Hello, I am new to OpenWrt and I would like to flash a Astoria networks VGV7519, aka KPN Experia Box v8, aka Arcadyan VGV7519 VRX288.
Seems to be supported... http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/arcadyan/vgv7519 But I don't see it in de list with supported hardware: http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/start It's not completely clear to me what works and what does not work. And if it's all with free drivers. And if closed firmware is needed. I like the device, because it can do very much. It even has a supported DSL modem when I understand it well. This hardware is here in the Netherlands very cheap available, because it is given away to customers for internet access by some ISP's. When somebody wants such a device, maybe I can help. When I understand it wel, I have to solder a 14-pins JTAG header on the device and use a cable to a parallel port. And then use something like UrJTAG to flash the device. Never done something like that. I don't understand which parallel port pin I have to connect with what EJTAG PIN. Has somebody here experience with an USB-to-parallel port cable? Does that work? (my computer does not have a parallel port) When I understand it well, the "OEM easy installation" is not useable because the PIN is unknown. But it could be brute-forced using the given SHA1 hash. I've tried all PIN's from 1-6 digits (made the sha1 hash out of it, and compared it with the given hash). But no luck. Maybe I will try more digits. It's not clear to me if the "UART method" is working, it would be much easier I think. Do I need a RS232-to-TTL cable, or is this only for the UART method? And if yes, is an USB serial to TTL cable an idea? http://www.adafruit.com/product/954 Or is it an idea to use another device to connect? I have an Arduino and an RPi2 here.
