How to bridge ptm0.101 on OpenWRT LEDE with ECI /r?
« on: October 17, 2017, 10:57:06 AM »

I'm just wondering if anyone has managed to setup a bridge between the WAN and LAN via ptm0.101 on the ECI /r with the OpenWRT LEDE firmware? I'm still trying to figure it out as well as go through Google but no luck as yet. Any assistance is appreciated! Reason I want to do this is because I have EdgeRouter handling the PPPoE, routing and such, I just want the ECI /r to be a dummy modem.

EDIT: Nevermind, solved it. Interestingly I'm getting a few error seconds for every refresh interval (5-10 seconds?). Very much like my HG612 and DrayTek 2860 is. I wonder if the locked ECI /r was getting it, or perhaps not telling DLM the true error seconds for downstream? I'll see tonight if DLM intervenes, if it does then I'll decide whether or not to go back to the locked down ECI /r though I have no idea what the firmware version for that modem is. If I knew then maybe I could try putting that on the unlocked ECI /r via LEDE. On the other hand I'm syncing at 75/16, but that might change if and when DLM intervenes due to the high error seconds.

are you aware of this page?
https://xdarklight.github.io/lantiq-xdsl-firmware-info/

(i had stock ECI vdsl firmware extracted somewhere, just can't find it now)
I'm using 5.8.1.8.1.6 and it's superstable.

and my config for comparison:
Code: [Select]
config switch 'eth0'
        option 'enable' '1'
        option 'enable_vlan' '1'
        option 'reset' '1'

config switch_vlan  'eth0_1'
        option device 'eth0'
        option vlan '1'
        option ports '4 6t'

config switch_vlan  'eth0_2'
        option device 'eth0'
        option vlan '2'
        option ports '2 6t'

config interface 'loopback'
        option ifname 'lo'

        option 'proto'   'none'
        option 'ifname'  'eth0.1 ptm0.101'

Hi,
Yes, I've downloaded a few different firmware versions via that website to try out. I was unsuccessful in using the ECI /r Openreach firmware, it would sync then appear to crash and re-sync again (every 30-40 seconds). I'll check my config tomorrow and compare it, maybe something in my config is causing the DSL firmware to crash.

Using the supplied LEDE firmware works but I have a line issue which isn't detectable by a CIDT test or detectable when the voice engineer setup the second line. This line issue is causing me to get many thousands of error seconds if on fastpath, on the downstream, CRC errors are trickling in small amounts. The only related problem is that there's a degraded joint that needs sorting but it's in a manhole cover on the main road and there's lots of traffic. I don't know why but the ECI /r that's locked seemed to not trigger DLM. Either way I need to try and discuss this issue with AAISP and see what they say, maybe they can pressure Openreach into getting the degraded joint sorted out quicker.

Thanks for the config :).
