yeah, but I'd like to have a dual mesh radio (2x 5Ghz) and use the
2.4Ghz for access.

Also,

This has a USB3 port, any decent 802.11ac USB dongles that are a good
fit for openwrt/lime with removable antennas?

There is no decent USB WiFi dongle AFAIK (some ath9k_htc or RT3572 I've
tested work but not as stable as I'd like).

If someone knows about one partially working in 802.11s mode, please share.

Really via TFTP? I read about it on the owrt forum but I thought that was a leftover from the default owrt forum place placeholder. Can you send us the link to the video?

actually, I found a teardown on youtube. u.fl connectors inside which
is works for me.

Also, there's a functional serial console as well, might make flashing
a bit easier, youtube video shows option to load a new firmware via
TFTP.

I would put these in nema cases, so if there are headers inside that
would be good enough. ideally, a picture of the inside of the device
would be amazing.

As far as i know the 3G is the only one supported by openwrt but if anyone wants to try out the others that would be of great help to the community, although beware of the limitations of the others.

Keep in mind xiaomi has done a great job of making it a pain to flash this router in software [without taking them apart] so you need to physically register every device on their website and download an SSH package to flash on the devices. The SSH package is actually seemingly universal, however the password generation is still algorithmic and we don't know how they're generated. If anyone finds a solution, no registration would be needed, simply:

1] flash dev firmware on device
2] flash ssh package on device [one package works for all, you can use mine if you'd like, we can make it available online as well]
3] enter ssh shell via device-specific password [to be generated via as-of-yet-unknown algo]
4] flash owrt / lime

If anyone out there tries them out please report back here: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/status-updates-on-xiaomi-router-3g-mi-r3g/25883

@dan i know right! I'm so excited!

I just tested these out the other day but i plan to put them to work real soon.

The antennas don't seem to be removable, but I'll have our hardware guy take a look at them!
