Installation notes

  • First install from stock firmware: flash the factoryimage through the vendor firmware's upgrade page or recovery mode.
  • Already running OpenWrt or ImmortalWrt: flash the sysupgrade image from LuCI (System → Backup / Flash Firmware) or with the sysupgrade command.
  • The kernel / initramfs image boots from RAM without writing to flash — useful for a first install or for recovering from a failed flash.
  • Verify your download against the published checksum before flashing:
    $ sha256sum openwrt-25.12.5-ipq40xx-generic-alfa-network_ap120c-ac-squashfs-factory.bin
    0c54ccaeacebdbc1cf5f82e162e4171c599b1bdc02001d308cee57ddeef9d8e2  openwrt-25.12.5-ipq40xx-generic-alfa-network_ap120c-ac-squashfs-factory.bin
