Flashing

Unlike the TP-LINK TL-WA730RE v2, this device lacks a power button and does have support for DD-WRT.

I have managed to get OpenWrt working on this, all I needed to do was to flash the firmware for the WA701ND v1 , as they are are identical hardware wise. This does not include a WebUI, so you have to be connected to the internet in order to get the WebUI. This is completely unofficial! George109 (talk)
