 If properly connected to the flash chip, flashrom will detect one of two possible chips, and prompt for the correct one. At that point, you should be able to read the chip. Read it multiple times, and verify they are identical with md5sum. If you get unreliable readings, make sure cables to RPI from breakout board are short as possible. Soldering experience may be required.

 +Since this device has only 1 working ethernet port, you will probably want to configure it to be WAN after logging in and confirming everything works. Here's a config for 21.02 illustrating this:
 +
 +<code>
 +config interface 'loopback'
 +        option device 'lo'
 +        option proto 'static'
 +        option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'
 +        option netmask '255.0.0.0'
 +
 +config globals 'globals'
 +        option ula_prefix 'fdd8:dd71:9ca7::/48'
 +
 +config device
 +        option name 'br-lan'
 +        option type 'bridge'
 +#       list ports 'eth0' #note that eth0 is removed from lan ports.
 +        list ports 'eth1'
 +
 +config interface 'lan'
 +        option device 'br-lan'
 +        option proto 'static'
 +        option ipaddr '192.168.2.1'
 +        option netmask '255.255.255.0'
 +        option ip6assign '60'
 +
 +config device
 +        option name 'eth0'
 +        option macaddr 'yourmacaddr'
 +#per changes on notes 21.02 highlights page which
 +#explains that ifname is now name in device and some other quirks.
 +#note that list ports is only for bridge type. here you just specify name with ifname...
 +
 +config interface 'wan'
 +        option device 'eth0'
 +        option proto 'dhcp'
 +
 +</code>

 +==== Failsafe ====
 +Once openwrt is installed, you can press the reset button while the device is booting. Watching the serial output, the button can be pressed when it asks for failsafe mode. Connect to the WAN port, and configure an ip in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet to connect to the WAP at 192.168.1.1.
