Linksys EA6700 recommendations?

I have a Linksys EA6700 V1 with Firmware:[ DD-WRT v3.0-r38326 std (01/18/19)] I am wondering what it would take to install firmware with bandwidth control per user/device(not just monitoring). Not just limit speed. As I am looking at many options including OpenWRT and Gargoyle. As I have looked at Open WRT list and find EA3500 and EA8500. I am left to wounder if there is a chance that I could move forward with anything? My only search results give me this page link SECURITY ALERT - Linksys Routers (Under STOCK firmware)! and no other model spicific information that I know of. I do not know how to program / script hardware/software specific devices yet. Need a plug and pray resolve, Thank you.

EA6700 is currently not supported by OpenWrt.

Are you trying to get this device supported by OpenWrt?

…and just to extend the post above, at least the 5 GHz wlan has no chance to 'ever' be supported (well enough to be usable and/ or exceed 54 MBit/s) - and the 2.4 GHz doesn't fare much better either (not sure if brcmsmac does support AP mode at all).
