TP-Link WDR7500 V5

Hello !

I want to upgrade my router with OpenWrt.

Founded topic https://forum.archive.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=44201, but some pages are missing.

Some guys wrote that they converted it to TP-Link WDR7500 V3 - suported by OpenWrt.

Please help me, please !

wdr7500 V5 has a bootloader that prevent installing non tp-link firmware. so you should
first, learn how to replace the bootloader. ideally replace it with 'breed'

second, you should learn how to extract the 'art' from from your current V5, because the 'art position is different from V3.

third, relocate the extracted 'art' to V3's position.

not so easy, a flash programmer is needed. and a hex editor also.

still not discouraged? bon courage.

…fourth, backups, backups and backups of backups, in a safe location.
