 + 
 +Preliminary image can be obtained from [[https://github.com/ianchi/openwrt/releases/tag/wavlink1200-v0.1|here]] 
 + 
 +  * Set host computer's ip to 192.168.10.100 
 +  * Save sysupgrade image file as 'firmware.bin' 
 +  * Setup tftp server on computer, serving the file from root 
 +  * Connect your computer to the LAN port of the WAVLINK router via an Ethernet cable 
 +  * Press and hold the reset button while powering on the router 
 +  * Keep it pressed for ten seconds 
 +  * Wait for firmware to be uploaded
  
-A partial working version can be taken from: 
-[[:toh:asus:rp-n53]] 
  
-  - download https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/19.07.4/targets/ramips/mt7620/openwrt-19.07.4-ramips-mt7620-rp-n53-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin +===== GPL Sources =====
-  - rename to firmware.bin +
-  - set host IP to 192.168.10.100 +
-  - start tftp server +
-  - connect power to the router +
-  - over UART wait for uBoot menu +
-  - select option "2: Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP." +
-  - done+
  
-Firmware from the Netgear [[:toh:netgear:ex3700_ex3800]] or EX6120 has also been tested workingand adds 5GHz WiFi support. This is flashed in the same way as the abovePlease allow a few minutes on first boot for SSH key generation & flash initialization. If first boot failsreflash the firmware bin and the subsequent boot should succeed.+Available via FTP here: [[ftp://ftp.pearl.de/treiber/NX4812_open_source.tar.gz|GPL Sources]]\\
