 I managed to get the 5x2 pin header, and a "jtag cable" from a previous employer. I haven't soldered in awhile so I messed with it awhile trying to desolder all the points to attach the 10-pin header. Well, turns out, as far as I know, that the ground connections are not drilled through. So I attached ground to the serial port. Then I look at the "jtag cable". It's not wired at all like any JTAG I saw mentioned. Well, Bob did say he tried to make his own once and it didn't work. I guess that's the one he gave me. Don't know why, he's got several. One is USB, wish I borrowed that one now..
-So I re-wire the jtag cable to use the "DLC5" aka "very poor man's jtag" pin-out. There are resistors on our PCB which should be plenty, but I added what I had and they're like 450ohm and seem to work... Then, software... tjtag would be awesome if it worked. It doesn't seem to use DLC5 correctly for me...? Then I noticed I **need** nTRST at 3.3v, so I tied that to the serial port as well. so our 14-pin JTAG has pin1 going straight to 3.3v (shoulda used a 100ohm resistor they say), and next 4 pins down the left side going to parallel port pins 2,13,3,4, and parallel port's ground going to serial port ground...

-So I tried tjtag again and no dice. wtf. but some italian program for AR7 noticed the CPU ID as "1" so I searched and found [[http://urjtag.sourceforge.net/|UrJTAG]]. First **cable dlc5 parallel 0x378** then **detect** then **include admtek/adm5120/adm5120** and finally you should be able to use **flashmem 0x3cf00000 uboot.bin**. Of course, this is after you find libusb0.dll and ftd25xx.dll so the program will run. Neither library being utilized... wtf! But works better than getting cygwin for the old jtag tools ports.. It's flashing now, an hour later 64kb is done. I'll re-write this if it works.. I'm going to bed. What a day! All to save a $15 router. hah.

+I returned from sleep and it didn't work. I programmed the wrong address. soooo unless UrJtag says the Manufacturer and Chip type, it's not gonna work. Remember that. I assumed it was a supported family, but unsupported chip and thus didn't display. **0x3fc00000** would be the 16-bit access to any MIPS CPU's boot-rom, which is of course mapped to flash for us. It's also mapped at 0x30000000. For me, the 64k image takes just under 30minutes to flash. I recommend using **noverify** when flashing.
