Support for Buffalo WSR-6000AX8?

fakemanhk · November 24, 2023, 7:47pm

Found a Japanese with some self built (23.05.0-rc based) firmware in this GitHub page about the Buffalo WSR-6000AX8 router.

From my basic understanding on this router, it's a MT7986b based device, with 2.5G WAN + 3 x 1G LAN port. Wireless it has 8x8 160MHz, and this page showing that it has 512MB RAM + 128MB flash which seems to be quite standard, not sure if there is anyway to get official support?
