Hi, I am adding support for this device to OpenWrt. This AP requires two special BDFs to get the Wi-Fi PHYs working (correctly). The bmi-board- id='s would clash with one of the the IPQ401X AP-DK boards because QCA doesn't provide special IDs for customers and seems to use the AP-DK board-ids in the wifi firmware to change its behavior.
Now to the questions from the wiki page [1]:
* description for what hardware this is:
- it is a IPQ4018 based board
- one QCA40xx radio is used as 2.4GHz radio
- one QCA40xx radio is used as 5GHz radio
* origin of the board file (did you create it yourself or where you
downloaded)
- from stock firmware image
* ids to be used with the board file (ATH10K_BD_IE_BOARD_NAME in ath10k)
- QCA4019 hw1.0
+ bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16,variant=EnGenius-ENS620EXT
md5sum:
06b06ff901de575a57b054af238c1335
+ bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=17,variant=EnGenius-ENS620EXT.bin
md5sum:
7cb23e1ff21179de5c4e726552864285
* attach the actual board file (board.bin)
- The name of the files are equal to the id string in the board-2.bin
(minus the ".bin")
Kind regards,
Steve
