IceG firmware for ZTE MF286D (OpenWrt SNAPSHOT / LuCI Master)

Hi 🙂, If someone wants to try Openwrt without wasting time on a long configuration, you can upload my image. https://github.com/4IceG/ZTE-MF286D I am buildin...

Hi IceG

as i've said on eko, i'm trying to add your plugin to my MF289 build.
I've created under openwrt base dir the directory files/etc/config and put inside:

3ginfo
atinout
sms_tool

But looks like that these file are ignored, and on the image there are default configs.

What's wrong?

Thx in advance!

Hi @stich86
This method must work because I use it myself. Set everything up as it is supposed to be and use WinSCP to compare files from root/etc/config/3ginfo and files/etc/config/3ginfo.

Similarly for the other setup files:
etc/config/sms_tool
etc/config/atinout

stich86

IceG

only difference for 3ginfo is the tty port.

the one inside the package it's empty, while the one into files/etc/config has "/dev/ttyUSB1", but when i'm installing the image on the router (without retains settings) it starts with "/dev/ttyUSB0" 🙁

IceG

@stich86 Copy yourself the contents of this settings file from the router, maybe something has moved wrong or the file has edit marks in windows and does not recognize it correctly.

IceG

i think the problem is the file set_3ginfo_port.sh, this will override the configuration on the 3ginfo..

Is it right?

EDIT: ok i think the problem is missing comgt package, so all stuff point to ttyUSB0. Now i'm building the image with comgt inside and check if it's working or not.. let you know in the next few minutes 🙂

Yes script is supposed to detect ports and change settings, but I compile images for myself for the devices (Linksys WRT1200AC & ZTE MF286D) and in both cases it remembers the selected settings copied to the files folder, so it's not the script's fault (I think) because it doesn't change anything for me.

You can remove the script for a test and see how the settings behave.

stich86

IceG it's the comgt missing package.
Now custom properties are correctly parsed.

Still have an issue, looks like the new version of 3ginfo-lite cannot get information from WAN.

Any suggestion?

Using either wwan or wwan0 doesn't report any info

EDIT: fixed.. it wants wwan not wwan0

Hi IceG, I tried with another italian provider (Postemobile, that uses Vodafone BTS) and there is some problem with MCC/MNC

MCC MNC: 222 10
int(CellID/256) --> yyyyy

https://lteitaly.it/it/internal/map.php#bts=222undefined.yyyyy
It should point to:

Hi @kabubi
OK, thanks for reporting the bug I will fix it with a new compilation.

IceG

@kabubi New build is now available 🙂.

Openwrt is constantly changing and whether or not I want my packages need / will need to be updated.

IceG
Thank you IceG, it works now!

@IceG hi. i want to know if with you release of wrt its working zerotier? 10x.

IceG

niceguy12

Hi @niceguy12 , I don't use this package, I didn't install it, so I won't answer this question except that You have to check for yourself 🙂.

Hi IceG, is topenvpn available in your firmware?
I see luci-openvpn but it seems kmod-tun is not installed and can't be installed via update:

The installed version of package kernel is not compatible, require 5.10.139-1-954964c0… while 5.10.139-1-5ea08bd4… is installed.

And openvpn binary is not present.

Thanks, Kabubi.

IceG

Hi @kabubi
I made a new compilation add kmod-tun, I hope it will not change soon and the packages can be installed.

kabubi

IceG
Thank you so much IceG, I successfully installed openvpn, still have errors in installing vpn-policy-routing, would you be so kind to tell me how to generate a MF286D image myself from openwrt source?

Hi @kabubi
You can start with this topic, google translator will come in handy
https://eko.one.pl/?p=openwrt-kompilacja

Here are also my older sources, ready to be compiled right away when the system is prepared.

Grazie mille Stich86!

Hello everyone,
first of all thanks IceG for the great work you did, you made the use of this router an "out of the box" experience with all the plugins you created. Thanks a lot 🙂

So, I am here for a problem that I had using your firmware. Some weeks ago I tried to install some packages from the regual OpenWrt repositories, but when installing I got an error saying that the kernel version was not compatible with the one expected by the packages requested. Unfortunately I don't have the precise message I was presented, as I had to install the official firmware from OpenWrt to use the packages I needed.

Do you know about this issue?

Thanks a lot again for your great work!

stich86

iv82 that's a problem of snapshot build.
Kernel modules cannot be installed from original repos, you should build your own version and add custom kernel modules 🙂

Hi @iv82 🙂
I build images from the Master which has good (I can add something to the image that is still being tested, but has nice functionality) and bad sides (frequent changes in the source, kernel version).

There are 3 ways to do this:
1) Using regular OpenWrt with my repository added (which gives partial functionality with my images).
2) Installing packages right after my compilation, then there is a good chance of source compatibility.
3) Providing packages from my build in my repository. (that would be the best solution, I just don't know if enough packages are being built with my compilation.)
