Hello,

I have a TP-Link WA901ND v3 and have to reboot the damn thing 5-6 times every day as I lose WiFi connectivity, I'm ready to drive the car over it.
Is there an OpenWrt fix?

My Web GUI shows this

Firmware Version:
3.16.9 Build 141030 Rel.47420n
Hardware Version:
WA901ND v3 00000000
If there is a fix, is there a guide?

So it's not really supported, if I search the database I can only find:

TP-Link TL-WA901ND v1.x
TP-Link TL-WA901ND v2.x

Not

TP-Link TL-WA901ND v3.x

But in the downloads I find:

openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wa901nd-v3-squashfs-factory.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wa901nd-v3-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

So do I leave it?

Or if I should is the process:

1.) Put stock firmware on WiFi access point
2.) Install openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wa901nd-v3-squashfs-factory.bin
3.) Use a cat 5 cable and then install openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wa901nd-v3-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
4.) Go to the new DDR web gui and configure usual settings?

Thanks

This is not openwrt forum. DD-WRT and Openwrt are different firmwares. If you ask for Openwrt support please go to their forum.
