I have TP-Link TL-WDR4300 https://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/TL-WDR4300.html that is MIPS32 74Kc AR9344 SOC with 8MB on-board flash and 128M RAM that successfully boots to multiuser mode using very old FreeBSD 11-CURRENT. I stopped trying it because its USB support was pretty unstable leading to random panics or just hangs and 8MB are not enough for my purposes without extra USB storage for packages and I could not even fit FreeBSD 12 base system to its internal flash due to siginficantly increased code bloat and ENOTIME to deal with troubles.
