Wi-Fi via OpenWRT drains a lot of battery on a smartphone. How to be?

Good day.
I noticed that at home the phone began to sit down three times faster. For a long time I could not understand what had happened. I thought that the cellular network operator had done something or the battery was dying.
But then it dawned on me - I just changed the firmware on the router (TP-Link TL-WR841ND) from native to OpenWRT. Got into Google and found several of the same sufferers. The problem is old and apparently unresolved. The bottom line is that for some reason the router does not allow the smartphone to fall asleep normally, which is why it sits down. Examples:

I tried changing frequencies and other settings, but to no avail. Have any of you experienced similar problems? Is it somehow solved?

I wouldn’t show off, but my WAN port burned out, and I could only reassign it to another port with OpenWRT

Easily.
Go to the IPTV settings (if there is no such item, then update the firmware), select the port, for example, by default there is port 4, save. Everything, now 4 is no different from the WAN port. Good luck.
