Trying to keep a Gateway/router out of landfill

Hi, I have a NVG578LX/NVG578HLX that my internet provider told me I can just throw away. As I hate how much e-waste we recently generate I have a question.

Is there a way to flash the software to something generic/open source to keep it working at least as an access point/router or anything useful :D?
