Hello, so i just got the v5.0 version of tp-link wr740n and it seems its not a 2 mb flash and 16 mb ram chinese version like stated in the wiki.
Took a look at the download page for the firmware at www.tp-link.ro and the firmware looks like a 4 mb flash variant. Here is binwalk of it: [dani@x220 Downloads]$ binwalk wr740nv5_wr741ndv5_en_3_16_9_up_boot\(150312\).bin DECIMAL HEXADECIMAL DESCRIPTION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4 0x4 TP-Link firmware header, firmware version: 3.16.9, image version: "ver. 1.0", product ID: 0x7400005, product version: 1, kernel load address: 0x80002000, kernel entry point: 0x801D74B0, kernel offset: 512, kernel length: 895122, rootfs offset: 1048576, rootfs length: 2883584, bootloader offset: 0, bootloader length: 48518 14224 0x3790 U-Boot version string, "U-Boot 1.1.4 (Mar 12 2015 - 16:40:24)" 15568 0x3CD0 uImage header, header size: 64 bytes, header CRC: 0xA334F831, created: Thu Mar 12 10:40:25 2015, image size: 33398 bytes, Data Address: 0x80010000, Entry Point: 0x80010000, data CRC: 0xC9CFC8E6, OS: Linux, CPU: MIPS, image type: Firmware Image, compression type: lzma, image name: "u-boot image" 15632 0x3D10 LZMA compressed data, properties: 0x5D, dictionary size: 33554432 bytes, uncompressed size: 95708 bytes 131588 0x20204 TP-Link firmware header, firmware version: 3.16.9, image version: "ver. 1.0", product ID: 0x7400005, product version: 1, kernel load address: 0x80002000, kernel entry point: 0x801D74B0, kernel offset: 512, kernel length: 895122, rootfs offset: 1048576, rootfs length: 2883584, bootloader offset: 0, bootloader length: 0 132096 0x20400 LZMA compressed data, properties: 0x5D, dictionary size: 33554432 bytes, uncompressed size: 2589532 bytes 1180160 0x120200 Squashfs filesystem, little endian, version 4.0, compression:lzma, size: 2344073 bytes, 566 inodes, blocksize: 131072 bytes, created: Thu Mar 12 10:48:34 2015 uncompressing the root shows the following 2.6.31 specific atheros kernel modules: ag7240_mod.ko, ath_rate_atheros.ko My question to the list is: would i manage to produce a valid firmware if i just replicate the patches from https://dev.openwrt.org/attachment/ticket/10492/tl-wr740n-v4.support.final.patch but with v5 related details added?
