How do I Install OpenWRT on the Xiaomi AX3200

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hello! I bought a Xiaomi AX3200 and I wanted to install OpenWRT on it because it doesn't natively support OpenVPN protocol. (If you know a way to get my router to support OpenVPN without OpenWRT, I'd be thankful)

Today I read the instructions after procrastinating ( https://openwrt.org/toh/xiaomi/ax3200 ) and I find them confusing. Is there a simple way to install OpenWRT with just the router and a computer? If there is, Please give me a step by step guide.

Also, if there isn't a simple way, please recommend me a $30-$50 router

You have read the instructions: for this device the answer is no. If you want to buy a device and install OpenWrt on it, check the wiki before. Some devices are very easy to install, and some are tricky. Well, yours is tricky :face_with_spiral_eyes:.

Cudy WR3000 or 3000S for example. One may add other references.
