An ImmortalWrt (OpenWrt fork) variant targeting MediaTek MT798x family routers, providing a full embedded Linux firmware build system with additional device support and patches. It lets users compile custom router firmware images on a GNU/Linux build host.
Use cases
- build custom firmware for MT7981/MT7986 routers
- flash OpenWrt-style Linux onto MediaTek Wi-Fi 6 routers
- turn a cheap MT798x router into a self-hosted gateway
- add non-upstreamable patches and extra packages to router firmware
- set up a router with Chinese-market optimizations
- maintain a fork of OpenWrt for specific SoC boards
When to choose
- you own a MediaTek MT798x router not supported by official OpenWrt
- you want ImmortalWrt's extra packages and China-specific optimizations
- you need to build and customize firmware images yourself
When to avoid
- your router is supported by upstream OpenWrt and you want long-term upstream support
- you need a stable, vendor-supported firmware for production networks
- you cannot run a Linux build environment with ~25GB disk space
