      CarTFT and MiniPC have the jetway sold out.

            Why? He is just using it as an access point? - unnecessary complication

              For sure Good question at all, perhaps you see it from a different side and owns another
              point of view. But if I can get DD-WRT on a device I would be even prefer this compared
              to the original firmware of the most WiFi routers and/or WiFi APs, related to the rich number
              of functions, the given options and the rich feature set, my point of view.

                Both DD-WRT or OpenWRT allow usage of VLANs which may be very useful. Factory firmare doesn't.

                  I have everything setup and running. 61ºC is the normal temperature, I'll post some statistics when I have time ;)
