#OpenWrt One: A Repairable #FOSS Wi-Fi 6 #Router From #BananaPi

Source: https://news.itsfoss.com/openwrt-one/

Built with user control in mind, the OpenWrt One is designed to be open and unbrickable, with a switch to separately flash the NOR and NAND portions of the flash memory. This allows anyone to recover their router quickly, even if one of the #firmware partitions is corrupted, enabling easy flashes and unmatched customization potential.

Banana Pi and OpenWrt’s One/AP-24.XY Router Board Hits the Market

Two blue coloured rectangular shaped routers standing next to each other. Left one has a label on it saying One, and a USB-A and a USB-C port. The other shows three antenna jacks and two Ethernet ports at the front.
The MediaTek MT7981B (Filogic 820) SoC is at the heart of the OpenWrt One, paired with the MediaTek MT7976C dual-band WiFi 6 chipset. The device supports WiFi 6 with dual-band capabilities, offering 3×3 and 2×2 MIMO configurations for enhanced wireless connectivity.

In terms of hardware specifications, the OpenWrt One is impressive. It boasts:

  • 1 x 2.5 Gbit WAN port and 1 x 1G bit LAN port for high-speed wired connections.
  • 1 GB DDR4 RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and efficient data handling.
  • 256 MiB NAND and 16 MiB NOR storage, providing ample space for firmware and user data.
  • An M.2 SSD slot allows users to expand storage further.
  • A USB 2.0 Type-A port for peripheral connectivity.
  • A mikroBUS expansion port opens up many possibilities for adding sensors, transceivers, and other modules.

It is a router but does not contain the usual switch array of 5 or 7 Ethernet LAN ports. So it will likely need to be supplemented with a network switch device for many.

Open source OpenWRT is already quite powerful router software, and along with all this hardware capability, this device looks really interesting. Because of OpenWRT’s involvement, it likely also means that there will be excellend support for features, and that it will receive ongoing support for quite a while (likely much better than Asus and other OEMs provide).

A €57 router from ASUS did the job that $240 router could not do

Took 30 minutes to configure and setup the WiFi, VPN, DMZ and filesharing system on it and the speed is significantly higher than others.

I am kind of nervous, I have a Netgear Nighthawk AC2600, R7800 that I want to set up as router for the apartment to stop using the wifi from the internet provider and use a VPN.

To my surprise, it seems that it only has an incoming VPN support and can't function as client VPN. I have to install a new firmware on it which makes it really scary.

It was almost 2 decades ago I did anything similar and I am really nervous!

My #ISP has been cranking up the #network speed recently. Over the past few weeks, my decrepit old #router couldn't handle it any longer and kept dropping the connection and then resetting. It was very frustrating. Happily, they've sent a new one and things are back up and the connection is looking solid again, with the added bonus that the speed is nearly three times as much I had been getting previously.

“Operation #DyingEmber was an international effort led by #FBI #Boston to remediate over a thousand compromised routers belonging to unsuspecting victims here in the United States, and around the world that were targeted by malicious, nation state actors in #Russia to facilitate their strategic intelligence collection,” said Special Agent in Charge Jodi Cohen of the FBI Boston Field Office. “The FBI’s strong partnerships with the private sector were critical to identifying and addressing this threat which targeted our national security interests here and abroad. This #operation should make it crystal clear to our adversaries that we will not allow anyone to exploit our #technology and networks.”
