Wireless Joint

I tried a WE1026-5G which uses the same 2.4Ghz chip as the WE826 and found the wifi signal was somewhat weaker than my Asus RT-AC68U using factory firmware. However, the download speeds I got from both were about the same.

I also looked at a Xiaomi Mini which uses the same MT7620 chip and the ...

What is the date on the firmware you are using?

If I know that I can see which build was used and see if there is something wrong with the Wifi driver.

There have been reports of poor wifi using this chip set but I need to test and see what is happening myself using similar hardware.

There is a new image for the WG3526 now available using OpenWrt 18.06.

Those of you that have to use the Recovery Mode on a WE | WG router will have the pleasure of looking at a Chinese language screen. While it isn't hard to figure out what should happen, it is nice to know exactly what is being said here.

I've translated the recovery page so you can see what is what ...

Is there a WE3526 build from that? The one that's on the Ofmodemsandmen is from Dec 17 for the WE3526

This uses an older snapshot build that doesn't seem to have the problems later ones do but has the very latest ...

I'll build you one using and older snapshot version from April that has been updated to the latest ROOter scripts.

There are issues with newer snapshot versions.

What firmware are you running?

Some snapshot builds seem to have a bug introduced that affects Wifi on ZBT routers.

There is a new ROOter build for the WE1326 based on the April snapshot build system but with the newest ROOter scripts in it.

This should have working Wifi and the best modem support of any of the WE1326 images.
