The WebThings Gateway does support OpenWrt if the router is beefy enough (decent app processor, RAM, and flash). Most cheap routers wouldn't work. If you are a savvy OpenWrt user see: https://github.com/openwrt/packages/tree/master/lang/node-mo...

The Turris OS that runs on Omnia is a customized OpenWrt build that lets a user plug a USB memory stick (with the Mozilla WebThings Gateway image, and only that image on it) into the Omnia, hold down the reset button until the 4th front panel LED lights, let go, and wait until it installs and the "WebThings Gateway XXYY" SSID appears. Then connect to it and proceed with the setup process. Suggest other hardware to potentially support on Mozilla's Discourse "iot" channel. Or the mozilla-iot/gateway repo on github.
