Netgear X4 R7500

Hi all,

Are there any plans for supporting Openwrt FW for the R7500 V2?  Please kindly response.

Thanks

      According to this, it appears

      According to this, it appears that they changed the Wifi chip in v2, from what I understand, which is likely why the old firmware isnt working

        I'd like to see this, too.

        I'd like to see this, too.  Also, perhaps updating the firmware to Chaos Calmer.   One of the benefits of OpenWRT is the frequency of updates, but this seems to not be happening with these builds.  Am I correct, or is there somewhere I should be looking?  For example, OpenWrt says that Attitude Adjustment is no longer being actively maintained, and yet that's what is available as the most recent for the R7500.
