Hallo,
I send the link of the zyxel for this model ZyXEL EX7501-B0 specifically, it is the 10 Gbps wan/lan model.
do you know if it can be supported by OpenWrt? I do not find it anywhere.
Thank you!
Depends on the hw inside.
Open it up, post photos of the PCB, and the boot log.

I am thinking to buy one, but I do not want to end up with unsupported platform for openwrt
I read that B0 is Broadcom
But there is no conclusive evidence supporting such claim
No pictures, no reference to device details
They are not the same:
AX7501-B0 ≠ EX7501-B0
They will be, until proven they're not.
They are not, untill proven otherwise
Whatever floats your boat.
Zyxel in its products inserts the vendor directly in the name, -B stands for Broadcom, -T for TrendChip (now Mediatek), -R for realtek, -D for Lantiq (I don't know why D).
So it definitely uses a broadcom SoC

I will try to get a EX7501 to settle down such dispute
Will keep u updated
It might be right that it's broadcom based, lot of cheap wifi7 devices started to showing on market with broadcom based hw. The hardware is better but opensource support close to none existing.
