High brick risk. A bad flash, unlock, or downgrade can permanently disable the device. Read the specialist guide for this exact model and firmware before you touch it.

How-to

How to

Flash OpenWrt (or Padavan-ng) via vendor web UI, recovery/TFTP or serial per the OpenWrt Table of Hardware page; some Xiaomi models need a stock-firmware exploit or Breed bootloader first.

Follow the specialist sources linked on this page. If this path is a jailbreak, unlock, or flash, the specialist wiki is the how-to — we do not copy those steps here.

Notes

Padavan is built on the ASUS RT-N56U/MediaTek SDK, not on OpenWrt.

Check the exact hardware revision on the label before flashing.
