It is possible but only after upgrade to Gargoyle or OpenWRT (alternative firmware) - https://www.gargoyle-router.com/downloads/images/ar71xx/gargoyle_1.8.1-ar71xx-generic-tl-wa860re-v1-squashfs-factory.bin

I gave you file with alternative firmware (gargoyle). You have to upgrade by System Tools->Firmware Upgrade
