TP-Link EAP245 v1 with OpenWrt 22.03 or 23.05?

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

I have a TP-Link EAP245 v1 router (Qualcomm Atheros QCA956X) with OpenWrt 21.02.7 installed. It works perfectly.
Can I upgrade the router to OpenWrt 22.03 or better to OpenWrt 23.05?
I am afraid to brick the router because I am not sure if the EAP245 v1 is supported for these versions.
Thanks for your advice.

It is https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=23.05.5&target=ath79%2Fgeneric&id=tplink_eap245-v1.

You need to either upgrade in 2 steps (->22.03.7->23.05.5) and hope to migrate config or re-type config after one end-to-end upgrade from saved backup file (do not dare to restore 21.x conf onto 23.x)

Thanks. It works perfectly.
Upgrade 22.03.7 then 23.05.5.
