ISPs will have to start requiring the OEMs to offer some form of ongoing software maintenance, rather than just the rare bug fix on a distribution that otherwise dates to when the SoC inside first taped out. I can't imagine the OEMs or the SoC vendors being willing to do that kind of maintenance in-house, but the large ISPs certainly have enough leverage to require upstream support in OpenWRT. |

In a choice between mandating people rent their routers, or pushing vendors to offer patches, I wouldn't bet on ISPs picking the latter.
