Also, the data usage the guy is talking about is easily visible through any third party firmware or with add ons available with those firmware, but let the prosumer chasing types go overboard with something that will not offer much more but will cost 3-4x what these cheapie routers with OpenWrt or DD-WRT are capable of. Now I'm not saying Ubiquiti is junk. It does offer a lot more than what OpenWrt could, but I see so many techie wannabe dad types that spend so much time, money, and resources on things that yield them zero benefit. Meanwhile, the granny next door who barely knows how to run a fax machine is running a 15 year old D-Link router that hasn't received security updates in 10 years and hasn't been hacked. Shoot, I have a relative who's a doctor who had this kind of setup for years before moving to a generic mesh system, and believe me, he's not setting up VLANs, managed switches, and multiple SSIDs to "secure" his network. I don't even know if he knows if his old D-Link router has WPA2 security, or what that even means. His bank account seems fine, probably better than most of the people here who are obsessed with "security" with 10 different VLANs and firewall rules.
Anyway, this E9450 isn't OpenWrt compatible since it's a Broadcom device. It looks like DD-WRT supports this, but not 100% sure how good it is. The E8450 apparently is a great OpenWrt router. The flashing process is a pain, but once that's done it's supposedly great. I regret not buying the 2 pack combo on eBay recently.

Assuming you have no intention of going back to factory firmware the directions to convert to UBI and install OpenWRT from factory Linksys firmware is as follows:
1) Login to the router. Go to ADMINISTRATION > FIRMWARE UPGRADE
2) Make sure your router is at least on Linksys Firmware Version 1.1.01.272918 or higher
3) If running stock firmware < 1.2.00.273012, upload flash the UNSIGNED INSTALLER image: openwrt-...-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery-installer.itb
Otherwise, if stock firmware is >= 1.2.00.273012, upload flash the SIGNED INSTALLER image: openwrt-...-mediatek-mt7622-linksys_e8450-ubi-initramfs-recovery-installer_signed.itb
Downloads are at https://firmware-selector.openwr
4) After flashing the router will automatically reboot after flashing.
5) Login again, and upload the openwrt "sysupgrade" v24 or higher file and Uncheck "Keep settings and retain the current configuration"
6) Router should automatically reboot and your done.
7) All future upgrades should only need "sysupgrade" for "Linksys E8450 UBI"
I can't use strongswan vpn app on Android (IKEv2 EAP). It won't connect to vpn on my galaxy phone. It works like a charm on my Netgear WiFi5 router. What gives? VPN passthrough is enabled.
Linksys app won't even find the router. So can't use the app for better router configuration. WebGUI is not that great compared to my Netgear gui interface.
