Cześć,

Zakładam temat dla tych, którzy jak ja spędzili godziny na próbie wgrania Openwrt do Google Nest ac-1304 (Google WiFi)

Instrukcja na stronie poniżej jest niejasna.
https://openwrt.org/toh/google/wifi#installing_openwrt

Generalnie:
1. Wgrać stock recovery googla
2. Nie podłączać do internetu
3. Wgrać openwrt z USB (ale nie z pliku tylko na USB należy przenieść obraz np "dd" lub ether)

Poniżej kroki, które zadziałały u mnie.
To ze strony https://www.reddit.com/r/openwrt/commen … ogle_wifi/

Wklejam też jej treść tak na wszelki wypadek:

Experience booting/using OpenWRT on Google Wifi 'puck' AC-1304 mesh routers

Getting it running was a bit of an adventure so I decided to write this all down here to get indexed by search engines in some way if I'm too lazy to get an account over on the OpenWRT wiki and clear up some of the info on the wiki page.

In short, it seems to be important to re-flash the latest provided recovery firmware before attempting to boot OpenWRT. You may also have to avoid connecting it to the network after this recovery re-flash.

Google mesh routers purchased at a thrift store, do not know which version of the stock firmware that they came to me with. I do have three still completely stock, so if somebody can tell me how to prevent them from upgrading and check, I will.

Using the flashing method starting here, could put router into Developer Mode (purple light) and attempt to get it to boot off of USB - activity light on the USB drive was going, but after a short period, it would reboot, and flash blue and then go back into the purple dev-mode flashing. Looked like it was essentially refusing to boot.

Took USB drive (a different one, but same model as OWRT USB) and flashed it with the latest recovery firmware provided from Google, using the provided directions - I simply dd-ed the .bin file onto the USB, and then followed the factory reset directions. Once it went back to pulsing blue, I checked that the setup network was up and it showed up in the Google Home app, but did NOT plug it into any network cable.

Immediately after verifying it was back in 'stock' functioning order, I went to flash OpenWRT. Booting off of the USB worked perfectly fine!

Connected to laptop, scp-ed the .bin file over, did the two dd commands to install it, then disconnected my hub and then rebooted using just the normal PSU. Device flashed blue briefly, then dev-mode purple for some 10-15 seconds upon reboot, then booted off of the EMMC - which now contains OpenWRT. No lights after it boots.

Hope this helps someone, now or three years from now ^^

edit 10 days later for posterity: Pretty stable so far.
