Dang bro I downloaded mediatek_mt7622-rfb1-ubi-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin from the link you provided. I then installed luci which worked this time. However I am still stuck in System running in recovery (initramfs) mode.

I guess I bought it from walmart. I could return it. I have 30 days. Then I will also instead of paying $99.99 I will get it for $59.99. No biggy to me =) I think I am missing a step somewhere though.

I got it. I have to physically turn off and turn on the router a few times for some reason. I am now on Powered by LuCI Master (git-21.284.67084-e4d24f0) / OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r17795-b519997ab9 that should be the right one.

When LuCi doesn't work right, the first thing to try is clearing the browser cache.

Followed @daniel instructions here to convert into UBI OpenWrt and it worked flawlessly. Superb performance that I never experienced before in an OpenWrt router - full speeds with a WiFi 5 client (tested with iPerf3).

160Mhz mesh still not working?

770

160Mhz is working @Lynx.

771

right, but as part of a mesh between multiple RT3200's?

772

Sorry, I misread your question.

For what it’s worth, I couldn’t get 160MHz working with mesh, but that was a while back. Reading through past posts, no one seems to be able to use 160MHz with mesh. I ended up disabling mesh because, once I got 160MHz working, I no longer had performance or reception issues.

Anyone know what is preventing 160Mhz mesh working?

Also doesn't the AX standard allow for single time slot to be used for multiple stations using OFDMA? Wouldn't this mean super efficient use of the spectrum in mesh case? Like two mesh nodes communicate with each other on one 80Mhz slice and a client communicates with one of those nodes on the other 80Mhz slice at same time. That would give huge throughput in mesh context, right?

I am using 3x RT3200 with 80Mhz mesh in large three floor house with very thick walls. It has been completely stable so far. I have no idea if OFMA is being used or not.
