Teltonika image

[5UP3RR3D]

Has anyone tried OMR on a teltonika device? These network devices run on a modified version of openWRT. The RUTXR1 has two SIMs+ 5x RJ45 (1x SFP) - I think it would be a hardware device that fits perfectly with OMR

[Ysurac]

Slow CPU and small memory: Quad Core ARM Cortex A7 717 MHz and 256Mo RAM Can work, but for a more than 300€ product you can only get a really slow speed with OpenMPTCProuter.

Teltonica routers don't talk to their SIM cards simultaneously, they hardware switch (slowly) between the cards and only have one modem. They usually have a WAN input though.

[highfreq]

Depends on wich model, i think rutx12 has 2 modems, cpu are the real prob, very slow.

[5UP3RR3D]

Thanks! Looks like Teltonika builds expensive uncool hardware... So I give Supermicro a shot and run it on x86 64bit Intel Atom with 4GB Ram first test - 1x copper wired + 4x LTE = 400Mbit down/ 140Mbit up stable Hetzner Cloud VPS - should be enough for three 4Mbit streams!

Any chance to have this on an RUTX12? This one looks very promising with it´s two independent modems.

[oliver2221]

Rutx12 should work I think - S.A.NE (Simple Aggregation of NEtworks) by Bondix Intelligence <- uses RUTx12 .. I am very interested in getting this work and have hardware (rut) and server with bandwidth if any one want to help getting work - I would happy sponsor hardware and $ if needed. thanks

[Ysurac]

This can work but still same CPU, a "Quad-core ARM Cortex A7, 717 MHz" with "256MB" RAM, so you can't expect a good speed with that. Maybe same result as a RPI3 with some luck if there is hardware AES.

[dougle03]

No HW AES on a Raspberry Pi.

[Ysurac]

I know, but maybe on RUTx12, it's why I said that speed can be near RPI3 even if it's an ARM A7 717Mhz CPU...

what do you need to find out? I have one in the office (rutx12)

[Keksstar]

Sure, I see the point that you say it´s slow... But isn´t it worth trying out? I see this one as a good lunch box with all needed features... two Sim Modems, multiple Ethernetports...

[Ysurac]

If someone send me one, or the money to buy one (really not cheap : https://www.amazon.fr/Teltonika-802-11ac-W125768412-Ethernet-Tabletop/dp/B08C56GGV2/ ), I can try to add official support.

[oliver2221]

@Ysurac let me know how to send you funds. I am UK based, sending you electronics is more hassle then money (thanks Brexit ..) (have messaged you on LinkedIn).

[highfreq]

Have one here too, would be great to use it. It would substitute 1 x raspberry, 2 modems, a switch and a bec. Actually would cost less than my current raspberry implementation and would be more compact.

[Ysurac]

Thanks to @oliver2221, I'm now working on RUTX11 official support.

[oliver2221]

Thanks to @oliver2221, I'm now working on RUTX11 official support.

..x12 ;)

[highfreq]

Great to hear, let us know if we can be of any help. We have an X11 here too if is needed.

[highfreq]

@Ysurac do you have any idea if it'll work on the RUTX14 too? It is same hardware as X12, just CAT12 modems. CPU, memory, is all the same.

EDIT just looked better and X14 has only 1 modem, so i guess is similar to X11, just faster.

[oliver2221]

x12 looks best of the shelf balance for a cellular bonding option. as nice and compact as well. 2x modems both active.

[oliver2221]

I am looking for a compact industrial single board cpu + 2x pci-e slots for 2x 3/4/5G modems.

[Ysurac]

@highfreq Resulting image will (at least should) support all RUTX devices. I'm working on it, now I need to receive the device, should be tomorrow...

[highfreq]

That is great!!! I'll use the rutx11 too. Any idea roughly if it'll take 1 months or 1 year for a beta?

[Keksstar]

This is awesome! Do you have an PayPal Account? Would like to step in with some Euros for your development. :-)

By the way: We should reopen is issue.

[highfreq]

@Ysurac wondering if the usb port on the RUTX series will support an external 4G dongle. It looks like there is a lot of interest for this porting.

[Ysurac]

@highfreq no idea, I still don't received it. Wait a few days ;)

[highfreq]

@Ysurac didn't mean to put any pressure, was just wondering the amplitude of the job :)

[Keksstar]

Thanks! Donated ;-)

Thanks for your effort in this project!

@Keksstar https://www.paypal.com/donate/?business=HPXWV8QZE7KG6&no_recurring=0&currency_code=EUR

@highfreq no idea, I still don't received it. Wait a few days ;)

[highfreq]

@Ysurac will try to wait few days ;)

Thank you again for your great work.

[Ysurac]

Some news: I'm working on it, image is not working for now but teltonika reset button is working :) I hope to have a bootable image this week end, then I will need to test it and add other functions like GPS.

[highfreq]

Great!!! Are you working on porting latest dev version or latest stable?

[oliver2221]

@Ysurac I have ordered 1 more RUTX12 (they are quite cheap in uk found it under £350). I will have it running in our setup so you / we can test. I have a leased line here 1gig fibre we can spin up VM for the server side as well.

[Ysurac]

This take more time than expected... I'm still working on it. I would like to have something clean, but it's not so easy without using a serial console, I may need to find a way to connect to internal serial port. @highfreq I work on dev branch, so this will be in next beta release and next release.

[highfreq]

Hope you don't give up :)

Thank you!!!!

[Keksstar]

Don't rush... development takes time... personally I've expected the first alpha-release in 2-3 months. It's nothing that is done in short time. Take your time... the more time it needs, the better it will get.

[highfreq]

@Ysurac did you make any progress? Just curious not rushing :)

[Ysurac]

@highfreq I can boot OpenMPTCProuter on RUTX12, now I try to make this clean and I will push on git. Then I will add modems/gps/... drivers and everything that is needed.

[highfreq]

That is great, do you have to write drivers or is an easier task to add modems, gps.......................? Any chance the USB port will support a usb modem?

Thank you for making this happen!!!

[Ysurac]

Should be easy to add, at least for modems. USB port will support USB modem and everything that OpenMPTCProuter already support on USB.

[highfreq]

Great thanks, i am not really interested in gps so i'll test it as soon as it'll support modems if you make a beta avail :)

[Ysurac]

There is now a first working image (should work if I didn't forget to commit a file): https://download.openmptcprouter.com/develop/5.4/rutx/targets/ipq40xx/generic/ Nothing is tested and there is some problems for now: can't be updated for now (I need to rename the image to factory and create the sysupgrade without teltonika metadata, not a problem), modem not yet tested, gps no idea if working or not, crypto not tested,... LAN port is the WAN port. The image is in fact not working correctly: problem with the overlayfs. I'm working on it

[highfreq]

@Ysurac thank you very much, will test tomorrow. Do we load image on teltonika trough the usual upsate page of teltonika router? Wich is the correct file to load, in case there is something special to do, would you care give little explanation?

thanks in advance,

Corrado

p.s. read your comment on it not working, will wait to install it until news.

[Ysurac]

@highfreq the issue is fixed now. I'm recompiling an image. *factory* image can be used via teltonika update page.

[highfreq]

Ok great, will load it tomorrow.

Thanks!!!

[highfreq]

@Ysurac what vps image is best to use with rutx release? Can you link it please?

[Ysurac]

Ad it's develop branch, it need develop VPS script: wget -O - http://www.openmptcprouter.com/server-test/debian10-x86_64.sh | sh

[highfreq]

Thank you!!!!

[highfreq]

Tried now flashing my RUTX11 with file openmptcprouter-v0.59beta3-5.4-r0+16328-f441be3921-ipq40xx-generic-teltonika_rutx-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

RUTX11 told me it is not a supported format file after uploading it to the router.

Don't know if i am supposed to update to latest teltonika before loading your firmware.

[Ysurac]

You need to use latest firmware release, and no idea if this work on RUTX11. I also said that you need to use factory image, not sysupgrade.

[highfreq]

@Ysurac Sorry Ysurac but didn't see factory image......where is it?

Is it this file?

openmptcprouter-v0.59beta3-5.4-r0+16328-f441be3921-ipq40xx-generic-teltonika_rutx-initramfs-fit-uImage.itb

the only bin in there is the sysupgrade
