OpenWRT on X86_64 Again

Written by: Robert R. Russell on Tuesday, January 24, 2023.

Why?

Short answer security updates in OpenWRT 22.03.3 and performance problems related to this bug.

After some indepth research I have two options, either use a git version of OpenWRT until a new version comes out using a 5.15 or newer version of the Linux Kernel, or I can convert the wrt1900ac over to a “dumb” AP and using something else as the router.

I have decided to use OpenWRT on an older X86_64 machine as the primary router. I am using OpenWRT both because it works and my assistant network manager is only familiar with the OpenWRT interface.
