You did check to make sure one of LEDE, OpenWRT, Gargoyle, DD-WRT, Tomato, etc. firmware supported the model you bought if for no other reason as a backup plan first before purchasing right? If not and you are IT person like most on this site no sympathy. Yes I understand the manufacturer should be providing something fit for purpose but then the political winds aren't exactly blowing that way these days. Custom roms/firmware are often your only chance of getting security updates much too soon after purchase.
