TP-Link Archer AX23 / AX1800 Dual Band Wi-Fi 6 Router
*****************************************************
Hardware summary
================
- MediaTek MT7621 (880MHz)
- 16MB Flash
- 128MB RAM
- WLan hardware: Mediatek MT7905, MT7975
Limitations
===========
Status LEDs do not work yet.
Uploading an image via tftp doesn't work yet, because the Archer uboot
version is so old it doesn't support overriding the DTB from the mboot
command. The tftpboot module doesn't support this yet, see
https://gti.telent.net/dan/liminix/pulls/5 for the WiP.
