ZyXEL NWA50AX Pro
The ZyXEL NWA50AX Pro is ZyXEL's more advanced SOHO 802.11ax/WiFi 6 access point, like many business class APs, it is designed for wall/ceiling mount, and includes a 12v2A power supply, and also PoE support, along side an easily accessible console port, reset button and multi-color LED. Compared to the NWA50AX it adds 160Mhz channels and a 2.5GB ethernet interface
Supported Versions
Hardware Highlights
Installation
Install is via either the built-in web interface of the OEM firmware, or via TFTP (there is an externally accessible serial console - see below).
As shipped (or factory reset), the OEM firmware obtains an IP address via DHCP, and makes a web interface available on this IP address.
- Navigate to the web interface.
- Select “Standalone Mode”.
- Default username is admin. Default password is 1234.
- Cancel the setup wizard.
- Check current OEM firmware slot number (see below).
- Enter the maintenance section (hand holding spanner/wrench icon).
- Select the 2nd tab “Firmware Package”.
- Upload the openwrt factory image.
- The access point will reboot into OpenWRT after a couple of minutes, at which point the LED will remain green.
- Note that the IP address configuration will be different when running OpenWRT (as of 23.05.x), so you can close the browser tab, and ignore the message about waiting.
As of 23.05.x release, the access point when running a new install of OpenwRT defaults to the 192.168.1.1 IP address, and will offer an IP address in the 192.168.0.1/24 IPv4 network via DCHP (whilst also advertising itself as the default gateway). Only the Ethernet interface is enabled (wifi disabled).
Important note regarding installation
If the OEM firmware has been upgraded an odd number of times (i.e. 1, 3, 5, 7 etc.) , the install will fail. If in doubt, follow the workaround below:
- Download the “Firmware OpenWrt Install” image from the table above.
- Use the web interface of the original OEM software:
- Navigate to: “Maintenance” → “Diagnostics” → “Diagnostics” → “Collect Now” → “Download”.
- Extract the
debug/diag_zysh_system/diag_zysh_system.dbgfile from the resulting debug tar.bz2 archive. grep -i image debug/diag_zysh_system/diag_zysh_system.dbg.- Ensure
Current Image numis 1. - If not, then flash a Zyxel OEM firmware upgrade (not an OpenWrt install image), and re-check.
- Once you are sure that the Install the
Current Image numis 1, then install the OpenWrt “factory” image via: “Maintenance” → “Firmware Package”.
...this OpenWrt bug is tracked in https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/14566. Once it is fixed, this section should be removed from the wiki.
Debricking
See the NWA50AX (non-pro) page for some instructions on the use of the Zyxel-customised version of uboot.
You may need to set the Ethernet interface on your connected computer to 100M mode in order to successfully transfer files using tftp without excessive errors causing uboot to abort. If your attached device is Linux based, you may able to use a command like:
ethtool -s eth2 advertise 0x008
... to limit the speed to 100M.
An example serial console session is shown below - this shows the process of installing a Zyxel factory firmware via tftp:

Opening the case
Note: This will void your warranty!
You do not need to remove the case to access to the console serial port on this device.
On the bottom side of the device, there are 4 PH1 screws, remove them, flip the device over and pry the top cover off from the ridge around the edge.
Main PCB:

Serial
How to connect to the Serial Port of this specific device:
Unusually, this device has an externally accessible serial port which is 3.3v “logic level” UART (not RS232).
This takes the form of standard 2.54mm (0.1 inch) spaced header pins, which can be used with 2.54mm “dupont” style female plugs.
Remove the soft plastic dust plug next to the Ethernet port. The pin assignments are:
Pin 1: 3.3v **OUTPUT** ("▲" is printed on the case next to this pin).
Pin 2: Transmit data from AP.
Pin 3: Receive data to AP.
Pin 4: GND/reference.
As with all logic level ports, caution should be exercised when making connections; the connected electronic components could be damaged by incorrect connections, and/or electro static discharge (ESD). The 3.3v output pin should only be connected to adapters which require a voltage input from the target device - usually only (relatively rare) optically or magnetically isolated types - if in doubt, leave pin 1 unconnected.
See also: port.serial for general information about serial port types, cables and adapters etc.
