5GHz wifi routers

Hardware Questions and Recommendations
#1

Hi there,
i bought Tp-link ac750, that support 5Ghz wifi, but 5ghz wifi is not supported by openwrt on this router. I need openwrt on this routere bc of 802.1x is not supported by manufacturing. Is there any way how i can make that work? if not can you recommend me some router on which will be supported 802.1x and 5ghz wifi?

https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_extended_all -- select your options and confirm support

Maybe Strong 1200?

I think is the cheapest router with 4+1 Gb ports, USB and wlan2.4 & wlan5

Does AC750 use MT7610E for its 5GHz WiFi? It's recently supported by mt76 driver.
But you need to modify dts and compile the firmware with kmod-mt76x0e by yourself.

Yes it does use MT7610E and just requires someone to add it to the target build so on a Snapshot version it should work.
