Yes, libreCMC can be flashed to this router, but the process is a bit 
involved (more than just using a web-ui). I thew some rough
documentation [1] together, but it needs a little bit more work.

If you choose to take the plunge, make sure that you use the factory
image [2]. After flashing, you will need to do the following:
 
1. Log-in to the web-ui (192.168.1.1)

2. Set an admin / root password

3. Enable forwarding :

   * Network -> Firewall

   * Forwarding is set to : Accept
   * Input : drop
   * make sure that the wan interface has the same settings.

4. Setup wifi (under Network -> Wifi)

The above is not extensive and may not work with some configurations.
