I<3LYN and others:

routerclub.ru seems to have their own Padavan nightly builds for the router. Link

Have anyone tried it?

nope i didn't. maybe you could try it out and let us know?

@I<3LYN

Do you provide the service to do that? PM me.

sorry i dont do that.

Kinda worried it might brick my router or something.

I'll just wait for your future builds. (Y)

kinda easy actually to build the firmware yourself
https://bitbucket.org/padavan/rt-n56u/wiki/...wToMakeFirmware
just need to get the board profile for MI-MINI since its not included as this model is not officially supported

nice thanks

hello ... any idea if this method works with the 1TB router by xiaomi as well?

I successfully flashed to padavan firmware, everything work fine.
But I find that the web interface seem buggy, switch between menu option will be unreponsive required re-login to proceed.

Nope, padavan only support Ralink SoC based router only. Broadcom based SoC commonly used in Xiaomi 1T is not supported.

How do I build for Xiaomi Mini platform?
I have followed the padavan build firmware guide, I completed the tool-chain build, I am in config now, according to padavan the config is for N56U, how do I config for xiaomi mini then?

Thanks @goolias! any clue if we have any other ways to make it work broadcom SoC? much appreciated. thanks!

No chance at all!
The creator has no interest in Broadcom based chipset.
Unless you wanna custom compile from Xiaomi source, not sure if it available.

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B8s...Z1U&usp=sharing
compiled from commit d1ac127 if anyone interested
also contains sample config and board profile for this router

MI-MINI board profile folder and content goes here: rt-n56u/trunk/configs/boards/
inside MI-MINI folder, create symlink to libc.config : ln -s ../uclibc-mipsel.config ./libc.config

Cool! Do you know how do i add our own packages into the firmware?

Hi, if you can read chinese pls refer here to use Tomato for 1st Gen xiaomi 1T router.
Strictly for 1st gen only.
You can use google translate if you dun read Chinese.
BTW, the author said after flash with Tomato firmware they can't control the fan speed, fan is always at low speed, the unit temp is running high, I mean very high!
Proceed with caution, anyway if you decide to take the plunge pls tell us your result and findings.

You can use Prometheus tool (prometheus.freize.net).
I have build one, but need to find spare MI MINI to test.

Currently using TS build firmware for my Unifi and so far running fine. Much stable than given TM Innatech RGX4400.

Hi, thanks for info. The entire site in Russian, i saw the screen shot in Russian too.
I don't read Russian, and don't understand it

You can translate the web using Google Chrome.
The script itself have dual language, Russian and English.

I've build one yesterday and successfully flashed in into my MINI MI.

cool! do u know is there anyway we can include our package into it?
