Before you start§

For evaluation only

  1. Ported firmware is an unofficial build. It is meant only for getting to know the system, not for everyday use.
  2. Do not use it on the listed routers as your main solution and do not install it on a device your internet connection or work depends on: failures, loss of settings and a bricked router are possible.
  3. All firmware, scripts and other files are provided “as is”, without warranty or technical support.

Caution!

  1. Do not use the original firmware update files: this may leave the device inoperable.
  2. Do not contact official support or its chats about ported firmware. Doing so may get you banned from our chats.
  3. You bear full responsibility for the risks of flashing your device yourself.
