Does stock firmware offer wireless AP mode and have separate SSIDs for 2.4/5-1/5-2?

I'm probably gonna return mine, I don't even have an option to flash firmware in the connectivity option, can only upgrade online, seems manual flashing is non existent even though the guides say so.

Ok, so I got mine and fiddled with it. First, this is a very easy router to unbrick so go ahead and fiddle with the firmware all you want. Unfortunately I was unsuccessful in installing the linksys mx4200v1 firmware as well as installing openwrt for mx4200v1. On openwrt the light turned purple but I couldn't ssh into the router. I guess it can't be hacked into a mesh. Went ahead and purchased the slickdeal mx8000 refurbished that was just posted and will be returning these. Good luck to all and please do post on any different outcomes. Obviously $25 a node for a 4.2gbps Wi-Fi 6 mesh would be a spectacular bargain.
So are you saying this router is not openwrt compatible? I just wanted a router with decent cpu to run a parallel wifi network always connected to VPN

You have to click the CA button at the bottom and you can flash whatever file you want

Not yet supported by openwrt. I'm sure it will be eventually though...

Got the router. Its LN1301. How can you set this in repeater mode? All I see is bridge. Also anyone have a guide for installing openwrt yet?

Thanks.

Would this be an upgrade from a Netgear Nighthawk X4S R7800?

is it worth the hassle to change?

Price looks good, but I'm fairly satisfied with the netgear and have my smart hub / smart home setup and mac filtering all established.

Years ago, I was deep into router comparisons and (thought I) deeply understood specs, benefits, drawbacks, but alas, I haven't stayed in the loop and have a knowledge gap
I can confirm the 3-pack Velop version do support Bridge mode (AX4200 model).

Quote from Azrael_the_Cat :
The intentional radiator portion of the 4200 maybe the same and the digital portion could be completely different. FCC compliance is compulsory but registration with FCC for unintentional radiators is not required. It is possible Linksys used the exact radio design for the intentional radiator portion per the flinging and they self declared compliance for the digital portion which might be different.

purely speculation on my part.
Your profile looks familiar...

So folks what is the verdict? Other than the price, worth keeping?

Need to replace my Asus AC1900 units but If these Linksys units are more hassle for a just a normal user (ala minimal tinkering user) then its worth than will need to find another solution.

What say you, SD experts..?

I am not really interested into making it a mesh, but having OpenWRT support would be nice.

I'm guessing it's looking unlikely? Unless anyone else has tried and had different results.

I'm running a netgear R6330, this is like a REALLY good upgrade for me right?
My current wifi goes through the neighbors house into their backyard (duplex) but just barely, so this would probably improve my connection while I'm back there?

I tried using the v1 squash file but it just bricks the device.
