INSTRUCTIONS: To flash your firmware just upload the .w file for your model that you find here to the webui. After flashing from stock or from 386.x I would recommend a reset to factory. Going back to stock or previous versions is always possible. For questions please use the forum or the chat (links in the main page)

Known issues:

• To setup AiMesh the first time you need an ethernet cable. After the first pairing it's not required anymore.
• TUF images without TUF UI won't be detected by GameFirst.
