I have a TP-Link router and I want to try OpenWrt on it. Have other people tried this? How did it go? Is it difficult to revert if it doesn't work? I'm nervous because it's my main router.

I am currently using openwrt on a router, although my roommate did most of the setup. The interface is very detailed and it has every feature I've thought to look for, but certain things are organized in a way that makes them difficult to find. It's very customizable. All in all a similar sort of experience to a lot of other FOSS apps.
