OpenWRT support for TP-Link MR3020 & MR3040
Posted: 08 Jul 2021, 10:49
Hi
I am a newbie who recently stumbled upon qDslrDashboard while searching for a wireless remote solution for my Canon EOS 550D DSLR.
I have a spare TP-Link MR3020 router which I was originally thinking of flashing with OpenWRT. However I am now a bit nervous of doing this as the OpenWRT website warns that “This device is NOT RECOMMENDED for future use with OpenWrt due to low flash/ram. DO MOT BUY DEVICES WITH 4MB FLASH /32 MB RAM if you intend to flash an up-to-date and secure OpenWrt version (18.06 or later) onto it! See 4/32 warning for details”.
Would appreciate any advice on the implication of this warning and if it is still advisable to go ahead. Thanks in advance.
