[BPI-R3] Which GPON ONU is working?

Banana Pi Router design BPI-R3/R3 Mini(MT7986)

You have a typo in ip address :wink:

19

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: THANKS !!!

20

some of you having a snapshot working with your ONT SFP, please share a link so we can test it with our equipment ! Thanks a lot !

21

Perhaps work with older snapshot 2023-04-20, I use 2.5GbE sfp to rj45 and I haven’t had any issues.

22

i don’t have any issues too, with a tplink 2.5g sfp to rj45. Looks like the poblem occures only with ONT SFP…

23

Then I am curious why it does not work on openwrt, but it does on debian.

I did not understand that part from the above…

24

and now my BPI-R3 doesn’t want to boot from sdcard anymore ?!

all jumpers are high, and i keep getting this message

i’ll try to help you, hold on i’m building a test firmware for you (it includes lots of stuff you probably don’t want, just check if your sfp module works)

26

thanks but now what ever i burn on my sdcard, nothing boot. looks like the sdcard is not detected, or it try to boot from nand ??

27

https://easyupload.io/x80su7 try this, i’ve created a patch for your module, let me know if that helps

28

finaly it worked with another sdcard…

unfortunately

i still can’t ping the ont

i created my ont interface, added it the ip address 192.168.20.1/24 and added it in the firewall wan zone. everything is correctly configured, but it still doesn’t want to respond to the ping.

the problem = i can’t ping the ont, so no ssh, it just doesn’t work.

The ont is working, i can access it if i put it in a media converter (MC220L) and connect it to the wan port. that way i can access to its ip, and of course i can access internet.

now I wonder if I’m waiting long enough for the sfp to boot… :roll_eyes:

29

since, i made this from the ONT : fw_setenv asc0 1

image

if i remember well, this wasn’t necessary with Debian. And with openwrt, if it fixes the error message, it doesn’t fix the problem anyway.

30

a ping/access normally need 2 ip adresses in same subnet (if not completely locally)…

please share your ip configuration (ip a)…if your ONT has 192.168.20.10 as ip address imho you need another one e.g. on a dummy bridge

31

with openwrt i just need to create a new interface on eth1, give it the ip address 192.168.20.1, and add it in the firewall wan zone. that’s enough, and that 100% works if i do it with the wan(rj45) port. my ONT is on ip 192.168.20.10

i can’t do ‘ip a’ actually i’m in my office, i’ll be back home later

I see you can edit the eeprom vendor and model ID.

static void sfp_fixup_halny_gsfp(struct sfp *sfp)
{
	/* Ignore the TX_FAULT and LOS signals on this module.
	 * these are possibly used for other purposes on this
	 * module, e.g. a serial port.
	 */
	sfp->state_hw_mask &= ~(SFP_F_TX_FAULT | SFP_F_LOS);
}
	...
	...
	SFP_QUIRK_F("HALNy", "HL-GSFP", sfp_fixup_halny_gsfp),

So perhapse you can edit

Setting SFP vendor name
fw_setenv sfp_vendor_name "YOUR_SFP_VENDOR_NAME"

Setting SFP part name
fw_setenv sfp_part_name "YOUR_SFP_PART_NAME"

And pretend it is the HALNy HL-GSFP module, so the quirk is activated.

Then assuming it shows the correct speed (2.5Gbps) also in the eeprom, then you should be pretty close to a solution.

Edit:

But it depends which kernel version is running, as this quirk is introduced in kernel 6.1…

33

Ho ! interesting.

i’ll see if i can do that in a few hours…

34

Check the kernel version, as this quirk is introduced in kernel 6.1…

35

i’m actually with the firmware made by @Dale so i don’t know…

36

Perhapse @Dale can check if the quirk is in drivers/net/phy/sfp.c as he build it from the source…

Or he can add it to the patch he made…

37

I’ve added the MA5671 quirk for his module .it’s not the halny one
