hi all
have you a time line, when OpenWrt would be supported on the GL-SFT1200 Opal
Many Thanks

No. I don’t have.
Just don’t expect it.
Why will there be no update for this device, that’s poor.
in future i will only be purchasing items with a track record of updates, especially when security updates are concerned.

Looks like it's been merged.
any chance of a Openwrt 6.6 kernel gl-inet firmware for my Opal please
Oh and looks like the SF1200 could also have support?
Awesome!
dear @alzhao please take a look, thanks!
I've built the siflower evaluation board without issue using Openwrt snapshot.
So at this point, I have three Opals, and I'm happy to test whatever beta firmware is available.
Is there any wifi driver? I haven't see this.
It's mentioned in the reference board:
Built-in 2x2 11N + 2x2 11AC WiFi radio
Both WiFi are referenced in target/linux/siflower/files-6.6/drivers/clk/siflower/clk-sf19a2890.c
332 static SF19A28_MUXDIV(muxdiv_wlan24_plf, 0x2c0, 0);
333 static SF19A28_MUXDIV(muxdiv_wlan5_plf, 0x2e0, 0);
357 [CLK_MUXDIV_WLAN24_PLF] = &muxdiv_wlan24_plf.common.hw,
358 [CLK_MUXDIV_WLAN5_PLF] = &muxdiv_wlan5_plf.common.hw,
We are on that. Hope to work out all the drivers.
In answer to your "I haven't seen this."
I emailed Siflower in August, and they advised:
We are planning to directly submit the code to the latest OpenWrt upstream for merging, supporting kernel 6.6. It is expected to be visible in about a month.
Six weeks later, Siflower have done what they were aiming to do.
We pushed for several years actually.
I am wondering if the BPI-WiFi5 coming out has helped with this:
Same chipset, in fact I have found another 4 devices suggesting that Siflower are doing well with getting this chipset out there.
Everybody helps. But we should be the first and biggest vendor using this chipset.
Oh agreed on that, just noticing that Siflower only last week updated the 18.06 SDK with the bpi dts:
you cannot buy the BPI model, only request a sample.
Any issues with me trying the evb build on my sft1200, I see the ethernet switch might be missing.
@alzhao any news, either good or bad.
Happy to test anything for the sft1200.
Sorry no news at all as the long holidy!
Understood, aware of the holiday from my contacts in Fanvil.
Any movement?
I have a BPI WiFi5 in front of me to see if I can get either it or my four Opals to build with the 6.6 kernel commits
There was still one issue not resolved. Let me check out.
