Hello
i am trying to get JTAG working on La Fonera.
I am using URJtag http://urjtag.org/
But it seems that i need some Peeks and Poke (like on old 8bit Machines) to get the Software working with the Flash of the la Fonera. Is anyone interested to help me? I have build a german Wiki Page with some Details.

If you need translation on that please write me a PM.
Maybe it is also possible to Flash LaFonera with a SPI Interface which are used with Microcontrollers.
for your knowledge there is another boy who started to similar project. He's working on tjtag (that works in DOS) it seems to me more simple that urjtag. So I prefer his solution, but may be that a solution from you can help him in his goal. He ported the atheros driver into tjtag but is working to spi support. I'd like to help you in your job but the only thing that I can do is the beta tester because I don't know programming.
May be that you know them, but I send to you some usefull link about M25Pxx used on foneras and other boards as you can read in my topic.
he´s is enhancing the original hairyday jtag utility at the ddwrt side. he added whr-hp-ag108 support which is atheros based.
so fonera and other atheros devices are possible

The problem is lack of feedback, and testers, need correct jtag pinouts, etc... _________________ Want JTAG support - Donate a router

yes: Jtag Tornado modifications recognizes the chipset Atheros. It is a very good new for me because now I'm sure for the jtag pinouts on the tested
boards.
Fonera 2200A and Philips SNB6500
It seems pretty flexible, you only need to properly edit/change the "usbjtag.def" file for different boards.
only edit? If I knew the differences from parallel eprom and serial one, and If I knew programming, I would try to make tjtag working alone. Do you think you can edit the file.def to programm atheros with serial eprom? Please do it!
I was referring to the usbjtag cable. They use a unique set of drivers and programming utility. I'm hoping to replace many of my serial & parallel stuff w/ usb stuff. I've since replaced all my serial-ttl cables with vista compatible versions. jtag is a totally different story. Commercial jtag stations are VERY expensive!

Yes I have undertood you. Sorry for my english I need to write more and more times to transmit my thought. You did mean usbjtag: ok, but i asked to you if with it I can programm devices with atheros and serial eprom mounted. Do that usbjtag support it?
