Hello, i tried many times with fail, but i finally made it.
1-) You need that firmware 2.18.28 (https://bigota.miwifi.com/xiaoqiang/rom/r4ac/miwifi_r4ac_all_c4b35_2.18.28.bin)
2-) If device is bricked, use that zip to debricking while downgrade firmware. mir4ac.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/file/45dc6jhpezw290e/mir4ac.zip/file?) its tftp methode to debrick router.
3-) Than you update version to 2.18.58, you just push bin file with web interface. (http://bigota.miwifi.com/xiaoqiang/rom/r4ac/miwifi_r4ac_firmware_e9eec_2.18.58.bin)

4-)After 2.18.58 with Chinese language rom, than boot debian 10 with vmware (includes gnome desktop). And start scripting. Just same as youtube video guide. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxzEvdDWU_s&t=143s)

Important note, The address you connect to via telnet, while script finishes, and the address you log in MUST BE the same.

i figured out with that methode.

down to miwifi_r4ac_all_c4b35_2.18.28.bin
update to miwifi_r4ac_firmware_e9eec_2.18.58.bin
debian 10 with gnome for run script and login web interface same vmware host.

i tried all versions of invasion, no problem all is OK.

Thanks. Finally got this 2.18.58 on my router. but it's still not working with docker method. I am still getting this error:
Warning: the process has finished, but seems like ssh connection to the router is not working as expected.

  • Maybe your firmware version is not supported, please have a look at ........

should i must load debian on vmware and do it with that method?

Alright, so let me add this here. on this version: 2.18.58, it wasn't working (openwrtinvasion couldn't connect to the router) but i downgraded the version to 2.18.51 and boom it worked now. you can get all Chinese versions from here:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> docker run --network host -it openwrtinvasion
Router IP address [press enter for using the default 'miwifi.com']: 192.168.31.1
Enter router admin password: pars@5546@
There two options to provide the files needed for invasion:

  1. Use a local TCP file server runing on random port to provide files in local directory script_tools.
  2. Download needed files from remote github repository. (choose this option only if github is accessable inside router device.)
    Which option do you prefer? (default: 1)

router_ip_address: 192.168.31.1
stok: 79d3f70d3f345727da02c655278dfd76
file provider: local file server

start uploading config file...
start exec command...
local file server is runing on 0.0.0.0:47807. root='script_tools'
done! Now you can connect to the router using several options: (user: root, password: root)

  • telnet 192.168.31.1
  • ssh -oKexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa -c 3des-cbc -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null root@192.168.31.1
  • ftp: using a program like cyberduck
