Does someone have Netgate SG-2100 internal slot?

doronl15 · Sep 25, 2020, 8:16 PM

I want to add wireless cards and there are two slots, one like m.2 and another one thinner.
Can I add a RT3090 wifi card to it?

It has an m.2 slot wired for SATA or USB2 with the SIM card slot connected to it. And it has an mPCIe slot wired for PCIe only.
The PCIe slot has limited compatibility but may work with that card. If you have the card try it.
It does work with a Compex WLE200NX so if you're buying something specifically for this get that.

@stephenw10
Thanks, I ordered an atheros card with AR9280 and this is what the WLE200NX has.
Strange, this card work ok with x86 system with pfsense 3.4.5 so I guessed it would also work here. But maybe be because its arm based system not all drivers are available.

Hi Steve,
According to netgate documentation the intel card should work.
However need to update the Intel acknowledgment.
How do I edit the /boot/configuration file?
I'm new in psfense never had to change anything in the environment.

Doron.

To add custom loader variables create the file /boot/loader.conf.local and add them there.
However you do not need to ack those to use them.

The PCI driver for the SG-2100 (and SG-1100) is still in active development so some devices may not be recognised regardless of the drivers for those devices. Check the output of pciconf -lv to see if the card is seen on the bus at all.

I have specifically tested the WLE200NX and know it works, others may not.

Also bare in mind there are some wifi cards that are mPCIe format but are actually connected using USB. Those will never work as the slot is not wired for USB.

Hi Steve,
Run the commands its recognized on the pcie as RT3090 wifi card, category network.
However can not add it in the interface assign wireless.

Doron.

stephenw10 · Sep 27, 2020, 12:21 AM

Oh, nice! So it shows as a 'none' device? What are the PCI IDs shown?

Hmm, I thought that would be supported but it looks like it might be ral(4) only. And that is not in the 2.4.5 arm64 kernel it appears...

Steve

Hi Steve,
here is the complete snapshot of the command prompt
login-to-view
hope it will help, it works well with x86 HP T610 pc with pfSense 3.4.5

stephenw10 · Sep 27, 2020, 11:06 AM

Yeah, that device requires the ral driver:
https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/blob/RELENG_2_4_5/sys/dev/ral/if_ral_pci.c#L90

It's not in the pfSense 2.4.5 arm64 kernel currently. I created a feature request for it:
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/10934

Could you add that pciconf output as text here so I can add it? Or you can add it there yourself.

The other useful output there is to reboot the SG-2100 and interrrupt uboot to reach the Marvell> prompt. Then at that prompt run: pci long

That will give a bunch of PCI infor about the card that could be useful for debugging the PCI driver.
For example the WLE200NX looks like:

Marvell>> pci long

What actual card is that you have? I'll grab one to test with if I can.

doronl15 · Oct 6, 2020, 10:22 AM

Hi Steve,
some bad news, i wanted to restore a backup from the T610 to the SG-2100 and now the SG-2100 is completely stuck.
its going all the way until it say "bootup complete" then the terminal is stuck.
how do i flash new fw? or do factory defaults without terminal?

Hi Steve,
the reset button does not work, however in LAN1 i've succeeded to get the GUI and restored the configuration.
So we are back in square 1
here is photo of the Ralink3090

I'll see if I can grab get one.

The config you restored probably had the wrong console type setup would be my first guess. You could probably have just enabled the serial console in the gui in Sys > Adv > Admin Access.

The ral(4) driver is now in 2.5 snapshots for the SG-2100:

[2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT][admin@2100-2.stevew.lan]/root: kldstat -v | grep /ral
		163 pci/ral

I acquired a card that uses this driver, it appears to be detected and driver loads:

[2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT][root@2100-2.stevew.lan]/root: pciconf -lv
ral0@pci0:0:0:0:        class=0x028000 card=0x27901814 chip=0x07811814 rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Ralink corp.'
    device     = 'RT2790 Wireless 802.11n 1T/2R PCIe'
    class      = network

doronl15 · Oct 29, 2020, 1:30 PM

Is this in 2.5.0 beta?
Since its not released yet.

stephenw10 · Oct 29, 2020, 6:45 PM

It is in current 2.5 snaps yes.

That particular card just causes a panic when I try to configure it so if you can test something else that would be great.

Bad news.
I've tried to update to latest 2.5.0 developments snapshot and now the system won't boot and stuck in the Marvell UBOOT with bad CRC.
What can I do to recover?

Doron.

stephenw10 · Oct 29, 2020, 9:29 PM

Bad crc might just be because it tried to boot from something that doesn't exist.

Open a ticket with us and get the restore image if it's unbootable: https://go.netgate.com/
