Installing OpenWrt on the DL-WRX36

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

Install is 2-stage: initramfs image, then factory image

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