Were you able to fix the WAN/LAN port issues? Which ports are working correctly?
And my understanding is that they all work, but that the labels are not correct.
They work correctly but LAN1 is now the WAN.
I did the edit and saved it under new_cfe. opened and made sure it held those values. followed through the steps again very patiently but not getting any success. You can tell I am a noob. I am starting to think that I am not changing the two instances you have mentioned. I am using HxD Hex Editor, not sure if that makes any difference.
Its funny though, just got my attention that the firmware version on the router is 3.0.0.4_384_45149-g467037b but its being reported as RT-AC56R (originally RT-AC56U) and still no AiMesh option.
Mine did the same thing until I changed the CFE.
I used CFEEdit to edit because it is simple and lists all options without all the extra undecipherable stuff. You can try to reupload just the CFE that has been changed and see if that works if it doesn't then try to pull the CFE from the router again to see if it really is changed or not.
Steps 1 - 6 above
