hello friends, Today I want to install open wrt on TP-Link wr841n V13.1 (EU).
But I'm afraid my router will crash. Do I have all the features of the original firmware by installing this firmware?
Are the Wi-Fi & WPS/Reset buttons working properly? Or No 
I only have this router and I want to install Openwrt for VPN capability.
But for a few days now, I have been thinking about what to do if my router breaks down and no longer works.
Do you think I should do this or not?
My Router : TP-LINK WR841N V13.1 (EU)
https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr841nd using TFTP recovery
It'll have more features, or at least the possibility to have more features 
Keep in mind, VPN performance will probably be quite crappy.
Since you are able to use TFTP recovery, going back to stock FW shouldn't be too hard.

This is quite vague, especially given OpenWrt is extendable by installable software.
The button must be programmed/setup - those kinda things are off by default.
If it has enough flash space.
- Your choice. It seems you need to learn a lil' more about OpenWrt to be ready after flashing.
- I wouldn't advise if it's your
- current router for Internet
- the only router you have

If I want to flash my router, how can I go back to the main firmware with tftp?
The same way as when you flash OpenWrt, it's also documented in the link you've been given.

Please explain to me.
Because the site says that the firmware should be edited. But I do not know
No,
it says it have to be stripped if the name of the image contains the word boot,
and then it tells you how to do it.
Have you checked the images available for your router at TP-Link ?

No
I do not know. Please check it out for me
Then you probably shouldn't continue down the OpenWRT road ...
I'm also out of toilet paper.

What should I do after removing the word "boot" from the firmware?
That is not what it says ...
- in case the file name of this firmware file does contain the word “boot” in it, you need to cut off parts of the image file before flashing it:
The following method applies for the V1, V3, V5, V7, V8, V9, V10 and V13 since the bootloader is the same size.
An example of an image file with the word “boot” in it is wr841nv9_en_3_14_4_up_boot(131129).bin.
Cut the first 0x20200 (that is 131,584 = 257*512) Bytes from original firmware:
dd if=orig.bin of=tplink.bin skip=257 bs=512

Sorry I do not understand what you mean. Because my English is weak
Well,
we don't know your language, and the instructions given by us (in english) will be the same as the ones in the wiki anyway ...
