OpenWRT support on GL.inet devices seems to be complex. The following is my understanding of the situation.
GL.inet have an OpenWRT fork on GitHub https://github.com/gl-inet/openwrt This is what is installed on GL.inet devices.
The OpenWRT developers in due course try to work out how to port mainline OpenWRT onto OpenWRT onto GL.inet devices.
Yes. My experience with the gl-inet device I have was that initially the fork was good enough and when the company didn't update it much anymore, it was very easy to reflash the device to a main-line OpenWRT version. It's now working great with the latest mainline version despite being quite old already.
This seems to have worked for the older devices, but I don't know about the newer devices, for example far as I can tell the "Flint" doesn't have mainline support despite being over a year old.
