1. Open the AP to get access to the board. Connect RX, TX and GND.
2. Power on the AP, and short the CS pin of the SPI flash with
one of the APs GND pins.
3. Transfer the initramfs image with TFTP
(Default server IP is 192.168.0.120)
# tftpboot factory.ubi
4. Flash the rootfs partition
# flash rootfs
5. Reboot the AP
# reset

Netgear WAX214 is a 802.11 ax dual-band AP
with PoE. (similar to Engenius EWS357APV3)
Specifications:
• CPU: Qualcomm IPQ6010 Quad core Cortex-A53
• RAM: 512MB of DDR3
• Storage: 128MB NAND (Macronix MX30UF1G18AC)
• Ethernet: 1x 1G RJ45 port (QCA8072) PoE
• WIFI:
2.4GHz: Qualcomm QCN5022 2x2 802.11b/g/n/ax 574 Mbps PHY rate
5GHz: Qualcomm QCN5052 2x2 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax 1201 PHY rate
• LEDs:
4 x GPIO-controlled LEDs
- 1 Power LED (orange)
- 1 LAN LED (blue)
- 1 WIFI 5g LED (blue)
- 1 WIFI 2g LED (blue)
black_small_square Buttons: 1x soft reset
black_small_square Power: 12V DC jack or PoE (802.3af )
An populated serial header is onboard, format is
1.25mm 4p (DF13A-4P-1.25H)
RX/TX is working, bootwait is active, secure boot is not
enabled.
The root password of the stock firmware is unknown,
but failsafe mode can be entered to reset the password.
Installation Instructions:
- obtain serial access
- stop auto boot (press "4", Entr boot command line
interface)
- setenv active_fw 0 (to boot from the primary rootfs,
or set to 1 to boot from the secondary rootfs
partition)
- saveenv
- tftpboot the initramfs image
- bootm
- copy
openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-netgear_wax214-squashfs-factory.ubi
to the device
- write the image to the NAND:
- cat /proc/mtd and look for rootfs partition (should
be mtd11,
or mtd12 if you choose active_fw 1)
- ubiformat /dev/mtd11 -f -y
openwrt-qualcommax-ipq60xx-netgear_wax214-squashfs-factory.ubi
- reboot
Note: the firmware is senao-based. But I was unable to build
a valid senao-header into the image.
Maybe they changed the header format and senaoFW isn't
working any more.

Introduce support for the Qualcomm IPQ60xx SoC. WiFi support still has
to be handled and correctly fix hence this is currently marked as
source-only to have a solid base to progress on correct support of this
and hope Upstream QUIC publish newers ath11k drivers for this SoC.
