Adding OpenWrt support for Elecom WRC-X3200GST3

Elecom WRC-X3200GST3
Actually sold in Japan, can be found for less than $100
Looks like the same as the already supported elecom_wrc-2533gent + WIFI AX Support.

Current Firmware is based on Openwrt 17.01:

wikidevi confirms : MediaTek MT7622/MT7531
According to the files in the firmware, the wifi is based on MT7622/MT7915

The AC version (WRC-2533gent) has 4Gb Flash and 512Mb RAM, if it's the same for this device then i think it's a good challenger for the Linksys/Belkin RT3200.

looks like someone is trying...too bad he doesn't post here :sob:

It would be, if it was cheaper, the RT3200 can usually be found for around $70, new.

Seems like a capable device though.

i watched the bootlog, looks like the storage is not 4Gb like its brother, but 128Mb, if i'm not wrong. :sob:

how is the wifi performance compared to Rt3200. If it can have used for outside Japan.

Sure it's not gigabit?
That would mean 512mb.

Comparable, if it's using the same chipset, I don't own one though.

i don't remember where i found 128MB, probably here :
