I have come across an unsigned firmware from TP-Link for this router (https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/593722). I began exploring the .bin file and found a squashfs-root folder containing the entire operating system.

Do you have any ideas on how I can help speed up the process of adding OpenWrt to the AX53 v1?
