loosing your configuration on the way and all<br>
that) but I would be a great help and most likely improve the bad wifi<br>
signal situation on OpenWrt/LEDE within the next days.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
