I bought an Asus RT-AX53U, it was the cheapest WiFi 6 router with openwrt support

I've been happy with Asus & TP-Link using openwrt. I'm curious about the Bananapi ones but it could be a hassle & what I have now works.

Does openwrt has dual wan support? I'm considering to try openwrt on my asus router, but I currently use its dual wan failover feature.

Of course it does, anyway it's normal Linux, so it does everything desktop Linux does, you gonna be of course limited by your device hardware capabilities like RAM or storage, so maybe you won't be able to deploy a kubernetes stack on your home router but it'll be doable on a more capable device running OpenWRT like an RPi, PC or NAS;-)

This is exactly what I need. Thanks!
