I purchased a w1701k, which has basically the same configuration as the w1700k, except that it only has two 2.5G network ports. Can it be flashed with the openwrt system? In terms of uboot, it also has efuse verification. Will it be possible to flash uboot in the future?
each device have a unique config, so no, it most likely can't, today.
down the road, who knows.
if you have a flash writer, pretty much everything's possible.
bigger problem might be to reproduce the functionality of the stock u-boot.
the w1701k should probably have it's own thread, start one.

It comes with an efuse lock; I wonder if flashing it arbitrarily will trigger the fuse
Entered safe mode background and set up SSH according to w1700k's tutorial, but this machine is an AP and does not issue DHCP. I haven't tried modifying the config yet. I tried to start wifi 2.4G but failed.
eth0 cannot connect, 6GHz wifi cannot be enabled
You have to configure your country and if it is China you will not be able to enable the 6 GHz band.
Can you check if Ethernet works on the latest version?
Everything is normal
Do we know anything about the W1701K pods? Would they work as dumb APs?
A PR was opened a month ago, if/when it gets merged, the device will be supported - https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/20430.
