@JoseGoncalves , just use the generic one..
During the Green Wireless development, we used the onboard eeprom to store a unique mac address for the wl18xx..
About a year later, we discovered the wl18xx had it's own unique mac address stored internally, it could be used as long as you told the wl18xx to use 00:00:00:00:00:00.
So today, on all w18xx devices we force 00:00:00:00:00:00 and everything works great..

@RobertCNelson I remember that when I start to flash BB Green Wireless devices a couple of months ago the generic script (init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh
) did not work and I needed to use the specific one (init-eMMC-flasher-v3-bbgw.sh
). I'm going to try this again, both in Wireless and in Gateway, to see if it works now.
I've tested and confirm that both Green Wireless and Green Gateway can be flashed with the generic flasher script. Thanks @RobertCNelson
There is no flasher script specific for the Green Gateway. Wouldn't be better to have one?
I think that the script for the Green Wireless (
init-eMMC-flasher-v3-bbgw.sh
) would work (did not try it yet), with the exception of the EEPROM programming stuff, which is only called if the board's EEPROM is corrupted.BTW, SeeedStudio wiki is indicating to use the generic BBB flasher script (
init-eMMC-flasher-v3.sh
), which will not be successful on the Green Wireless and Green Gateway boards.
