hi, did you success with hw A4?
My hardware is A3 and load successfully Boot without any problem, i'm using openwrt firmware from device DLINK dir-885L, just change the driver from
brcmfmac-firmware-4366b1-pcie
to
brcmfmac-firmware-4366c0-pcie
and my 3 networks works using this brcfmac firmware , just enable it manualy,

or you can build an image your self using openwrt image builder:

here is the command how to build for dlink-dir 895L .

before flashing you need to downgrade dlink firmware to 1.13 or 1.15 , mine using DIR895LA1_FW115b02

make -j4 image PROFILE=dlink_dir-885l \
PACKAGES="-brcmfmac-firmware-4366b1-pcie brcmfmac-firmware-4366c0-pcie kmod-usb-net-cdc-ncm kmod-usb-net-huawei-cdc-ncm nano wget git kmod-usb-net-cdc-ncm kmod-usb-net-huawei-cdc-ncm luci luci-ssl mwan3 luci-app-mwan3" \
FILES="files"

to install just like flashing dd-wrt

You can use https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=23.05.5&target=bcm53xx%2Fgeneric&id=dlink_dir-885l too.
Click the tiny arrow, put a minus in front of the packages you want to remove, and add the new ones.

but this is my custom sh config to setup led etc, all radio auto on.
