ASUS PL-AC56 A1

Under Construction!
This page is currently under construction. You can edit the article to help completing it.

Write a short, relevant description of the device. Include a technical overview, but avoid marketing buzzwords/useless stuff. Two to four sentences is about right. A picture is good, too. Edit the page to see how to add pictures.

Work in progress.

This paragraph will be moved to the installation how-to, once the device got supported

The complete installation needs additional steps after flashing OpenWRT, due to the PLC (Powerline) components.

Install required plc packages:

opkg update
opkg install open-plc-utils-hpavkey
opkg install open-plc-utils-modpib
opkg install open-plc-utils-plchostd
opkg install open-plc-utils-plctool

Gather the plc firmware:

Note that due to legal reasons, it is not allowed to include or enlist the plc firmware files freely,
thus you need to find it yourself. You can start here by extracting MAC-7500-v2.8.0-01-NW6__-X-CS.nvm
from the deb package:
https://update.devolo.com/linux2/apt/pool/main/d/devolo-firmware-qca7500/
After a lot of testing, I found the above particular firmware the most stable (until inclusive v 2.11.0).
Another possibility is to gather the original (and old) nvm firmware from the PL-AC56 source files from Asus.
You have then to copy the nvm firmware to let's say root directory onto the router.

Create and run plc controlling scripts:

ssh into the same directory, where you put the nvm file, let's say /root again
and copy-paste the following script and simply press Enter to run it:

plc_basic: Adding eth0.2 to br-lan

At this point you should have a fully functional device.
At full plc-enabled operation, the PLC Home LED and the Main LED will both light.
This is also how the OEM firmware is originally behaving.
Note that you can also start/stop the plc service later manually if needed:

service plc_basic <start/stop>

(Optional but recommended) Update the slave Asus device (PL-E56P) firmware:

Notes about flashing:
The main device PL-AC56 has no firmware (nvm) storage, only a
calibration file (pib), which will be copied from the dedicated plc partition.
The slave device PL-E56P has its own nvm and pib files stored
and the nvm can/should be flashed to the same version, as the parent
device, e.g. with the same file from above.
Briefly it is done first by looking up the Mac Address of the slave
device on the parent device, by looking at the station's Mac address:

plctool -i br-lan -m

If the br-lan is not including the vlan (it should), use eth0.2 instead.
Then backup the pib of the slave device:

plctool -i br-lan -p /tmp/backup.pib station_mac_address

Then flash the new firmware (nvm), together with the backed up pib:

plctool -i br-lan -N nvm_file -P /tmp/backup.pib station_mac_address

Maybe it needs a reboot too, after finished flashing:

plctool -i br-lan -R station_mac_address

Maybe it is needed to pair the devices again after this.

(Optional but recommended) Install zram-swap:

The 64MB RAM will go low pretty quickly, so it is a good idea to at least
use something like zram-swap, which pops up a swap area.

opkg update
opkg install zram-swap
