Friendly reminder that OpenWrt exists, and is probably safer than the stock firmware in any consumer router.

From a quick look, I see that at least one of the affected models has official OpenWrt support: the RT-AC68U

I thought OpenWRT doesn't support modems due to licencing issues.
So, I guess you would need a separate modem, or ISP router in bridge mode, or double NAT with OpenWRT being DMZ
