 ===== OpenWrt support =====
 Supported since v23.05.4.
-n.b. Only known to work with "U-Boot version-618(Aug 13 2020  14:15:09)".  Appears to not work when newer vendor firmware is installed "U-Boot version-632(Dec 30 2021  17:14:57)" - see https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/16889
 ===== Installation =====
 See commit: [[commit>?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=06cdc07f8cc703ef7dcb3e7b329b9abff0806a6e]].
+Note that when booting from the network (tftp boot), there is a race with the watchdog during early boot.  This can result in the device resetting before the kernel starts.  You may need to retry the boot several times before a successful network boot.  The same issue does not impact booting from flash, so that once OpenWrt is installed, there are expected to be no further problems.
+===== Known Issues =====
+The watchdog issue reference above also impacts booting from flash.  The device will eventually boot because it will reset and then automatically retry, but this may lead to length boot/reboot times.  Tracking issue:  https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/16889
+Cable testing is supported on eth1 (physical port GE1).  TDR data collection does not currently work, a WiP patch is available via this issue: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/17077
 ===== Hardware =====
