Costs can vary, so when the campaign reaches enough funds, we will send the unit and close the campaign. We need less than 20 people to jump in, so please do!

FCC ID: TE7C9V5
-
The main chip is a:
Broadcom
BCM4709A0KFEBG
TT1613 P10
581683-11 Z1D
with these characteristics:
Broadcom BCM4707/4708/4709
Communications Processor with Network Acceleration Hardware
Chip
Communications device targeted for applications in switching control and management, and residential router/gateway.
The BCM4707/4708/4709 family includes the BCM4707, BCM4708 and BCM4709. At the center of the device is a high-performance 1 GHz ARM® Cortex™-A9 dual-core with a 32 KB four-way set associative instruction cache, a 32 KB four-way set associative data cache and a 128-entry translation lookaside buffer (TLB). Enhanced CPU memory subsystem architecture provides increased system performance. The device uses 40 nm technology.
Features:
Advanced ARM® Cortex™-A9 Dual-Core
32 KB I-cache and 32 KB D-cache per core
Snoop Control Unit (SCU) with ACP interface for I/O coherency
256 KB L2 Cache (shared)
SMP and AMP capable
Single-processor core operation configurable
Advanced Gigabit Ethernet
Eight ports with full-line rate
Five 10/100/1000 PHY ports
Support for lot 6 power standard
Hardware Flow Accelerator
RGMII/MII-lite interface
Chip
Implements the 3-stream 802.11ac specification to enable speeds up to 1.3 Gb/s in access points, routers, DSL/cable gateways and PC products.
The single-chip dual-band transceiver integrates all the major functional blocks needed to implement a complete 802.11ac wireless sub-system, including radio, baseband and Media Access Control (MAC). This highly integrated solution provides the increased coverage and throughput performance required for high-quality video and media applications in the home and enterprise. Access points, routers, PC notebook computers and digital TV/ media devices enabled with the BCM4360 can have greater than gigabit speeds over Wi-Fi networks.
Features:
1.3 Gb/s PHY rate performance offering over 3 times performance of three-stream 802.11n devices
Dual-band operation compatible with Not Recommended for New Design 802.11n networks
80 MHz bandwidth is 2 times wider than current 802.11n solutions
256-QAM, a higher modulation scheme that increases data transfer efficiency
802.11ac-compliant transmit and receive beamforming for extended coverage for 802.11ac and Not Recommended for New Design devices
Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) Codes for increased rate at range
PCI Express® 2.0 host interface
Enhanced Bluetooth coexistence interface support for seamless BT + 5G WiFi operation

Hardware or money donation and homework done. I have not asked if BrainSlayer already has one in hand, but he needs specific information to port the firmware to the device. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"

Sorry, not entirely understood. Should we supply more information or now just patiently wait? 🤗

Well, if nobody is donating to the gofundme to send one to BrainSlayer, maybe someone will attach a USB to UART TTL serial adapter cable and capture the router information REQUIRED to port this device. I give up trying to explain this. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"

I'll work on that this weekend. I know I can dump flash to usb from the console. I'll get as much as I can posted as I can. I know someone has already posted FCC info, will the already posted FCC pics be enough or should I supply more?

If you can get some good hi-res pics and post them on something like imgur and link them, or put them in a .zip file and attach, that would be fine and an added bonus. Otherwise, the images can't be over 790-800 pixels wide or it skews the crap out of the forum page formatting. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"
