Thank you.

Reinstall the stock/vendor firmware and then install openwrt. If you need help reverting, ask in the dd-wrt forums.

Thank you fella's that amswers my question, i will purchase the open-wrt One router and go from there to learn even more and i love open source, so thanks to all of you🙂.

You should read a bit about wifi...

just read.....

Table of Hardware: Ideal for OpenWrt + Wifi6 (802.11ax) supported

 In order to list devices you'll have the best experience with, here we filter for devices that...

    are either 'Available' (are commercially available, i.e. you can buy them today) or 'unknown' (if 'unknown' → search the net for availability first, then please update the data here)
    have at least 16MB Flash (8MB will work, but depending on your usecase 16MB or more will make you happier than 8MB or below.)
    have at least 128MB RAM (64MB will work, but depending on your usecase 128MB or more will make you happier than 64M or below.)

Additional filter criteria:

    WiFi 802.11ax supported

i just copied, there is no button to quote.

so my r9000 supports 2.4 & 5Ghz band, the flint2 says 6Ghz wifi, does it support 2.4 & 5Ghz? I have devices that support 2.4 & 5. Not 6.

as for the link "just read" i dont know what that means, what is filter? all i see is this.

All wifi standards are backwards compatible. You can connect 20 years old 11b 11Mbps client to a modern 250Mbps wifi AX access point in 2.4GHz band
