[Q] Is there a way to install v2ray/clash on Asus Merlin?

[bartimeaus]

I understand that there is an unauthorized chinese fork of merlin with built in clash/v2ray support.

However I'm would rather not use this fork. Is there a way I could get clash installed on official merlin?

Failing that, how should I backup my merlin firmware for restoring if I really have to try the chinese fork?
