Hi Clovek,
The WGR614v7 is not based on Linux but VXWorks operating system.
WGR614v8 (WGR614L) is Linux based and has a 240 MHz processor, plenty of cache, 4 MB Flash and 16 MB RAM.
Thanks

I have the WGR614 v7 router and like to try some open firmware on it.
Don’t need to buy the L version only to realize that something is impossible or don’t satisfy my needs.
So, if u guys can help me identify parts under the hood and give some advice, I’ll be thankful.
Important for me is:
1) amount of Flash and SDRAM memory in this model.
2) Is there some control mechanism when I flash the image from the NETGEAR web GUI? Checking the amount of available flash memory and size of the flashed image, before flashing. Or it only start’s to write data to the flash until the end of the addressing space?
Inside the “whitebox” I found:
ATHEROS AR2317-AC1A T721602.1B 0737
- on-chip system 32 bit CPU, integrated WLAN radio with extended range technology
More details here: http://www.atheros.com/pt/AR5007AP-G.htm
Infineon ADM6996FC AD0730 HA 1Z7 19002X05
- it should be the ethernet switch
MX X073524 25L 1605AMC-15G 2W233900
- this is the Flash chip from Macronix, but I’m not sure whether it is 2MB or 4MB chip.
SI IC42S16400-7TG A1674600W 2725
-SDRAM, don’t know the capacity
