Today, we at SFC, along with our OpenWrt member project, announce the production release of the OpenWrt One. This is the first wireless Internet router designed and built with your software freedom and right to repair in mind. The OpenWrt One will never be locked down and is forever unbrickable. This device services your needs as its owner and user. Everyone deserves control of their computing. The OpenWrt One takes a great first step toward bringing software rights to your home: you can control your own network with the software of your choice, and ensure your right to change, modify, and repair it as you like.

    This device specs vs price aren’t appropriate in any way. There’s no point paying 100€ for something that only has 2 Ethernet ports, doesn’t have modern WiFi and only 1GB of RAM and an older CPU.

    Besides the whole title and movement is a but misleading because the guys from Banana Pi shipped multiple boards already that are built for OpenWrt and have things like WiFi 6 in that price point. One of them is the “Banana Pi BPI-Wifi6 Router” for 60€ and more expensive the Banana Pi R3 that that just makes a lot more sense.

    No love for Turris? They’ve basically just added an easier web management UI alongside lUCI and their devices are specifically designed to run OpenWRT. Also they’ve sent a fair amount of patches to upstream (search the OpenWRT git repos for authors with @nic.cz email addresses)
