notes

1. → obtain.firmware
2. → Install OpenWrt

Please check out the article Flash Layout. It contains an example and a couple of explanations.

You must set your TCP/IP v4 protocol to:

1. IP: 192.168.1.2
2. Netmask: 255.255.255.0
3. Gateway: 192.168.1.1
4. DNS: (optional, can be blank).

Then:

1. Power off the router.
2. Press reset button.
3. Keep it pressed while powering up during ~20+ seconds.
4. Acces to http://192.168.1.1 and upload binary file.
5. Wait until router reboots.

If you want to upgrade using TFTP you follow these steps (as an alternative to the above install process.

→ generic.sysupgrade

If you have already installed OpenWrt and like to reflash for e.g. upgrading to a new OpenWrt version you can upgrade using the mtd command line tool. It is important that you put the firmware image into the ramdisk (/tmp) before you start flashing.

• Browse to http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/mini/system/upgrade/ LuCI Upgrade URL
• Upload image file for sysupgrade to LuCI
• Wait for reboot

• Login as root via SSH on 192.168.1.1
• Use the following commands to upgrade.

cd /tmp/
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/brcm63xx/openwrt-F@ST2404-squashfs-cfe.bin
sysupgrade /tmp/openwrt-F@ST2404-squashfs-cfe.bin

• If sysupgrade does not support this router, use the following commands.

cd /tmp/
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/brcm63xx/openwrt-F@ST2404-squashfs-cfe.bin
mtd write /tmp/openwrt-F@ST2404-squashfs-cfe.bin linux && reboot

→ Basic configuration After flashing, proceed with this.
Set up your Internet connection, configure wireless, configure USB port, etc.

The default network configuration is:

Numbers 0-3 are Ports 1-4 as labeled on the unit, number 4 is the Internet (WAN) on the unit, 5 is the internal connection to the router itself. Don't be fooled: Port 1 on the unit is number 3 when configuring VLANs. vlan0 = eth0.0, vlan1 = eth0.1 and so on.

→ generic.failsafe

→ hardware.button on howto use and configure the hardware button(s).

The Sagem F@ST2404 has one button

Note: This will void your warranty!

• To remove the cover remove the 4 screws on the bottom pads

Photo of PCB

→ port.serial general information about the serial port, serial port cable, etc.

How to connect to the Serial Port of this specific device:

Photo of PCB with markings

On the image a 4 pin header has been soldered on the pads.

→ port.jtag general information about the JTAG port, JTAG cable, etc.

How to connect to the JTAG Port of this specific device:

Photo of PCB with markings

On the photo a cable is soldered on the exposed pads. It is a 12 pin header.

→ generic.debrick

When connected via serial port, it is possible to get a prompt from the CFE. At this state the power LED changes from green to red color and a recevery page is enabled. This page is accessible via http://192.168.1.1

From this page a new image can be flashed. Original or OpenWrt.

1. you could read about bootloader in general

1. as a beginner, you really should inform yourself about soldering in general and then obtain some practical experience!

Possible to upgrade the RAM soldering new chips and flashing a new modded bootloader

After flashing the router with OpenWrt the router was not working. e.g. No telnet access to 192.168.1.1, no Luci http access.

By connecting via a serial port you will be able to open a console. There you must execute "firstboot". After this step OpenWrt is working as expected.

Backfire 10.03.1 does not boot at all. Problem with the flash. http://downloads.openwrt.org/backfire/10.03.1/brcm63xx/openwrt-F%40ST2404-squashfs-cfe.bin

Attitude Adjustment 12.09 boots correctly after executing "firstboot". Memory is low. http://downloads.openwrt.org/attitude_adjustment/12.09/brcm63xx/generic/openwrt-F%40ST2404-squashfs-cfe.bin
