Exploring my KEVIN and upgrading to 6GHz WiFi! (Davolink Minions Wifi 6E Router)

You've probably seen Kevin hanging out in the background of some of my recent videos, so let's take a look and see what we can get for $129. He's rated at 'AXE5400', which in wifi naming means it support 802.11AX (wifi 6), E means it supports the 6Ghz band, and 5400 is the sum of the wifi bandwidth across all bands in absolutely perfect conditions, 5400 isn't that high for tri-band. Despite his low wireless rating he does in fact support 2.5Gbe on both LAN and WAN, although no PoE. He also supports 8 SSIDs per band, and you can either configure all 24 of those individually or configure them as 8 triple pairs. My goal is to eventually run OpenWRT on him. If you're a dev and would like me to do any sort of testing, I'd be happy to help.
