Pilot status: these steps follow the OpenWrt wiki and our software tests. They have not yet been completed end-to-end on a real Ruijie by us — follow carefully and report anything different.Pilot pa: sinusunod ng mga hakbang na ito ang OpenWrt wiki at ang aming software tests. Hindi pa namin ito natatapos nang buo sa totoong Ruijie — sundan nang maingat at ipaalam kung may naiiba.

Ready-made JANDY firmware (OpenWrt 24.10.8 + LuCI + openNDS + JANDY 0.2.7). Flash one of these instead of plain OpenWrt and the JANDY package is already installed — skip steps 7–8 and go straight to “JANDY WiFi” and the setup code.Handang JANDY firmware (OpenWrt 24.10.8 + LuCI + openNDS + JANDY 0.2.7). I-flash ang isa rito sa halip na plain OpenWrt at naka-install na ang JANDY — laktawan ang hakbang 7–8 at diretso sa “JANDY WiFi” at sa setup code.

Part 1 — Flash OpenWrt on the Ruijie RG-EW1200G ProBahagi 1 — I-flash ang OpenWrt sa Ruijie RG-EW1200G Pro

⚠️ Flashing replaces the Ruijie firmware and can void the warranty. A mistake can leave the router unusable until recovered. Only hardware version V1.1 is supported.⚠️ Papalitan ng flashing ang firmware ng Ruijie at maaaring mawala ang warranty. Kapag nagkamali, maaaring hindi magamit ang router hanggang ma-recover. Ang hardware version V1.1 lang ang suportado.

Check the label: V1.1 onlyTingnan ang label: V1.1 lang

Turn the router over. The sticker must say RG-EW1200G PRO and hardware version V1.1. Any other version: stop.Baliktarin ang router. Dapat nakasulat sa sticker ang RG-EW1200G PRO at hardware version V1.1. Kung iba: huminto.

Look for “Hardware Ver: V1.1” on the bottom sticker.Hanapin ang “Hardware Ver: V1.1” sa sticker sa ilalim.

Connect your PC by cableIkabit ang PC gamit ang cable

Use a LAN cable from your PC to a LAN port of the Ruijie (not the WAN port). Keep the router’s WAN unplugged for now.Gumamit ng LAN cable mula sa PC papunta sa LAN port ng Ruijie (hindi sa WAN). Huwag munang ikabit ang WAN.

Download the OpenWrt image and check itI-download ang OpenWrt image at i-check

Open firmware-selector.openwrt.org, type RG-EW1200G PRO v1.1, choose the newest 24.10.x and download SYSUPGRADE (…-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin). This model has no FACTORY image — the "factory.bin" in the OpenWrt instructions is this file. Do not use KERNEL (it only runs from memory). Also note the sha256 shown under SYSUPGRADE. Then check the file on Windows:Buksan ang firmware-selector.openwrt.org, i-type ang RG-EW1200G PRO v1.1, piliin ang pinakabagong 24.10.x at i-download ang SYSUPGRADE (…-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin). Walang FACTORY image ang model na ito — ang "factory.bin" sa instructions ng OpenWrt ay ang file na ito. Huwag ang KERNEL (sa memory lang tumatakbo). Tandaan ang sha256 sa ilalim ng SYSUPGRADE. Tapos i-check sa Windows:

certutil -hashfile factory.bin SHA256

The result must match exactly. If not, download again.Dapat eksaktong tugma. Kung hindi, i-download ulit.

(Rename the downloaded file to factory.bin to match the commands below.)(Palitan ang pangalan ng file ng factory.bin para tugma sa mga command sa ibaba.)

Get command access on the stock firmwareKumuha ng command access sa stock firmware

The stock Ruijie firmware has no upload button for OpenWrt. Follow the Installation section of the official OpenWrt page for this exact model:Walang upload button para sa OpenWrt ang stock firmware ng Ruijie. Sundan ang seksyong Installation sa opisyal na OpenWrt page ng model na ito:

openwrt.org/toh/ruijie/rg-ew1200g_pro_v1.1

We don’t repeat that part here: it depends on the stock firmware version, and the wiki is kept up to date by the OpenWrt community. If you get stuck, message us.Hindi na namin inuulit dito ang bahaging iyon: nakadepende ito sa bersyon ng stock firmware, at ang wiki ang inaalagaan ng OpenWrt community. Kung na-stuck, i-message kami.

Write OpenWrt to the routerIsulat ang OpenWrt sa router

On the PC, open a terminal in the folder with factory.bin and start a small file server:Sa PC, magbukas ng terminal sa folder na may factory.bin at patakbuhin ang maliit na file server:

python -m http.server

On the router’s command line (replace PC-IP with your PC’s address, e.g. from ipconfig):Sa command line ng router (palitan ang PC-IP ng address ng PC mo, hal. mula sa ipconfig):

cd /tmp
wget http://PC-IP:8000/factory.bin
mtd -r write factory.bin firmware

Do not unplug the power while it writes. The router restarts by itself.Huwag bunutin ang power habang nagsusulat. Kusang magre-restart ang router.

Part 4 — Wire the coin acceptor safelyBahagi 4 — Ligtas na pagkabit ng coin acceptor

⚠️ The acceptor runs on 12 V. Never connect its wires directly to the board (3.3 V). Use a PC817 optocoupler for the coin signal, a transistor or relay for inhibit, and a fuse on the 12 V line. Power off while wiring.⚠️ 12 V ang acceptor. Huwag kailanman ikabit nang diretso sa board (3.3 V). Gumamit ng PC817 optocoupler sa coin signal, transistor o relay sa inhibit, at fuse sa 12 V. Patayin ang kuryente habang nagkakabit.

Simplified diagram. The optocoupler keeps the 12 V side and the 3.3 V board separate. Check your acceptor’s label for its exact wire colours.Pinasimpleng diagram. Pinaghihiwalay ng optocoupler ang 12 V at ang 3.3 V na board. Tingnan ang label ng acceptor mo para sa eksaktong kulay ng wire.

Test with ₱1I-test gamit ang ₱1

Connect a phone to JANDY WiFi, tap Insert Coin, drop ₱1 → the time appears, the phone gets internet, and the sale shows on the dashboard with a TX- receipt. Then try ₱5 and unplugging the modem (coins still work; time pauses while the internet is down).Ikonekta ang phone sa JANDY WiFi, pindutin ang Insert Coin, maghulog ng ₱1 → lalabas ang oras, may internet ang phone, at makikita ang benta sa dashboard na may TX- na resibo. Subukan din ang ₱5 at ang pagbunot ng modem (tuloy ang barya; naka-pause ang oras habang walang internet).

If something goes wrongKung may nagkaproblema

Router does not come back after flashing: per the OpenWrt wiki, the Ruijie’s recovery loads rgos.bin by TFTP from a PC at 192.168.64.1. See the wiki’s debricking notes before trying.Hindi bumalik ang router pagkatapos mag-flash: ayon sa OpenWrt wiki, kumukuha ang recovery ng Ruijie ng rgos.bin sa TFTP mula sa PC na 192.168.64.1. Basahin muna ang debricking notes ng wiki.
No COM port for the NodeMCU: try another USB cable (data) and install the CH340/CP2102 driver.Walang COM port ang NodeMCU: subukan ang ibang USB cable (pang-data) at i-install ang CH340/CP2102 driver.
Forgot the router owner password: hold the Ruijie’s RESET button for 3–8 seconds (not longer) to open a 10-minute password reset on the owner page.Nakalimutan ang owner password ng router: pindutin ang RESET ng Ruijie nang 3–8 segundo (hindi mas matagal) para mabuksan ang 10-minutong password reset sa owner page.
