i guess what I was dumping the squashfs only using cat /dev/mtd5 > /var/tmp/usb/sda1/backup1.bin command.

Hi apoklyps3 ,
Sorry for late response beceause of im very busy with some jobs and a lot of works Smilie

I could see for a few hours at the images..
It takes a lot of time to study it in depth but i see some files in the images so it look MIPS arch executable ( kernel code ) and
other kernel data ( but i m not sure consistency of this data , i could not test it due to limited time ) and the other one contains two boot data ( i guess binary bootloader and configs )..
as I understand it we must the update the rootfs that contains ( /etc/ and others dirs ) ..
so i will continue to examine ( when i have time )

now if you have the firmware image ( one-piece ) , can you attach here it ?
and can you attach the other mtd ( ( 2-3-4-5-6) especially rootfses ) parts ( thanks )

ATMEL_FWL(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      ATMEL_FWL(8)

NAME

       atmel_fwl - Load firmware into Atmel at76c50x wireless networking chips.

SYNOPSIS

       atmel_fwl <interface> /path/to/firmware

DESCRIPTION

       atmel_fwl loads firmware images for Atmel at76c50x series wireless networking chips into the Linux driver for same.

       Note  that this utility is not normally necessary, since the driver will automatically load the correct firmware image via the hotplug sys-
       tem. Atmel_fwl is provided for applications where use of the hotplug system may not be desirable.

       atmel_fwl should be run after the interface has been created (after card insertion, in the case of PCMCIA cards) but before it  is  brought
       up by running ifconfig.

NOTES

       Note that there are two versions of many of the firmware images, the second one with the suffix "-wpa". These are later releases from Atmel
       which support WPA privacy. They are only usable by versions of the driver greater than 0.9. Be sure not to use the "-wpa" one  unless  your
       in-kernel driver code is version 0.9 or better. Sadly, as of version 0.9, the in-kernel driver does not actually support the setting of WPA
       passphrases.

       The firmware images are usually installed in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware.

       The status of the driver, including its firmware loading, is available in /proc/driver/atmel

FILES

       /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware

       /proc/driver/atmel
