Why did Banana Pi community develop this product:

wifi6 has been widely popularized in the market, and the telecom operators have large-scale applications. The current router is provided as a finished product, and users cannot add their own special applications on it. The wifi6 board developed by Banana Pi community. In close cooperation with chip manufacturers, apart from the industry and telecom carrier market, we adopt a relatively open source approach and open complete code, so that users can do a variety of self-defined applications on the router. Promote the development of the Internet of Things market

In this issue you can see the huge limitations of the WiFi Driver (which is closed source).

Seem to be unable to complete opkg update as the specified target folder does not exist. Any fix for this?

I have the same problem. Any help please?

Because OpenWRT offical Software can’t support Triductor TR6560 + TR5220 wifi SOC, you need modify the opkg’s configuration file.

file: /etc/opkg/distfeeds.conf remove the below two lines from configuration file:

  src/gz tgp_core https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.0/targets/tr6560/generic/packages

  src/gz tgp_base https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.0/packages/arm_cortex-a9/base

Thanks. That seems to get the lists refreshed but kmod-wireguard is missing which is a required dependency for Wireguard. Is this firmware capable of running Wireguard?

the BSP repo: GitHub - BPI-SINOVOIP/THG6500-TAX2-OPENWRT-BSP you may add kmod-wireguard, then compile your image.

This router is garbage. WiFi works really bad with openwrt. It doesn’t even support WiFi soc updates. everything works really bad. I have wasted my money buying this garbage. The source code has no development. All of us who bought this router have a router that does not work. DO NOT BUY THIS ROUTER
