Flash instructions:
1. On OEM firmware, login to the device (typically at http://192.168.1.1) and click 'CA'
in the bottom right corner -> Connectivity -> Manual Upgrade. Alternatively, browse to
http://<router IP>/fwupdate.html.
Upgrade firmware using openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-squashfs-factory.bin image.
Optionally install on second partition, after first boot check actual partition:
fw_printenv -n boot_part
and install firmware on second partition using command in case of 2:
mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
and in case of 1:
mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel
2. Installation using serial connection from OEM firmware (default login: root, password: admin):
fw_printenv -n boot_part
In case of 2:
flash_erase /dev/mtd12 0 0
nandwrite -p /dev/mtd12 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-squashfs-factory.bin
or in case of 1:
flash_erase /dev/mtd14 0 0
nandwrite -p /dev/mtd14 openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-squashfs-factory.bin
After first boot install firmware on second partition:
mtd -r -e kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-squashfs-factory.bin kernel
or:
mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-squashfs-factory.bin alt_kernel
3. Back to the OEM firmware.
Download firmware from OEM website:
MR5500: https://support.linksys.com/kb/article/207-en/
From serial or SSH:
fw_printenv boot_part
in case of 1:
mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write FW_MR5500_1.1.2.209598_prod.img alt_kernel
else in case of 2:
mtd -r -e kernel -n write FW_MR5500_1.1.2.209598_prod.img kernel
4. Boot from USB
This allows you loading an OpenWrt image into RAM and is meant for recovery scenarios only.
Enable loading image from USB in u-boot. From serial or SSH:
fw_setenv bootusb 'usb start && usbboot &loadaddr && bootm $loadaddr'
fw_setenv bootcmd 'run bootusb; if test $auto_recovery = no; then bootipq; elif test $boot_part = 1; then run bootpart1; else run bootpart2; fi'
Copy OpenWrt initramfs image to USB:
dd bs=1M if=openwrt-qualcommax-ipq50xx-linksys_mr5500-initramfs-uImage.itb of=/dev/sda

The SPNMX56 is an ISP-branded and distributed device similar to the MX5500
with the same Wifi chips (IPQ5018 for 2.4G and QCN9074 for 5G) but has an
additional QCA8081 PHY providing a 2.5gbps ethernet WAN port.

3. Back to the OEM firmware.
Download firmware from OEM website:
Firmware for this device cannot be searched for on the Linksys website.
Instead, we'd have to use serial to intercept the URL of the firmware
while it's trying to update. Firmware is ISP specific:
Toob (UK): http://download.linksys.com/updates/20241125t080737/FW_MX56TB_1.0.1.216218_prod.img
The intention is to collect URLs for different ISPs on a wiki page.
From serial or SSH:
fw_printenv boot_part
in case of 1:
mtd -r -e alt_kernel -n write FW_MX56TB_1.0.1.216218_prod.img alt_kernel
else in case of 2:
mtd -r -e kernel -n write FW_MX56TB_1.0.1.216218_prod.img kernel
