ZyXEL WAP3205
Supported Versions
Hardware Highlights
Installation
→ Install OpenWrt (generic explanation)
The board is the same one used on the ZyXEL NBG-419N, but has 2 Ethernet ports instead of 4 LAN + 1 WAN. (and has no WiFi on/off switch)
Support for the ZyXEL NBG-419N appeared in r28078, so you can download an Attitude Adjustment (12.09 final) openwrt-ramips-rt305x-nbg-419n-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
image or you can build from the source. See toolchain. Select Ralink RT288x/RT305x
as Target System
and RT305x based boards
as Subtarget
in make menuconfig
.
You should obtain <buildroot dir>/bin/ramips/openwrt-ramips-rt305x-nbg-419n-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
.
The only issue is that the Switch/VLAN configurations let you configure even the ports that are actually unpopulated on the PCB, and obviously LuCI will show the wrong model on the webadmin.
The rest of the installation process is the same as the ZyXEL NBG-419N.
