 +===== Basic configuration =====

 +Set up your Internet connection, configure wireless, configure USB port, etc.
 +
 +===== Specific Configuration =====
 +==== Network interfaces ====
 +The default network configuration is:
 +^ Interface Name  ^ Description              ^ Default configuration ^
 +| br-lan (eth1.1) | LAN & WiFi bridge        | 192.168.1.1/24        |
 +| br-wan (eth0.2) | WAN bridge               | DHCP client           |
 +| vlan1 (eth1.1)  | LAN port                 | None                  |
 +| vlan2 (eth0.2)  | WAN port                 | None                  |
 +| radio0          | WiFi 2.4G (QCA9880 3x3)  | Disabled              |
 +| radio1          | WiFi 5G (QCA9880 3x3)    | Disabled              |
 +| radio2          | WiFi 2G/5G (QCA9882 1x1) | Disabled              |
 +
 +Note transfer speeds are slow on ''radio2'' as it was designed for monitoring, not for data transfers.
 +
 +==== Switch Ports (for VLANs)  ====
 +
 +OpenWrt Switch port number 1 is the LAN Ethernet port labeled ''<- ->'' on the device, number 2 is the physical network port labeled with a globe icon (WAN) on the device, and number 0 and 6 are internal connections between the switch chip and the CPU (labeled "CPU" in LuCI). Use these //switch// port numbers when specifying a VLAN's ports via the UCI (i.e., in the ''ports'' option of a VLAN's ''config switch_vlan'' section, in ''/etc/config/network'').
 +
 +By default, ''eth0'' is used for traffic to/from the ISP and ''eth1''s for traffic to/from the local network.
  
 +^ Port           ^ Switch port   ^
 +| CPU (eth0)     | 0             |
 +| LAN            | 1             |
 +| WAN            | 2             |
 +| CPU (eth1)     | 6             |

-How to connect to the Serial Port of this specific device:\\ +{{ :media:tplink:tgr1900_servo_header.jpg?400|}}
-**Insert photo of PCB with markings for serial port**+
  
-<WRAP BOX> +OnHub devices share the [[https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/hdctools/+/HEAD/docs/servo_v2.md|Servo debug header]] used on many ChromeOS systems. The debug header has a 50-pin footprint, and provides access to UART pins among many other debug-related signals. Unfortunately, this header is typically populated with a proper connector only for Google-internal boards, and the companion Servo board is only available to Google engineers. 
-FIXME //Replace EXAMPLE by real values.// + 
-</WRAP>+However, you may not be out of luck; it's technically possible to wire up your own connector, as the debug pads are still available on production systems, as highlighted on the board photo. The pinout is well documented in the [[https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/servo/chromium_os_yoshi_flex.tar.gz|"Yoshi" flex cable schematic]], and particularly its contained ''Schematic/810-10062-00_20130625_yoshi_flex_SCH_0.pdf''. In short, the relevant pins are: 
 + 
 +  15 = GND 
 +  16 = 1P8_UART2_RX 
 +  17 = 1P8_UART2_TX 
 +  18 = PP1800
  
-^ Serial connection parameters\\ for Google Onhub TP-LINK TGR1900 | EXAMPLE 115200, 8N1, 3.3V |+Skillful soldering could theoretically attach wires to these pins to bring out the 1.8V TTL UART port.
  
 +UART console is available in default software for both the stock ChromeOS firmware (once the device is in Developer Mode) and in OpenWrt.
