How to create openwrt firmware for unsupported wifi routers


This explains how to create a firmware for an unsupported device you have. For example, D-Link DIR-816 A1

To get a  minimal list of files required to add a new board use this command:

#grep -lri DIR816-A1 target/

the list of files will be like:

target/linux/ramips/image/mt7620.mk
target/linux/ramips/dts/dir-816-A1.dts
target/linux/ramips/base-files/lib/ramips.sh
target/linux/ramips/base-files/lib/upgrade/platform.sh
target/linux/ramips/base-files/etc/board.d/02_network
target/linux/ramips/base-files/etc/board.d/01_leds


Edit these files to get the required configuration.

use this command to reset the make file:
touch target/linux/*/Makefile
