Official LED layout, from left to right:
[power] [internet] [wps] [wifi] [lan3/2/1] [wan]
Redefinition for OpenWrt:
[power]: used for led-boot, led-failsafe, and led-running
[internet]: used for WAN RX/TX indication
[wps]: used for led-upgrade
[wifi] and [lan3/2/1]: unchanged
[wan]: used for WAN link indication
Installing OpenWrt:
- Setup a tftp server on your PC. Copy
xxx-preloader.bin, xxx-bl31-uboot.fip and
xxx-initramfs.itb to tftp root directory.
- Connect to the router via ssh or telnet,
username: useradmin, password is the web
login password of the router.
- Backup all critical flash partitions with
the following commands where x.x.x.x is
the IP of your PC.
IP=x.x.x.x
cd /dev
for d in /sys/class/mtd/mtd?; do
if [ "$(cat $d/name)" = "BL2" ]; then
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r bl2.img -p $IP
elif [ "$(cat $d/name)" = "FIP" ]; then
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r fip.bin -p $IP
elif [ "$(cat $d/name)" = "Factory" ]; then
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r factory.bin -p $IP
fi
done
for d in /sys/devices/virtual/ubi/ubi0/ubi0_*; do
[ "$(cat $d/name)" != "customer" ] && continue
tftp -l $(basename $d) -r customer -p $IP
break
done
- Flash with the following commands:
cd /tmp
tftp -r xxx-preloader.bin -g x.x.x.x
tftp -r xxx-bl31-uboot.fip -g x.x.x.x
mtd write xxx-preloader.bin spi0.0
mtd write xxx-bl31-uboot.fip FIP
mtd erase ubi
- Set a static ip(192.168.1.254) for your PC.
And then reboot the router. It will run
initramfs image automatically.
- After openwrt boots up, perform sysupgrade
via web UI.
Reverting to the vendor firmware:
- Setup a tftp server on your PC with ip
address 192.168.1.254. And make sure
bl2.img, fip.bin, factory.bin and customer
are located in tftp root directory.
- Power off the router.
- Press and hold WPS key, then power on
the router.
- Release WPS key, when internet/wifi/wps
leds are blinking.
- Wait until internet/wifi/wps leds light
up, power off the router.
- Press and hold reset key, power up the
router, release reset key 15s later.
- Connect to http://192.168.1.1, now you
can upload vendor .bin firmware.
Uboot netconsole:
Uboot netconsole can be enabled by WPS
or reset key.
- Setup a linux PC with ip 192.168.1.254.
Open a new terminal and execute
'stty -isig -echo cbreak; nc -lup 6666'
- Press and hold WPS(or reset) key, then
power on the router.
- Release key once internet/wifi/wps leds
are all on.
NOTE: don't hold the key more than 5s
after internet/wifi/wps leds on, or it
will try to revert to vendor firmware.
- 5s later, uboot bootmenu will show on
the terminal.

This AX3000 flying saucer-shaped device is sold under a few names:
- Widelantech WAP430X
http://www.widelantech.com/?m=home&c=View&a=index&aid=131
- Felicomm
- UeeVii UAP200 (sold on amazon.com)
True name, as marked on the PCB and as appears in the DTS, is WAP430X.
Hardware:
- SoC: Mediatek MT7981B
- RAM: 256MiB DDR3
- ROM: 16MiB NOR flash (Winbond 25Q128JVSQ)
- Wired: one GbE RJ45 port
- Wireless: Mediatek MT7976CN DBDC
- Antennas: Internal (two 2.4 GHz 4.5 dBi, three 5 GHz 6 dBi)
- GPIO: two blue LEDs (status, WLAN), one button (reset)
- Power: DC5521 (12V) or 802.3af PoE (48V 0.3A)
- UART: J500 on PCB [3v3] (Rx) (Tx) (Gnd), 115200n
Original firmware is GECOOS 8.0_2024081000, a fork of OpenWrt 21.02
created by Widelantech. All ports are closed except 443 (web management
interface) and 80 (redirects to 443). UART is locked down, but U-Boot
bootloader is friendly.
Installation is done via UART (see note below).
Method 1: press any key during boot to enter MTK U-Boot bootloader,
then choose option 2 (Upgrade firmware) and upload sysupgrade binary
via TFTP (or via Xmodem).
Method 2: put sysupgrade binary on a webserver (http, not https); after
GECOOS loads, choose option 4 (固件在线升级 = online firmware upgrade)
in the menu and enter the URL to the sysupgrade binary.
Note: GECOOS has a slick web management, and firmware can be uploaded
at https://6.6.6.6/#/system/sysupgrade but it's still not clear how to
convert the sysupgrade binary to a factory binary accepted by the web
interface (WIP).

The initramfs.trx image can be flashed from the web interface of factory
firmware.
Unfortunately, the default boot command of the bootloader does not load
the ramdisk in the FIT image. This means that the image can only be
built when the option TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS_SEPARATE is disabled.

Specifications:
SOC: MT7986AV
RAM: 512MB DDR4
Flash: 128MB SPI NAND
Ports: 4 LAN (1G) & 1 WAN (2.5G)
WIFI: MT7976PN + MT7975N
LEDs: 8 (STATUS, WIFI, WAN, LAN1, LAN2, LAN3, LAN4, PWR)
USB: 1 (3.0)
MAC table, same as stock firmware:
LAN: 80:3F:5D:xx:xx:x1 partition "hw" at 0x44e (ASCII)
WAN: 80:3F:5D:xx:xx:x2 partition "hw" at 0x460 (ASCII)
2G: 80:3F:5D:xx:xx:x3
5G: 80:3F:5D:xx:xx:x4
* Installation with OEM WebUI:
Note: Make sure PC is connected on LAN1 port. The OEM firmware has an unknown root password and settings are kept after upgrading firmware. Therefore, a customized Openwrt firmware is needed to remove the root password on login, by adding `passwd -d root` to /etc/init.d/bootcount. The WebUI does a filename check so the customized firmware is named accordingly.
1. Download modified firmware file `WAVLINK_WN536AX6-A_M36AX6_V250320-WO-437baca-modified.bin` from https://github.com/ses1er/firmware-misc/tree/main/wavlink/wl-wn536ax6a
2. Log into WebUI on default IP: http://192.168.20.1
3. Browse to More (top menu) -> System -> Firmware Upgrade.
4. Under `Local Upgrade` section, check the device to be upgraded and upload downloaded modified firmware. Click `UPLOAD FILE`, then `APPLY`
5. Wait about 2 minutes (ignore progress bar), and browse to http://192.168.20.1. You should see LUCI login page. Username is root and no password.
6. Browse to `System -> Backup/Flash Firmware`, click on `Flash Image`, click `Browse` and locate `openwrt-mediatek-filogic-wavlink_wl-wn536ax6-a-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin` file.
7. Uncheck `Keep settings and retain the current configuration` and click `Continue`.
8. Router will now be set to IP 192.168.1.1 which is the Openwrt default.
* Installation with UART:
Note: Having UART connected while cold booting the device will result in a kernel panic when initializing wifi. I've found this workaround:
1. Power off the device and ensure UART is not connected to PC.
2. Power up the device, when lights come on, plug in UART.
3. Warm boots and soft restarts will not cause kernel panic for the duration of device being powered on. Repeat steps for subsequent cold boots.
1. Configure TFTP server with IP 192.168.1.66. Copy `openwrt-mediatek-filogic-wavlink_wl-wn536ax6a-initramfs.itb` to TFTP root.
2. Interrupt boot by pressing 0.
3. Run the following in Uboot console: `setenv serverip 192.168.1.66; setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1; tftpboot 0x46000000 openwrt-mediatek-filogic-wavlink_wl-wn536ax6-a-initramfs.itb; bootm`
4. Transfer `openwrt-mediatek-filogic-wavlink_wl-wn536ax6-a-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin` to device:
(`scp -O openwrt-mediatek-filogic-wavlink_wl-wn536ax6-a-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/`)
5. Run the following on device: `sysupgrade -n /tmp/openwrt-mediatek-filogic-wavlink_wl-wn536ax6-a-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin`

Limitation: Triggering the WLAN LED for activity on both phy0 (2.4GHz) and phy1 (5GHz)
----------
Currently, the UCI doesn't support triggering a single LED for activity
on multiple WLAN interfaces. As a temporary workaround, the LED is
configured to only indicate activity on `phy1`. If you wish to monitor
`phy0` instead, you must change the device from `phy1-ap0` to `phy0-ap0`
in the LuCI LED configuration.

The imagebuilder is not intended to build initramfs images. Some
profiles attempt to do this and succeed, due to buildroot leaking
the initramfs-kernel into staging_dir; others attempt it, but fail
due to not having initramfs binaries present in the imagebuilder.
Fix this by adding an explict guard around the unsupported generation
of the initramfs images. This saves space and time during imagebuilder
runs, fixes those that are currently broken and protects against future
breakage for profiles that inadvertently work now.

Fan Control
------------
The fan speed is controlled by writing a value from 0 to 2 to the
`fan1_target` file.
```
cd /sys/devices/platform/gpio-fan/hwmon/hwmon2
echo '0' > fan1_target // off
echo '1' > fan1_target // slow
echo '2' > fan1_target // fast
```
Limitation: Enabling Wi-Fi 6E
----------
Wi-Fi 6E (6GHz) does not work out of the box on LuCI.
After installation, you need to configure a few settings in the `radio1`
and `default_radio1` sections of the `/etc/config/wireless`.
Once you have made these changes, you can enable and use Wi-Fi 6E.
In the `radio1` section, you need to add three common options:
- band: must be set to `6g`
- country: a valid country code for the 6GHz band
- channel: a preferrend scanning channel (PSC) for 6GHz
In the `default_radio1` section, you need to add the SSID and key:
- ssid: The public name of your Wi-Fi network
- key: The Wi-Fi password
- encryption: must be set to either `sae` for WPA3 or `owe` for OWE
(open network)
Example:
```
config wifi-device 'radio1'
...
option band '6g'
option country 'KR'
option channel '37'
...
config wifi-iface 'default_radio1'
...
option ssid 'my_wifi_6e_name'
option key 'my_strong_password1234'
option encryption 'sae'
...
```
Note: A list of all the 6GHz PSC channels:
```
5, 21, 37, 53, 69, 85, 101, 117, 133, 149, 165, 181, 197, 213, and 229
```
Limitation: Maximum Transmit Power
----------
The maximum transmit power is currently broken. In the drop-down menu,
you can only choose between "driver default" and "255 dBm (2147493647
mW)". There is currently no workaround for the issue. Please leave the
maximum transmit power set to "driver default".

mtd9: 00800000 00020000 "storage"
```
1. While in openwrt initramfs environment, back up all the partitions by running the following:
```
cat /dev/mtd0 > /tmp/bl2.bin
cat /dev/mtd1 > /tmp/u-boot-env.bin
cat /dev/mtd2 > /tmp/factgory.bin
cat /dev/mtd3 > /tmp/fip.bin

cat /dev/mtd5 > /tmp/dual.bin
cat /dev/mtd6 > /tmp/pot.bin
cat /dev/mtd7 > /tmp/ubi.bin
cat /dev/mtd8 > /tmp/ubi1.bin
cat /dev/mtd9 > /tmp/storage.bin
```
2. Transfer files to client PC for safekeeping. On client PC, run `scp -O root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/*.bin ./`
* Restore to Stock Firmware:
1. Boot to openwrt initramfs env.
2. Confirm layout matches as follows by running `cat /proc/mtd`. Ensure dev `mtd7` is named `ubi`:
```
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00100000 00020000 "bl2"
mtd1: 00080000 00020000 "u-boot-env"
mtd2: 00200000 00020000 "factory"
mtd3: 00200000 00020000 "fip"
mtd4: 00020000 00020000 "prod"
mtd5: 00100000 00020000 "dual"

mtd7: 06400000 00020000 "ubi"
mtd8: 06400000 00020000 "ubi1"
mtd9: 00800000 00020000 "storage"
```
3. Detach `ubi` partition - `ubidetach -p /dev/mtd7`
4. Transfer stock firmware's `ubi.bin` to router from client PC: `scp -O ubi.bin root@192.168.1.1/tmp/`
5. Format and replace with backup `ubiformat /dev/mtd7 -y -f /tmp/ubi.bin`
6. Reboot and you should now be back on stock firmware.
* LEDS:
LED color can be controlled by specifying values in GRB format in `/sys/class/leds/rgb:status/multi_intensity`. Default is `255 255 255` (white).
Example: `echo '75 0 130' > /sys/class/leds/rgb:status/multi_intensity`
LED brightness can be changed by specifying the value from 0-255 in /sys/class/leds/rgb:status/brightness. Default is `255` (full brightness).
Example: `echo 100 > /sys/class/leds/rgb:status/brightness`
For persistence across reboots, put the relevant command(s) in /etc/rc.local.
* Notes:
root access on stock firmware:
Before flashing openwrt, and while in openwrt initramfs env:
1. Mount /dev/ubi0_2: `mkdir /tmp/ubi0_2; mount -t ubifs /dev/ubi0_2 /tmp/ubi0_2`
2. Modify `/tmp/ubi0_2/upper/etc/passwd` and change line with `root:x:0:0...` to `root::0:0...`, remove the `x`.
3. Save and reboot.
4. You should now be able to log in with root and empty password while booted in stock firmware.
While on Openwrt, subsequent upgrades can be made by sysupgrade, or via Luci. UART should not be necessary unless you want to revert to stock firmeware.

Important notes
---------------
The device is supplied in two variants.
The main difference is the size of the mtd5 (ubi)
partition in the flash layout: 64M or 112M.
112M version: Has ImmortalWrt firmware installed with LuCI WebUI.
64M version: Has stock firmware based on OpenWrt,
with the WaveLink/GL.iNet WebUI and older U-Boot
compared to the 112M version.
Flash instructions for 112M version
-----------------------------------
Follow the standard OpenWrt sysupgrade procedure without saving data.
Use the clt-r30b1-112m-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin image.
All checks should pass - don't proceed if a "not supported"
warning is issued.
Flash instructions for 64M version
----------------------------------
WebUI Method:
1. Prepare the upgrade image with clt-r30b1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
using the script: make_staged_upgrade_tar.sh
or use the prepared image: staged_openwrt_upgrade.bin
Downloaded from:
https://github.com/andros-ua/owrt-misc/tree/main/clt-r30b1
2. Install the prepared image using the stock WebUI update page.
3. Press and hold the reset button after reboot
to wipe the stock config and gain access.
SSH Method:
1. Connect via SSH using dg:ivanlee credentials.
2. Upload the clt-r30b1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin image.
3. Use the command: sysupgrade -n
All checks should pass - don't proceed if a "not supported"
warning is issued.
Return to stock
---------------
Flash a backup of the ubi mtdblock (mtd5)
using the OpenWrt sysupgrade method.
Recovery
--------
Both variants:
Connect UART and use the U-Boot menu to flash the firmware image
or boot an OpenWrt initramfs image.
112M with newer U-Boot:
Power on the router while pressing the mesh button for 3 seconds.
The U-Boot Flash WebUI will be available at http://192.168.1.1
