Hi all,
I recently got a MF286D on B14 firmware. Flashed it with Openwrt and thanks to this topic I was able to downgrade the modem to B12. Everything is working properly, thanks for the good work
Just one detail caught my attention, as others noticed the overlay looks quite small for a device with a 128NAND flash. I understood something could be done in the dts file in order to make some more space available for the Openwrt ubifs. Am I wrong in assuming everything after "mac" could be erased safely ?

At least it seems they're not required for MF286A/R models but maybe it's a different story for MF286D ? I tried to compare the mf286D dts with mf286ar but I don't understand everything. Not sure if I could use the same approach (ubiconcat?) for the MF286D. It would be awesome if someone could correct me if I'm wrong / shed some lights on the subject.
Thanks a lot!
