Techdata: TP-Link TL-WR840N v6

This device is NOT RECOMMENDED for future use with OpenWrt due to low
flash/ram.

DO NOT BUY DEVICES WITH 4MB FLASH / 32MB RAM if you intend to flash an up-
to-date and secure OpenWrt version (18.06 or later) onto it! See 4/32 warning for
details.

1) This device does not have sufficient resources (flash and/or RAM) to provide
secure and reliable operation.

This means that even setting a password or changing simple network settings might not
be possible any more, rendering the device effectively useless. See OpenWrt on 4/32
devices what you can do now.

2) OpenWrt support for this device will end after 2019.

19.07 will be the last official build for 4/32 devices. After 19.07, no further OpenWrt
images will be built for 4/32 devices. See OpenWrt on 4/32 devices what you can do
now.
