so, there is the open source release for the mr7500 which has the ipq807ux in https://downloads.linksys.com/support/assets/gpl/MR7500_v1.1.12.211919.tar.gz I have tried finding a DTS file there with not much luck other than random ones, I have serial access to it if needed, anyone min helping me buiild it?

Any news on support for the MR7500?
I would like to resurface this topic. There's another router with seemingly similar hardware (except WiFi 6E): Linksys MR7350.
OpenWRT support for MR7350 is currently WIP:
I hope this means that MR7500 could be supported as well.
Here's information that I pulled via the serial console from my MR7500:
Please let me know if any other information accessible via the serial console could be useful.

I got one off eBay for cheap and will probably work on it during winter break.

DTS patch is in 001_Divo-dts.patch as included in the tar, shouldn't be too hard to make it work.

Do you have the Pin layout for the UART? i.e. TX, RX, and GND
Made some progress, however, WAN port is dead with hsl_phy_phydev_get[775]:ERROR:phy_addr 8 phydev is NULL spamming very second, I copied the AQR dts from MX8500 which supposedly has the same WAN chip.
I guess I'll have to look for the right GPIO, firmware, and stuff on stock.
I'll attach the boot log as follows in case anybody would like to assist.
Some issues I see from the log:
- MAC addresses from ART are not correct
- QMI failed to fetch board file
- WAN phy dev is not up obviously
i tried to follow the dd-wrt story about the 7350 and there the wan is disabled by default..
https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=336706
Should be an irrelevant issue, 7350 doesn't have the AQR WAN we do.
As seen on MX8500, it should work just fine: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/14883/commits/0354f6baaea4638975c7f7e0404bed1a92987e4b

I guess it's on me that the caldata extraction from art failed, should be easy to resolve
