Banana Pi BPI-WiFi5 Router with Siflower SF19A2890S + AN8855R design

Banana Pi BPI-Wifi5 Router use Siflower SF19A2890S and AN8855R Gigabit switch chip design. the It is a high performance wireless router for small and micro businesses, homes and other networking environments.

BPI-Wifi5 Router dual-band wireless router, 2.4G 2T2R, 5.8G 2T2R coexist at the same time. The use of four omnidirectional high-gain antennas, with strong signal penetration and wider coverage, which makes the already strong signal more powerful, data transmission is also smoother. MU-MIMO multi-device transceiver technology has low latency and multiple devices are stably connected simultaneously, thus ensuring a good experience for multiple devices.

BPI-Wifi5 Router adopts the national silicon Chang chip SF19A2890S +AN8855R (Gigabit switch chip) solution, providing gigabit network interface, 1 gigabit WAN port and 3 gigabit LAN ports, supporting 2.4G and 5G, wireless transmission rate of 1200Mbps; Supports rich software features, providing the ideal high-performance product for small and micro businesses and families.

Banana Pi Work closely with Siflower to make this product a fully open source wireless routing product.

Key Features

  • Supports a maximum 1.2Gbps wireless rate with full gigabit ports

  • supports IEEE802.11a /b/g/n/ac

  • Supports 4x5 dBi external omnidirectional high-gain antennas

where can I find a factory flash image?

I have seen this, of course, but there is no ’ System Image’.

I noticed there is a system image now. thanks.

However, it seems different, it doesn’t show the MAC address:

Here a few more details:

On a new Router the MAC address gets displayed:

Also, on the new router the LED changes from red to blue after booting. Using your image it stays red.

The timestamps from the syslog are:
