OpenWrt
No support found. Checked against OpenWrt's own Table of Hardware, which carries no qualifying row for this model. That is a weaker statement than "this router cannot run OpenWrt" and a much stronger one than silence.
No ToH row, across all 44 GL.iNet rows. It carried the support flag until this audit purely through a rule since retracted, that OpenWrt-based stock firmware implies mainline support.
