Hi guys,
just got my mirouter (with hdd - bcm4709) about a week ago,
and then... *bam* not compatible with Unifi due to lack of VLAN tagging
didn't check the spec before bough it ... since it was OpenWRT based I though I'll be safe... who know .... haih

After that I went to google abit and found out you could actually do vlan tagging in CLI,
enabled the SSH daemon then login .... totally no idea how to configure it
read up abit ... sounds like /etc/config/network should be the 1 to "manual adjust"
now the content read something like below


restart network by running /etc/init.d/network restart ... check the log... still timeout for PADO packet
tried diff configuration ... still the same... and apparently xiaomi remove alot of common command like 'swconfig', 'modprobe' ...etc... where most online tutorial will ask you to swconfig dev ethXXX and modprobe the 8021q ..
btw, checked the dmesg ... 802.1Q VLAN blah is there ... but when i lsmod cannot find anything like that...does it matter?

hope any OpenWRT sifu can give some advice on this.
and other OpenWRT user (especially broadcom chip) can you post your /etc/config/network here?

thanks in advance.

whats your 0bjective to use vlan tagging in the first place?

http://www.firewall.cx/networking-topics/v...an-tagging.html

isn't unifi required your wan port to be vlan tagged @ 500 in order to connect ?

Why not used back tm unifi router do as bridge mode then at mirouter dial by pppoe ?

I think you really need to configure the 802.1Q to the interface and tag it as vlan 500. Im not sure how to do it in the openWRT

its for unifi HSI, VoIP and IPTV service

thanks zzsub, finally some useful comment

for other OpenWRT user, can you share your /etc/config/network file? thanks

Have you tried this?
http://klseet.com/index.php/rt-n13u-b1/rt-...-b1-unifi-setup

Maybe you need to do this on another router then get the /etc/config/network or wait someone to help you

blacktubi:
they don't have the vlan option in the Web UI
therefore I need to SSH and manual edit the /etc/config/network file see if can work the magic ....

if u able to do it pls export out the configuration file.. i might wanna get one too

here's the /etc/config/network (from 0.7.68 dev. firmware)
check line with start with ## for my failed attempts



can't connect to unifi at this moment

option port 0(Wan port) must be in vlan 500, have you tried that?

amirsubhi:
tried that.... didn't work
I'm suspecting the problem more than edit the /etc/config/network...
perhaps need to play with the nvram settings, or broadcom default only support 0-15 VLAN id ... may need to recompile the code or something
haih

try run ls -l /proc/switch/eth0/vlan/ if possible?

some of broadcom chipset only support 4 bit vlan which is 0-15

below is my network config.

# Put your custom commands here that should be executed once
# the system init finished. By default this file does nothing.

vconfig add wan 621
vconfig add wan 822
ifconfig wan.621 up
ifconfig wan.822 up
ifconfig lan1 up
brctl addbr br-voip
brctl addif br-voip wan.822
brctl addif br-voip lan1
ifconfig br-voip up
exit 0

So your xiaomi router is working perfectly with unifi?

Thanks for sharing

Wait what you need extra setup to use unifi? I thought just dial up pppoe?

you need to setup vlan tagging of vlan id 500 for internet, and vlan 600 for hypptv.

I just did some research. Actually you can barely find any openwrt firmware or dd-wrt firmware. Good luck on that

you can refer to here for some suggestions(although it is a bit dated by now): http://klseet.com/index.php/replacement-option-summary

Hehe i only want xiaomi router. Im getting xiaomi router mini and flash pandorabox openwrt

any luck?

try refer here... http://thejimmahknows.com/multiple-access-...g-openwrtpart1/

to critters, your link doesn't help becos this router doesn't have the GUI for switch according to thread starter.

I think the first thing to do is to find the port no.
port 0, 1,2,3,4,5. Need to verify which port is CPU port, some switch is port 5, some is port 0, without this info it is not possible to get the tagged and untagged correctly.
Is this switch controller used in other openwrt compatible router, if yes try to find the corresponding port no first. From there only we can start testing on tagged and untagged port.

So was there any successful configs yet ?

hahah I bricked my router when flashing third party firmware ....
their official forum (in chinese) doesn't really helpful, if you bash their product some of the nasty moderator will delete your thread and/or ban u.
so far no response on the official forum, I'm checking on other router modding forum.... they suggest I use the TTL/jtag cable to connect or even remove the flash rom and flash it ...
i'm not a hardware person so temporary put that on-hold until I found someone who could jtag for me

may found a solution tho, I'm now running tomato firmware on another router, able to vlan tag WAN port and no problem connect to Unifi
if my router ever come back to life, I know where to get a modded tomoto firmware for xiaomi r1d, and should be able to connect to unifi

Sorry wasn't follow this topic for awhile ....

mghong:
thanks for the commands, but xiaomi router doesn't come with vconfig command .... should be default to broadcom chipset but their "customization" restrain DIY fun... darn it

Have you try the latest Chaos Calmer. Seem to support Xiaomi Mini and brcm47xx chipset.
