I installed OpenWrt on my router this week

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I've had a Linsys router that is supported on my table still sealed for like a year and a half putting this off. Was it hard? Is there much to adjust in the set up after or is it kinda just plug and play "plug into modem and set your passwords" type stuff?

It was pretty much plug-and-play.

I downloaded the OpenWrt image (about 6 MB in size) and navigated to the firmware update page on my router's web interface. Selected the image and it took roughly 5-10 minutes to install. All I had to do was update the default SSIDs and its passwords to match what I had before.
