Top reply? Well, anyway I bought a refurbished WNDR3800 from amazon<br>
$40.00 to run cerowrt. I was hoping to get a compatible model but it<br>
turns out I got a version with model change to WNDR3800-1CHNAS which<br>
cause the firmware upload to fail gracefully. I found out about<br>
this at <a href="http://openwrt.org" target="_blank">openwrt.org</a>, see<br>
<a href="https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=49390" target="_blank">https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=49390</a><br>
<br>
The above referenced thread refers to an openwrt developer (zloop) who<br>
says he built a version with a different model string WNDR3800CH.<br>
See <a href="https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=51025" target="_blank">https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=51025</a><br>
<br>
"according to GPL fw sources the router is called "WNDR3800CH" (MODEL_NAME)<br>
<br>
so adding a line<br>
<br>
Makefile:$(eval $(call<br>
SingleProfile,Netgear,64kraw,WNDR3800CH,wndr3800ch,WNDR3700,ttyS0,115200,$$(wndr3700v2_mtdlayout),0x33373031,WNDR3800CH,"",-H<br>
29763654+16+128))<br>
<br>
and modify the WNDR3800CH model to the Multiprofile line<br>
<br>
$(eval $(call MultiProfile,WNDR3700,WNDR3700V1 WNDR3700V2 WNDR3800<br>
WNDR3800CH WNDRMAC WNDRMACV2))<br>
<br>
should create an image that can be flashed from factory firmware<br>
<br>
PS: it's all untested - no guarantee it will work<br>
<br>
feel free to test and send to the mailing list<br>
"<br>
<br>
I'm going to try patching the image header to have the model name<br>
"WNDR3800CH" and see if it will load.<br>
<br>
It would be a good idea for the developers who understand the above to<br>
add this model to the makefiles so it also gets built. I bet a lot of<br>
WNDR3800-1CHNAS series routers are out in the wild and if someone<br>
picks one up to run wrt or cerowrt they will be stymied.<br>
