How-to

How to

Flash OpenWrt via vendor web UI, TFTP or serial per the OpenWrt Table of Hardware page

Follow the specialist sources linked on this page. If this path is a jailbreak, unlock, or flash, the specialist wiki is the how-to — we do not copy those steps here.

Notes

OpenWrt current release 25.12.2, target ramips.

FreshTomato only supports Broadcom chipsets, so it does not cover this MediaTek B1.

Check the exact hardware revision on the label before flashing.
