You can run an older version of OpenWrt on them, but there’s no real point. These things don’t even support 5GHz WiFi.

I've got a few devices that only support 2.4 B/G. They're not in common use, but using an equally legacy router is the only way for them to connect.

Device with very nice design. I still keep it as decorative even when its a brick.
