Installation

Do not 30/30/30 reset ARM routers! Use the GUI Factory Defaults reset.

  • DO NOT USE THE ROUTER DATABASE!
  • Use builds in the netgear-r7000P directory (some are missing the factory-to-dd file)
  • Initial flash: GUI reset then flash factory-to-dd-wrt.chk (BS) or dd-wrt.K3_R7000P.chk (Kong)
  • Upgrade: netgear-r8000-webflash.bin (BS) or dd-wrt.v24-K3_AC_ARM_R7000P.bin (Kong)
  • Reset after upgrade not usually required, but if you have issues, reset and manually set up first.

NOTE: The R7000P build target currently uses the r8000, so the webflash is named as such
Where do I download firmware? & forum build threads for build recommendations

  • Kong builds are deprecated but backup website is linked here too.
  • Also see the Peacock announcement for historical information

The R7000P is misidentified as R6400v1 in builds 36816 up to 37715, so users should avoid them.

Disable LEDs

In the GUI, go to Admin->Commands and save the following as a Startup Script, then reboot:

#!/bin/sh
#
for i in 2 3 8 9 10; do gpio enable $i ; done
for i in 11 12 13; do gpio disable $i ; done
et robowr 0x0 0x18 0x1ff
et robowr 0x0 0x18 0x0
et robowr 0x0 0x1a 0x0

This can alternatively be ran manually (line by line or separated by ';') from telnet/ssh/Commands Reference: dcglabs' forum post

Forum

Do not use the Tathagata build.
