I have tried to use Turris software but ended up migrating to vanilla OpenWRT. It works really well since the 18.06 release, even the cellular modem is supported just fine.

You do lose the ability to roll back using BTRFS snapshots and automatic upgrades though. Also some minor stuff (like nice rainbow LEDs) is not supported by the stock kernel.

Side note: the cellular modem runs Linux:

May I ask: why did you migrate back? Thanks.

I needed a package that was not available in Turris. Something to do with the cellular modem, as far as I remember.
