Overview

  • According to Class II Permissive Change documentation submitted
to the FCC on 06/27/2016, this router is "electrically identical" to the
WRT1200AC v1. All information is copied from that device entry.

Per Linksys (LinksysCares@linksys.com), regarding the WRT1900ACS v1 vs v2, the only difference between revisions where the Wi-Fi driver looks up the wireless power tables. Newer devices have the power table + region code embedded, older rev. mvebu routers should use the power table specified in dts.
