GL.iNet GL-MT300A
*****************
The GL-MT300A is based on a MT7620 chipset.
== GL.iNet GL-MT300A
For flashing from U-Boot, the firmware partition is from
0xbc050000 to 0xbcfd0000.
The GL-MT300A is based on a MT7620 chipset.
WiFi on this device is provided by the rt2800soc module. It
expects firmware to be present in the "factory" MTD partition, so
- assuming we want to use the wireless - we need to build MTD
support into the kernel even if we're using TFTP root.

The stock vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt, meaning that the
binary created by :ref:`system-outputs-mtdimage` can be flashed
using the vendor web UI or the U-Boot emergency "unbrick" routine.
=== Installation
Flashing over an existing Liminix system is not possible while
that system is running, otherwise you'll be overwriting flash
partitions while they're in use - and that might not end well.
Configure the system with :ref:`levitate` if you need to
make it upgradable.
The stock vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt, meaning that the binary
created by `+system-outputs-mtdimage+` can be flashed using the vendor
web UI or the U-Boot emergency "unbrick" routine.
