    GL.iNet GL-AR750
    ****************

    Hardware summary
    ================

    The GL-AR750 "Creta" travel router features:

     - QCA9531 @650Mhz SoC
     - dual band wireless: IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac
     - two 10/100Mbps LAN ports and one WAN
     - 128MB DDR2 RAM
     - 16MB NOR Flash
     - supported in OpenWrt by the "ath79" SoC family

    The GL-AR750 has two distinct sets of wifi hardware. The 2.4GHz
    radio is part of the QCA9531 SoC, i.e. it's on the same silicon as
    the CPU, the Ethernet, the USB etc. The device is connected to the
    host via `AHB <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Microcontroller_Bus_Architecture>`_ and it is
    supported in Linux using the ath9k driver. 5GHz wifi
    is provided by a QCA9887 PCIe (PCI embedded) WLAN chip,
    supported by the ath10k driver.

    Installation
    ============

    As with many GL.iNet devices, the stock vendor firmware
    is a fork of OpenWrt, meaning that the binary created by
    :ref:`system-outputs-flashimage` can be flashed using the
    vendor web UI or the U-Boot emergency "unbrick" routine.

    For flashing from an existing Liminix system (we believe that) it
    is necessary to first boot into a :ref:`system-outputs-kexecboot`
    system, otherwise you'll be overwriting flash partitions while
    they're in use - and that might not end well.
