Wow! I'm excited to hear someone has the WAX206 running openWRT. I've been trying to get more of my networking gear running that, but since the WAX206 isn't officially supported I hadn't looked into things further.

How much of a pain was it to compile? The post doesn't seem to describe any changes made (understandable, most people probably don't care) but there must be some changes if you had to compile it yourself, right?



It’s easy, you just have to clone the fork with the support and then select the packages and compile it. The fork is this: https://github.com/boretom/openwrt-fork/tree/wax206/flashabl...

If you want I can send you my image.


I will try building it, since I also want to get some experience for making it run on my Mikrotik RB5009. But if I run into issues I may take you up on that offer! :)

Thanks!


Yeah correct, try before is the right way!
