The Asus RT-AC65P router is identical with the RT-AC85P, but better to make separate images for it.
On both routers the installation can be done also via SSH:
Note: The user/password for SSH is identical with the one used in the
Web-interface.
1. Complete the initial setup wizard.
2. Activate SSH under "Administration" -> "System".
3. Transfer the OpenWrt factory image via scp:
> scp openwrt-ramips-mt7621-asus_rt-ac65p-squashfs-factory.bin admin@192.168.50.1:/tmp
4. Connect via SSH to the router.
> ssh admin@192.168.50.1
5. Write the OpenWrt image to flash.
> mtd-write -i
/tmp/openwrt-ramips-mt7621-asus_rt-ac65p-squashfs-factory.bin -d linux
6. Reboot the router
> reboot
