As of the release of 14.9.1, Speedify supports OpenWrt, the open source router operating system. There is an easy to use script that installs and configures Speedify correctly, which you should probably use.

The speedify package installs a GNU libc-compatible runtime if one is not present and the luci-app-speedify package installs Nginx if not present. Installing a GNU libc runtime should not break existing packages. The Nginx web server is installed to secure our local WebSocket API. Installing Nginx may break packages that depend on uhttpd.

Speedify on OpenWrt currently supports x86_64 (Intel or AMD) or aarch64 (Cortex a53 or a72) CPU architectures. Support for MIPS devices may arrive in the future.

The speedify package has been tested on a variety versions of OpenWrt from 19.07 through 23.05. The luci-app-speedify package has only been tested on OpenWrt 23.05.

The majority of our testing has been on for the Raspberry Pi 4 and 5, and the BananaPi R3. Other devices that have supported architectures should work, and we would like to hear if you have any issues.
