Welcome to Lean's git source of OpenWrt and packages

How to build your Openwrt firmware.

Note:

1. DO NOT USE root USER!!!

2. Users within China should prepare proxy before building.

3. Web admin panel default IP is 192.168.1.1 and default password is "password".

Let's start!

1. First, install Ubuntu 64bit (Ubuntu 18 LTS x86 is recommended).

2. Run sudo apt-get update in the terminal, and then run sudo apt-get -y install build-essential asciidoc binutils bzip2 gawk gettext git libncurses5-dev libz-dev patch python3 python2.7 unzip zlib1g-dev lib32gcc1 libc6-dev-i386 subversion flex uglifyjs git-core gcc-multilib p7zip p7zip-full msmtp libssl-dev texinfo libglib2.0-dev xmlto qemu-utils upx libelf-dev autoconf automake libtool autopoint device-tree-compiler g++-multilib antlr3 gperf wget curl swig rsync

3. Run git clone https://github.com/coolsnowwolf/lede to clone the source, and then cd lede to enter the directory

4. ./scripts/feeds update -a
   ./scripts/feeds install -a
   make menuconfig
   

5. Run make -j8 download V=s to download libraries and dependencies (please use global proxy when possible)

6. Run make -j1 V=s (integer following -j is the thread count, single-thread is recommended for the first build) to start building your firmware.

This source code is promised to be compiled successfully.

You can use this source code freely, but please link this GitHub repository when redistributing. Thank you for your cooperation!

Rebuild:

cd lede
git pull
./scripts/feeds update -a && ./scripts/feeds install -a
make defconfig
make -j8 download
make -j$(($(nproc) + 1)) V=s

If reconfiguration is need:

rm -rf ./tmp && rm -rf .config
make menuconfig
make -j$(($(nproc) + 1)) V=s

Build result will be produced to bin/targets directory.

Special tips:

1. This source code doesn't contain any backdoors or close source applications that can monitor/capture your HTTPS traffic, SSL is the final castle of cyber security. Safe is what a firmware should archive.

Router Recommendation

Not Sponsored: If you are finding a low power consumption, small and performance promising x86/x64 router, I personally recommend the EZPROv1 Alumium Edition (N3710 4000M): Details
