Note that firmware support is limited as the recent ASUS firmware will reset the router back to its original T mobile.  And then you cannot hack it again to be an AC68U.

thanks, was just reading about that, maybe buy from taobao is ok, and much cheaper

Reboot = No
Factory restore = Not sure. But if the hidden channel disappears after you do a factory restore, just re-enter the codes

is the 68U much better coverage than the huawei router?

You can use script to do it, format usb to ext4, install entware and then go to

https://www.ab-solution.info/

You can always lurk around at SNB https://www.snbforums.com/forums/asuswrt-merlin.42/ too

Sell your WS880 for cheap then get a used RT-AC68U/RT-AC87U/RT-AC88U from Taobao instead
XWRT-VORTEX no longer supports WS880. You will be stuck with an outdated firmware with bugs & security hole

You may say "it's fine even if I use outdated firmware" now but if one day someone managed to hack into your network & siphon your data then that will be the day you regret the bad decision you make today

can share links for this "used RT-AC68U/RT-AC87U/RT-AC88U from Taobao"?
