Hi,
I would like that Netgear WAX214 v1 is fully supported by OpenWrt.
I have been searching inside git, forums (sorry I'm new to OpenWrt world), about this access point and I found the following information:
There is already support (snapshot) for Netgear WAX214v2, but this is a MediaTek chip.
More info here:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=f25cd55bd1d13d2b89fefd4b1a88198ece1f8bbf
https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=SNAPSHOT&target=ramips%2Fmt7621&id=netgear_wax214v2
However, WAX214v1 has a Qualcomm IPQ6010 Quad core Cortex-A53.
I could find that was it was an attempt to add it to OpenWrt, but for me (new here) it is quite difficult to understand if it is really supported or not.
Info:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commitdiff;h=93610492b634c94e882dc048fde23d67a056ea1a
I would like to have a full support for it. So, some comments/questions.
a) I understand from this commit that I need to open the router and connect to it via serial cable. Is it right?
b) Where I can find this image?
c) REQUEST: Is it possible to add support to it using TFTP or NMRP?
d) REQUEST: a customized image like the WAX214v2 in the firmware-selector.openwrt.org snapshot.
Thank you in advance,
