Does my router support 802.11 k + r +s

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

I want to check which features my router supports, especially if 802.11 k + r +s is supported.

Sorry, I don't remember the command in a terminal to find this out, knew this not so long ago, but I can't find this posting.

cat /proc/cpuinfo is not what I am searching.

Many devices that run openwrt can support those standards. But be aware that they are not a panacea and sometimes actually cause new issues.

Let’s start here:

ubus call system board

Ok, I remember another command, where the output listed mesh eg.

root@C7v5-K1:~# ubus call system board
{
	"kernel": "5.15.137",
	"hostname": "C7v5-K1",
	"system": "Qualcomm Atheros QCA956X ver 1 rev 0",
	"model": "TP-Link Archer C7 v5",
	"board_name": "tplink,archer-c7-v5",
	"rootfs_type": "squashfs",
	"release": {
		"distribution": "OpenWrt",
		"version": "23.05.2",
		"revision": "r23630-842932a63d",
		"target": "ath79/generic",
		"description": "OpenWrt 23.05.2 r23630-842932a63d"
	}
}

and

root@EX6150v2:~# ubus call system board
{
	"kernel": "5.15.137",
	"hostname": "EX6150v2",
	"system": "ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)",
	"model": "Netgear EX6150v2",
	"board_name": "netgear,ex6150v2",
	"rootfs_type": "squashfs",
	"release": {
		"distribution": "OpenWrt",
		"version": "23.05.2",
		"revision": "r23630-842932a63d",
		"target": "ipq40xx/generic",
		"description": "OpenWrt 23.05.2 r23630-842932a63d"
	}
}

The question for me is, if I should replace the Archer C7 with an Asus RT-AX53U and the Netgear with a D-Link DAP-X1860

With the C7 I know, mesh is possible, but not so easy to setup. 2 DAP-X1860 I use already and a 3rd waits for the decision to keep or to send back. I will keep it, if configuartion is a lot easier than with the Netgear. I want to avoid to compile a kernel.

This is the output of the DAP-X1860

root@X1860-B1:~# ubus call system board
{
	"kernel": "5.15.137",
	"hostname": "X1860-B1",
	"system": "MediaTek MT7621 ver:1 eco:3",
	"model": "D-Link DAP-X1860 A1",
	"board_name": "dlink,dap-x1860-a1",
	"rootfs_type": "squashfs",
	"release": {
		"distribution": "OpenWrt",
		"version": "23.05.2",
		"revision": "r23630-842932a63d",
		"target": "ramips/mt7621",
		"description": "OpenWrt 23.05.2 r23630-842932a63d"
	}
}

The Asus RT-AX53U has to be ordered, unfortunately no Black Friday offer :wink:

Asus TUF-AX6000 is bought and will be flashed with openwrt when the hardware is clear. The AX6000 will be "master router", makes no sense to install openwrt earlier, since work is in progress with this device.

I found now what I was looking for, but unfortunately this doesn't answer my question.
