Installation:
* Flash the factory image through the stock web interface, or TFTP to
the bootloader. NMRP can be used to TFTP without opening the case.
* U-Boot allows booting an initramfs image via TFTP as follows:
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
setenv serverip 192.168.1.100
tftpboot openwrt-mediatek-mt7622-netgear_wax206-initramfs-recovery.itb
bootm
Known Limitations:
* The 2.5G WAN port labeled 'wan' only works for speeds up to 1G at the
moment. If connected to a multi-gig port the speed has to be manually
set to 1G/full either for the switch port or in OpenWrt. For example
add the following to /etc/rc.local to set it on boot:
/usr/sbin/ethtool -s wan speed 1000 duplex full
Revert to stock firmware:
* Flash the stock firmware to the bootloader using TFTP/NMRP.
