Hi there,
according to the compatibility list I'll need a Archer C20 v1 or v4 to run OpenWRT.
What abaout other versions, especially the newer v5?
Is it "just" a matter of compiling a suitable binary or is the hardware too different to run OpenWRT?
THX in advance
Frank
Okay, that sounds quite promising.
Has anybody got a v5 C20 up and running?
Do you already have a v5 or do you want to buy a v5?
I ordered a device without knowing which hardware revision it will be. But I suppose I'll get rather a new one.
So I asked just in case.
And I will share my experience, of course.
The C20 arrived today. It's Hardware Revision is v4.1.
So I'll give it a try now...
Well, it's running OpenWRT now.
I just have to figure out how to configure it correctly. I'd like to use the router as a wireless client for several devices attached to its LAN ports.
Great to hear you got it installed ok. I’d suggest starting a separate thread if you still have further questions or issues to solve.

That's fine for me.
I found some older instructions for configuring a Wifi Bridge, managed to figure out what had to be changed and got my new bridge happily running now.
