Installing OpenWrt on the LAN Turtle
Installation on this device is rated easy. You can flash it from the stock web interface without opening the case or using a serial cable. Documented methods: Sysupgrade, see git-commit.
Flashing third-party firmware can brick a router and usually voids the warranty. Always check that the firmware image matches your exact hardware version.
