The Olimex RT5350F-OLinuXino-EVB was supported by OpenWrt from 15.05 on the ramips/rt305x target, but its last supported release has reached end of life. Its WiFi 4 (N) wireless on the rt2800pci driver rates fair for open-source driver support (0.50/1.0), installation is rated moderate, and we have no current US retail listing for it.

Installing OpenWrt on the RT5350F-OLinuXino-EVB

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: U-Boot TFTP + serial recovery, see devicepage.

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