An upgrade from OpenWrt 22.03 to OpenWrt 23.05 is supported in many cases with the help of the sysupgrade utility which will also attempt to preserve the configuration. A configuration backup is advised nonetheless when upgrading to OpenWrt 23.05. (see “Upgrading” below).

The OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. It is a complete replacement for the vendor-supplied firmware of a wide range of wireless routers and non-network devices. See the Table of Hardware for supported devices. For more information about OpenWrt project organization, see the About OpenWrt pages.

• ipq40xx EA6350v3, EA8300 and MR8300 require tweak to the U-Boot environment on update from 22.03 to 23.05. Refer to the Device wiki or the instruction on sysupgrade on how to do this change. Config needs to be reset on sysupgrade.

• OpenWrt 23.05.4 was signed with the wrong signing keys. The keys from OpenWrt snapshot were used for OpenWrt 23.05.4, OpenWrt 23.05.2, OpenWrt 23.05.0 and the release candidates. A later OpenWrt 23.05 service release will use a different key.

As always, a big thank you goes to all our active package maintainers, testers, documenters, and supporters.

Have fun!
