 Note that when booting from the network (tftp boot), there is a race with the watchdog during early boot.  This can result in the device resetting before the kernel starts.  You may need to retry the boot several times before a successful network boot.  The same issue does not impact booting from flash, so that once OpenWrt is installed, there are expected to be no further problems. Note that when booting from the network (tftp boot), there is a race with the watchdog during early boot.  This can result in the device resetting before the kernel starts.  You may need to retry the boot several times before a successful network boot.  The same issue does not impact booting from flash, so that once OpenWrt is installed, there are expected to be no further problems.
 +===== Known Issues =====
 +The watchdog issue reference above also impacts booting from flash.  The device will eventually boot because it will reset and then automatically retry, but this may lead to length boot/reboot times.  Tracking issue:  https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/16889

 +Cable testing is supported on eth1 (physical port GE1).  TDR data collection does not currently work, a WiP patch is available via this issue: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/17077
