It seems the packages and dependencies fit. There was a warning about padding though.
You can get it at separate in the directory 19.07.2-targets-ath79-tiny-luci-upnp.

Holy cow! you nailed it. Thanks
I'm linking your address: https://openwrt.ashus.net/19.07.2-targets-ath79-tiny-luci-upnp/
One question, does that compilation have the relayd? or just UPnP?
Having two options is nice because some people may rather use UPnP more frequent that a range extender.
Thanks again
You're welcome. There are both relayd and UPnP in these builds (as attached config file and readme says). But next version builds will again be with relayd only. Honestly those warnings on compilation mean the size may be too close to the limit.
I tried to avoid direct linking because old versions will have to go away from the server someday and URL for replacements will be different.
Indeed.
One question, is it difficult to compile? Any ideas for beginners?
Well difficult - yes and no.
You need to set up an environment for the compilation - in my case Debian in virtual machine.
Then you follow the guide here:
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/quickstart-build-images
First build is the hardest - when you need to get it working on 4MB devices (tiny) and remove unneeded parts. And have the nerve to try it in your device. My first tries had some LuCI parts, but webserver component was incomplete, so I had to flash again using SSH. You can use my config from build folder and start from there.
The main purpose of this effort was to give out working compiled builds for those who don't have the time or skill for this and just need secure up-to-date version with web interface on their old routers.
I see. I haven't started that journey yet but would be nice to help people like you in this regard. I still have a few WR841 (various revisions) around. They're hard to kill 
Even though they have a few resources, they're playing fine non-stop.

–I'm glad you have the point. Lots of people are still using these devices because is what they have.
If I change the ROM chip to an 8MB one, do I have to compile another firmware or am I able to use the ones you've compiled?
I guess the images could work, but I never tried to replace ROM chip. Maybe you won't be able to install more packages though, because opkg might be partially removed.
I see, maybe I could install the stock version for that WR841. Last time I tried, the router did not come up. Kept in a boot loop.
I cannot access your site from 1st post (timeout). Edit: Working again...
Is there an image for TL-WR841N v9? I want to run combined AP/managed mode (not DumpAP).
Edit: There is an v9 image indeed....
Sorry, I'm experiencing a very specific bug with pfSense firewall and was trying to pinpoint the problem and minimize outage for other clients on network while traffic rush hours lasted. The result was longer outage from outside. The site is up now.
Generally if it's down again, it will be up again in 8 hours tops.
Would be nice to work on these too. But unfortunately, they haven't been updated to 18.06.8 yet.

They have been like that since long. Having them with SQM at least guarantees a little bit of extra juice.
Any luck for MR3420v2? can you make a snapshot for it? Thanks for your work with all the devices.
Sorry, due to reasons mentioned on OpenWrt wiki, you shouldn't expect any releases for this device. Also I'm not the right one to ask this.
OpenWRT 19.07.3 compiled. Download location is almost the same - just another directory.
I've tried 19.07.2-targets-ath79-tiny-luci-upnp and 19.07.3-targets-ath79-tiny-luci on tplink_tl-mr3420-v1 - it works.
I've noticed that MAC's of LAN and WAN was swapped one with another.
Thank you!
Have you tried original 18-06-8 image for 841?https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.8/targets/ar71xx/tiny/
It includes LuCI and opkg, and you can try to add SQM according to the manual.
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/traffic-shaping/sqm
Hi, I know it is possible but, the custom build had all extra goodies without opkg. Therefore, it would be nice to have the latest bug fixing build of 18. with the extra packages.

Hi guys,
Apologies for pushing it again but does these builds work with TP-Link archer c60v2?
The router you mentioned doesn't even need 4MB image as it has 8MB flash. Please follow the guides found on page for your device.
