Nighthawk X6 - AC3200 Smart WiFi Router
While not really represented well in the infobox, this is a tri-radio device - all radios
- (2x 5GHz [11an+ac], 1x 2.4GHz [11bgn]) used are BCM43602 (FullMAC)
- BCM43602 is supported in the mainline Linux kernel by brcmfmac
"U12H315T20", "801726", and "GP REV 1" is silkscreened on the board.
