A few sercomm-recovery images for WiFire S1500.NBN:

recovery_wifire-s1500.nbn_1st-v2.0.12_2nd-v2.0.14.bin:
	- Slot1: 
		S1500-v2.0.12
	- Slot2 (default):
		S1500-v2.0.14

recovery_wifire-s1500.nbn_1st-owrt-snapshot-5.15_2nd-v2.0.14.bin:
	- Slot1 (default):
		* OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r19537+73-c283defa88
			LuCI Master git-22.126.42175-8583efb
			Kernel Version: 5.15.35
		* For breed lovers: the mtd-rw module is present, so you can play your favorite games :) (squeeze a "rooter", "padavan", fight against the bad blocks, etc.)
		* Switch to Slot2 from OpenWrt:
			printf 1 | dd bs=1 seek=7 count=1 of=/dev/mtdblock4
	- Slot2: 
		S1500-v2.0.14

For which device do you expect support to be added to OpenWRT?
  • Sercomm S1500 AWI - Beeline SmartBox PRO
  • Sercomm S1500 BUC - WiFire S1500.NBN

You are missing the most obvious choise, neither.

Someone will have to do the hands-on development - if no one does the work, there won't be any kind of support for either.
