    ramips: add support for Afoundry EW-1200 · 9b35815f
    Francois Goudal authored
    
    This device features both a 2.4 and 5Ghz radio, and supports
    802.11a/b/g/n/ac modes.
    It has 5 Gb-Ethernet ports and a USB 3.0 host port.
    
    It is powered by the Mediatek MT7621 SoC, and the MT7602E and MT7612E wifi
    chipsets, together with 128MB of RAM and 16 MB of SPI Flash.
    
    The stock firmware is in fact based on some openwrt barrier breaker, with a
    mediatek SDK kernel, and an afoundry custom made web interface (not LuCI
    based).
    Firmware update page on the stock web interface can not accept sysupgrade
    images, it bricks the device.
    At this point, the only working solution I found was to connect to the
    serial console port (available on J4 header) and to use opkg to install
    dropbear.
    Then scp the sysupgrade file in the device's /tmp and run sysupgrade from
    console without preserving configuration files.
