 +OpenWrt support to snapshot was added on 2023/04/23 with commit https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/097f350aebc542963c7208af4973ff17e01ce76e.
  
 Running OpenWrt on this device requires a slightly different partition layout, because the kernel partition is fixed with 1.5MB and thus too small to run a recent kernel. However, there is enough space and initial installation requires a small modification of one U-Boot variable. As long as the system boots normally, there are no problems with this approach. Installing via TFTP (recovery) restores the variable back to default, forcing the installation of a stock firmware. Running OpenWrt on this device requires a slightly different partition layout, because the kernel partition is fixed with 1.5MB and thus too small to run a recent kernel.
