GL.inet are not using openwrt from factory. You can see in many forum threads. It's a custom one, sometimes derived from vendor SDK, like qsdk. I have one very nice small router from them, which can run mainline openwrt, but this is not always the case

I ran into this after considering upgrading my hardware (WRT3200ACM and friends can't upgrade past 22.0.2 due to a "broken mv88e6176 switch." https://openwrt.org/releases/22.03/notes-22.03.3#mvebubroken...

But the Flint model (802.11ax) is using Qualcomm's hacked up OpenWRT: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/gl-inet-gl-ax1800-flint-users-di... Sounds like it'll be a while.
