- OpenWRT launches a wireless “unnecessable” centered “safety”
- Double band Wi-Fi connectivity guarantees fast and reliable Internet access
- Open source firmware guarantees that there are no locking or obsolescence risks
OpenWRT has officially launched its first dedicated wireless router that promises unique security protection.
Developed in collaboration with Banana Pi, the OpenWRT One is specifically designed to meet the needs of computer pirates and safety users.
Available for only $ 89, the OpenWRT One promises to offer a long -lasting, open and flexible solution for users who value control and safety in their network hardware.
The OpenWRT One works with the Mediatek MT7981B system-on-chip (SOC) system, admits Wi-Fi 6 of double band with the Medatek MT7976C chipset and offers 2×2 2.4 GHz and 3×3 5 GHz of wireless connectivity. For cable connections, the router includes a 2.5 GBIT WAN port and a 1 GBIT LAN port, ensuring fast and reliable access to the Internet.
In terms of storage and expansion capacity, the OpenWRT One presents 128 MB of SPI NAND and 16 MB of SPI or Flash memory, with additional storage options through a 2230/2242 NVME PCIE 2.0 slot. It also includes a USB 2.0 type A port to connect peripherals and a USB Type-C port for energy delivery and serial interface, providing wide options for customization.
The friendly design with the hacker of the router includes a mechanical switch for the starting selection between NAND and Nor Flash, as well as an expansion slot of Mikrobus for additional hardware accessories. Continuously compatible with FCC, EC and Rohs standards, the OpenWRT One is built with open source innovation in its nucleus.
According to Openwrt, which distinguishes Openwrt one in addition to other routers is his dedication to being open and safe. Freedom Conservancy software (SFC), a group that worked with OpenWRT in the project, says it comes with OpenWRT’s open source firmware that guarantees that it will never be blocked and is designed to be “unnecessary forever.” This means that users can experiment with different settings, flashing new firmware and making modifications without the risk of making the device unusable.
The launch of OpenWRT One arrives at a time when many older routers and network devices are becoming obsolete due to unplained vulnerabilities. Manufacturers often abandon the support of these devices, leaving users with few options that are not replacing hardware. With OpenWRT, users can continue using their existing devices flashulating open source firmware, extending the useful life of their hardware and improving security.
Many users are resorting to open source solutions such as OpenWRT, since manufacturers stop admitting older models. For example, D-Link recently refused to stop critical security failures in more than 60,000 NAS devices, effectively making them electronic waste. In contrast, the OpenWRT is designed to avoid these problems, giving users peace of mind that its router will remain safe and usable in the coming years.
