Hi,

For some devices the install and upgrade images are the same, if that's what you're referring to from the openwrt wiki.

Keep in mind that the WiFi is not supported in OpenWrt due to the lack of open source drivers, so if you're using the WiFi on it, staying on Tomato is probably best.

Best Regards
Nils
