I know this is a topic that has been discussed but wanted to revisit it. I would be willing to donate a good candidate router for testing Wifi 6. I would be willing to help although I am not exactly a candidate beyond simple tasks and testing. If it is easier to make a monetary donation instead of supplying a router I can do that. About as far as I have gone is to navigate the build process to add a wifi driver in ubuntu. I am definitely not a coder. I am especially interested in building a Mesh network with Wifi 6 DD-WRT. I am not much of an expert and about as deep as I have gone is to configure DD-WRT with a VPN on some old Linksys routers. I am ready to purchase a pair of candidate routers for my home environment that I could test on if I got some feedback on likely candidate routers.

I am assuming that you have read:
https://dd-wrt.com/donations/

and you mentioned that the topic has been discussed before...

What you could do is look through the build database to see if any routers have wifi 6 that are supported... if there are not any, then you can contact about the payment/donation, but it will take time...

Wifi6 is nowhere near being supported by DD-WRT. Please consider donating hardware, but do not expect Broadcom devices to be supported. I am sure there is likely a thread that I missed, but...
