SpitFire 500 (SF500) IDE oddities.
==================================
Some notes because it wasn't obvious to me.
The Spitfire 500 is a spiritual clone of the BSC 'AT-Bus 2008', therefore assumes you'd use the BSC Oktagon (and compatible Oktapussy) ROM.
Story
-----
Wanting to use LIV2's lide driver, the consensus was to just use the at-bus variant of lide.

tinwhisker / MPLAB X IDE 5.50 Install on M1 Mac.md
Last active July 11, 2021 22:11
MPLAB X IDE 5.50 Install on M1 Mac and respective compilers.

These are personal notes that may help you. Read carefully, as some parts may be disjointed!

Key points:

  • Install the compilers first (using the same principle). I made these notes before finding this out!
  • Then install the IDE.
  • If you install in reverse order, run the IDE un-install, default settings, then re-install after. Failing to do may cause the IDE to crash on start.

General points:

  • My testing was as far as a simple project for an ATTiny441 producing a valid hex file.
  • Using a programmer directly from the IDE is untested.

tinwhisker / ee bright box 2.md
Created February 5, 2021 20:57 — forked from rufoa/ee bright box 2.md

The Bright Box 2 is a combined VDSL modem and wireless router supplied to customers of EE (Orange). It is manufactured by Arcadyan and uses a Broadcom bcm63xx SoC

These instructions are based on the latest firmware at the time of writing: v0.04.05.0001-OT (Fri Mar 24 17:29:32 2017)

Put it in bridge mode

  • This is for if you want to use the Bright Box as a VDSL modem only, and have a separate router act as the PPPoE client (e.g. ubiquiti edgerouter), avoiding double NAT
  • There is lot of nonsense, not least from people on EE's own forum, about how this cannot be done
  • If desired, change the Bright Box IP and subnet before doing this because the settings tab becomes inaccessible
  • Connect your router to port 4 (GigE) on your BB
