Hi All,

I was planning on creating a Mesh Network with 2 (relatively) basic routers.

  • D Link_DIR 825 (Hardware Version: R1) Software V1.01 - Supplied by afrihost some time back
  • Cudy WR1300 (Hardware Version: v3) - Bought independently for another use case.

I was able to flash the Cudy with a specific version of OpenWRT supplied by Cudy themselves (The open WRT versions didn't work)

I was also able to acquire a few files for the DIR 825 but with no success. I think this specific version of the DLINK is whack. Has anybody had experience with OpenWRT on this router? Should I just get something compatible? It's a perfectly good router, been in use for years but I'm looking at making my home network a tad bit elegant.
