It's all Linux under the covers, so there's probably far less reinventing than you think. The kernel is the least of your issues. Try finding a halfway decent network management daemon aimed at routers that handles v6 potentially all sorts of tunnels, properly integrates firewall routing qos etc. ___ Cerowrt-devel mailing list Cerowrt-devel@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel

Am I remembering correctly? otherwise it sounds like a nice device for the price. The IPQ8064 from Qualcomm might become more FOSS-friendly over time, Qualcomm seems to be going in the right direction, but right now it's fairly closed down. So no, I don't see this platform as a short term make-wifi-fast development platform, at least not without getting Qualcomm onboard and working closely with the project. If I understand correctly, we have both the packet accelerator (closed source) and the ATH10K wireless (closed source) to contend with. -- Mikael Abrahamssonemail: swm...@swm.pp.se ___ Cerowrt-devel mailing list Cerowrt-devel@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
