Hey guys,

The whole UniFi AC range (initial support got added in commit cede06cebc) only has sysupgrade images available, which means, if you break stuff, you need to flash Ubiquiti's own firmware first through TFTP, and only after that you're able to reinstall OpenWrt again. Since newer Ubiquiti images (after March 2017 it seems) also lack the mtd command necessary to flash OpenWrt, I was wondering why there's only sysupgrade images. After all, Ubiquiti might pull those older firmwares at any time, and that would mean people which buy these devices would be unable to install OpenWrt on them.

The initial commit doesn't contain any motivation for leaving out factory images; but given what needs to be done, it seems to me they would be quite a useful addition?

Cheers

Stijn
