Flashing via U-Boot
NOTE: Serial connection and configured TFTP server needed!
- After compiling firmware successfully, move
bin/ramips/openwrt-ramips-rt305x-hw550-3g-squashfs-sysupgrade.binfile into your TFTP server's directory. - Then rename firmware to something shorter, for example
rt3052f.bin(the file name must be shorter than 32 symbols). - Connect serial port to device (speed is 57600 8N1).
- When you power on device, and see U-Boot log, immediately push “2” once.
You will see this message:
2: System Load Linux Kernel then write to Flash via TFTP. Warning!! Erase Linux in Flash then burn new one. Are you sure?(Y/N)
- Push “y”, and enter: device IP, then TFTP server's IP, and then openwrt's firmware file name:
Please Input new ones /or Ctrl-C to discard
Input device IP (10.10.10.123) ==:10.10.10.123
Input server IP (10.10.10.3) ==:10.10.10.3
Input Linux Kernel filename () ==:rt3052f.bin
If TFTP server installed correctly, the firmware would be downloaded at ~30 seconds. Then it will be flashed into device (It will take about 2 minutes).

Upgrade to 64MB SDRAM
To upgrade to 64MB SDRAM you need to flash a Ralink Bootloader that initialises 64MB of RAM and flash OpenWrt to the system. The original bootloader only initialises 32MB of SDRAM and the original Aztech Firmware only utilises 32MB of SDRAM as well. You can either compile the Bootloader by downloading Aztech's GPL SDK or flash a bootloader that initialises 64MB of SDRAM shared online. http://www.mediafire.com/?q25zlw2mckn8l01

Flashing the Ralink Bootloader
NOTE: Serial connection and configured TFTP server needed! If you flash wrongly you risk bricking the entire device!
- Download or compile the Ralink Bootloader
- Then rename Bootloader to something shorter, for example “RT3052F_64MB.bin” (the file name must be shorter than 32 symbols).
- Connect serial port to device (speed is 57600 8N1).
- When you power on device, and see U-Boot log, immediately push “9” once.
You will see this message:
9: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via TFTP. Warning!! Erase Boot Loader in Flash then burn new one. Are you sure?(Y/N)
- Push “y”, and enter: device IP, then TFTP server's IP, and then bootloader file name:
Please Input new ones /or Ctrl-C to discard
Input device IP (10.10.10.123) ==:10.10.10.123
Input server IP (10.10.10.3) ==:10.10.10.3
Input Uboot filename () ==:RT3052F_64MB.bin
If TFTP server installed correctly, the firmware would be downloaded at ~5 seconds. Then it will be flashed into device (It will take about 30 seconds).

To remove the “*** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment” message
Boot into the bootloader command line interface by pressing “4”.
Then type saveenv in the prompt to overwrite the boot environment variables from the original bootloader.
This will correct the error in the checksum.
