It’s been a while that I haven’t uploaded any videos, because I always want to have a router that is not only good also cheap and also supports OpenWrt firmware.
AX6000 is too expensive for me, AC2100 does not support WiFi 6,
I have been waiting for so long,
until today I find a router that is not only good, also not expensive, that is AX3000T.
It costs only 30 40 dollars from online shopping,
It comes with a Mediatek processor,
Most importantly, it is supported by OpenWrt firmware!

greetings from India and thank you for your videos I've been following you since your adventures with MI-R3G and just when i was thinking to upgrade mine with the ax3000T this video arrived :)
haha! I think this one is best value!
I bought AX3200 and AX3000T, both Chinese version, after watching your vids. Thanks for your excellent guide!
Merry Christmas & a very Happy New Year.
thank you, Happy new year!
Hi John after running sysupgrade I cant get an IP and factory reset doesnt work any help plz
Very interesting, new cheap AX Router! Its 42.6 USD at my country though.
yeah it's the best value at the time.
Hy i recently got ax3000t issue facing is after connecting to network its light keep turning orange from blue. What could b issue, and also it's not pairing mihome app.
At the first reboot it ask for a password...can you help me?
Hello, can you help me obtain the TpLink 1201 Open Wrt firmware, version 3, please?
can set vlan ?
hi thanks for your video!
i have an issue with the "nc" command to access the ssh port... can you help?
hmmm you want to install netcat (nc) ?
Can we completely get rid of the switch firmware? so we can recover that space for something else?
maybe you can skip the switch FW with the Open source bootloader? I have another video about that bootloader.
xiaomi router ax3000t can use openwrt looking forward , can it have a guest wifi? please let me know
Can
that design looks so much similar likd the Huawei honor model with WIFI6
true. the foldable antennas.
Hey John. I get an error can you help? When trying to install the image into a temporary file I get the following error: Unable to negotiate with 192.168.31.1 port 22: no matching host key type found. Their offer: ssh-rsa
scp: Connection closed
Any idea? Thanks
i'm not sure why it complains about your key. do you connect with a key pair or password?
i follow your instructions but when i follow boot stock firmware it doesn't work anymore it doesn't provide dhcp ans its orange light randomly blinking 😢 i try set static ip it doesn't work
nvm i follow ur unbrick xiaomi router videos and after reflash stock it came back 😊 thank you
glad that you made it :) @@pnapt
After I reboot it can no longer assign IPs. DCHP server is not working. So I can't even connect via ssh anymore.
Any ideas on that?
I've tried to connect it to my main router as DHCP client and my DHCP server assignes an IP to AX3000T, but I cant ssh into it, connection was refused.
Sorry to hear. I'm surprised a router does not provide DHCP.
if it receives an IP from the main router, why don't you connect a computer to the main router and try opening AX3000T web console via that IP? though I'm not sure if the http service listens on the WAN port or not.
@@john666mactavish i tried but no success.
in the end (I dont really know how but) i managed to perform a hard reset and restored the stock firmware. and got DHCP working again.
maybe the problem was the snapshot version (19/02/2024) i flashed yesterday.
i believe i'm going to wait for a stable version
@@lcbdias yeah true. maybe it's the problem of the firmware.
to anyone that may are facing the same issue I found the solution.
After installing OpenWrt the port immediately next to the power input becomes the WAN port and the rest are the LAN ports. As I was not aware of this fact I was connecting the router to my PC via the WAN port, so it was not assigning a local IP.
Another thing worth to mention is that the official snapshot versions of OpenWrt do not come with Luci pre-installed. So you have to do it manually:
opkg update
opkg install luci
@@lcbdias think this has saved me too thanks!
Hi, can you setup the router without being connected to the internet, or does it need to be joined to the internet first to do this?
you only need internet to download the firmware, you don't need internet to install Openwrt
@@john666mactavish I can't seem to get into the router itself at all, cannot get past initial setup
I've now flashed but have no gui on the router ip address?
@@muttyhc some OpenWrt firmware just don't come with web UI by default.
@@john666mactavish which one does?
Does the mesh still work with openwrt?
no you'll have to install Mesh app in OpenWrt
cant ping or connect to openwrt after flashing :/ “unknown error”
aftes multiples tries it worked :)
I am unable to downgrade, even using miwifirepairtool, is there a solution?
Sorry to hear. I'm not sure how to fix that.
Thanks is the wifi speed good
Sorry I don't know that.
it all depends on the driver. 😂
I feel some change in your accent, traveling to India?
no just because it's funny.
I guess It is impossible for now to downgrade to 1.0.47 (2 months later) because the router is delivered with 1.0.64 as default OS
I just successfully downgraded to 0.47.
just connect to the web interface (unfortunately in chinese) and do like in the video to upload an image manually. There's no security preventing you to do that with an older image.
I accidentally updated to latest before I could get ssh into box. I connected this to a laptop with tftp and dhcp and pressed reset button for 15 seconds. Then check for the file it request and renamed .47 firmware into that. Next time I pressed reset button for 15 secs it took that firmware and installed it. This process is documented on openwrt site also.
Fortunately you can by just simply editing the url when the error message about downgrade comes, you just need to set the parameter « downgrade=1 » to « downgrade=2 » (and if it’s 0, replace with 1)
@@dreozr5422 does the numbers of the version change? i did just what you said and the version numbers didn't change
Hi @johnmactavish1715, can you help me to downgrade from v1.0.64 to v1.0.47? it is not able to downgrade. I changed the number at the end of url from 1 to 2 but it warned me that the firmware file does not exist.
Sorry to hear. I don't know which URL you are talking about?
Thanks man
Have you managed to downgrade to v1.0.47?
Hey, same here. Did you find a workaround?
@@NicolasVuillemin i dont have this router but why dont u use the revert brick method like this th-cam.com/video/WvVIT3gXZak/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dZeGNo2cPNuInAUc
Hello, can you help me obtain the TpLink 1201 V3 Open Wrt firmware, version 3, please?
Sorry but looks like it's not supported?
