Installing OpenWrt on the RT-N10+

Installation on this device is rated moderate. Expect to use a recovery mode, TFTP or a vendor tool rather than a plain web upload.

Flashing third-party firmware can brick a router and usually voids the warranty. Always check that the firmware image matches your exact hardware version.

Hardware versions

The RT-N10+ ships in several hardware revisions with different chipsets. Match the version printed on your device label before flashing.
