If someone is interested in open hardware running openwrt, also check out Turris.

I have been using them for years and I'm really happy. I recently bought the WiFi 6 upgrade kit for both of my turris. They "recently" released their latest version which is expensive but comes with WiFi 7 and 2.5 Gbps RJ45 and 10 Gbps SPF.



Are you certain this is running OpenWRT? As in, can I get a OpenWRT build and flash it to the router and have it work?


They maintain their own fork and they say that they contribute stuff upstream (not sure how much, though).

Last time I checked (a couple years ago), it seemed that I could use OpenWRT but I would lose some functionality (was it the FTT maybe?).


The Turis Omnia runs a derivative of OpenWrt. They provide a custom UI with an option to switch to LuCI. It's easy to flash it to upstream OpenWRT, which is what I do.
