Known Good Firmware Versions

03/23 - Features working Client Bridge mode.

03/10 - Features working Client mode.

02/18

If you wanna try out one of the beta releases, the above Fonera DD-WRT beta firmware versions seem to be most recommended in the forums / have least buggy features. As of writing the latest Fonera DD-WRT version was 04/11.

Flashing of a LaFonera

To flash your Fonera with DD-WRT for the first time, follow the Initial Flashing guide.

To upgrade the DD-WRT firmware on your Fonera, follow the Upgrade Flashing guide.


Building DD-WRT for the LaFonera from Source

Downloading the sources via SVN

svn co svn://svn.dd-wrt.com/DD-WRT DD-WRT will download the complete source-files in a directory called DD-WRT.

Please note that this is a very large download, so be prepared that it might take a while.

Compiling

the makefile you need for this task is src/router/Makefile.ar531x which simply can be called by make -f Makefile.ar531x all the sources should be within the svn, but i was not able yet to check if everything is compileable. if a third party is able to test this i will give him advices if he has troubles. (the last time this worked good together with "Tornado")


Update: When trying to compile using that makefile, the following is returned,

total@C-Dog:~/DD-WRT$ make -f Makefile.ar531x

make: Makefile.ar531x: No such file or directory

make: *** No rule to make target `Makefile.ar531x'. Stop.

comment: change to src/router as written in the instructions.

Todo List for the LaFonera DD-WRT Firmware

Bugs/AddOns:

  • Changelog file. (Which is more "non-programmer" friendly)
  • Universal Repeater mode
  • SD/MMC kernel module for LaFonera SD-Card hack - (SD/MMC Driver)
  • FTP-Server,Bit-Torrent-Client
  • Adding VPNC
  • Fix Wiviz- and Site Survey|Site Survey works if you are in client mode, but wont join a network listed.
    • Even when a network is joined, the fonera is still unable to get internet access without manual IP and gateway settings.BurnDuck 10:53, 7 Apr 2007 (CEST)
  • Webinterface "Applications" ->QoS has 4 Ethernetports to adjust Ethernet Port Priority [The LaFonera has only one Ethernet Port...;)
  • QoS (or Bandwith limiting for Hotspots)
  • Web upgrading: Sometimes the lafoner won't boot up after the upgrade.
    • I upgrade all the versions via the Web interfaces and I never had this problem.Microbug 13:11, 5 Apr 2007 (CEST)

Fixed:

  • Wireless > Advanced Settings not available in the Fonero build. Would be great if the Transmission Rate could altered somehow.
  • jffs2
  • Fix MAC-Cloning Feature
  • Mac address blocking
  • X-Link Kai - kaid
  • Fix gpio driver (no pins toggling or readable)
  • Restore the firmware-configuration data
  • Enable WLAN LED
  • WPA-PSK and TKIP (didn`t work with Windows XP)
  • Backup the firmware-configuration data
  • WDS Repeating
  • Reset button
  • Web flashing & upgrading (from this version to future)
  • Virtual interface if deleted from webconfig is NOT taken down and removed
  • Fix creation and erasing of Virtual Interfaces
  • pppoe (message that it is no mips binary)
  • Fix wireless security, mac addresses for filtering turn into zeros in table
  • Activate encryption for Virtual Interfaces - BS: always worked, see security page tab
  • Fix Lan/Wan interface, when connected wired LaFonera is inaccessible - BS: just disable internet connection setup and lan will be assigned to the bridge
  • Wireless Client Bridged mode (wired PC in the same subnet).
  • and much more...
  • Short description of changes made on the source of DD-WRT

Wishlist

  • Can someone explain how to configure FON chillispot with double SSID, DHCP on virtual SSID eth 0.1, private/public isolation and iptable rules just like LaFonera itself?
  • Can someone compile a version with DD-WRTs VoIP support SIP Express Router SER?
    • (Kilhak| Remember that the Fonera has only 183MHz and 16MBRAM!)
  • Enable SIP Express Router or Milkfish.org support (OpenWrt edition), so each LaFonera can switch SIP phone calls.
    • (Kilhak| Remember that the Fonera has only 183MHz and 16MBRAM!)
  • Changelog for each build
  • guides to 1)set up and acess the jffs partition 2) install ipkgs on the jffs and how to run them 3)set up cifs or samba to store captures packets with aircrack and to install ipkgs to mounted cifs share
  • Can someone make a tutorial here how to make Xlink Kai work with a La Fonera?
  • Universal Repeater Mode: We can make use of the advantage of fonera, small and battery powering, to develop a portable wifi repeater on the go, isn't it nice? ;-)
  • Working VLANs, currently discards all incoming tags. --Neffs
