TRENDnet TEW-632BRP & TEW-652BRP

WARNING: Later versions of TEW-652BRP have a different chipset (RTL8196x) and are not compatible with OpenWrt. No known way to distinguish versions without opening the packaging.

Here is a table containing different version/chipset of the TrendNet TEW-652BRP product. TEW-632BRP revisions 1.x and 2.x have very subtle difference from 652 and may be considered the same model.

Are all revisions of a version OpenWrt compatible ?

You can easily identify your product by looking at the label on the underside.

Applicable for any others revisions ?

NOTE: Same configuration as TEW-652BRP H/W v1.1R
