I believe this dethrones the Tenda TX9 as the cheapest AX3000 router on market.

Ticks everything for me spec-wise, and supports meshing.

Unfortunately no review on this product yet but I do own a Wavlink docking station and it's pretty solid.

Order fulfilled by Amazon so expect speedy delivery.

    Interesting. Keen to see some reviews

  • ozbozb on 05/07/2023 - 13:51

    would this work with the nbn box directly or do I need a modem? Also would I notice any differences over the archer vr1600v (speed, latency…) in a studio apt?
    cheers

      The NBN box is the modem.

    • vinni9284 on 05/07/2023 - 14:34

      Yes it will work

      Depends on the technology you have.

      It won't work for FTTB/C or N (with these, you'll need a modem) but it will be if you are over HFC or FTTP.

        This Wavlink router does work with FTTC. nbn give you a NCD VDSL2 modem for FTTC.

          Will work with FTTN/B too if you have a VDSL modem in between (just put that one in bridge).

        • D3HUN on 06/07/2023 - 17:00

          Yeah, as I wrote above "with these, you'll need a modem". So no, it won't work, unless you have a modem.

      No difference.

  • saramark on 05/07/2023 - 13:52

    Can these only mesh with other Wavlink routers? Or can you mix across manufacturers?

      Wavlink.

      Compatible with our AX3000 and AX6000 Mesh WiFi systems for seamless roaming and whole-home coverage.

      That looks.. Ugly! I wouldn't take it for free because of that white ugly design, I hate it that much.. Probably functions well but jesus that's an ugly router!

      • Trishool on 05/07/2023 - 17:06

        My router is in my garage because of FTTP. I never see it, so design isnt an issue. Where do you keep yours?

        • RichardF89 on 05/07/2023 - 17:21

          mine is in living room but I won't notice it

      • simonizmaster on 05/07/2023 - 22:18

    Just be aware there's no proof that Wavlink closed the remote access exploits in their firmware.

    I cant see an openwrt install for this model yet either.

    Hardware is good value, but proceed with extreme caution. For most people on a flat lan, with default dns and such, this device is the "boss" of all your connected devices.

      I cant see an openwrt install for this model yet either.

      It should be fairly trivial to port, but I don't know how locked down this firmware image is. Their previous models aren't locked down as far as I can tell. May require a bootloader replacement if it's bad, but that unlikely unless they've locked it down or are verifying images.

      For most people on a flat lan, with default dns and such, this device is the "boss" of all your connected devices.

      HTTPS and HSTS would hopefully mitigate most attacks based on dns poisoning. Hopefully…

      • MasterScythe on 05/07/2023 - 16:57

        When there's a potential vpn running and your router is internal; MITM attacking a HTTPS cert is just 1 line of code away.

        I love me a cheap router, but I dont love me untested firmware.

  • Namidairo on 05/07/2023 - 14:23

    Most likely hardware configuration based on the firmware image (Which unashamedly is an OpenWrt sysupgrade format image)

    MT7981
    Probably 16mb SPI-NOR
    ??? memory

    As for actual OpenWrt support: Not yet, but probably would be simple to port.

    • dowhatuwant2 on 05/07/2023 - 14:59

      what router do you use?

  • TommyGun on 05/07/2023 - 14:58

    I wonder can this be used as an Access Point with an ASUS 86U as the primary router?

    • Twix on 05/07/2023 - 15:02

      The Wavlink can be setup as an AP. Personally I would get another Asus RT.

  • Justin9mm on 05/07/2023 - 15:33

    Looks great for the money but 2 LAN ports is where they have cut some costs.. If this came up last year when i was looking, I probably would of purchased

        Thank you for educating me on proper English grammar. Now that you have corrected me, my life is whole again.

  • jamba on 05/07/2023 - 15:40

    No USB port for tethering.

  • LaTerrible on 05/07/2023 - 16:20

    Jeez, cheaper than EOP devices, ha. Setup as a remote AP

  • fitr on 05/07/2023 - 17:01

    do i need it ? do i really need it ?

    • slankets on 05/07/2023 - 17:04

      of course you do… at this price

    The Honor router 3 can be had for cheaper.
