mt76: mt7615: load EEPROMs for MT7613BE #501
Conversation
|
Tested on an EAP235-Wall v1. Tested-by: Stijn Segers foss@volatilesystems.org |
|
Have you got 20 dBm of output power on EAP235-Wall v1 ? |
|
It shows 21 dBm max, see screenshot below. No idea how to actually test that, but throughput numbers match the OEM ones - see the test results on the forum: OpenWrt master and OEM firmware v1.0.2.

@svanheule This repository is (more or less) only for backporting upstream changes to OpenWrt. Please submit mt76 patches to linux-wireless, they will eventually get backported here. |
|
@blocktronn Thanks for informing me, I wasn't aware. I'll resubmit to linux-wireless. |
EEPROM blobs for MT7613BE start with (little endian) 0x7663, which is also the PCI device ID for this device. The EEPROM is required for the radio to work at useful power levels, otherwise only the lowest power level is available. Signed-off-by: Sander Vanheule <sander@svanheule.net>

I noticed my Signed-off-by was wrong, so I updated the patch. Currently waiting for a reply from the person who suggested this change to see if I can include their Suggested-by. |
|
@svanheule How much time does it usually takes to approve? |
|
I have no earlier experience with this repository or linux-wireless, so I have no idea how long it usually takes. I submitted this patch to linux-wireless as requested, on 2 Feb: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20210202085953.9564-1-sander@svanheule.net/ |

Since this patch was merged, I'll close this pull request. |
