Hi there, is there any information about the Archer AX55? Does this use Intel Lantiq?

Any chance of DD-WRT support for this model in the future?

The v1 is Qualcomm IPQ0518 and would require a hardware donation to add support.

Thev2 is Broadcom and will never see support.

Yeah too bad that Broadcom isnt opening up the source for the wifi6 parts.

I have a v1 ax55 so im looking forward to some alternative firmware in the future (hopefully). The AX55 is a good bargain and works pretty well--fantastic bargain.

Hi. I have recently got an AX55, and I am not satisfied with the stock software. I can donate my device to get it supported, but how do I find out if it's v1 or v2?

Ah, I found the information in the System Update section of the router interface - there is an entry called "Hardware Version", which confirms that my device is v. 1.

I have contacted the email address for hardware donations and will proceed according to their instructions.

Greetings to all. I join those who are waiting dd-wrt firmware for ax55. I became the owner of this device, the characteristics and price are very attractive, but the standard firmware is very bad Sad

Well, I can tell you that I sent one of these devices to the DD-WRT team back when I last posted, so maybe you can expect that there has been some work done with it.

Research, make informed decision: R7800, XR450, XR500, R7500v2, EA8500 (serial flash), x86 (one, two, three).

WikiDevi: R7800 (XR450/XR500), R7500v2, EA8500, R9000 (R8900/XR700).

There have been no public code commits for the v1, and if you didn't follow shipping instructions, it was never received -- which has happened many times in the past. Also, newer TP-Link devices are more challenging to port, as seen with C9 v5, which is still not supported. I'll inquire about receipt.

I found a page with source codes for routers, tell me, is this not what we need?

https://www.tp-link.com/ru/support/gpl-code/

https://static.tp-link.com/upload/gpl-code/2022/202208/20220829/GPL_AX55v1.tar.gz

they also write that if this code is not enough, then request it by mail GPL@tp-link.com

Not necessarily. DD-WRT does not use the same kernels and other bits and pieces that stock firmware does.

Nope. And I never received confirmation of receipt if the device was actually donated and received by the developer via email reply,
and @appas never confirmed whether or not the device was received or returned to sender. This is nothing new...

Hello, has there been any updates to this thread topic? Was the donated hardware ever received?

I have Archer AX55 v1.0 hardware and would like to upgrade.
