+==== Download ====
+[[http://www.netlab.linkpc.net/download/software/openwrt/DIR-506L/|DIR-506L]]\\
+[[https://github.com/rozhuk-im/openwrt/commits/all_local|github.com]]
+==== Known issues ====
+=== Upgrade hang ===
+Upgrade may hang, at least then WebUI used.\\
+Workaround: stop unbound and dnsmasq before upload f/w to release memory.
+=== Net hang on boot ===
+Happen then internal switch exist and disabled.\\
+<code>NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (mtk_soc_eth): transmit queue 0 timed out</code>
+[[https://forum.openwrt.org/t/mtk-soc-eth-watchdog-timeout-after-r11573/50000/377]]\\
+[[https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/8660]]\\
+Workaround: unplug net cable untill device started\\
+Workaround: remove switch from existing configuration or build f/w without defined switch in 02_network and reset config on/after update
+==== How to revert to OEM firmware ====
+  * push the reset button and turn on the power. Wait until LED start blinking (~10sec.)
+  * upload original factory image via JBOOT http (IP: 192.168.123.254)
+\\
+If http doesn't work, it can be done with curl command:
+<code>curl -F FN=@XXXXX.bin http://192.168.123.254/upg</code>
+where XXXXX.bin is name of firmware file.
